Modern Science

A dark-mode Reddit-style interface shows a post in r/DebateEvolution by u/CharlesDarwin titled "I think..." with a blue "Theory" tag. The post proposes that species are descended with modification from other species through natural selection, asks for constructive feedback, and includes a vintage notebook page featuring the handwritten words "I think" above a branching tree diagram.

The post has a score of -327 with 217 comments. Below it, several highly upvoted comments dismiss the idea using common misconceptions about evolution. The visible comments read: "So let me get this straight. You're telling me a FISH had a BABY with a MONKEY and now here we are? LOL. Nice fanfic."; "Where's your proof tho"; "Evolution is just a theory. So is gravity. Doesn't mean either are real."; "This goes against GOD'S WORD. Downvoted."; and "If we evolved from monkeys why are there still monkeys. Checkmate."

Actual exchange I read on Bluesky in 2026 OP: "Datacenters? More like CONCENTRATION CAMPS." reply: "We already have concentration camps with ICE." OP: "These are going to be even worse."

Meerdragons #DragonTuesday

Seven slender, earth-toned dragon-like animals stand alert around a cluster of burrows in a vast sunlit grassland. A clear blue sky, two small clouds, and faint distant mountains emphasize the open landscape.

Using AI to make art always has me learning about new concepts and histories. I am constantly refining the words I use and my understanding of them, trying to match idea to description to output. I can't imagine replacing artists with AI. Their experience and insight is invaluable. I wish I had it!

"The problem with using AI is that it is sycophantic and unoriginal. It only tells you what you want to hear, shutting off your brain" she copy-pasted into the replies for the 8th time today, having read it once in a highly upvoted meme on r/aiHaters 3 years ago.

Using AI to code feels like the same intellectual task as non-AI coding. The most interesting, essential aspects of coding all happen upstream from specific implementation. Good architecture all but writes the code for you. If you are figuring it out while typing code, you're making sloppy code.

Out on the town having the time of my life with a bunch of friends. They're all just out of frame, laughing too.

A close-up portrait of an anthropomorphic canine woman with cream-and-tan fur, long auburn hair swept over one eye, green eyes, freckles, and a small pink diamond gemstone on her forehead. She wears a white collared dress shirt and a black necktie, smiling with a slightly awkward, open-mouthed expression while glancing toward the left side of the frame.

Yowza!

A 1940s-inspired cartoon illustration shows an anthropomorphic canine woman seated at a round table with a white tablecloth, wearing a black feminine tuxedo jacket with a deep V-shaped white lapel, a black bow tie, and white gloves. She rests her chin in her gloved hands with an open-mouthed, delighted expression while two red heart shapes extend from her empty eye sockets.

Made With Care

A black goat-like centaur robot in a checkered apron prepares dough at a wooden table in a warmly lit rustic kitchen. Vegan ingredients, bread, cookware, herbs, and a wood stove surround her; A decorative wooden sign reads “made with care.”

I don't think the anti-AI movement has many Hank Green moments left. As an example, he is very affable. The apocalyptic rhetoric just doesn't match everyday experience. It's already a big ask to boycott any entertainment. And anyone that *hates* Hank Green winds up sounding like an absolute crank.

Satyrcraft #CtrlAltCreate

A Minecraft-style voxel scene shows a gray robotic Satyress cooking inside a small wooden house. The robot has a blocky goat head with curved horns, a rectangular torso, and limbs built from stacked cuboid segments, standing at a stone furnace while stirring a steaming pan of orange food.

The kitchen contains a crafting table with a potted white flower, a chest beneath a wall-mounted torch, and large windows overlooking a grassy block prairie with trees, flowers, rolling hills, and a blue sky with square clouds. The furnace glows with orange fire beneath the pan, and the scene is rendered in a detailed block-based style reminiscent of Minecraft.

Cookie & Ongajin presents - 2 week gaming challenge #CtrlAltCreate Starting tomorrow August 1st Feel free to interpret this challenge in whatever way you see fit. The texts are to guide if needed, not rules. Just have some fun with it! 😊 With @ongajin.ai

Side-Eye Teefa

Two side-by-side panels show an anthropomorphic canine character with cream-and-tan fur, green eyes, long reddish hair, and a small pink diamond on her forehead, wearing a pink cropped hoodie against a softly blurred outdoor background of water, grass, and sky.

In the left panel, she faces to the right with her head turned only slightly toward the viewer while her eyes glance sideways toward the viewer, giving a wary, awkward expression. In the right panel, her body and head remain in nearly the same position, but her eyes shift to look forward in the direction she is facing, recreating the familiar two-frame awkward look monkey reaction meme.

happy August. I’m on a poster. come watch me read poems i wrote

I made this a while ago and have been on the lookout for quotes to use it on. But every time I see one that fits, it is too depressingly real. It's always too much to actually subject other people to. I suppose "funny reactionary / supremacist malaise" is unlikely content. Feel free to steal.

Square black-and-white image of a noir-inspired masked vigilante shown from the chest up, facing directly toward the viewer. The figure wears a weathered fedora and trench coat, with a white cloth mask marked by symmetrical black inkblot patterns; a large blank white speech bubble with a black outline fills the lower portion of the frame, its pointed tail aimed at the character's covered mouth.

You've been asked to clean and have been provided with the materials to do so.

A comic scene shows Teefa in a white air suit facing a fox sheriff, rabbit, and black cat beside a sealed bunker door.

A rectangle above the characters reads "If you boil the Pact down to one rule, it's: Do not say 'I appreciate the pushback'. Or you will go outside."

Instead of using AI to surface papers to read, Hank Green should have done the scientific thing and simply agreed with the most popular answers on Reddit.

A cream-and-tan anthropomorphic canine with long auburn hair, green eyes, freckles, and a pink diamond forehead gem sits on a couch in a cozy room, smiling toward the viewer while cuddling a small rabbit-like creature with tan fur, antlers, and rainbow-tipped feathered wings. She wears a white ringer T-shirt with purple trim reading "WOLPY FAN CLUB" above and below an illustration of the same winged, antlered bunny surrounded by small pink hearts, along with dark shorts with purple trim; sunlight streams through a nearby window, with lavender blankets, pillows, framed artwork, shelves, and houseplants in the softly blurred background.

Datacenter?

I have been deceived by this dangerous new technology and its potential for abuse is uncharted. On the advice of a random image from the internet, I went to the Mt. Hollywood Tunnel at 34.123647, -118.300248 and it did NOT take me to Toon Town! blog.google/products-and...

A colorful, cartoon-style illustrated map shows a winding mountain road leading to the entrance of "Toon Town." At the center is a large rainbow spiral tunnel beneath an arch reading "TOON TOWN: Craziness Ahead – All Aboard!" with a road disappearing into the tunnel. A modern city skyline is visible in the distant background.

The surrounding hills are filled with winding dirt trails, trees with expressive faces, flowers, cartoon birds, and whimsical details. Wooden signs point toward locations including "Toon Trails," "Ink & Paint Club," "Acme Factory," and "Jessika's Apartments." Small cartoon hands, feet, faces, and other playful objects appear scattered throughout the landscape.

To the upper right is a roadside rest area labeled "TOON-WAY REST STOP," containing vintage cartoon-style vehicles, stacked ACME crates, an anvil, a manhole, and a banana peel. Below it is a gas station with a smiling cartoon character wearing a white captain's hat incorporated into the building, alongside a sign reading "Valiant's Gas & Shirt – Nap Service."

Curving roads continue around the right side of the image, where more anthropomorphic trees, flowers, and a long-necked cartoon bird appear. The overall style is bright, whimsical, and densely packed with visual gags and references to classic cartoon imagery.
