I still think this might be the funniest video I've ever seen

Very sad that Tom Petty died before he got to star in my movie about Tom Petty losing his memory and having to recreate his life by visiting every Hard Rock Cafe in the world.

The video for Don’t Come Around Here No More by Tom Petty came on randomly on the tv when I was in my grandparents house when I was around 5 or 6 and it wrecked me, particularly the part where Alice turns into cake and they slice her up

An adult woman in an Alice In Wonderland dress (blue with a white apron) lies on a checkerboard patterned table as Tom Petty in a purple suit and big purple top hat cuts into her ribs with a big knife. Her body is cake. Various other people are gathered around waiting for cake. The wall and floors of the room are also black and white checkboard

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce.
There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack th Show more

Pope, would you please shut the fuck up about matters you do not understand?
You're not an Ai influencer, no one elected you, and you have absolutely no weight in this debate and you're being used as a mouthpiece to sway public opinion. how many local models do you run?

Every time I see a serial killer tv show advertised I think of this

My dad used to work with Ted Bundy at the University of Utah and every Friday my dad would say, "See ya Monday-Bundy" and I can't imagine how much Ted actually thought about murdering him for
it.

We had to say goodbye to Mash this morning. He was 16. He was the best boy and my little shadow and work from home colleague. We’re absolutely devastated.

Mash, a tan miniature dachshund with quite a lot of grey in his face, sits on a green sofa in front of a window. He’s looking at the camera alertly, his soft, floppy ears perked up to a potential treat or compliment

The raw visceral hatred some men have for women, at least women who step out of line, is shocking. I know it sounds like some sorta "one of the good ones" ploy but I am genuinely taken aback when I see it because I think: I had a fairly normal socialisation as a man in the west, how did I miss this?

There's a moment early on that's just footage of Elon Musk balding and in khakis walking down an office hallway in the late 90s and the entire audience burst out laughing. If Musk is made aware of audience reactions like this I think he might actually crash out.

It still makes me really happy that Richard Karn decided to tell everyone he wasn't going to do NFTs with a smiling picture of himself. What a great way to do anything.

In purely practical terms the Ministers for Enterprise and Finance should be leathering the head off the Minister for abject racism for trying to economically screw up the country. It’s wrong on human, moral, intellectual and decency terms. It’s corrosive to society. And it’s economically illiterate

Two builders have been working on my neighbour’s house this week and they fucking hate each other. I can see and hear them from my office window and there’s a real possibility I’ll be called as a witness when they kill each other.
