Wait Bluesky has a head of comms? That none of us have ever heard about or from?? LOL yikes

Odin’s grandfather experienced a remarkable new beginning when he was licked free from a salt-encrusted slab of stone and ice by a primordial cow. And we’re lucky to have Icelandic manuscript SÁM 66 help us visualize this special event. #wyrdwednesday

Is anyone else aware that quite a few Mormons believe that Bigfoot is actually the biblical Cain, cursed to wander the wilderness for eternity as punishment for killing his brother Abel? Apostle David W. Patten claims to have met him in the 1830s while camping in the woods around Paris, Tennessee.

I’ve always loved this photo; it looks like he’s having a deep, soulful conversation with an undead skeleton warrior.

I was compiling data on witch burnings, as one does, and stumbled upon an important truth

Football is soccer now

Two guys playing jazz-infused krautrock as if DFA1979 listened to Can high on shrooms and decided to dress as a pope-version of their moms. It sounds *exactly* like that. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ssi... This is what the world needs.

Any new zombie media that doesn't include a scene of cops brutally and reflexively murdering zombies without even knowing there are zombies, is zombie media for cowards.

/14 I retreated to my chamber. The monkey was sullenly contemplative. My fellow guests were still out. They returned after midnight — five large boisterous Swiss unsuited for indoors, drunk as lords and singing incoherently. The monkey‘s eyes narrowed. I think it sighed. This was not the first time.

Had the great pleasure of working on a Carmina Escobar produced video this week at Amargosa Opera House in Death Valley, with the fabulous singer Astrid Hadad! Love this older video that booms through who costume art! Our other component was the movement performer Oguri. Incredible experience 💗

/15 Ritual abuse and deliberate humiliation are baked into the American criminal justice system and approval of it when the defendant is an enemy is a cancer on the American soul. Have a nice day.

For a brief moment, we really did live in the future

the bus is divided on calling the police

Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1961: “Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God’s children.” Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1967: “The evils of capitalism are as real as the evils of militarism and evils of racism.”

Data story: Bigfoot Migratory Patterns! This one is just for fun. The Bigfoot Field Researchers Org (!! BRFO) has 3,700 ish recorded sightings; based on clusters of them near each other, I took a stab at where Mister Foot et al spend their seasons. Click the nodes for each individual story!

"We call this phenomenon synthetic psychopathology"

If you let them, the horrors will devour you whole. Making space to live and smile is an act of resistance. So is helping others to do the same. If you’re an artist in this time, remember that what you’re doing is part of the emotional support infrastructure. They want you silent. 1/2

cyberpunk status: Yesterday, agents of the police state murdered a woman while trying to use his phone to add her identity to the unperson database. Today, the guy from the phone company recommended Costco as a good source for mesh networking.

I saw this on Reddit and had to check for myself because it's so weird. If you rapidly scroll through the different foods on the realfood.gov website, it turns into a picture of RFK Jr??

If you can’t make it, email the Charter Commission at [email protected] & tell them to REJECT the attempt to strip our powers. INSTEAD, APPROVE our 6 recommendations. bit.ly/lacontroller-charter

claude code is fucking insane i know literally NOTHING about Hegel. ZERO. and it just built me a complete system of German idealism

I also enjoy that they renamed Remote Desktop to Windows App and the Windows App is available in the App Store for Mac where the tab title becomes "Windows App App - App Store" apps.apple.com/us/app/windo...

“we used tools validated for assessing and reducing human anxiety (see Methods). The term is used metaphorically to describe GPT-4’s self-reported outputs on human-designed psychological scales and is not intended to anthropomorphize the model.” NOT INTENDED. TO ANTHROPOMORPHIZE. THE MODEL.

An *actual* very hard problem in AI, is that you literally do not need any AI involved for people to be utterly convinced they're dealing with AI. Meet Claude Shannon's machine for playing Hex, it's just a resistor mesh, no logic gates or programming involved.

Much later Einstein postulated that the universe was a 3-sphere. But Dante got the idea first: • Mark A. Peterson, Dante and the 3-sphere, American Journal of Physics 47 (1979), 1031-1035. physicsgg.me/wp-content/u... (2/2) mathstodon.xyz/@johncarlosb...

Monet once confessed he could never finish a painting—“I stop when I’m tired.” Each canvas was a moment, not a conclusion.

and if you want to know... why Donald Trump is the president It's because the Ecru measure Goodness as being able to handle snakes rather than avoid them.

Good enough means you can tolerate or are distant enough from any harm.

Data poem: Air Real time air quality index from the world’s 100 largest cities. I had to look up Riyadh and Beijing to make sure the numbers were right, I was sure I had accidentally multiplied something.

But I can see you Your bronze helm shining in the sun And there's Gilgamesh with scale armor on, baby And I can tell you and Enkidu will still be strong After the boys of Sumer have gone

JOE ROGAN: is that true? thats crazy ME: it is true, Joseph. and the crazy part is nobody says anything. no one will acknowledge that beaker is doctor bunsen honeydew's son. JOE ROGAN: wow ME: and the things he puts him through....

And as I believe I've discussed before, the word "ampersand" is a corruption of the phrase "and per se and," which means, basically, "Just fucking 'and,' all right? Nothing else. And meaning 'and.'"

Big problem with what's being called "AI" these days—it is absolutely, unambiguously better than humans at recognizing subtle and complex patterns. And because of this, humans are incapable of foreseeing how it will do things like become a superhuman racist.

Which is abbreviated 'MICR'. Numbers & some special characters are printed on the check in ferro-magnetic ink. They can then be fed into a reader that induces magnetism & reads the unique waveform for each character. The character shapes are /magnetically distinct/, but still *human readable*.

Brand says Shapiro should be more open to dialogue with people like Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens. "No one's better than anyone else. We're all on our knees" This is incredible
