A silver lining to the orange manchild and pandemic years on #socialmedia has been discovering who in my wider circle of acquaintances has beliefs incompatible with mine. There were a few surprises. Just had to disconnect from someone whose views I don't want to see or be associated with.
Ministry's latest music videos are 95% AI-slop, but this screengrab from "We Hate" is too good not to share. #TheShining #horrormovies #ministry #industrialmetal
Just heard an apt term for a terrible mother: "Egg donor". I guess that would make an equally bad dad a "sperm donor".
After watching Sergeant Curtis's educational bodycam video presentations on YouTube, I've concluded that American drug mules need to go aroooound #Arkansas 😂
"A third of monthly uploads to Apple Music are 100% AI-generated, but AI music accounted for less than 0.5% of actual listening." It's prob. worse at Spotify. There's proof that Spotify itself has been creating fake artists.

I've heard that the green stuff is more potent nowadays, as evidenced by Star Trek writers' latest episode. I mean, even Roddenberry wouldn't come up with this. #startrek #startreksnw
Both at the same time, in 1989. I didn't even have a CD player yet, so I had to get someone to tape them for me. #gothrock #ambient The Cure album had CD-only bonus tracks, while the Brian Eno CD couldn't be released on LP because it was a continuous 61-minute track.

A custom 80th birthday caricature, incl. personal details and private jokes, set at Paarl Golf Club. Nowadays, I create my cartoons using a digital drawing tablet to achieve a clean, polished finish, while preserving the charm of a hand-drawn illustration. #CaricatureArtist #CapeTown #SouthAfrica
This woman saved my client's life. To thank her, he commissioned a caricature celebrating her life, incl. a personal element represented by her breaking through Pink Floyd's "The Wall". Caricatures are the most personalised gifts imaginable! 😊 #caricatureartist #caricaturist #capetown #southafrica

This caught my eye in last week's #StarTrekSNW episode: A shuttle named "Curie." Marie Curie was of course the first woman to win a Nobel Prize. In fact, she was the first person to win it twice. Reminds me of the Voyager episode about Amelia Earhart.

OpenClaw is a really bad idea right now. I'm curious to see how Apple will implement agentic AI, since two of Apple's major selling points are privacy and security. I'm actually glad it's so far behind with AI – it means it can learn from others' mistakes. #openclaw #apple #agenticai
