If you’re following the pro se tiktok psychic Idaho murders defamation case (which you should be), she’s now trying to disqualify a juror

I thought NPCs were stupid because they say the same thing every time I pressed A to talk, and then I had a kid and they ask the same question over and over and suddenly it all clicks. My kid is the protagonist.

People act like AI is changing everything, but I’m more impressed with battery and audio tech. $40 buys me a pair of high quality, noise cancelling earbuds and a carry case no larger than a pack of Altoids that can charge them for (literally!) 190 hours?

Modern miracles.

Hitting “new document” and just sailing out into that wide open sea to shores unknown.

Oh, my citation no longer supports the completely different argument you are now making? Statute says, “Slit my wrists.”

I understand that shorter legal writing is better legal writing. But if you edit my brief down to nothing and then tell me it no longer makes sense and my citations no longer apply, SCOTUS has ruled I have the right to throw myself out a window.

I know a lot of fans avoid confronting the racism inherent in Tolkien’s evil races and try to attach alternate meanings to that narrative, but it’s harder to ignore when the actual racists are like, “Hell yeah orcs = brown people.”

You might not read orcs that way, but the racists sure do.

I can’t even read a live summary. I got up to “fixing” housing with lower interest rates and I just can’t. You can’t solve a supply problem of this scale by increasing demand. I don’t even want to know what he’s saying about immigration or foreign wars.

Miller wouldn’t ask a question like this. He would jump straight to threats.

Take one wild guess, then look at the alt text of the image. I bet you are right on your first try.

Then Onion still has the juice sometimes.

I know the context of the Rice Cooker Discourse, but you will tear my rice cooker from my cold dead hands.

I just upgraded last year and the new one is so fast and easy. I am never, ever going back.

The Supreme Court:

Learning Resources v. Trump seems like as good a reminder as any that the Court’s principle bias is not left or right, it is corporate. Roberts can still see his way to sense when there’s a profit motive.

Everyone acts like it was always obvious that it was Mr. Jenkins in a mask, but you’d be more open to the possibility of the supernatural too if your best friend was a talking dog.

After we get done with this national humiliation ritual, we are totally getting into the frat, right?

Why do you keep off roading thru the deer preserve?

Man, fuck this.

People on Reddit like to point out comments they think are bot written, and sometimes I even think they are right, but they typically make enough sense in context and do enough to advance a conversation that I would never have notice naturally.

We are far enough along in the Dead Internet that it is likely that one or more of the people you are engaging with regularly On Here is already a bot.

It would be nice to think you could tell who, but honestly, I think we are already way past the point where I could in casual interaction.

This article is the investing equivalent of yelling “catch” and tossing someone a knife.

It is so weird to read articles about different sports once you start to notice the age ranges. Some are like, “this is 45-year old Alexander’s 8th Olympic Games, an excellent mid career showing,” while others are like “figure skater Monica appears here at age 22, the oldest woman to ever compete.”

The Brady Bunch Movie is an interesting concept. 70s sitcom characters in 90s sitcom situations, lampooning their hopeless naïveté.

The same setup but in to 2020s would be like giving them superpowers. Teens unconcerned with “looksmaxxing/mogging” or social media bullying? They’d be unstoppable.

I took Little Bit to the San Diego Safari Park this weekend. Neither of us had ever seen a platypus in person before, and apparently they have the only ones outside of Australia.

It’s been nice to hear about an animal other than a hedgehog for a bit (even tho they are still her favorites).

Trump/Vance, running as Democrats under the Constitutional theory that he’s allowed to run again as long it’s not for the same party.

Years ago I litigated a case involving an EMR system for small hospitals. It kept switching things like meds/notes between patients. We ended up settling out for the cost of replacement because there were no other damages - nurses didn’t trust the machine and kept their own parallel paper records.

The setting I most want for AI is the ability to turn off the incessant fluffing. No, I am NOT smart for asking that question, ChatGPT, and I do not appreciate you suggesting that I am diligent and insightful for engaging in this dumbassery.

Sabrina Carpenter, Chappel Roan and Billie Eilish pose for a photo.

Hocus Pocus (1993) follows a villainous comedic trio of witches who are inadvertently resurrected by a teenage boy in Salem, Massachusetts on Halloween night.

I would make an exception though for New Kids on the Block.
