A Christmas Carol (1843) is one of our most enduring stories bc it rightly insists that to get wealthy ppl to do the right thing, we gotta scare the shit outta them first

the big existential stuff about consumer AI is important to keep yelling about, but an underrated argument against its proliferation is that it's starting to make simple, everyday things harder and more annoying (and it's gonna get worse)

"I finally had to admit that no matter how many times I reread the recipe and attempted to follow the instructions, it wasn't going to work. I was stumped," Brenda Goodman writes.

"Then it dawned on me: Could this recipe have been generated by AI? Had I been had?" https://cnn.it/3KPT5Kq

a little wary of the instances where "AI" is mentioned being used here, but that stuff aside: holy shit, you guys www.latimes.com/california/s...
An amateur codebreaker may have just solved the Black Dahlia and Zodiac killings
Two retired LAPD homicide detectives say that both notorious cases are solved -- with a single culprit -- thanks to the work of a novice sleuth.

thank you, Jimmy! 🩷🎸 agree that @hvon.bsky.social's art is, generally, pretty perfect
In an effort to catch up on comics I backed on Kickstarter I read this today from @robpilk.com @hvon.bsky.social @jayboy495.bsky.social & @odysseycomics.bsky.social The estranged granddaughter of a rock legend inherits a crossroads demon. This was a lot of fun! Heather’s art was perfect for this.

Ballots for California statehood in 1849 were in both Spanish and English
Spanish is effectively the second language of the United States and has been since whatever point in the 19th C. when the number of Spanish speakers we'd annexed surpassed the number of French speakers we'd annexed. About 1 in 5 can speak it and a large chunk more have some rudimentary familiarity.
Cannot believe this version of the Republican Party won a record number of Latino/Hispanic voters, this country is so cooked lol

at an old job, the apple chart got shared in slack and our head of marketing — who we were regularly pitching creative to — was like "yeah i don't picture anything"
Aphantasia is one of those things I have a hard time accepting actually exists. What do you mean you can't picture things in your head? That's like 95% of my day.
