Like watching the tide go out and out and out after a small earthquake and thinking, huh that's kinda weird.

So I picked up this book in a Japanese bookstore because I thought it would maybe be a cute gay romance. The title, I thought, was something like "Can two people become a pair?"

It's actually "please pair up", a squid game about high schoolers who have to hold hands or they die.
The cover for a Japanese novel. Two girls are holding hands.

It gets details wrong all the time.
AI telling me I can use money immediately after I add it to my Orca card. An actual search result telling me it can take up to 24 hours before funds added to my Orca card are usable.

bsky lore actually. I think it reached a peak when the Vagina Museum was scolded for scabbing.
Vagina Museum: We hope nobody needs to hear this today, but vaginas do not have a bone. However, clitorises do, in most animals. It's time to bone up on the baubellum, also known as the os clitoridis. Nico: Maybe you didn't see this, but we're doing a posting strike (except for mutual aid and SW) until Bluesky addresses its antiblackness problem.

A forum post asking how much the game Final Fantasy 2 cost in 1991, receiving the answer $60. An inflation calculator showing that $60 in 1991 is roughly equivalent to $140 in 2025.

I think about this shot maybe four times a week.
A headshot of Miles Morales at the end of Across the Spider-Verse. He's tied up and being threatened, but his facial expression shows only resolve. Because he's fucking Spider-Man.

I am the dog you put to sleep, as you like to call the needle of oblivion, come back to tell you this simple thing: I never liked you--not one bit. When I licked your face, I thought of biting off your nose. When I watched you toweling yourself dry, I wanted to leap and unman you with a snap. I resented the way you moved, your lack of animal grace, the way you would sit in a chair to eat, a napkin on your lap, knife in your hand. I would have run away, but I was too weak, a trick you taught me while I was learning to sit and heel, and--greatest of insults--shake hands without a hand. I admit the sight of the leash would excite me but only because it meant I was about to smell things you had never touched. You do not want to believe this, but I have no reason to lie. I hated the car, the rubber toys, disliked your friends and, worse, your relatives. The jingling of my tags drove me mad. You always scratched me in the wrong place. All I ever wanted from you was food and fresh water in my metal bowls. While you slept, I watched you breathe as the moon rose in the sky. It took all of my strength not to raise my head and howl. Now I am free of the collar, the yellow raincoat, monogrammed sweater, the absurdity of your lawn, and that is all you need to know about this place except what you already supposed and are glad it did not happen sooner-- that everyone here can read and write, the dogs in poetry, the cats and the others in prose.

Boo
Google disabled its AI response for the query "what yonder soul doth go hence?", presumably because it was embarrassingly wrong.

This is from the book that came out last week.
"Impressive," he said. "Like I've told the other women, if I let you in, you'll have to live and work around men in what might be embarrassing situations." "I'm used to it, sir," she said. "I have papers." Papers? He hesitated, then glanced at his scribe. "One who has filled out the forms," Challa the scribe whispered, "to live as a man." Ah. He'd heard of that. Well, the Azish did things their own way, didn't they? "Good to have you, Sarkuin," Adolin said to the man, and moved on. Though he did make a note for Colot to assign him to a specific platoon where Adolin knew for a fact they'd been asking for a soldier with smithing experience.

Hmmm
A chain of three comments, the first claiming that antisemitism isn't a significant force today, the second pointing out a synagogue recently received a bomb threat, and the third saying that Gazans get actual bombs daily.
