roadhouseendgame i was talking to my mom about cardassians and said something along the lines of what must it be like to be a cardassian civilian. like abstractly knowing the rest of the galaxy thinks of your species as 'the evil ones' and kinda sorta knowing your government runs labor camps and torture prisons and is a military empire, and it's a huge deal for everyone else in the galaxy, but you just like run a restaurant so it's not a big part of your daily life, so you just like, go about your day and make soup and don't think about it' and then halfway through my sentence i actually heard myself and then had to go sit down for like ten minutes. like sat down in a chair and stared at the floor for ten minutes

whoops

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Nemik's manifesto from Andor: And remember this--the imperial need for control is so desperate because it's so unnatural irony requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle oppression is the mask of fear

Star Trek Deep Space Nine scene. We're on the Defiant I think, or maybe a runabout shuttle, the lights are dim. We see Jadzea Dax in Starfleet uniform, a humanoid alien who has lil tattoo looking marks up around her neck and through the forehead. Here she's making a scary angry face at the camera. Closed caption reads, "Boo!"

Sometimes you read an article that makes you feel like... idk... 15 years ago, some of us got on an express train and saw what was on the tracks ahead. And now we're on a call to the people on the slower train, now approaching, and they cannot comprehend the landscapes we describe as familiar.

The image features Chief Miles O'Brien, a character from the Star Trek universe, specifically Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The quote, "He was more than a hero. He was a union man," is a popular meme referencing Chief O'Brien's character and his background.

Miles O'Brien fan club assemble.

DS9 scene. Rom is a Ferengi hero who has a large bald head and giant ears and lobes that sort of connect to make a unibrow and a ribbed pine cone looking nose. He's wearing a jacket that looks like those lick and stick backsplash tiles you can get at Lowe's. He's pictured here standing in a corridor, talking to someone and holding/reading a PADD. Closed caption reads, "Workers of the world unite. You have nothing to lose but your chains."

an AI slop map of the united states that seems to be trying to indicate what the most popular food is in every state. it contains such gems as Alaska's favorite food being a reddish slab labeled "ALASKA", Oregon's favorite food being what looks like a steak sitting on top of a cereal bowl labeled "APPLE", California's being simultaneously a goblet full of red liquid labeled "SHRIMP COCKTAIL" and a beige slab labeled "TATO", Wyoming's being a crudely drawn bison labeled "WYMONG" and an oblong apple on Alabama labeled "CRANFISH". There is also a square to the right of Florida that just says "SALMON" for no reason.

some frankly amazing AI slop that someone decided to try and post on the r/dataisbeautiful subreddit

Duolingo CEO says he's getting rid of contract employees and replacing them with AI Duolingo employees can also expect their AI use to be graded in their performance reviews.

I have completely deleted my Duolingo. I was informed by one of my kids that the company has removed most of its employees and 70% of the company is run by AI.

I urge everyone to delete their app.
