Periodic table by lickability :) (by Reddit user: u/Wellihol) Note: this chart is in some cases possibly dangerously inaccurate. e.g. Elemental Calcium can cause fire in the presence of water. So, for any elemental licking experiments, take with a pinch of Na Cl

We tracked down the superyacht owned by the world’s sixth richest man. Larry Ellison won’t like what we did to it 🛥️🏴‍☠️

Oh, the irony!

Sam Altman: ‘If I Don’t End The World, Someone Far More Dangerous Will’

Twice. >_<

No matter how much it's talked about, it's still not talked about enough that the Supreme Court agreed to hear a case on whether the words in the 14th amendment mean what the words in the 14th amendment mean.

Artemis II, Nasa’s first crewed lunar rocket in more than half a century, prepares for launch – watch and follow live

Think about this: A retired game show host may end the world as we know it. Only a master satirist could write this scenario, but Mark Twain is dead.

Trans people existing has no negative impact on your life, you whiny shitheads.

Oracle laid off 30k employees Tuesday to fund its AI data centre biz. Employees across the US, India, Canada, and Mexico woke up on 31 March to termination emails from "Oracle Leadership" with no prior warning. thenextweb.com/news/oracle-... amn that is brutal. i think good days for IT jobs over

you can read any business tweet with "with AI" the same as "with cocaine" it's the same attitude

if you're a gamer you should know that the gaming industry has a disproportionately large number of trans people in it. and not just recently. even in the 80s, we had influential trans game designers. one that's always inspired me is danielle bunten berry. wikipedia: share.google/0lrnn3RqISvL...

“Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us all the best opportunity for growing into the healthiest of people.” ~ Fred Rogers March 31st is the International Transgender Day of Visibility. Our transgender and non-binary community members need and deserve to be seen, supported & safe.

AI boosters and fence-sitters think viscerally negative reactions to AI are "irrational" but mass deployment of LLMs is actively destroying everything I care about (the open internet, the planet, creative industries, art, my ability to buy RAM). Total rejection is the most logical response.

lol somehow Bluesky introduced something more unpopular than ICE

Do not live in constant fear of being wrong. Don't berate yourself for erring. You may regret past mistakes, but a true warrior knows that if you learn from them you may one day be grateful that you made them.

Frog A Little Turned On By Avocado

okay so AI is absolutely cratering imminently and I need all of you to PROMISE me you won't take the high road, and will laugh and rub it in their faces as much as possible. I need you to laugh and go 'WE TOLD YOU SO, BITCH" at every opportunity, PLEASE be extremely mean and ruthless

story of AI batshit crazy Microslop in two pictures 🤣 they missed browser and mobile devices era and now they started force feeding the AI slop to everyone thinking that it will be the chance of lifetime but guess what? it backfired. i am surprised it is only down 31%.

I think we need to celebrate the death of Sora a bit more. This is a technology that, just MONTHS AGO, we were being told was going to literally destroy Hollywood and Disney was going to give them a BILLION DOLLARS and NONE OF THAT EVEN REMOTELY HAPPENED

Best railcar graffiti I've ever seen

If this doesn't sum things up perfectly, I don't know what does.

WAR DON'T SEX CRIMES HIDE CRIMES

This is the dumbest thing ever. It’s like saying baseball is a thinly disguised contest to see who can score more runs. Yes the objective of the No Kings rally is to motivate people to vote the wannabe kings out of power. It isn’t disguised at all! What’s wrong with you that you think that’s bad?

A protest is meant to be a threat to incumbents: You keep this shit up, we'll kick you out. But if there's no vote that goes with the chanting? They're not required to care.

"But AI uses em dashes and semi-colons and figures of speech, so you can't use them in your--" Let me stop you right there. I don't give a damn what AI does. It will never impact the way I write. Ever. Nothing is less relevant to me than generative AI "writing" tendencies.

Remember: you don't "write like Ai". Ai writes like YOU. You were here first.

Recently I got a letter from the mom of a kid I met when I did an appearance at a bookstore in Moscow, Idaho a few years ago. I apparently inspired this kid to make her own comics. It was beautiful. Apparently I can never set foot in that state again.

Folks sharing the Western Journal article about an interview with Andy Weir: WJ is a right-wing rag, and the quote being attributed to Weir about “wokeness” is taken from the person interviewing the author, not Weir (it’s right in the text). The title is rage-bait. Don’t fall for psy ops.

Hugs you

Again. Fixing, again, what that bastard broke. And then, of course, getting lambasted for not having made greater progress. Again.

I mean, sure, officially it's called PRESSA. But I prefer to think of it as... SOCKTOPUS. Because it can dry eight pairs of socks. c.c I've had one for years, but mine's dark gray, which doesn't seem to be available right now. www.ikea.com/us/en/p/pres...
