Exactly. They’re uncool and also have no real friends except for the sycophantic robots they’ve made, so they don’t understand why the rest of us aren’t clamoring to adopt their sycophantic robots in place of human friends, too

Do Not read other humans’ thoughts on water bottle flipping. Only Read Google Gemini’s output. Your Best Friend Google Gemini knows all the cool water bottle flipping tips you’ll ever need

Sovereignty Matters: Native Americans Build Their Own Meat Processing Facilities - Offrange During the pandemic’s supply chain disruptions, at least 18 tribes in the U.S. opted to vertically integrate. Several years later, they are thriving.

Very cool feature on food sovereignty and tribal communities taking control of meat processing; Offrange is a really fantastic publication with really unique food and agriculture coverage and I cannot recommend them highly enough!

It’s sort of interesting that giving Sonic the Hedgehog a gun was a big deal but Nintendo has given Kirby a gun a few different times and no one really reacts because it’s like “yeah he’d have one”

when I was a kid, at night I'd close my eyes and see these distorted warping faces, they would mutate and rot, and had a horrible evil feeling to them. eventually it stopped.
Anyway i'm an artist so now you can see it too!

a screenshot of an ad (Promoted post) on Reddit by u/SamsungMobileUS. The text reads: “Flipping a water bottle isn’t luck, it’s physics. Ask Google Gemini on Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra to breakdown (sic) the science behind the challenge visually so your flips actually land.” The image below shows a bottle of water standing upright on a white table, with “TA DA” composited behind it in translucent letters designed to appear made of water. A subtitle on the image says “Whoa!”

billions of dollars and billions of gallons of water and the health of whole towns being wasted for this. The only thing more embarrassing in 2025 than crowing about water bottle flipping is asking Google Gemini to help you optimize your water bottle flipping.

Because I've already had to read several horrible stories today about AI and also see friends' jobs get stolen, I'm reposting my anti-AI pins. 100% human designed by me for my fellow haters.

A.I. and the Fetishization Of Ideas In writing and in dispensing my (very dubious, probably shady) writing advice, I am often keen to note that ideas are bullshit. Most writers treat them like precious gems when really, ideas are lik…

I said it before, will say it again -- generative AI fetishizes "ideas" while sneering at effort, execution, and education. That, despite Gen-AI being built on and out of other people's effort, execution and education.

I was walking in the country a few weeks ago, on a windy day, and I realized that as the wind shifted it was making different sounds as it blew through the branches of different kinds of trees.

Fifty-six years on earth, and I never heard that before.

Go for a fucking walk, assholes.

Hey, instead of yelling at people about not using Alt text, if it's really important with you, post the alt text in comments.

Accessibility is important, yes, but let's not forget that people have different levels of energy to provide them.

It is not always malicious intent.
