I love this.
An exchange on twitter. controlla.xyz: If you hate Al you probably just hate art and expression It's an infinite mashup of all the best art ever made by humans lesliejandersonwriter: If you hate the juice at the bottom of a restaurant dumpster you just hate food and cooking. It's an infinite mashup of all the best food made by humans!

Glad to see Polygon cover the resistance of game developers to generative AI--and to be able to speak briefly to one of the greatest dangers of this entire thing.

Gen AI doubles down on making MORE SPACE for production issues that *already make games worse.*

The desert woodlouse, which inhabits the driest known habitat of any crustacean, also mates for life, coparents its young to help protect them from scorpions! They apparently recognize their relatives through pheromones but aren't above eating unrelated babies.

A photo of a grocery store sign that lists "Can fish", "Microwave", and "Soup", which can be read as "Can fish microwave soup?" On the top of the image is the caption "Probably not, but I'm not sure they've ever tried!"

A Reddit post on r/AO3, titled "i don't even know how to react to this information". Shown is a screenshot of the additional tag filter on Archive of Our Own. The filter simply has the letter F typed in, which yields the following autocomplete suggestions: Threesome - F/M/M Threesome - F/F/M Threesome - F/F/F Foursome - F/M/M/M Foursome - F/F/M/M Foursome - F/F/F/M Foursome - F/F/F/F Fivesome - F/M/M/M/M Threesome - F/M/Other Fivesome - F/F/F/F/M Fivesome - F/F/F/F/F Threesome - F/F/Other Fivesome - F/F/M/M/M Fivesome - F/F/F/M/M John F.

Eventually, Musk realized that Pop-Tarts were best enjoyed toasted. So he opened a package and put two of them into the toaster, Thompson said, Only Musk made the rookie mistake of inserting the pastries horizontally, rather than vertically. When they popped back up, he had to stick his fingers into the toaster to grab his breakfast. This was a problem, and at about six in the morning Musk proceeded to scream, at full volume, "Fuck, it burns! Fuck, it burns!" Two older ladies at the front desk, nearby, watched in mortified silence.

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.
A post on Mastodon by small cypress (@small_cypress@indieweb.social): As an art teacher I was worried AI would come up as an issue of "why should I learn how to draw when I can use AI instead." But the real issue is that my middle schoolers CONSTANTLY believe all art I show them is AI. Digital art. Photography. Oil paintings from the Western canon. "A human couldn't do that" Being convinced that humans can't make great art is kind of terrifying

Baby pigeon mystery.
My pigeon book is here: www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/rosem...
A six-panel comic. In panel 1, text says "People often wonder, why don't I see baby pigeons? Here's where they're hiding:" and there's an egg with an arrow pointing to a question mark, then an arrow pointing to an adult pigeon. Panel 2 says "Pigeons don't nest in trees. They nest in sheltered spaces on or in buildings. This keeps their babies safe from weather and predators." There's a pigeon nesting in a sheltered cavity in the side of a building. Panel 3 says "The hidden babies look like this: like moldy potatoes, but cute" and there are two baby pigeons looking, well, like moldy pink and gray potatoes with yellow fuzz. Panel 4 says "Older baby pigeons hide in plain sight. When they leave the nest, they're adult-sized, but they're still young and learning" and a fledgling pigeon is flying out of a building saying "aaaaaa". Panel 5 says "Here's how to identify these young pigeons" and shows a fledgling pigeon with arrows pointing to these features: eyes may be gray-brown, pale-edged feathers, smaller "nose" (cere), subdued hues, and looks worried. Panel 6 says "Scientifically speaking, though, all pigeons are sweet babies" and there are three very cute round pigeons, a gray, white, and red one, with arrows pointing to them to make things look scientific.
