there's something so deliciously anachronistic about getting copilot AI ads on windows 98

I always think of the Nordic countries run too. They look so nice and I have heard no one wants to interact with you. It sounds like the perfect place!

a toasted brown frenchie sits in a grassy yard on his booty, his hind legs sprawled out in front of him. his head is drooping, he supports himself up with his left front paw, while his right paw rests on his right thigh. to his left stands a white frenchie who is facing away from us. even so, it appears as if the white frenchie is giving the brown frenchie major side eye.

Yukichi is the last one at daycare for the day besides Mochi, and he doesn't really like Mochi. Still 12/10 for both

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

I had this conversation with a seasoned tech colleague. I try and work for "good" companies when I can and this has for sure limited my income. My colleague states he will work for highest bidder no matter who. I personally couldn't work like that daily, selling what little soul I have left

Its a Seinfeld The Thing Mashup meme of Jerry Seinfeld, Kramer and The Thing, The John Carpenter movie. Jerry asks Kramer "Kramer , what's going on in here?" Kramer says Nobodt trusts anybody now, Jerry" Kurt Russell is behind Kramer with a lit flare it seems. And in the last panel you see a hideous creature with Newman's head on it.

There's a scene in Better off Ted where the boss says "The company motto- It's right there on the lobby floor - "Profit before people". It just looks better in Latin"

I think about that scene a lot

Another day of reminding everyone of Carl Saganโ€™s eerily accurate warning about the dangers of not being able to ask skeptical scientific questions to those in power or authority.

This photograph captures Sir David Attenborough seated outdoors on the rugged terrain of Skomer Island. Behind him, the ocean and coastal cliffs form a scenic backdrop under a clear sky. Sir David, dressed in a khaki jacket and light trousers, looks towards the camera with a gentle expression, exuding a sense of warmth, calm, and wisdom. Around him, puffins can be seen flying and perched on the rocky ground, illuminated in rays of golden sunlight as the sun sets behind the cliffs.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. ๐ŸŽ‰

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

hey so me and my friends spent like three years dubbing the 1986 Mario movie as if it was actually dubbed in the 80s. Itโ€™s got everything- bizarre translation, questionable voice direction, and the replacement of all Japanese food. Also new English songs. Itโ€™ll be out this Saturday.
