Works in SF. Lives in Berkeley. Hides in trees.

Maybe Mitch McConnell isn’t dead. Instead, he’s conscious but locked in, feeling every minute stretched out to infinity, spending every second begging for his sweet final release So anyways, I had some scrambled eggs with bell peppers and sausages this morning and they were *fantastic*

AI-generated music and video sounds and looks like shit, and for a long time I didn’t have any worry about it impacting musicians and artists all that much But I found out most people keep the bullshit visual smoothing and sharpening defaults turned on with their TVs and now I’m deeply concerned

Went to “Whose Live Anyway” show for my son’s birthday and it was one of the funniest comedy shows I’ve ever seen. Improv can be super cringe sometimes but there wasn’t a single stinker the whole 90 minutes. Absolute masters of the craft on display tonight.

Every state that has Dem control needs to look like this If we’re min-maxing gerrymandering, the GOP has less to gain because they’ve relied more heavily on it for the past few decades, while Dems could probably net 40 or more seats if we focus on making districts shaped like wiggly Fire Islands

my sister got me hooked on the extremely lesbian crime dramedy “Deadloch” and my two favorite jokes so far are: —sign in an outdoor gear store saying NOW IS THE WINTER OF OUR DISCOUNT TENTS —referring to sex standing up as “portrait mode”

The thing about AI-generated media is that the more you look at it, the worse it gets, and that makes it the antithesis of real art. Anytime I watch a favorite film or look at a fantastic painting, I notice new details that make me love it more

The funniest thing about OpenAI pivoting to sexbots is that they realized it’s the only way to make real profit Can’t recoup nearly a trillion of investments from writing emails and thank you notes? Maybe get millions and millions of lonely people addicted to a love app for $99/mo

This guy was mentioned in the news and I had to look him up to if I heard it right—his name is so *absurdly* French that it sounds like what you’d get if someone had to quickly make up an alibi who lives in Montreal It’s like a German named Klaus Von Sauerkraut. Or a Brit named Benedict Cumberbatch
