Oh, you can't write a 5-page book report without AI? I fucking wrote 5-page book reports without having read the goddamn book. Get your finger out of your ass.

Look, plantar fascitis sucks but I think this guy has bigger issues going on

"Where USDS and 18F prioritized function, accessibility, and the needs of underserved populations, the studio’s mandate emphasizes beauty, delight, and the visual language of consumer technology. The distinction is not trivial ... "

Apropos of nothing, intentionally shitty photoshop will always be better and funnier than any AI

Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.

let me say this again: come and take it

Bitch I will beat your ass

I’m not proud of it but if Forrest Gump started talking to me on a bench I’d have left

People are asking ChatGPT things I would normally just ask a friend, parent, mentor, therapist or medical professional for or about. It takes work to build and maintain those relationships, and figure out who is the right person to ask, but the alternative is a digital tool known for lying to users.

Again: for any big liberal donor who wants to funnel millions into fixing this country's politics, the ROI on buying any struggling paper and simply tasking it with doing real reporting on local news is vastly higher than the same $$ given to some group that does mass ad buys every election year.

Oh shit, THAT'S WHERE STRINGER COMES FROM

Sitting here imagining Bjork as the most whimsical death doula ever...

Chaka sad...

No, fuck you. You don’t get to suddenly decide that copyright matters when folks suddenly have access to the source code of your spicy autocomplete due to your own incompetence.

If you're in LA today or tomorrow, artist Shepard Fairey is giving away free #NoKings protest posters at his gallery (and the posters are free to download, too): obeygiant.com?id=99231

If you use GitHub (especially if you pay for it!!) consider doing this *immediately* Settings -> Privacy -> Disallow GitHub to train their models on your code. GitHub opted *everyone* into training. No matter if you pay for the service (like I do). WTH github.com/settings/cop...

This has sparked a lot of good conversations w/ friends today. My fellow open source friends, if you're anything like me you'll read it and think "Holy fuck! Did they write that just for me?!?" (hat tip: @ipstenu.org) kennethreitz.org/essays/2026-...

I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.

I do not like this gen AI I do not like what it implies I do not want it in my art I do not think it makes you smart I do not want it in my games I do not like its goals and aims I do not want it in my books I do not like the way it looks I do not like it, I don't care I do not want it anywhere

You know the rule youtu.be/jPCJIB1f7jk?...

Just listening to your coconut radio after being shipwrecked and then Sweet Georgia Brown starts playing...

Sometimes you read something and it completely flips the script on how you see things...

What a rare thing it is to witness joy these days

Suburban wine moms will really be like "you believe in voting? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, firebombing a concentration camp" and then very effectively firebomb a concentration camp

Obviously this is who we have always been, that is a given... but the fact that people who did not know that are out here, protesting for the first time, in actual tears? They have lost complete control of this narrative, man.

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

one of the greatest human triumphs of my lifetime is the relentless, unceasing, heroic effort by DECADES' worth of doctors and scientists to find a cure for a disease much of the world didn't take seriously for years because it predominantly affected a community they thought kinda deserved it

I'm very fortunate that when I was young and knew everything, social media didn't exist the way it does now, so a lot of my blustering and bad ideas floated off into the ether. Eternally grateful for that.

If I was a bigger redneck I'd build this for my front porch...

Hey fellow creative folks. I hope we can collectively forgive ourselves for maybe not getting the running head start January was supposed to be. We’re doing the best we can in the times we live in and it is ROUGH out there

Please don't scold people for being shocked at the depravity of people in power. Yeah it's not new, but shock isn't a sign of naiveté, it's a sign that one still has a conscience. You can have long known what power does & still be shocked when elite rapists protect each other, or ice shoots people.

Lauren Hutton in the horrible 80's movie Once Bitten.

ICYMI, it's only okay to carry a gun to a protest if you're Kyle Rittenhouse.

I don’t know how much longer we can be expected to live alongside the lie that this is not exactly what it looks like: a violent siege, meant to destroy people. The lie makes it even more destructive.

me at 15: the Dead Kennedys are right about all of this. me at 30: this is all real nuanced and there’s a lot of moving parts here. me at 45: the Dead Kennedys were right about all of this.

Bus Thread is a load-bearing pillar of the site now, I’m sorry

I have always wanted to have a neighbor just like you, I’ve always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you. So let’s make the most of this beautiful day, Since we’re together we might as well say, Would you be mine? Could you be mine? Won’t you be my neighbor?

This is Ellie... she is at the Cincinnati Zoo as an animal ambassador

Generative AI will never be as fun as shitty photoshop

a non-zero number of pasty-faced ICE goons who are fully ancestry dot com-pilled about being like .0002% Irish will have their day sincerely, authentically ruined by this knowledge, and that makes it so beautiful to me

Air this everywhere. EVERYWHERE.
