SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I think if the Fantastic Four were real we would mostly find them disgusting

Logical Journey of the Zoombinis

@crowdcontroldo.bsky.social this is so unimportant but in the post credits, one of the audience members is discussing 90s computer games and the my favorite childhood game was subtitled as Zoom Beanies and not Zoombinis, put some respect on their lil blue name

good news we cured using "lol" as punctuation; bad news it's not much better lmao

The president is the perfect fusion of the non-Charlie Wonka kids: the gluttonous Augustus, TV-obsessed Mike Teevee, spoiled brat Veruca, and nepo-kid of a dishonest businessman Violet

Like bro... shit is afoot as fuck...

Something is so fuckeng afoot

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

Compromise is not possible with fascism. If I have a glass of water and you have a glass of poison and we commingle them we’re still both ending up drinking poison and the poison only came from the one place

the Cover of Drake album "If Youre Reading This Youre Gay LMAO"

Disney Prime's Summer Concert Series continues this evening with former rap sensation Drake.

Do you think unbending Clippy until he was a long piece of metal would be painful for him. Or do you think it would cause him to feel a great sense of relief

go off Chester

BLITZER: Now we’re getting reports that one of the bullet casings was engraved with a message saying that if you are reading the casing, you are gay. We must warn our viewers we’re about to show the photo and don’t know at this time whether the engraving is what makes you gay or if it just tells you

what a humiliating way for don jr. to find out his dad sends birthday cards.

It drives me nuts to see people keep claiming that "Almost every enemy does 2 masks of damage" because...they don't?? Most of the attacks that do are slow and telegraphed, I think people who are upset about this are just unwilling to experiment with technique/come back with more upgrades later

Meta-progession can make you question how fair your task was before you progressed. If you "must" get buffs to move forward, was the time before then not wasted? Succeeding because time passed feels hollow, succeeding because I got in tune with the game and improved makes my time feel well spent.

This GOP Board of Elections Chair was arrested in my town yesterday for putting pills of MDMA and cocaine in his granddaughters Dairy Queen and blaming it on employees but got busted by security footage.

Anyone who thinks the new Cracker Barrel logo is woke left four or mor'n

Wow they always go in threes: Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Ozzy Osbourne, and Chuck Mangione and absolutely no one else

It's me! I'm the guy! The space bar!

The QAnon Shaman replying to Donald Trump: "Fuck this stupid piece of shit... What a fraud..."

he's lost the QAnon Shaman

Sorry but personally if a miniature horse woke me up from anesthesia by banging out nonsense on a miniature keyboard it would send me into a liminal space between life and death from which I would never return

I was about two seconds from standing at the wrong 'ending'- excellent show! I work at the Center and, well, have had a lot of the same conversations with my circle that you have, but it was powerful to still hear those words coming from that stage

I’m a single issue voter and my issue is STOP FUCKING FIGHTING EACH OTHER AND FOCUS.

the president just opened a concentration camp

real bummer finding out that literally everything was on the honor system this whole time

naming your mining company "Canary" is a choice

"What could one pencil cost, Michael? Ten dollars?"
