A touching tribute to Mike F

The perfect two sentence story.

Hux is even set up in Force Awakens as the biggest bad guy (I mean it's him, not Snoke or Kylo, giving the frothing villain speech before blowing up a planet).

Also, the ending of Last Jedi does not suggest Kylo Ren is becoming more evil, it suggests he's starting to get that evil hasn't gotten him anything. Hux is being set up as the final bad guy.

I loathe Rise of Skywalker, but it's not a reaction against Last Jedi (it's largely indifferent to Last Jedi). It's JJ Abrams reacting to criticism and feedback of The Force Awakens. He's calling do-overs on his own movie.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

Will one (1) reporter please ask him to name all eight wars? And then keep asking when he doesn’t answer?

My phone's photo app just told me all about it's great new ai art features

I hope that all of you have a joyous holiday season surrounded by your family and loved ones*.

*Except for ICE. I hope no one talks to you or gives you a present and that you accidentally shit your pants while everyone tells you to go fuck yourself at the grocery store.

Had to explain Ea-Nasir to my therapist

and so does the absolutely toxic idea of policing disabled people… to protect disabled people.

i can’t imagine what kind of mind can put those 2 thoughts together without lighting on fire

Ranking star wars movies is complicated because there are certain themes that resonate with-- no I'm kidding, in one of them an ewok hugs Han Solo's leg and says "Ay Chihuahua." So that's number one with a bullet

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

this AI shit is not gonna break me. I am still a writer and I'm still gonna write shit and it's gonna mostly be "just OK" workaday prose elevated by my little poetic flourishes but it's gonna be something only I could write. and maybe I won't even do anything with it, but it will exist

Happy Thanksgiving everyone, let’s hear your anti- AI arguments that felt like they worked on your uncles

This how I find out I have a son??

[P] Okay, I found what I think is the font for this—ShelleyScript LT Pro, slightly stretched and with a small outer stroke. (In green here overlayed on the original image)

Now then, what to do with this newfound toy...

photo of a sign outside the door of the Oval Office, reading "The Oval Office" in gold bullshit script, made out of three sheets of paper

Close-up image of the same sign

[P] Found a higher-quality photo; IT *IS* TAPED UP SHEETS OF PAPER!

You can't prove to me that's not three 8.5x11 sheets of paper taped to the wall

OpenAI monetized the Eliza Effect, and doesn't care if it kills people

I’d like my passport and driver’s license changed to say I’m 22 inches long and 7.5 lbs, please.

And why exactly is the sex at birth, as opposed to their sex now, at all relevant to identifying, say, a fifty year old woman on DOCUMENTS THAT IDENTIFY HER.

I had blue eyes at birth. You know what my driver’s license says? Hazel. Because they changed, and one is useless for identifying me.

Tonight's episode of #CriticalRole Campaign Four (the first featuring the Soldiers' Table!) runs about 3 hours 32 minutes without either the pre-show or estimated 15 minute break, and therefore should end about 1:47 am Eastern Standard Time.

“I asked ChatGPT—“ yeah well I asked you to stop doing that and now we can’t be friends anymore

To my trans and nonbinary friends, I am so sorry that you have to deal with this hate. And I hope to see us reach the other side of it soon. And, we will reach the other side. This is horrifying, but it is ultimately the latest iteration of a time-worn tale. And their time always comes to an end.

The original Far Side Cow Tools Cartoon by Gary Larson. A cow stands on its hind legs behind a table, staring blankly at the viewer from behind its heavy brow ridge. On the table are four crudely made tools: a lump, a lump with an offset crooked handle, a long stick with hooked prongs at the end, and a crude handsaw with irregular teeth. In the background a barn sits on a hill. Caption reads, "Cow tools."

43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.
