Knowledge is the awareness that there is a cookout. Wisdom is understanding that you aren't invited to it.

My life is a mess and I am generally a disaster so right now I'm desperately wandering towards any direction that's Not Here. So hopefully that changes soon.

just unfollowed an artist because they shifted away from my interests but they seem like they're also Going Through It, and honestly I just genuinely hope they end up okay because I want the people I kinda-sorta know through the internet to be happy 🙁

I also saw a Japanese artist on twitter post a legal disclaimer image saying that nobody could edit their artwork or train AI on it or anything or they'd be fined $7,500 per infraction or something.

Truly confused by the fact that apparently Japanese artists get really made about people quote reposting them? I just. Huh?

Nothing like having a cool idea for something to build, scope-creep into an amazing idea that is overwhelming verging on impossible for me to build, becoming stressed, and failing to actually build the smaller thing because of the menace of the bigger idea I don't have resources for.

Wait you can set your discipline on notification production now? sick.

I was considering watching No Way Home to see the multiple Spider-men but I'm not sure how much MCU Spider-man bullshit I can tolerate.

Holy shit Google is advertising AI summary to "find the must-see episodes" of Stranger Things so you don't HAVE to watch the entire thing to see the latest season. I. Who is this for??? Like. What hypothetical human does this even appeal to?

Mainline superhero comics exist in a high fantasy setting that just happens to superficially resemble reality.

A salute to all the artists braving X or Bluesky or whatever their NSFW-permissive social media cesspool of choice is in on the one day they'd have every excuse not to in order to post Christmas-themed cock at the most topically relevant time.

Becoming increasingly curious about Absolute Batman. Like, yes it's comic book edge, but it also just seems like a fun twist on Batman. OTOH not sure Joker is the most interesting villain to hand Bruce's resources to.

It's the most wonderful time of the year

Amazon Music's Android app has been a godawful piece of crap written by people who evidently don't have to use it and clearly don't care for as long as I can remember but I still don't know how THIS happened.

Truly words cannot convey my hatred for the people who make decisions on Chrom(e|ium).

The speculative market around card games is a blight on the universe. Wizards should reprint all the most valuable cards in the collector's market that they've previously promised not to reprint to preserve market value just to salt the fucking earth for these soulless bastards.

Honestly my biggest problem with the weird deification of those who write systems software is not that it empowers the worst of us but that it disempowers the rest of us.

Oh are we fighting about plc again?

Okay but interdimensional black markets in the DCU/Marvel Multiverse have got to fucking insane right? I mean they obviously exist, because where there is cross-universe travel there is cross-universe arbitrage. But given how ludicrous both settings are, they've gotta tooootally wild.

not a big fan of the whole "iron man is spider-man's dad" thing

Wow Phineas And Ferb really has a ton of unironic bangers.

Okay youtube, why can't I play content you have judged to be "for kids" minimized in a side window while searching the app? What possible child safety benefit could this have?

Holy shit the metadata on BtAS on Amazon Prime is fuuuucked.

The two anti-AI arguments I hear a ton are the ethics one and the idea that it's utterly useless and anyone who finds value in it is deluding themselves. The former holds water, but I've heard of enough cases where people find AI really helpful that the latter seems like nonsense.

I think the worst thing the AI industry has succeeded in is convincing everyone that any use of ML is a waste of time

The grey ghost lives!

github issues have genres. noir detective story. police procedural. lynching. crowd of confused idiots, one sane person optional. courtroom drama. courtroom comedy. heel turn. horror movie where you slowly come to the creeping realization that the whole town is a nazi death cult.

the banning of tiktok is another painful reminder to buy physical copies of your media. i have dozens of dvds of an ai voice reading reddit comments over unrelated minecraft footage.

Of course Batman '66 is the most prepared Batman. He's a comedy character.

I love a good bourbon so I really don't have much of an opinion on this.

"Batman '66 Meets Steed and Mrs. Peel" Holy trademark circumvention, batman!

Hunter the Parenting continues to just be absolutely killing it.

Amazing to me to discover that Mr. Rogers is not well known outside of America.

It's amazing how the current administration stands against every American institution worth taking any sort of pride in. USPS, the National Weather Service, PBS...

WHY ARE THERE OFFICIAL DC COMICS NFTS IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2025

I made an offhand reference to The Cabal being a real thing in a conversation and my boyfriend just shot me a DM to double-check that I'm not a conspiracy theorist who believes in a Secret Evil Jewish Cabal or something. Honestly just shoot me now.

Jesus fucking christ.

Wonderful thing about being an adult is that nobody can stop you from buying the complete Ben 10 on DVD for yourself for Christmas. Although perhaps they should have.

Every time this experiment is tried people find new and exciting ways to break it. Never stops being funny.

Does anyone actually know the origins of the use of the modifier!noun construction in fandom? I've heard some explanations that I am fairly sure are wrong.

Developing a lexicon CLI tool solely so I can name it `luthor` That's right. Pun-driven development!

I could write an essay's worth of thoughts about atproto but that would require actually writing an essay. :-(

My vision of Idyllic Small-Town America in the DCU is just Phineas and Ferb's Danville.

Can Blumenthal just stop humiliating us on a national stage?

WHY IS THERE A NAZI PONY
