Uh… check out what ChatGPT allegedly told a man before he killed his mother and then himself. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Meg sent me this and said, “‘I’ll proceed accordingly while you go fuck yourselves’ should be your email signature.” 🤣

There would be ten of them and I would watch them all at least actually

Smith has released a statement on the resignation of Rebecca Schulz and has appointed Grant Hunter as new Minister of Environment and Parks. Yup. That Grant Hunter. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

The final Calvin and Hobbes, which appeared in papers 30 years ago today.

“This could look like a user asking how much ibuprofen to take for a headache receiving a promoted ad for Advil in the chatbot’s response. Meanwhile, actual results on correct dosage may be brushed to the side, or buried under a mountain of ad text…”

Wanna see real-life miracles? Fund scientific research. A team of US scientists just cured Alzheimer’s in mice — and there is now hope that the disease can be reversed in humans. futurism.com/health-medic...

I said chatgpt doesn't have a soul and got put on this list

Heated Rivalry is the greatest propaganda campaign ever in celebrating queer rights at a time when the USA is threatening to undo them. Canada can say “fuck that” to the USA’s hatred of all “others,” and we can make our identity stronger by celebrating everything the USA fears.

*taps my book wild faith* as noted in literally the first chapter, the Satanic Panic never ended, it just took a nap for awhile this shit about daycares is literally just the 1980s warmed over. can we bring back cool hair instead of christian vigilantism www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/talia...

Trump Asks JD Vance To Research Whether President Allowed To Kill Vice President https://theonion.com/trump-asks-jd-vance-to-research-whether-president-allowed-to-kill-vice-president/

Trump guys are about to Comet Pizza every third daycare center because they think they are all fronts for Somali money laundering. They're only doing this near cities with progressive mayors. This is straight up Government by LibsOfTikTok.

My turn! Accidentally pregnant Poppy joins a local stitch n bitch in search of knitting lessons and emotional support... and is reunited with the charming, butch clinic escort who was there for her when it felt like nobody else was. www.harlequin.com/shop/books/9...

Terms I'd like the media to leave behind in 2025 : "non-consensual sex" (It's rape. You mean rape, so say that. We don't call bar fights 'non-consensual boxing' for a reason!) "underage girls" (Girls are a category on their own. If you mean girl, say girl. If you mean woman, say woman.)

May I recommend one last entertaining holiday binge? All real stories - told by the real subjects - reinacted with great Hollywood talent. Produced by Danny McBride. www.imdb.com/title/tt3374...

Trump commuted the sentence of a convicted healthcare fraudster who was serving 20 years for a $1.3 billion Medicare fraud scheme, one of the largest in U.S. history, and that person has since been arrested again on new criminal charges.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

“I stopped watching when Rick left.” I have died DEAD. RIP, me. 😵😂

As someone who often conducts fieldwork in remote places, I find it really irritating that many basic applications now require an internet connection to function.

Man @ardenthistorian.bsky.social, I thought we covered bad readings of Tolkien with Palantir. This is... a choice.

China is getting rid of retractable door handles, while the EU is getting rid of essential controls hidden in touch screen menus. The world is healing. ♥️

It's incredible to me that so many people didn't see her as an obvious engagement bait huckster from the very start.

Welcome to the thrilling Quarterfinal round of the 2025 Headline of the Year contest! (🎆🎆) Mostly proceeded according to seeds, but second seed Resolved and Unresolved had a close scare with the Drunk Raccoon. Let's review the results so far:

Thank you, New York Times. I too agree that The Onion had the same level of cultural impact this year that Sabrina Carpenter did.

Coincidentally, JD Vance's good buddy and CPC MP Jamil Jivani is currently kneecapping Pierre Poilievre, and will be hosting a town hall in Calgary with Danielle Smith in Calgary before the CPC leadership convention at the end of January. It's all connected -- Jivani is turning on Poilievre.

She was convicted FIVE TIMES for racist speech. Fuck her. CONVICTED.

"Last year, we found that you could increase strawberry yield by 18 per cent under solar panels compared to strawberries in an open field. This agrivoltaic crop yield bump has been shown for dozens of other crops and solar panel combinations all over the world..."

The old joke is that Americans are the people who will come to your country, burn your villages, kill your children and then 20 years later, make a movie about how it made their soldiers sad 😐

The US "banned 5 people from entering the country because it doesn’t like their speech. This ban, according to the State Dept, is necessary to protect free speech. If that sounds insane to you, congratulations on your reading comprehension." Good piece about something bad, by @mmasnick.bsky.social.

This is exactly what I was saying would happen. You take a society with a population this size and run off it's working age population with anti immigrant bigotry, you kill the industries your tariffs don't.

Might I suggest a new cheezy holiday movie with top tier actors? www.justwatch.com/ca/movie/tin...

I think I may switch back to Candy Crush for screen time during the remaining holiday break.

This is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).
