AP just posted a headline about the use of AI in the Palestinian Genocide, with the subheading about the Toronto plane crash. Very likely, their own LLM just succinctly captured both the horror and banality of AI in one handy post.

I shaved my Dad's head for him and now he looks like Aleister Crowley.

A small gray butterfly with reddish orange bands on its wings and fronds on the back wings. It is feeding on yellow goldenrod flowers.

Like most people, I have been paying attention to the news and it's making me anxious and upset. I plan on continuing to post beautiful birds, interesting insects, and fun science facts. It's a nice mental health break for me and I figure it might be for you too.

Thought we forgot ?

It's Moose Monday.

Seven boxy white autonomous vehicles with digital eyes and six tires are stuck in a traffic jam, blocking the campus sidewalk

Remember news articles about hitchhiking robots that always ended with “and Americans immediately destroyed it because they’re bad people”?

Welp, we made it through the week. Time to sip your favorite beverage like this butterfly sipping minerals from a leaf.

My Dad told me he is proud of me today.

The largest strike in US history started on this day in 1946, when 750k steel workers went on strike.

Just a little reminder of our power on a difficult day.
