A beautifully poetic headline from hell. What are we doing.

This is my favorite button I've ever seen on any website.

A summer love song

This one is for the amusement of the Disney Parks weirdos (it is official). I'm not even a real diehard but it sparked joy

too soon

I really love it when an artist I follow gets insanity levels of obsessed with [thing they like] and will not stop drawing it. It's so very charming. Go girl give us one billion drawings of that little freak in your head who I know nothing about. He's my blorbo in law now

Is Bluesky fritzing because X announced posting limits, because that would be fairly funny

PSA

It may be specific to my feed but I keep thinking Anne Hathaway has been cast in a live-action Gundam movie

I really want @justinmcelroy.bsky.social to commission @thoughtographic.bsky.social for something it just feels like it should happen

Hmm new migraine halo style unlocked: angry vibrating snake. Interesting

THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS!!

“That’s why the students are booing, I think. They’re experiencing AI in realtime as a forecloser of futures; as the cruel new face of hyper-scaling capitalism, as the prime agent moving a world that’s become a deck stacked against them.” — @bcmerchant.bsky.social really nails it, as usual

My latest newsletter is about why the fatal flaw at the heart of generative AI isn't just the economics, but the fact that it's deeply uncool and hated. www.whatwelo.st/p/generative...

Not in the best headspace but that just means this $9 gachapon that's meant to go on bike handlebars is really paying off in mental health benefits

This brought me joy.

Hey so if you're in the USA, the FCC is floating the idea of making shows put a warning up if they include or discuss trans people and trans lives. A short paragraph saying this is messed up would help a lot! You gpt less than a week. Submit your comment by May 22: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...

I don't know if anything can be more clear. I recently described to my mom... the only way to think of this administration is as a criminal syndicate. Do they use white christian supremacy and fascism as their tools? Yes. Do they weaponize believers? Absolutely. but it's all about the $$$

Every sign tells a story.

The Eisners celebrate the excellence of human-made comics and comics-related works. Emphasis on "human-made". Thus, we must say no to any works made with gen AI, and encourage a full and complete ban on gen AI in these awards and our industry at large. Sign the petition: c.org/b9sRPVR6H8

Paleoart is popular enough sciart to get attention from AI bros. But the most important fact remains: it's still a *small niche*. The models don't have enough data to pull from. The results are super easy to point to the OG artist the bros stole from. ->

I have, regrettably, confirmed that I'm quite allergic to Pop Century's "signature scent" (guess it's a good reason to wash, uh, everything)

It, uh, doesn't seem that hidden actually

I met this fellow on the way out of EPCOT today and had to get a photo. He hand-cut all of this (not 3D-printed), it goes all the way around. So cool. Nice dude also!

This is Ground Control to Major Tom You’re doing real cool shit Everyone down here saw you do moon kickflips And that sweet space ollie, that was real legit

Okay, "Disney in my veins Jesus in my head" is a new Disney World shirt fashion iteration I have never seen

On the eve of Nakba day, the great catastrophe in the history of Palestine in which more than 700,000 people have had to flee from the Israeli colonists almost 80 years ago, you should at the very least support a game that will tell this historical event which the west wants you to forget.

HELP? So, the gold-standard podcasting app seems to want to highlight my show pretty soon, but I need a whole bunch of artwork that I can't make because I don't have photoshop Is there anyone who might be able to help, for a reasonable fee, so I don't have to buy PS *and* do a crappy job myself?

Heard two entirely different people telling their families that they had so much fun being with them today. How wholesome. What a kind thing to do.

we all need to be

California-based artists and creatives, the California government is asking for public input on AI's impact on our work. Please fill out this survey, it'll just take a few minutes: join.engaged.ca.gov/en/projects/...

“he’s the kind of guy who would go snorkeling at Pearl Harbor” sounds like a hyperbolic insult you would use to convey that someone was particularly dead inside and the other person would laugh because the premise is obviously so ridiculous and yet!

Overheard at EPCOT: "Why would there be a Canadian princess, that doesn't make any sense"

Subnautica 2 launched 20 minutes ago. Safe to say Krafton will be forced to pay out the $250 million bonus it tried very hard (via advice of ChatGPT) to avoid paying

I am not worried software is suddenly going to decide it wants power over humanity. I am worried about what people who already have power over humanity can do with that software.

sometimes people need to know it's still worth fighting for something even when you know you're going to lose

Official leniency for whether it's rude to do a video call on a bus if the video call is a small child very excited about the outfit for their dance recital

Hey do I know any smart folks who have any clue why Gemini just started talking on my mom's Pixel? We did NOT ask it to start, or say Gemini, and as far as I know it was disabled.

Decided admittedly last minute that I really need to get to Orlando, especially given my AP is about to expire. Was this wise? No idea. Did I get stressed enough yesterday that I tripped my old heart issue, and really need to go for a very long walk? Definitely

Please, for the millionth time, check sources before sharing something especially news that feels extra upsetting. Even if “it’s technically true” doesn’t mean we need to see it edited in the most fear-inducing way possible without context.

Really redeeming the reputation of the Ford Pinto, which is a feat

Too much despair these days and not enough Despereaux, the brave mouse armed with a sewing needle

Technically I am just fine living life with only one adrenal gland, but some days it sure feels like a tiny Fiat struggling to get up a steep hill

Zoog Disney came up for me today, and now here is this episode, so it is a sign that I and everyone else should go listen to this

I told you this place is always crowded, we should’ve called for a reservation 😩

Yall ever catch yourself just muttering song lyrics? It happens to be "if hope is not the answer, then maybe I misunderstood the question... because there must be some way, there's always some way," ("Black Hole" by Aqualung)
