Pretty wild when you realize the vast majority of public LLMs are just an AI layer on top of Wikipedia and Reddit. Basically, the "future" only exists because the past was open source

Crazy how fast I scroll past any video with a Sora watermark. Sorry but I already have enough content to deal with

I'm trying to stick with my rule of not adding to the doom discourse and that often means I have nothing to say some days except that like a bunny has taken up residence in my yard and we hang out on the porch at night sometimes

I know they had to choose NIN for the Tron Ares soundtrack because they know the movie needs all the help it should get but the soundtrack should've been composed by Makeup and Vanity Set. That's all, thanks for letting me share!

Oh not far at all. Still trying to beat the sirens. But I already know this is my jam

Ok the thing is, there are rare moments when you encounter a work of art that feels like it was made for you. And I'm here to say that for me, that work of art is Hades 2. Are there ways it isn't perfect? Probably. But it doesn't matter because this game is for me and I am in love.

Okay, important question. When I say "James Cameron's most famous film," what do you think of first? Gut response only

It's wild how much the combination of bourbon, researching new soup recipes, and the 24/7 Scoobtober youtube channel are about to prop of my mental health for the rest of this month

Illustrated comic featuring bearded vultures (lammergeiers) with playful captions. The vultures are depicted with pinkish-orange chests and black wings, performing various actions: one standing proudly, one rolling in reddish mud, one flying while dropping a bone to crack it, and one soaring. Text reads: β€œPink Bony Club”, β€œI’m gonna keep on rolling in the iron rich mud”, β€œI’m gonna keep on breaking big bones really good”, β€œI’m gonna keep on flying at the Pink Bony Club Pink Bony Club.” At the bottom, it says: β€œHappy International Vulture Awareness Day!”

A cartoon witch with green skin, messy black hair, and a long crooked nose wears a teal dress and tall black hat while carrying Bugs Bunny in her arms. Bugs appears annoyed, his arms folded and ears drooping. Behind them is a light-green cabinet with white silhouettes of dishes and teapots, and a vase of red flowers on top. The wooden floor contrasts with the flat, pastel background.

Just look at how Phil de Guard rendered a hutch in this background painting for Bewitched Bunny (1954). Absolutely perfect level of fidelity for a quick pan. Absolutely obsessed with that dude

A ceramic bowl with a painted design of an orange crab with large claws and multiple legs, outlined in white against a dark circular background. The rim of the bowl is a reddish-brown color. The crab’s eyes are stylized and prominent, giving it a striking appearance.

User homoquartz writes: as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, β€œi’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now."
Small talk isn't to get to know a person. It's just a greeting to affirm you're buddies in the universe. I am motivated by wanting the other person to know I am friendly, so I have gotten pretty decent at small tall when I used to hate it.

This Tumblr user summarizes something I've been feeling/doing lately. Against everything going on, it somehow feels helpful.

A 3D animated rat wearing black sunglasses and large black boots poses confidently against a teal and blue gradient background. The rat is stylized with exaggerated proportions and a humorous stance, creating a surreal, meme-like effect.

There's an Instagram account that solely posts videos of this animated rat dancing and some days it is the only thing that gets me through

Not saying you have to do this but I think your friends would be thrilled to receive a 5 x 7 glossy like it's a back-to-school elementary student portrait and by friends I mean me

The author's wrist wearing a chunky brown bracelet with large gold spikes, resembling a spiked cuff. In the background, a sewing workspace is visible with a cutting mat, scissors, sewing machine, and pieces of green and gold craft material.

You can maybe guess my Comic Con costume from this alone, but there's definitely a twist and it's very silly.

Dude this Guinness show. Netflix? Are we okay? Do we think we're off brand Guy Ritchie? I don't even know what to make of this

A rectangular doormat made of brown coir with a black cartoon bat design in the center. The bat has wide, round white eyes and its wings are raised upward, with jagged edges giving it a playful, spooky look.

If you could use a boost, I think you should know that West Elm's got an Ed Emberley Halloween door mat

I was just struck by how much "tech guy" as an archetype has killed the diversification of the ruling class. In the early 1900s, it would be like oh that's the Penny Candy Pinball Arcade King of New York

A very sick thing about being an aged millennial is how something like people being afraid of Tylenol can make you nostalgic for another similar, bad time

You can delete all your tweets if you want but my god people saved screenshots and they will post them to meme accounts on Instagram for every person in your life to DM you and say "Wait are you famous" and you have to replay "haha crazy right" when what you really feel is cringe down to your soul
