GNU, on the eve of the battle for Ankh Moorpork. May Anoia rattle your drawers in solace.

This is probably the most surreal way to learn an elementary school classmate is now a senior WH correspondent…

I asked my cat Otis, and she said I'm not allowed to go to bed until we sell 11 more shirts because that will get us to a nice round 200 (which will be 18% of the way to funding our fall bug mural project!!!) So idk, I think you need a shrimp shirt. Get one at SquidFacts.net

the fuck it will

Hate this!

Photo of the Day: Bornean Orangutans - Let's snuggle with Mama All photos on the repository are free-to-use for artists creating derivative/transformative works (sans AI).

Any time you use AI you are telling people three things: 1) you don't respect creatives or their work 2) you're okay with theft 3) you can't think for yourself

The world is terrible, but at least there are a baby capybaras. I’m hoping to bring joy (and free non-AI art references) to folk by photographing a fresh litter of capybara in a couple weeks. Help me make it happen, please? I promise so, so many cute photos for your eyes to feast upon.

Living in the PNW has taught me exactly how important respiratory protection is during fire season. I have chronic respiratory issues that makes symptoms of exposure more clear, but it is dangerous for everyone and holy shit. You do not want that in your lungs.

come on man.

Been annoyed by this for forever, even put it in my Securities Regulation slides

Many people get this wrong! The correct word for putting your body in a horizontal position is "lie." The past tense of that is "lay." What you never get when you point this out is "laid"

🚨New preprint and our results are rather concerning.. We find the "boiling frog" equivalent of AI use. Using large-scale RCTs, we provide *casual* evidence that AI assistance reduces persistence and hurts independent performance. And these effects emerge after just 10–15 minutes of AI use! 1/

feeling like you want to try and reduce human suffering today? even if we, as an individual, can’t do everything we wish we could, we can do more than pretend everything is fine—wear a respirator and break some denial today.

I asked for sexy sketch suggestions/ideas, and was inundated with a barrage of requests for a sexy frogfish. Like I think 95% of the people I interact with on here were asking, nay, DEMANDING a sexy frogfish. So here, a freakishly sexy frogfish that will keep you warm on cold nights.

If you’re only anti AI until you benefit from it personally, then you’re not anti AI.

HASTINGS: I say, Poirot, this vial’s labeled “hyaluronic acid”! Is it a poison? SKINCARE HERCULE POIROT: Non, mon ami. This acid, it replenishes the skin’s barrier naturale HASTINGS: So this is a gal who takes care of her skin. SKINCARE HERCULE POIROT: *irritated* The gentleman may use it as well

It's International Fact-Checking Day! Here's an old article from me about why we generally stink at fact-checking and the important role that professional fact-checkers serve in the information ecosystem. theconversation.com/why-you-stin...

Oh my god, the alt text is a gift. 😹

I promise I will make you proud

Amusement park hack: if you present the special rat token at the end of the night, they'll let you entangle yourself with the rat king that rolls around the park, collecting trash and any parkgoers who might be trying to hide there after hours.

I’m always excited when there’s a new @davidjroth.bsky.social piece about something buck wild that just happened.

Oh wait a minute, I also have a book up for preorder at B&N that does have a cover! If you are a The Magnus Archives fan I hope you will consider picking up THE LIBRARY OF JURGEN LEITNER! It is about a very nice and safe library filled with good people. :) www.barnesandnoble.com/w/from-the-l...

I've been DREAMING of ducklings at this pond since I got into bird photography, perfect for at water level. There are a fair bit of non migratory mallards, but I never heard a report of any ducklings, I assume due to heron attacks. Until Saturday. Worth the wait. 🪶 🐣

Boston to Eastern WA, by way of Georgia, Tennessee, Colorado, Arizona, and then turning north in California. I don’t even know how many miles that ended up being except more than straight coast to coast. Then drove back via Montana and NY months later.

Great interview, horrifying information coming out of it. These AI companies are truly shameless about how they’re stealing from creators and so blasé about destroying the creator economy.

Almost got the sun 😊

I was so psyched to get a chance to catch this behavior on camera! I've seen clouded leopards descend trees like this before, but being able to go back and look at the muscle usage and strength brings home what a feat it is to not land on their face - and even catch prey while doing it.

This project was inspired by the incredible art community on Tumblr… and staff just decided to screw over every creator on their site with a new, terrible update. Like always. Please consider boosting the Repository photos & information to help compensate for the loss of visibility there. Aaarghh.

friend, this is Marcus Junius Brutus CAESAR has declared himself DICTATOR FOR LIFE and MUST BE STOPPED can you rush a donation of ten denarii today to show that you STAND WITH THE REPUBLIC?

I love automatic door buttons that require you to get so close to press them that you get hit when they open. A+ design.

Niche, but I really wish all zoos/aquariums/museums would do this. I’ve been hit in the face by bird barriers & trapped in so many aviaries when using an electric scooter, plus every secondary fence is at the eye level for a sitting adult. Can’t stand to see? Too bad.

Beautiful sunrise Mola mola often lay on their side at the water surface to sun themselves and warm up their bodies, earning them the common name "sunfish". I was thinking about them a lot at 2 am the other night which spawned whatever this is. #molamola #sunfish #fish

i just think if you're biggest critique of AI is about copyright you're telling on yourself. AI surveillance could end human liberty as we know it AI decision making threatens permanently bake systemic racism & patriarchy into every aspect of society "you stole my song" is just... idgaf man
