MARTENZILLA 🌃🔥

Yeah I'm thinking I'm gonna drive to the hardware store through the unplowed ice sheet roads risking injury or death to myself or others so I can ask the employees about door knockers

Stuck closing at work with absolutely no customers in the store, because of a bad snowstorm I can't even sit around and look at my phone for the rest of the night because my manager is closing too

This feeling

Vote for the cool candidate 😎

I'm the birthday dog, I'm the existential dread dog I'm the combination birthday and existential dread dog

this has become a very important video to me

What a great headline

Got to love how much praise NYT gets for one article, 2+ years late, that literally just rehashes things we all knew already but NYT has spent the last 2 years ignoring & denying & obfuscating.

The Smiling Friends go to a furry convention.

"Under the guise of technological inevitability, companies are using the AI boom to rewrite the social contract — laying off employees, rehiring them at lower wages, intensifying workloads, and normalizing precarity. [...] AI is not the cause of the layoffs but their justification."

Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced. Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

I swear there's like a one week window around the end of November/start of December where I am guaranteed to get sick every single year like clockwork 3 years in a row babyyyy here we go

"Is it ready?" "I don't think..." "Did I hear it's ready??" "... let me check..." Mustelids are not the most patient creatures on earth. -- I feel like using traditional media again lately. I guess I needed a change.

I like how full text search of every book and human thought ever was a SOLVED PROBLEM in 2001, and now dicks at search engines and my own phone – a piece of silicon faster to respond than God was ever imagined in scripture – prevent it from working, _as a retroactive infantilizing design choice_.

In the coming months there will be a massive bailout for AI firms. No crumbs will be left for any but the already obscenely wealthy. The coffers for everyone else will be empty. And democratic leadership will tell you this is all for the best. The alternative would be worse. These will all be lies

It is very hard to dismiss the fact that senate democrats caving was an intentional gift to Donald Trump. He went to the Supreme Court trying to starve 42 million Americans and we all saw it. And as people fought that, they caved. They are not merely collaborators but wolves in sheep’s clothing.

Mood

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

is it good when the dems in the house of representatives start calling for the senate to be abolished

Be careful, there is a new scam going around. If you see a wooden box filled with food, DON'T GO IN. A wall will fall behind you and you'll be stuck.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

Somebody turned on that stupid "Cops" show on our break room TV or whatever it's called What kind of pathetic loser do you have to be to want to watch that shit?? Just a disgusting show for disgusting people

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk
