They developed a significant cult following, before Nabisco unceremoniously pulled the plug without explanation
Huh. I wonder what would happen if we all started saying Pierre Polievre is a Pinata filled with full sized candy bars?

Adam P Knave@adampknave.com · 6d agoSo Pull-Ups brand has two new characters starring in their ads. This is not a joke. Meet TERD and YUREEN. Yup. YUP! Terd and Yureen. Animated friends for your kids. This won't result in anything strange. "No I don't want to flush! Terd and Yureen will drown!" Nope. It's FINE.
I'd say *Don't* (obvious wink) do this Ottawa, but being Ottawa, we'd probably just live with Penis Graffiti.

Friends/acquaintances/strangers: I’m a soon-to-be 61-y/o retired journalist/speechwriter/media relations guy about to go back into school as an undergrad. I’m also a big LLM/AI skeptic. It’s been suggested I blog my experience as an old-timey student who doesn’t use AI. Would anyone read that?
Katie Mack@astrokatie.com · last wk.I hardly know any researchers other than myself in my field who aren’t using LLMs extensively in their work. In my field, they’re being used mostly for coding assistance, computations (Claude is getting quite good at this), reference searches, and conceptual “discussions.” Some writing help too.

"You have tiny 16-year-old-baby lungs, so you can't go out onto the cat porch tonight because of what humanity has done to our shared planet" is unfortunately a massive failure of cross-species communication, so I just have to seem like the asshole.

I hear people speak Franglais all the time. Sometimes I hear people pull out some Spanglish. But I'm pretty sure I heard Espanglais for the first time about 2 weeks ago. It took me this long to come up with the portmanteau
