I was relieved to look up "comfortability" in the Merriam Webster app and find zero results.
"The sexualization of men" 😂 This person had better not watch Mad Max and Road Warrior! It's just one big leather dad party.
Men-the accursed gender
My wife saved me from the tragedy of packing all black crew socks on a trip where I'll be wearing shorts daily. That's true love.
Off to Miami tomorrow for two days, then jumping on a cruise ship to cruise the Bahamas for just shy of a week. I really need this vacation!
I was hoping the pigeon community wouldn't see this

People who automatically assume text is AI-generated because it uses em dashes really annoy me. I've been using them LONG before AI. I've even memorized the Mac keyboard shortcuts for en dash and em dash. (Yes, I'm a nerd, and a man of culture who knows how to use an en dash) 😆
You may not like it, but this is what peak localization looks like (Asterix: Mega Madness (PS1, 2001))
So yeah. Apparently, posting on Bluesky is not the way to find an artist. Lots of bot/scam replies, only a couple legit ones. How the heck is one supposed to find an artist these days?! Even on ArtStation and other portfolio sites, I see so much AI artwork. I just don't trust most of these folks.

Gotta love the “or stocks” part. Like Gemini realized its first answer was nuts so it tried to wedge in a better one.
Tonight's the first time this Kavinsky tribute piece ("The Final Call") finally sounds like everything has gelled together, and I no longer hate it. 😅 Now it just needs an entire beginning.
never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
Had a brief Zoom chat the other day with drummer Fred Coury, from the band Cinderella. Nicest dude ever!
I always try to briefly acknowledge the deaths of artists, but don't always feel deeply affected by their passing. But this time, my heart sank as I read the news. RIP Vincent. I'm sad that his life and amazing potential were cut short so early.

The Man in the High Castle destroyed every swastika prop after filming, so nothing could end up as a souvenir or extremist symbol.
People need to be more careful accusing blogs of doing this. This person provides no evidence of their claim. I personally see nothing that smells of LLMs. www.worseonpurpose.com

After reading several of the articles from the site they all read like they were written by AI, not an actual journalist. So take all of the information with lots of salt and fact check independently.
This is kind of an incredible website: Why your stuff stopped lasting, who profited, and what's still built right.

New: the highly controversial AI music generator Suno was hacked. The hacker sent us Suno source code; it shows the company scraped YouTube Music, Deezer, and Genius. In all, Suno scraped *decades* worth of music from the internet. Obviously didn't pay artists www.404media.co/hack-reveals...
The logout icon for @reelcrafter.com is a person jumping out of a window. It's been that way for almost two years, and not once has anyone brought it up. 😆 I wonder how many have even noticed!
