us ms paint to whip out gods’ ugliest sketch that still communicates the necessary bits. more useful than slop and retains intent.

never let a machine tell you what you wanted to say.

finally i have an excuse for all the recipe books i’ve picked up over the years. ai will tell you to add three cups of rocks to an apple pie, or more likely just fuck up the ratios so you get pie soup.

trump doing a political 180 after talking with mamdani for one afternoon would be the funniest twist to sneak in at the end of 2025. heads would spinning on both sides, think of the ratings donald.

someone on the IT staff for the facility has a chance to become a folk hero. could even feign incompetence and include a journalist on your email thread. no shortage of real incompetence going around.

as long as they don’t compare the size of their mandates. can’t imagine trump’s insecurity handling that well.

right-wing chuds love the “easy times make weak men” bit, but the good times literally are generations of not commonly losing kids to disease, and the weakness is voluntarily abandoning the single most effective public health intervention on earth as an in-group signal.

great, now aliens will think humanity is weirdly pro-nazi and totally incapable of organizing thoughts in a useful fashion. the let-chatgpt-do-your-homework version of the voyager probe record.

People have heroic visions of shouting him down, but honestly even just, “Pardon me? What was that? What do you mean by that?” would probably set him stumbling.

I’m hoping as his grip begins to fail journalists and others are willing to push back in every interview, drag every lie into the light.

I absolutely love Morrowind, still head and shoulders above the other TES games in my book. Those loading screens really hooked me when I was young, and the promise of meeting such strange things kept me going through the steep early game difficulty.

I’m split between being frustrated that Dems haven’t built anything as effective, and glad that I don’t have to worry about less media-literate relatives getting a second variety of brainworms à la QAnonCasualties.

Not that delusion is in short supply online, but TV is potent and omnipresent.

The Fox News double-standard for what counts as a scandal is just one consistent bit of their entire bad-faith approach to news coverage. When the GOP is in office, they’re de facto state media, otherwise they’re a dedicated opposition channel.
