The Call of Bunn'culu
The Hopping Chaos
At the Mountains of OKAY SERIOUSLY I NEEDED TO CHECK MULTIPLE SOURCES TO CONFIRM THIS IS A THING AND I STILL DON'T BELIEVE IT.

An image of gameplay from Tetrisphere for the Nintendo64. Yellow and purple tetris blocks rendered as a spherical playing field. Current player's score in the upper right corner.

Me, two seconds after reading what the next classic game dropping for Nintendo Switch Online is:

"Give us Tetrisphere, you cowards!"

You know, I’m not surprised that the people who have been bringing us “alternative facts” for like a decade now are planning to share fake jobs numbers and tariffs numbers and Smithsonian museum exhibits but it does scare the shit out of me how much they’re intent on destroying our shared reality

No, JD, belonging in America does not depend on how many generations of your family have lived here. The values of this country matter - deeply - to who we are and what it means to be American.

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:

1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;

2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;

3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

Beautiful. No notes.

Personally I hope we find out that what Gollum was doing while wandering about looking for the ring was either solving a series of cozy murders (Precious We Wrotes) or performing in an incompetent hobbit amateur dramatic troupe (The Ring that Goes Wrong)

Unless we change the societal norms that allow sexual predators like Andrew Cuomo amongst others, back in the spotlight running for public office, after zero accountability, reflection, remorse or admissions..

It won’t be long before we’re in this same position again..

“So, that’s that. I’ll be going back to my future now that the timeline is secured. Oh, sorry for the spoiler, but we were in a time loop and one of you two grows up to be the leader of the human rebellion against the machine hive mind. Not saying which, though. You’ll figure it out.”

“Yep, she was in on it, too. She was more afraid of you two scheming to parent trap us, or have me try using a disguise and a ridiculous fake voice to get to spend more than my court-allotted time with you. I even told her, ‘Dear, that won’t happen. Those children terrify me.’”

“But now that you’re both graduated from high school and out of the age range where either of you are both cute and believe in magic, we can be honest. We can speak as adults. And I can say to you, your mom and I are getting divorced.”

“I’m glad what you saw was a loving parent. Because inside me every day was a constant anxiety that one wrong move would have me retconning my life to learn I used to be Peter Pan. And nobody wants that. But more importantly I don’t want that.”

“Kids, I know you appreciate me always being there for your talent shows, karate tournaments, band concerts, school plays, and soccer matches… But you’re old enough to know the truth. I only did it so I wouldn’t suffer some hilarious high concept retribution to teach me the error of my ways.”

A photo of a TR-808. Alas, I don't know who took it. It's a fun, very early '80s looking drum machine, with its iconic row of red, orange, yellow, and white buttons against a black background.

Happy 808 day! 😊

Every kind of genAI that targets kids should be illegal unless every company exec who has children that are the same age as the target audience signs a binding contract (with massive financial penalties) to use it regularly on their own children.

Me: Invest all my savings in cryptocurrency

Financial Advisor: Do you understand cryptocurrency?

Me (picturing the cryptkeeper's face on all currency): 100%

I would like to see articles reporting on false or misleading statements to stop using paragraph one to repeat the statement.

Start with the truth, clearly establish the truth, then tell us who said what thing that flies in the face of the truth.

Birdigo is out today on Steam! Now at 84 on Metacritic. birdigogame.com

So, this video shows this tech from 2 years ago, but it showcases one important thing: If the human prompting the AI doesn't understand how a story works, story won't just happen.

AI tech bros co-generating South Park fan fiction with AI is mostly... South Park characters talking about AI.

Any time I offer a personal endorsement, I feel it’s best to channel Ron Swanson. parksandrecandfoodandstuff.tumblr.com/post/3889241...

Oscar Isaac in Rise of Skywalker saying "Somehow, the boys are back in town"

Found this in my downloads. Downloaded it in June last year. I think I made it? Don't know anything more about it than that.

GenX kids will know the pain of needing just the right kind of pencil to rewind.

Be excellent to each other, but don’t party with nazis.

It can't just be me. I don't believe that for a second.

It's easy to recognize TERFs and bots in this scenario, because who doesn't like Pedro Pascal? Who among us hasn't sat back in their chair and imagined walking hand-in-hand with him through a farmer's market? Feeding him a spoonful of the risotto you just made to see if it still needs something?

You have control of the board.

Broke down with my therapist
Took the kids to dinner with their mom/my ex
It’s fucking hot

I’m going to stand outside with my dog and stare into the middle distance, as a treat.

SPAGHETTI BUCKET

So, ah, the original Air Bud came out in 1997.
