“Thursday” is a weird name for a project.

you don't have to put on blackface to get social media attention. you can simply develop mild depression, join a menswear forum, spend the next 15 years arguing about pants, and then weaponize the knowledge against your enemies on social media.

🎶 Where it’s at, I got two air fryers and an instant pot. 🎶

I can handle living in a dystopian future, but does it have to be this tacky?

Steampunk bitcoin.

Unfair to Beaker.

This is the last thing the BBC needs

Founding fathers more like absentee fathers am I right?

@colinmochrie.bsky.social hi Colin!

Love taskmaster. Highly recommended.

It reads like a strike authorization, not yet an actual strike.

That’s your prerogative. But to me it doesn’t seem implausible that obsessively interacting with a chatbot might not be healthy for a mentally ill person? People generally sense when someone’s broken with reality and behave accordingly, but I’m not sure LLMs can do this. (Maybe they can though!)

(And I agree that journalism can pander or fear monger, but it’s a little hard to know if this is the case without someone actually doing a study?)

I agree! But the possibility doesn’t seem as far-fetched to me as “D&D causes satanism.” I’m sure there’s some scientifically rigorous way to figure out whether it’s a real problem and there are probably ways to mitigate it if it is.

I take your point on scale, but if LLM use actually can be harmful for people prone to mental health problems, even if it’s a small number of people, isn’t that a fair point? (Of course the jury’s out on whether that’s actually so.)

I’m going to print this guy’s meme on a t shirt instead of buying it from his merch store.

I’ll tell you what I like about that new Superman movie is it looks like a movie that a 70 year old grandparent, a 40 year old parent, and a 10 year old kid could all go to together and all have the same level of enjoyment and I think that’s kind of sweet. That’s what Superman should be

Jake Tapper is the reason America is doomed "With people like Jake Tapper around, news isn't working the way it's supposed to."

If Jake Tapper writing about Biden is bad and a distraction from current events, then how is writing about Jake Tapper also not bad and a distraction from current events? www.sfgate.com/politics/art...

Does it seem to anyone else like Saturn is trying to discreetly back away?

Notice how Super Mario and all his supposed “enemies” are happy to get together and go go-kart racing? Wake up. It’s all kayfabe

In a grim world, I welcome a little silliness and fun. (Even if I actually personally have never enjoyed Mario Kart, which I think is a bit like admitting you don't like sunshine or the laughter of children.)

Merriam-Webster Tweet: Any dictionary can be a pocket dictionary with big enough pants. Cookie Monster's reply to the tweet: Me no wear pants.

This might be the absolute greatest reply we have ever received.

Thank you, Cookie Monster 📕🍪💙

Actually, this isn’t true. No such play or movie was ever produced.
