The narrative is that AI is here and we have to accept it. But we don't. We do not have to accept it. We, as hiring managers, as consumers, as anyone along the spectrum of business, we can just say, "nah". But its up to us to do it. "No, I'd prefer a human experience." Thats what it takes. -S

Its pretty amazing to me that AI has had the success it has had. People generally hate artificial/fake things. Why is this different? People, you are engaging with fraudulent...crap...Its crap. Generated crap. Not unique, not quality, not rare, its garbage. CRAP.

🚨🚨Episode 157: A Wealth Of Knowledge has released🚨🚨 Join Scad as he delves into Jon I from ACoK! Libraries, new recruits, Targaryen History that nobody asked for, & a crow with a crush! Join me as I tackle chapters at random to keep this series alive in my heart! www.podbean.com/eas/pb-cgfqi...

All of you moms out there, have a great day!

I'm sorry...does this mean anything to anyone:

I'm braver than you. For Star Wars day, I am watching Caravan of Courage... ...may the force be with me. -S

Next chapter has been randomly selected!

My fave black and white movie? Its my fave movie....Casablanca.

Live view of Scad watching Eraserhead for about 60% of the film. I feel broken...I know Lynch is weird but, I dont even know what to feel after watching this film.

Sooo..I posted this in the early morning. Reposting it now. If it isnt showing up in your podcast feeds normally, please let me know!

This is a high quality response!

don't make jokes about someone shooting me while i constantly generate photos of me armed and threatening to kill millions like a badass

Oh man...I did a thing. scaddy.podbean.com/e/episode-15...

King Charles came over...cool. Or whatever. - S

It wasn't "plainly for no reason", nor idle boredom. He did it to distract from the Epstein Files. We've been more vigilant than usual (this usually works better for him) but it has largely faded from the narrative. Also, he has now used another gambit to make it fade more...the Ballroom initiative!

I don't think this is anything surprising, but it was nice to see this acknowledged after 30 minutes of berating CoPi:

Its important to remember that even though things don't quite go our way sometimes, its good that people are trying!

See the thing about gerrymandering is...its stupid. Just take a vote. Whatever % of the vote is in column A is represented by a # of reps reflecting that percentage. Whatever % of the vote is on Column B is represented similarly. Third party? Great! They get represented too, if they get enough votes

Shocking. Fucking shocking. Almost as if what the experts said would happen actually happened. Fucking shocking. Sometimes maybe..just maybe we should trust experts instead of swindlers. - S

"No matter where you release them, they will always return to Ithica!" "What if you release them in Ithica?"

This is a dance off. If you see this, repost a dance or you're eliminated.

Honestly the whole planet would benefit if everyone could watch Dont Look Up to conclusuon. And then, think for 5 minutes, and then come to their own conclusions.

This community is strong. Like all communities, we have tragedies. We have challenges to overcome. We will. But please protect each other. This is a discovery of acts abominable & unforgivable; a discovery that must be shared & protected against. Find your friends, find your comfort. -S

This may be controversial. I encourage anyone who is looking forward to the upcoming HBO series covering The Knight of the Seven Kingdoms to instead just read the books again. The series won't surpass your already established love for Dunk, nor his egg. Acknowledge that what we have is enough.

I loved covering this book with A a-ron. Give it a listen if you love star wars!!!

Robert's not dead, he's just pinin'. Pinin' for the Redfjords. - S (yes that took me all day...)

Hey Friends, Scad here. I am guesting with LG of @radiowesteros.com at 5pm ET on her LG and Friends series. I am very excited to talk about these books again. I think it has been almost three years since I got to talk asoiaf, I'm so grateful. Check out the stream! www.youtube.com/live/D7ejsti...

Witnesses Assumed Charlie Kirk Shooter Was Just Ordinary Gunman On School Campus

Aaron! You gotta tag me for reskeet! I was in this and it was fun! Kicking off a 9 book run with myself and @katdel.bsky.social and @rebelj.bsky.social

I just...I have a lot of anger...at things.

sometimes we don't know if this is what the people want but we do know this is what the people need so we keep doing it

This South Park episode is just fantastic...

ISRAEL IS STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH ISRAEL IS STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH ISRAEL IS STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH ISRAEL IS STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH ISRAEL IS STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH ISRAEL IS STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH ISRAEL IS STARVING CHILDREN TO DEATH

You know, I’m starting to think Israel is not interested in a two state solution

Every single one of these dems voting all this shit through need to be primaried. Every one. Bottle up that Mamdani secret sauce and let's fucking move left. Please. "We can't do anything, they have votes..." Who cares? Make them fucking wear all this stuff on the party line. Do something!! -S

It is hard to find. But if you look on YouTube for DUST; Other Space, you might find it. It is amazing sci-fi comedy. A favorite of mine. Including Karan Soni and Milana Vayntrub. It takes a minute to gel, but it is fantastic. About done with my rewatch...but it was very hard to find!

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

This is a fascinating history that no American with a traditional education would ever know about, that details the origins of a politician that everyone should know about. If you read it...everything about him makes sense...just read it.

I dont know why, but an incredible urge to watch Civil War (not the Marvel one) on the eve of the 4th. No idea why.....an odd urge.

"I sat in an air-conditioned room and ate candy. Four stars." -my review of every summer movie

trump should’ve been in handcuffs in jan 2021 and there is no way to quantify just how much human suffering will result from the disastrous decision to slow walk his prosecution or even avoid it altogether

Is it just me or does the Man in the black mask on Squid Game slightly resemble Elon. Except, y'know, much more handsome and likely not a complete douche canoe.

The media expects Americans to think, "oh, ok, we only targeted sites that were nuke centers...that seems ok..." but would ANY American, politician or otherwise, think, "Oh, Iran only bombed the military compounds w/nukes outside of Salt Lake...that seems ok.."? Nobody would think its ok.

They could ... IMPEACH him.

I missed that Jeff Bezos sold the Post to Donald Trump directly.

This was the Episode I of military parades. - S

We had five kings here once. It was awful. #NoKingsDay

This looks like an 80s comedy where John Belushi & some stoners steal a tank for shits & giggles

This is all a distraction from the fact that the 2 dumbest, whiniest, most repellent pieces of shit are also the 2 most powerful men in the world and the system was specifically designed to facilitate that
