large fireworks display in downtown Seattle, lots of smoke and light against the buildings at Westlake Center.

Seattle pouring on the flak like Godzilla about to come strollin' thru

Image of a museum inscription that reads "ancient squirrel" that shows a human next to it giving the squirrel roughly the size of an elephant.

Make this Jurassic Park movie you cowards

Trains at Seattle's underground light rail arrive simultaneously at Capital Hill station

Rare double train arrival at the station this morning.

The first John Wick trailer looked like satire, full of "They killed my dog!" and "That dog was the final gift from my dying wife" and "It's personal!" but somehow it rose above it all. So ya never know.

sketch of a crow next to a large candle with an image of a skull on the front, all sitting on a bartop with pencils and a drink visible in the background.

Very Edgar Allen Poe vibe at the pub this weekend.

A page from the script for the film "No One Can Save You".

It takes the like 30 seconds of creepy-af scenes in Signs and does that for 2 hours relentlessly. And there's zero dialog, it's all terror. This is literally a page from the shooting script

ink sketch of a bar, The Roanoke in Seattle, using a "fish-eye" distortion.

Saw a tutorial from an artist on here or Twitter for setting up a fish-eye "5 point perspective" so I tried it out. Haven't sketched in *forever* so it's a mess and the spatial distortion nearly broke my brain, but I had a lot of fun with it. Few Saturdays sitting at The Roanoke pub in Seattle.

Love that he also declared that polls will now only be responded to by blue-checks. So now only neo-nazis can respond to Elon polls about whether neo-nazis are bad.

Image of downtown Seattle with a dramatic cloud formation above the waterfront ferris wheel. It looks like an orange-pink vortex lit by the setting sun.

Looks like someone on the ferris wheel nailed the incantation

That's quite the out-of-nowhere stinger they probably should have focused the whole story on:

"When pressed, Portillo denied taking a cut, or percentage, of his officers’ extra job wages."

Well they didn't all walk away. At least one of those Proud Boys is most likely LAPD too.

I'm pretty sure the children's book about two gay penguins adopting a baby penguin would clear your "printed in a newspaper or read on broadcast television news" hurdle, my guy.

Stop hiding behind excuses and just SAY you hate LGBTQ people. All this faux "protect the children" crap is exhausting.

never eaten YET.

Especially considering their own favorite techbro sells a *portable flamethrower* for $500.

I didn't get into it. Turned into an anthology, with whole new setting and characters. Setting was a Japanese internment camp, so had a seldom-seen perspective, but should have been its own show, not branded "The Terror" for no reason except marketing.

Scene from the AMC series "The Terror" (season 1) showing a 19th century ship trapped in sea ice, and a small group of men walking across the ice, with ominous clouds and lighting.

His accent died before Mina did. Also if you like this sort of thing and haven't yet, The Terror (first season) should be right up your alley.

I'd pay $1000 to watch this if there's an after credits scene and it's just Gary Oldman strolling in London and catching the eye of Winona Ryder from across the street.

Actually I may have to take that back. Section 10.4 explicitly includes "customer content" in the rights granted for functions of the app, but then has the "For machine learning" bit tucked in there. So it comes down to is Zoom making/storing copies of all of our *private* calls in the first place?

There's a whole section in the TOS that explicitly explains that "customer content", ie the stuff customers make (audio, video, etc) are EXCLUDED from the "service generated data" that it collects. So no they won't be using our faces or private conversations.

This is canon now they will not be separated

I think Cleta Mitchell is in the mix.

Yes but doesn't "half its users" still leave it with like 50 *million* users? Compared to Bluesky's 50,000ish? That doesn't seem like a disaster, unless those 50 million users are all brands.

I like it if just for the vehicle of giving Ryan Reynolds the rare (tho less rare every year) superhero triple; Hannibal King, Green Lantern, and Deadpool.

I got caught in an argument at the bar last night about the ethics of AI art, and so wished I was sitting at the other side of the bar where they were arguing about the correct spelling of "bakey" for "Wakey wakey, eggs and bakey."

Elon: "San Francisco, we will always be your friend."

"and why are there wires hanging out of it."

For the absolute worst possible reason.

Taking a user's valuable Twitter handle without any compensation or even asking is exactly the kind of behavior I'm looking for in a bank.
