Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

This guy deserves much more harsher treatment than impeachment.

I kicked out (and canned) the (blueberry-earl grey) jam, motherfuckers!

I now see that I got a text alert about it yesterday, but a bunch of fighter jets in formation just flew over me on a random Tuesday morning. Why the fuck is there just a fucking military flyover of the White House (which is visited yesterday and is half gone and completely blocked off and weird)?

Good news: If you would like to watch Ricky Jay and His 52 Assistants on YouTube I have done a painstaking 4k upscale of this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0gW...

The show i went to tonight had a secret weapon of great shows: a dog. His name was Ernie and he was a very good boy. #ShowDog

As a person who has experienced a coma and is diabetic and thus has an intense relationship with sugar, the term "sugar coma" is so weird and wrong. Please don't use it. You sound dumb.

How many times did I scream "fuck you, bootlickers" at pathetic losers in camouflage costumes while going to the post office? 3. Just a Wednesday afternoon in suburbanish Washington, DC. Just fucking assholes in army costumes standing around. I guess they are approved by someone and get paid.

I like having a beard because I haven't shaved since 2012 and shaving is annoying and razors are expensive. Having a beard is annoying when I have a cold (as I do now) and various stuff collects in it.

People with experience: please give food banks *money.* They can make it go much further than you can. Grocery shopper 1: I’m going to donate whole pineapple cakes in honor of my grandma. Shopper 2: did you say canned beets? “Shopper” 3: here’s this opened box of cereal my kid didn’t like

Lovecraft is so weird because he’ll write the most cosmically intense scenarios with the sickest vibes and then you realize it’s a metaphor for being terrified by an Italian he saw crossing the street

It is extremely funny that these doors ran up $23,000 at that hotel across Hiawatha Boulevard from the mall. What a tasteless trash thing to do. I cannot explain the degree to which this is the least cool thing to do in Syracuse. And that's a low bar. What dweebs.

every day is a big opportunity to learn about a slightly different kind of nazi

I have a lot of things to say about this. Mostly that it's great. IMP staff should have been unionized v Long ago & that management there are awful. I worked towards it, then they fired me for ridiculous made-up non-reasons that a union would have stopped. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

A dog just showed up at this show i volunteered to help with 2 days ago and ended up being the only person running! His name is Otis! He came up to me and leaned on my leg for like 5 min! #ShowDog

Whenever I see a dog carrying a stick, I always try to compliment the dog for their cool stick.

This generally seems good. Less Catholics is better (not my parents or technically me, but in a broad sense.)

Umbrellas are ridiculous, ineffective things that mostly serve to annoy everyone around you and thus are immoral and opposed to an organized society. Useless shit. Fuck umbrellas, wear a coat and hat, walk through rain.

Oh god, I just realized that the show the guy across the hall is watching with the volume so loud that it's louder than my headphones is a guy scratching off lottery tickets. (This guy also calls buying scratch-off tickets "my side hustle")

I know a weird amount about The E Street Band, have had friendly conversations with members of The E Street Band about that delivery places, have seen Little Steven live, but just kinda like Bruce. He's fine. But I love 10th Avenue Freeze-Out so much.

As a person who, as a 23-year-old, described myself, accurately, as an "ombudsman", in a knowingly silly fashion; never trust a person who calls themself an ombudsman. I was one, in effect, as a 23-year-old, and knew I was just some dipshit.

Not to get too graphic (honestly an uninteresting and not bad slip and fall thing, but having a big bruise on my ass is so annoying. I just keep sitting on it. Thats where I sit, humans and chairs are just set up like that. Being old is annoying.

You can, in fact, just do stuff. No permission needed. Have an idea? Execute it.

Yes

Shibboleth

Im currently so thankful for a variety of ice packs that mostly fit this weird bruise on my ass. An annoying ass bruise requires special icing and I have it.

Some times at 3 am, I just really like listening to Kylie Minogue. Let's not make this weird. I love house music and pop music.

This is your annual reminder that in 2005 I saw Bobby "Boris" Pickett live when he was a surprise guest at a Rocket From The Crypt show. He sang one song ("Monster Mash") and prefaced it by saying, "Elvis said this song was the stupidest thing he ever heard, but he died on the toilet, so fuck him!"

I've been trying to put my finger on why ICE/DHS lies feel so much more outrageous than normal cop lies, and I think it's because they don't lie like cops, they lie like aggressively stupid criminals

Im generally a pacifist, but i could imagine finding joy from beating up Stephen Miller. Like giving him a wedgie and shoving him into a locker. What a dork. Shoving a fascist in a locker is OK. Not really violence in the abstract. Just fun. #ShoveFascistsIntoLockers

Im so annoyed by the current fashion of people on YouTube or whatever hold their lav mics in their hands. Thats why Gene Rayburn invented that stick mic thing...in like 1963. Also, if its just one person, it works on yr lapel, dog. Mics should be as unnoticed as possible, stop foregrounding the mic.

CHATGPT: I understand where you're coming from. You worked really hard to get here, and now it's time to enjoy the fruit of your labors. ISILDUR: So I should keep it? Elrond says I shouldn't CHATGPT: The ring is precious. Sometimes friends don't have your best interests at heart. ISILDUR: true

Not to get too specific, particularly since I lack and don't really seek more information: its really annoying to bruise one's ass. I have to sit on that and that doesn't seem to be improving the bruise situation.

Regardless of gender or whatever, wearing a saxophone strap without a saxophone is such a powerful and intimidating fashion choice, in a sexy way. Maybe. It implies a saxophone. Are you John Coltrane or some marching band kid? Marching band kids fuck, though?

Still thinking about a problem solving situation i was involved in the other day. Me and another person were trying to troubleshoot a little problem on and audio mixer neither of us were familiar with...

Whatever. It'll be good when Stephen Miller dies. However it happens, it'll be positive. Some people should die.

What a fucking loser.anyone who references having a job where you murder people as "sevice" fucking sucks. And go to a tailor, you look so bad and uncomfortable. Just a dork.

this is, no exaggeration, some of the most loser shit i have ever seen in my life

Its so weird that places advertise that they make bad hamburgers. Smashing a hamburger is very basically bad hamburger cooking.

This fucker made so much money from a shitty spin-off based on the worst character from Cheers. The only good thing he's done was sound honestly injured while falling off a stage while being an asshole. What a piece of shit.

Robyn's first new album in seven years appears imminent

Some fucking dork at Compuserve made a bad joke about the file extension ".gif" in the late 80s and people still mispronounce gif. Be careful with your puns.

Have you tried ice water recently? That shit is so satisfying. You can probably just get it at the refrigerator.

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

I get it, but I want my funeral to end in a completely unhinged, drunken cover of "People Who Died" by The Jim Carroll Band, played by whoever is there.

The purr-fect map

@bafflegabs.bsky.social I forget why I brought them up recently, but I just came across this Timelords record

I don't think people recognize that I have a musical theater background. I was in a very shitty musical when I was in eighth grade. It was written by my chorus teacher. I played a sailor and had a solo in "Makin' Whoopie". That's my musical theater background. I used to sing.

Hey, FYI, yr car alarm sucks. I also hate yr car when its not honking.
