When you are unaware of any geopolitical events

Oh yeah definitely the one thing sci fi and fantasy has been missing is the male gaze

In shocking news, settler colonial nations founded on genocide continue committing genocide.

The most predictable thing ever happened. Don't say trans people didn't warn y'all. Another proud leopards eating faces party member.

"it's giving war crime" in a southern accent is just going to play on loop in my head the rest of the day

look at the murder mittens on this boi

We all gotta dissociate in the bathtub sometimes...

i think we should be clear that just because the astronauts did not immediately declare the moon haunted, does not mean it is not haunted it may mean that the astronauts are now themselves haunted have we prepared for this eventuality and if so how

look at these little bozos

you ever feel mildly insane and just buy something very stupid about it

Josie and the Pussycats was released on this day 25 years ago 🥁

I do not use art as therapy! I use it to make myself significantly worse

Amidst everything else, the Trump regime has quietly killed off the U.S. Forest Service 🌲 “One hundred and ninety-three million acres of your national forests… just handed, on a silver platter, to the people who’ve spent their entire careers trying to destroy it.” www.hatchmag.com/articles/tru...

Sit in your floof

Aww yisss, Relic Hunter is on Tubi.

"It's not just a phase, Mom, this is the real me."

I do not take booktok seriously and I never will. What the fuck you mean the epilogue and prologue “aren’t part of the book/story”???????

i respect taking a firm stance on not engaging with ai at all but if you do that you won't see the "claude got every one of my tarot cards wrong" posts

This will destroy the great history of hiring poorly paid interns interns and making them work over the weekend to read the slush pile. (still very against AI, obvs)

Astronauts are trained for decades in some of the most physically and mentally grueling environments of any career. They’re some of the smartest people on the planet. And yet, once they get up there, Microsoft Outlook is borked. @samleecole.bsky.social reports. More: www.404media.co/artemis-2-as...

right now the astronauts are calling houston because the computer on the spaceship is running two instances of microsoft outlook and they can't figure out why. nasa is about to remote into the computer

i'm so sorry we've sent these souls to the moon and they're using outlook?

The world is stupid, but I just watched a squirrel break into a car in the parking lot below me, steal a package of crackers, and escape to a nearby tree. So at least somebody is winning.

Happy ten years to the woman, the cast, the job, the people, the fans, the what was possible, and the what was necessary; the adventure, and the family (same, same) that changed my life. What a privilege. What a ride. Wherever you are/whoever you are now: Keep going. Keep fighting. ❤️ #WynonnaEarp

every time I see this one I have it stuck in my head for a week after and I’m never mad about it

I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines. Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."

Absorbing sunshine in the lunchroom.

You ever look at your pet and get mad at the imaginary people who could ever hurt them and plan their horrible deaths.

if you don’t like the process of writing then don’t be a fucking writer, it’s not that complicated

"we hear you saying you absolutely do not under any circumstances want this AI clownslop and we promise we are working on solutions to make this AI clownslop even better so it can do even more things that you never wanted done!"

Social media has convinced everyone they have to tell everyone everything and defend themselves all the time for every small thought they have and for the love of god just keep it to yourself. You are under no obligation to post!

Color leeching is obvious and all around us.

The idea that bright, wild color is something you outgrow is a damaging lie society tells us. This unspoken rule, that enjoying intense, clashing colors makes you childish, is pure bullshit. The depression palette trend has only gotten worse because it saves corpos money. We gotta end it.

If there's an item taken from your country in the English museum that you're visiting you should get to enter for free (over 6000 Irish items in the British Museum alone btw)

Rowling: now now sssteve Rowling: there actually iss an ethical way to watch harry potter King: there is? King: quick tell me! Rowling: haven't you ever heard of Rowling: death of the author? King: oh, good point! Poe: steve, she's alive Poe: she's right here in front of you

Today in AI: Canada rejected the PR application of a McMaster postdoc from the Sorbonne who works in the immunology of aging because the generative AI being used to process applications (😱) entirely hallucinated her credentials. Everyone involved should be fired. archive.is/ELrCI#select...

if you watch or support this you're a bad person btw. i'm not arguing with you about it either

This is Cannoli. He shows up in almost every Facebook Marketplace ad placed by his human. He often overshadows the items for sale, some of which are cut off entirely. He seems mostly on board with modeling, but we're curious about his grudge against the pancake griddle. 13/10 (FB: Cassy Day)

A twenty-six-minute slideshow has become the centre of a controversy sweeping Canada’s art scene. The Walrus associate editor Ariella Garmaise reports on photographer Nan Goldin’s Stendhal Syndrome and the institutional tensions it’s exposed: https://thewalrus.ca/nan-goldin-stendhal-syndrome/
