Logging back on to BlueSky solely to say that if this sci-fi/fantasy ARC novel doesn't do anything interesting with the time travel aspect, I will THROW HANDS.

Finally saw 'Superman' yesterday. While James Gunn is not entirely off of my shitlist (I remember GOTG 3, motherfucker), apparently I will forgive a remarkably messy movie that seems to go out of it's way to avoid a PG rating if there's an absolutely unhinged Nicholas Hoult performance and/or a dog.

Big Tech's emissions increased 150% in just 4 years, "thanks" to the exploding electricity demands of slop-bucket LLMs that boil lakes to rephrase the internet

Generative AI is worse than useless; it is making it impossible for us to limit climate change

spending a week helping grandma help recuperate from a hospital visit has made it so that I now have stronger opinions about game shows.

(America Says slaps, Bingo Blitz is broken as hell, The Wall gets on my nerves, Cash Cab also slaps, and Beat the Bridge is a fucking embarrassment to game shows)

There's this little ten year old girl sitting at the table across from mine, just VIBING to "Pink Pony Club."

Like, yeah. I get it, kid.

We had a big OCLC cataloging webinar today. It warmed my heart that as the presenters were talking about all the cool things you can do with AI, the general vibe in the chat was "this fucking sucks."

3. Kenny Rogers - "The Gambler"

A classic for a reason. I love a good country music story song. This is a peak example of that + an infinitely singable chorus (you gotta know when to hold em)

You ever read a book and think "wow, this is really good, I do not want to talk about this with any straight white man that I have not personally vetted?"

EPs count, simply because so many k-pop and j-pop artists are allergic to releasing full albums

A rare Mississippi win
Mississippi lawmaker introduces 'Contraception Begins at Erection Act'

“…would seemingly ban men from masturbating or engaging in other sexual acts when they have no ‘intent to fertilize an embryo.’”

Mississippi lawmaker introduces 'Contraception Begins at Erection Act'
The bill, which is unlikely to pass, would make it unlawful for “a person to discharge genetic material without the intent to fertilize an embryo.”

My absolute hatred of The Home Edit has joined up with my disgust at Extreme Makeover Home Edition to just make an exceedingly reprehensible Megazord that seems to be always on at the gym.

And again. More pictures of HIM on this TL. When he has a platform all for that. Stop it. Or at least put his name in the alt text. You're giving him free promo.

Jeez, this place is Not Good Right Now.

Games night last night, where we played Root. As someone who is a noted hater of games that have ten billion fiddly bits, I can make an exception for that sort of game if no one knows what the fuck they're doing.

Maybe we played it right??

one of the librarians at the school I work at is all in on AI and I'm like girl.... if you're waiting for AI to get good enough to do the inventory you made me clean up reports for and then proceeded not to do, that's not going to happen.
