Whenever shopping, I remember how many useful things bicarbonate soda can do.

It’s just that I forget how many times I’ve had that thought.

You know it’s getting real when this turns up in an Australian’s instagram feed.

Inoculated this #miniworld with pleurotus ostreatum and turkey tails at build time. I don’t think this is either, but healthy mycelium = healthy system.

Begonia pavonina and friends.

Horror stories continue, though this one has a happy ending.

Pregnancy and birth seems to be a theme at the moment. This screenshot doesn’t look THAT bad… but a second after this it got truly disturbing.

Pregnant two headed woman in the hospital, reasons ambiguous.

More horrific genAI I’ve seen on instagram.

Please note: some of this is disturbing. So I’m going to put some space here.

No visible barnacles… but I too would have that look on my face if I was in her position. It also seems that perhaps the weird little babies bite.

So cute it makes me want to scrub my hands and burn all my clothing.

Let me subject you to some of the horrors I’ve seen this week.

Some of the accounts explicitly indicate they are using AI. It looks like the bots are running riot and producing some really disturbing stuff.

Gen AI is being used in some mildly horrifying ways.

On Facebook there’s someone who posts videos about being a lobsterman. One of the things he does is clean off barnacles from the ones he’s throwing back.

I’m now being served some of the weirdest and most disturbing stuff on instagram.

The stochastic parrot made a pretty good guess but delivered the wrong answer with all the confidence of somebody who has more of a comment than a question.

Phalenopsis performing to expectations. Venus fly trap, not so much.

Begonia pavonina, a slight hint of inflorescence.
