A ton of feelings about this man, his work, his provocations, his importance. I do hope he’s okay; it seems evident he’s not.

Both totally unnecessary and extremely funny that the Guardian has an interactive graphic for you to change the color of the US flag's blue to the color of the Reflecting Pool from 8 to 19 June and counting

reject AI, embrace dogshit graphic design your dirtbag friend made for his shitty band

As I just heard someone comment: He has actually failed at surrendering.

We can't even make self-sustaining bases on Antarctica (normal atmo free for the taking, ample radiation shielding, lots of ice water, much cheaper freight costs per delivered ton) and all that would be much easier than any off-planet location. Check out the Biosphere 2 failure.

The #BirdOfTheDay theme by @alan678.bsky.social is #Black, birds with mainly black plumage. Alt is #Moments, a capture you consider to be an interesting moment. This raven couple was having a cute moment, sitting on top of a water tower, watching people.

I do love that AI inadvertently confirms that our brains work like a muscle, too — use it or lose it. In this way relying on AI is like using a robot to lift weights, like running a marathon in a Honda Civic. You get nothing out of it.

I would like for no-reply to stop emailing me

The Mist (2007), dir. Frank Darabont.

I call Elon Musk a Nazi because he's an avowed white supremacist who undermines democracies, incites pogroms, targets minorities, intentionally caused the death of >750,000 people (so far) while laughing about it ("feeding USAID into the wood chipper"), and did a Sieg Heil at Trump's inauguration.

This is not subtle at all.

this is what i mean when i say ai is a rhetorical technology. functionally this is a tool for *justifying deportation*, not a tool for assessing age. when someone is pitching an ai product, don't ask them what it's supposed to do. ask yourself what it's supposed to justify

If there's one thing US institutions are good at, it's abdicating responsibility for structural problems by framing them as individual failings. Think blaming: -"Bad apple" cops for the broken carceral system -"welfare queens" for the threadbare safety net -"angry feminists" for fertility declines

Everyone shut up I finally got a video of Jyn doing her cartoon snoring thing

NO is one of the most critical words every decent human being needs to use in this age of fascism, "A.i.," ICE, anti-trans bigotry, eugenics, and billionaire propaganda. NO. Refuse to participate. Refuse to buy. Refuse to agree. Refuse to even smile and nod politely. Say NO. All the time.

Margarita, mid-twentieth century, origin disputed. The drink probably predates the name as it is simply a tequila daisy made with lime instead of lemon. #tequila #margarita #NaCl
