trying out a new feature, lmk if it works

I don’t know how to use chatgpt etc but I imagine it’s going to a website and typing “oh no what groceries do I buy please tell me false god for I am so weak I cannot go on” as your brain atrophies and leaks out of your ears from disuse and the machine is like “buy eggs milk bread and a horse”

Back in our old neighborhood to have my car looked at. Our old house - now without us or anyone for FOUR YEARS - is on the next block from the garage. So I brought my keys, in case I got up the nerve, to see if they still worked. Didn’t want to go in through the front door in case anyone saw me.

In the story of Humpty Dumpty it is never said that he is an egg. However, it is never said that he is NOT an egg. This means that any character in ANY story could be an egg unless explicitly stated otherwise. Keep that in mind when you read a Jack Reacher novel

A couple times a year somebody reposts this X-men/Better Call Saul gag I drew and goes lightly viral over it, and you know what, god bless

Regret to announce that we’ve reached Wrong Coat season. Every coat you wear from now til mid April will be The Wrong Coat for the weather

Not to be a bitch but after watching this video I have concluded this bird seems dumb as hell. Don’t dig around in your own torso, pull out one of your own feathers, drop it, and then look at ME like “What happened.” Like do we NEED a tall duck?

started a rewatch of the original MUPPET SHOW and daily confronting "oh yeah i used to have nightmares about this" and a long-buried sexual awakening, often in the same skit

There all is aching.

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

RIP Rob Grant, co-creator of Red Dwarf. RD was an extremely formative thing for me. My entry point was Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers, the (sort of) novelization that blended funny sci-fi with the most amazing sense of bleak nihilism.

Hey, I don't go here much anymore but I mentioned on PAH this week that I'm gonna try streaming Star Trek Voyager: Across the Unknown on Saturday at 1:00pm pacific time. If that interests you, follow me at www.twitch.tv/maggierobots

Sure.

On November 12, 1955, In Hill Valley, California, a young man vanished into thin air as a crowd looked on. One of the great unsolved mysteries of the twentieth century, the investigation into the disappearance of Calvin Klein (no known relation to the fashion designer) only raised more questions.

Love the glimpse into the beautiful mind that notated this used copy of Moby Dick I got

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head

After declining to attend Trump's State Of The Union address, the gold medalists have received a flexible invite to party in Las Vegas.

Self-loathing graffit.

snow is one of the most beautiful things that can ruin my day

I was browsing the selection of Transformers toys at Target, as I am sometimes wont to do. I came across a character I did not recognize. And the profoundly stupid thought I had was, “they can’t just make these guys up!”

I feel this so strongly. Covid was a test of our moral integrity & decency -- *not just elites, but all of us* -- and we failed. I genuinely think one reason Covid has been memory-holed so hard, & so crusted w/ myths & conspiracy theories, is that on some level we know this & are ashamed.

Remember that day-long AWS outage that downed big chunks of the Internet in December? Turns out that was caused by Amazon's in-house AI 'assistant', having been given unsupervised root-level access. Expect this to happen worse and stupider as tech bosses double down on their wild overinvestments!

Nothing wrong with a little rhetorical cursive but there's a point at which it becomes rhetorical Apple Chancery

in Canada we have a store called "Canadian Tire" and you're probably thinking "a store named after a tire definitely has a circle for a logo" but no, you're wrong. they chose a colossal red triangle

This is the latest Rifftrax and it’s genuinely a movie I would have watched and enjoyed without the jokes. The dialogue is quite punchy. The cast is charming, especially Franchot Tone, whom I’ve never seen as a tough guy but he totally pulls off a sort of Bogart vibe.

First rule of self-publishing: If there's not already a market for your book, create one.

Beavis and Butt-Head go to Silent Hill

Any chance to repost this classic Busta Rhymes moment

I beg your pardon

new Voyager game's got jokes

This picture is so crazy that if you had this as a scene in a made-for-TV dystopian scifi movie in like 2014 people would switch channels because you’d ruined the suspension of disbelief.

The UK arrested Prince Andrew. Hakeem Jeffries is telling Democrats not to boo Trump at the State of the Union.

Jeez, Ken. Live a little.
