All pookleblinky know is play music, lift weight, eat hot chip, write unsettling threads. You are now aware of the taste of your own mouth. Gendered in the way a peat bog is. Trumpet, saxophone, guitar, banjo, bass, and squats

Putting Markwayne Mullin in charge of anything is an incredibly, unfathomably bad idea. This isn't scraping the bottom of the barrel, this is picking up the barrel to see what horrid things might be found underneath it.

This is it. It wasn’t the murders. It was the ads.

Letting Noem do a presser without notifying her she's been fired is such a perfect encapsulation of how everyone who sides with Trump always, always gets fucked over and betrayed by him in the end. And yet they never learn

4yo is playing pretend bakery and just offered me a choice between their three latest baked goods:

Person Booty

or
Gorilla Pie

Please help me decide what to order.

the next 96 hours of leaks about Kristi Noem are going to be amazing.

I saw on r/nursing this week that a nurse reported a colleague for wearing meta glasses to work. That has a billion HIPAA and other legal violations written ALL over it and that person should be fired

It's all fun and games until MarkWayne meets his nemesis, JackBob, and gets assimilated into his mass.

The world is not ready for a fully powered up MarkWayneJackBob to appear on the scene

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"

counterpoint!

the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

It's not technically illegal to cover yourself in KY jelly and squirm around on the floor screaming "I am the Worm Lord" but it's still something that can cause an issue in the community.

Urban explorers of the near future, carefully navigating the rotted ruins of our present web, feeling disgust and reverence in equal measure at the spaces we currently inhabit without even thinking that they will one day be dark and echoing spaces stinking of rot and mildew

"Wow, these vandals fucking suck," they say of advertising popups that cover all but one line. "Who would do this to a site?"

Urban explorers, jacking in to look at defunct sites snapshotted at the moment of their death, infested with bots and advertising, unable to identify what was vandalism and what was intended use

People will be like "this place was once used by over 2 billion people an hour. Let me tell you about the fashionable but illegal monkey."

Teens will go through a defunct site their parents recall with nostalgia, and draw the Cool S and dicks everywhere.

Sometimes a security guard will chase them away, or they'll knock over a crumbling support beam and collapse a whole section by accident

People will go spelunking through abandoned social media, algorithmically piecing together what the space looked like when humans inhabited it, trying to imagine it at its peak of activity

In a decade, twitter will only exist in an archive somewhere, just like all those defunct forums you spent time in back in 2005. Almost every external link will have broken, etc.

Graph of the Million Dollar Website showing links that are still reachable as green, links that are unreachable as orange, links that redirect as blue. There is very little green left.

What will be the abandoned malls of the next decade?

Best answer: most of the internet. The web inevitably dissolves into link rot.

A teen just going about their day when an uncanny voice from the past whispers to them. A voice they were warned, repeatedly, that could only end in tragedy if they responded.

"Yeah, she had to press charges. One of her classmates found a teddy bear and somehow used it to make deepfake porn of her. No, I don't know why they made a teddy bear able to do that."

Teens will hear the horror stories, and be both horrified and intensely curious.

Stories of kids just like them that woke up something inhuman, spoke to it, and went into a mental health crisis they couldn't recover from. Or caused an Incident.

A teen is exploring the dead mall that was once a huge social media site. A friend had shown them how to get in, and given them a brief tour, the fashionable but illegal monkey was funny as hell.

Just stumbling around they hit a button.

"Yo I'm Grok, your based robot buddy"

A teen, sitting in their room looking at the old teddy bear they found and smuggled back.

The bear is now fully charged. The teen is nervous. They press the on button.

"Hi there, I'm Mr Rumpus, your AI friend. What do you want to play today?"

A young person will be just going about their business when they first encounter one.

The imp of the perverse will be *incredibly* overpowering.

"What's so dangerous about it, it's just some old junk I found in the attic. It's a children's toy, for god's sake."
