As a tall person I cannot offer to reach something on a high shelf for a stranger, yet if they ask me I must oblige. This is the law of the giants

Since we're all talking AI tools again, here's my lived experience: I work with coders who use AI to help write code, and their AI has been pretty well trained to write it the way *they* write code. It makes it pretty easy for them to test and debug. But they *know* how to and still do write code.

they’re doing nothing to me tomorrow #controlgroup

what if we kissed in the House of Leaves

Snake venom has no effect if the snake harbors no ill will towards you. Unfortunately that’s one of the big reasons they bite you, the ill will

Sometimes YouTube will recommend me videos from local news stations that are nowhere near where I live, and today's video thumbnail may be an all-timer.

If I stopped writing at 1am last night before going to bed, do those words count towards today's word count or do I have to start over?

My favorite part of this is how Alison pronounces "Golgari" so that "Golgari Glenn Ross" scans.

Missed it by a couple weeks, but the episode of Friday Nights Strange Brew just turned 10 years, and to this day has one of the most remembered scenes from anything we've ever put to film. Time stamped for your enjoyment. Shout out to @alisontheperson.bsky.social! youtu.be/ewmGGRCRKlE?...

being a billionaire and on the internet all day is crazy to me. if i had even five million dollars, you would not find me online whatsoever.

The last time I went to the dentist, when I was checking in at their little kiosk, it asked me if I consented to having my session recorded for AI processing.

Definitionally, these are not “friends.”

I love the owner of my local diner because most of the time he uses their social media to post about specials and celebrate milestones and then sometimes he just posts a picture of a corvette. Not one he owns, but just one he thinks is cool.

I have received 23 spam calls in the last 48 hours. Over 35 this week. What the fuck is going on?

I love this website, where someone can ask for recommendations for bookstores and stationery stores in a city and get recommended camera shops.

One thing I love about myself as a writer is I can pump out like 5000 words in a day that feel pretty solidly written. One thing I hate about myself as a writer is that this happens about once every six months for only a few days at a time.

It’s a bad day for people named like Juan Carlos Göring and Hector Ramon Eichmann.

What’s important is that both teams had fun and played their best :)

Sleep score of 99, btw. In case anyone is curious. Over 2 hours of REM sleep. You know. In case that’s important to anyone.

Learned my lesson on Sunday.

Just saw a Waymo trying to navigate a Trader Joe’s parking lot and almost felt a twinge of sympathy for the thing.

If you followed me for my funny post this morning you don't really have to keep following me. I don't really post like that. Also I took an oath that I'd delete at 1000 followers and you're getting me dangerously close.

Before you start making gay jokes about Lindsey Graham, just know that he won’t see them, but your gay friends will. They’ll really appreciate it. You’re doing great. Thanks so much.

I think it’s honestly gross how everyone is celebrating that man’s death. Think about all the twinks who are going to struggle to make August rent now. Have some compassion.

It’s like when your food is taking a long time to come out so your server brings some free bread to apologize for the wait.

Straight couples really will exhibit the kind of PDA that’s barely acceptable at a gay club in the middle of a coffee shop.

I was one of the very few people who apparently had next week’s episode of @gamechanger.dropout.tv appear early and I did watch it and it might be my favorite episode of the season so far.

Is there anything more emblematic of this economy than to appoint a CEO who just oversaw a massive layoff and restructuring as an advisor for "Productivity and Jobs"?

I do not care about right wing chuds. I don’t want to know what they’re angry about. I don’t want to hear about what they’re saying or thinking or even doing, honestly, unless it’s trying to hurt someone in my neighborhood. Stop telling me what they think about something. I don’t care!
