Gunther von Hagens, the scientist behind the popular and polarizing traveling exhibitions of human corpses, has died at 81.

makes me think about that old heritage minute infotainment segment "the medium IS the message" m.youtube.com/watch?v=QNKp... ai supposedly being an extraction medium.. the age of parasitic plagiarism and its projectile poops are upon us I guess

I don’t want to be too sensationalist about this but also I’m the least violent person in the world and I think if someone said this to my face I’d hit them

i was always about the no auto correct typo life as my poor friends in chats with me can attest being subjected to lol

Manisha Krishnan@manishakrishnan.bsky.social · last wk.

Authors and journalists are doing more first-person (hello 2010s blogging) and embracing "mistakes" in writing to prove they're not chatbots. There's even an “anti-Grammarly" app that leaves in typos and signs off "sent from my iPhone" to create more authenticity: www.wired.com/story/more-t...

my babies looking just like me and my bro when we were young watching the same educational material lol the times change, the meanings rhyme

the idea is to vinyl wallpaper the side his bed is against, and a runner rug below like this so it's like his bed is a spaceship watching the world below anyway, i already have mattress and other things because i bought all this almost 2 years ago.. welcome to my long term planning, children

turns out i will probably be hosting some fam over next week, so i will be busy putting a guest room together--and by that, i mean putting my 2-year-old son's "big kid" room together early with outerspace wallpaper and full-sized bed lol.

stay creative. after Baby Beluga (1980) 🐳, I didn’t worry about how I would top that.. just kept growing as a person and musically. 14 years later came Bananaphone! 🍌 and 32 years after that, Penny Penguin. 🐧
