The artificer nodded. "I can build this wheeled chair, but why? You have an enchanted hover seat."

"Yes," the wizard fumed, "but the palace have erected magic-cancelling wards."

"Why?"

"Don't know. But they didn't think of people who need mobility aids. So I need wheels to go shout at the king."

choo choo, motherfucker

What an amazingly terrifying read.

"It’s a twisted ouroboros: universities partner with AI companies; students use AI to cheat; schools panic about cheating and then partner with more AI companies to detect the cheating."

Being extremely careful about image/video attribution isn’t JUST important for giving credit to artists and creators. It’s also a way to slightly decrease your chances of spreading deceptive AI slop!

Every time I see something from Pompeii it prompts a memory of the Cambridge Latin Course and I wonder "Did this guy work for Caecilius?"

Listen, I cannot stress enough that I don't fucking care if someone makes every single "bad decision" in their life that they could possibly make.

They still deserve access to food, shelter and healthcare.

Vanity Fair thinks firing the Nuzzi will make people stop asking why she got hired because the boss' partner is her bestie and nah buddy, you're not tefloning away this one

This thread is full of video that is "awesome" in both the colloquial *and* the original sense of the word

I guess it’s nice that Silicon Valley has moved on from reinventing the bus to reinventing the Lynch mob.

I can't take credit for that particular nugget of internet wisdom, but I do make sure to remember it! 😅

The people pushing for the elimination of birthright citizenship are currently committing atrocities against immigrants within our country's borders and murdering fishermen overseas.

Until such time as the account in question deletes that post, you can always copy-paste the text itself as a search term. Of course, you'll also turn up the screenshots that have alt-text, so you have to double-check. But that's always a good idea for artisanal blocking. 😈

It is, in point of fact, "culturally normal" to judge people who are behaving badly.

So I'm gonna go ahead and judge Gavin Newsom for saying this shite and there's nothing he can do to stop me.

revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.

Please note that any "centrist" pundit who blithely discusses the "merits" of arguments for eliminating birthright citizenship is either a fascist enabling fascism or a clueless clown enabling fascism.

I've already procured a fountain pen, so if I end up buying parchment paper and wax seals, I can write you letters as if we're lovers separated by war.

Think about it.

I mean that anything you want actors to interact with has to be done before, where digital stuff can be done after. It must pose a scheduling challenge.

does foraging for pebbles and berries satisfy my shopping urge or is my shopping urge a modern manifestation of my inate human need to find cool stones and fruit
