1/4. Hey! Look at this. It's not just a string of words. Not arbitrary sentences. It's AI-speak. You know it when you see it—not just with your eyes, but with your mind's ears. Short sentences. "Not this, but that" statements. Just like this. You see it everywhere, right?

Saying “both parties are the same,” especially now, is a terrific way to let others know you are an ignorant buffoon.

Sorry, but if you are running for office, and you use AI-slop graphics instead of paying a human graphic artist, you are really showing your ass.

SAME. Get the fuck off Substack people, if you have any sense of decency. "Oh, but it's where everyone publishes now" is no longer acceptable. There are alternatives.

FUCK. THIS. FUCKING. SHIT. ENOUGH!

Just saw someone lionizing the use of a bot as a copy editor because it can spell and punctuate and apparently understands grammar, though no evidence was supplied. Cool. That’s about 23 percent of copyediting.

Outside smells like the inside of a dive bar in the ‘90s.

@rontowski.bsky.social incredible show! LOVED the tarot readings!

I am at MaGoofy’s. Could not resist the weird lure of tarot plus comedy. www.magoobysjokehouse.com/shows/364601

OK, It's that time. <slams hand on the desk> Tell me ( and others) about your dope TTRPG!!! Include links.

Tom Homan is a Chuck Jones villain.

Come shut my mouth, Tom. I dare you.

They should rake the forests better in Canada, I guess. Anyone who says, "Drill, baby, drill" or denies climate change should be dropped in the middle of a forest fire. If they somehow manage to escape, toss them in a flash flood in Texas.

If you are not a right-wing shitbag, you are apparently a "communist," according to right-wing shitbags. Make no mistake: This is a concerted effort to dehumanize people like you and me who care about democracy, the planet, and our fellow beings. www.thenerdreich.com/why-trump-ke...

I was so tempted to step inside, but I know better than to f with the fae. 🍄‍🟫

WATCH OUT COMMUNISTS ARE EVERYWHERE!

MAGA Texans: "Help! We are drowning!" Also MAGA Texans: "Climate change is a hoax!"

Scoop: The AI music generator Suno was hacked. Hacker shared source code that shows how the tool was made and part of the music and podcasts that were scraped to create it. Decades worth of music, lyrics, and podcasts from YouTube, Deezer, Genius & more www.404media.co/hack-reveals...

Reporter: "Speaker Johnson, since we are standing here being consumed by fire after an enormous asteroid struck the U.S. this morning, do you have any thoughts on how citizens should avoid fiery deaths?" Mike Johnson (as flames consume his pants): "Sorry, what meteor? I've been busy."

“Communism” = “Anything we don’t like”

How many more children are going to have to watch their parents get executed on American streets by ICE thugs?

And gulags in the sky

BREAKING: I just got a call from John Barron. He said he’s hanging out with Mitch, eating hamberders and talking about the importance of the SAVE Act.

MAHA: Make America Have Assplosions

There's a nice warm seat in hell for people who terrorize children and deprive them of their parents.

Let’s call it MAGArrhea

If you see any MAGA folks clutching their pearls about how we respond to Lindsey Graham's death, just send them this:

I was sunning by the pool when the boxes arrived. And here in my hand is my life’s work: “The Nerd Reich: Silicon Valley Fascism and the War On Democracy.” Coming 8/18. Pre-orders make a huge difference! Make a fascist sweat—pre-order today! www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ne...

The people behind this belong in prison.

Sudden influx of new followers. Where y’all coming from?

Botanica Chango, Baltimore.

Yes it is, Mr. Natural. Yes, it most certainfuckingly is.

I guess I’m weird because I don’t like it when the president of my country addresses the leaders of our allies the way an abusive father menacingly addresses his children.

The sheer injustice in Houston is sickening. Lorenzo was just going to work to support his family when his life was stolen by ICE. Seeing his father on his knees, consumed by raw, agonizing grief, is a heartbreaking reminder of the human cost of systemic violence. He deserves justice.

Quick reminder that in typical years, extreme heat kills more Americans than all other so-called natural disasters…combined.

Mitch McConnell appeared to me in a vision. "This is the water and this is the well," he said. "Drink full and descend. The horse is the white of the eyes and dark within."

ChatGPT posters and flyers are polluting real life and driving me insane. Please respond to this with the worst ones you've seen irl. I'll post some in the thread www.404media.co/we-are-livin...

Mitch McConnell is in my radiator. "In Heaven, everything is fine," he sang to me.

I rolled up to Mitch McConnell’s a few hours ago. He said, “Let me in, I want to be your friend, I want to guard your dreams and visions.” Then he wrapped his legs round these velvet rims and strapped his hands ‘cross my engines. Just a scared and lonely rider, that Kentucky fuck. Huh-huh! 🎷

As the World Burns

I wish my cat could tell me whether or not he loves jazz, but since he can’t, I’ll just continue to believe that he does, in fact, love it. Here he is digging Brubeck.

Schrödinger’s McConnell

The tribunals cannot come soon enough.

Trump is now using his platform to attack kindergarteners because they are Muslim

Had to turn off an NPR story about the Revolutionary War because the host kept leaving out the “t” in Britain. She kept saying “Brih-en.” This glottal stop plague may end up making me a recluse. PRONOUNCE THE DAMN Ts, people!

Here's to all seekers of the Mysteries.
