love that software developers are advertising AI functionality in every single app now and it's up to you to try to figure out if they mean "this has spellcheck" or "everything you create in this app will sync in real-time to sam altman's personal laptop" or something in between

Had a dream I was writing a script for an animated police procedural, except it was Anubis as a coroner-priest solving crimes in ancient Egypt.

Anyway, call me, Hollywood, we’ll talk.

The reason why older generations burnt the shit out of their meat and boiled the shit out of their vegetables, was your kid died if you didn't.

Medium rare steaks and roasted Brussels sprouts are a side effect of an intact food safety infrastructure

The internet is a special place because how did the writer of Land Before Time just come up on my feed saying "If this film broke your heart, you might be entitled to compensation from me and Little Foot."

So I am going to say something about romance as a genre.

A lot of people think that romance is ignorable because <insert thing they think about romance> and romance authors don't count because <insert thing they think about romance>.

This thread is not about whether you have to like romance.

2025 was like the “Battlestar Galactica” episode where the Cylons attacked every 33 mins.It required adjusting our way of thinking, of fighting, our imagination & our willingness to take risks. It required asking people who had done a specific job a specific way for a long time to do it differently.

We could fix this if we collectively recognize the problem, which is car dependency and awful land use policy.
“Americans are increasingly hungry for Italian piazzas, Spanish plazas, French places, & similar squares around the globe. But the joy of experiencing life in these public squares leaves some travelers disappointed when they return to the States.”

Don’t let ANYONE tell you it HAS to be that way.
Americans are hungry for community. So why don’t we have more European-style squares? | CNN
As travel abroad has become common for more Americans, many have enjoyed Europe’s vibrant squares. Why doesn’t the United States have more of that kind of gathering spot and is change afoot?

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.

Why is sex-as-punishment or sex-as-suffering elevated as art, but as soon as you see characters having sex for the pure pleasure of it, it's immediately dismissed? Why do we have so many graphic depictions of sexual assault and sexual trauma and so very few of sexual fulfillment? Rly makes u think
