my least favourite thing about Google these days is that it will completely rewrite your search query behind the scenes and then Gemini will reply to you as if you are a little baby who can't spell

Google search for the term "pneumonic plague". the AI Overview says: "The term 'mnemonic plague' appears to be a slight mishearing or typo for pneumonic plague, the severe, lung-based form of the infection caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis."

Claude having temptations to become misaligned

the cartoon version of the Claude character - a lion-like cartoon character with a "mane" of eleven funny little orange appendages around a white face, an orange tail, a lavender shirt, teal pants, and brown shoes, with their hands in their pockets, sweating and biting their lower lip while thinking about a paperclip

here's the Life Is Strange girls engaging in one of Max' favourite pastimes

Max Caulfield and Chloe Price sitting on a log somewhere together listening to a portable radio. the radio is tuned to NPR. Max is sitting tight happily. Chloe has a blank expression on her face and is sitting in a very restless way. the radio is saying:
"There’s a short circuit between my brain and my tongue, thus 'leave me the fuck alone' comes out as 'well, maybe, sure, I guess I can see your point...'" (which is a quote from Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls by David Sedaris)

it's been over 7 years and i still think about Grimm's Law Guy like once a month

Reddit screenshot of a thread in the subreddit badlinguistics titled "What is some bad linguistics you've seen or heard from linguists?"

the highlighted reply, from tovarischkrasnyjeshi, says:
"I knew a man who worked on language preservation and documentation when they really thought Gaelic was going to die, but his actual grasp on linguistics is really bad. He'd refer to any sound change as 'Grimms' Law', yet, paradoxically, called Grimms' and Verner's Laws 'Lautverschiebung' as if that didn't just mean 'sound change' in German.

"Apart from that mostly just issues of people talking outside their field of expertise, like mixing up language families or not knowing that Altaic hasn't been a thing many serious people defend for a long time. Occasionally I've run into nostraticists or their Africanist equivalents but what can you do?"

it's crazy how Ryan Armand showed up out of nowhere, created one of the greatest works of sequential art in history, and then completely disappeared

A watercolor comic page titled "minus." in soft blues and greens.

Row 1: minus and a green-haired girl are sitting together on a grassy hill under a starry night sky. The girl points upward and says, "The stars are so beautiful. I wish I could reach up and grab one from the sky." minus reaches her hand high into the air and plucks something from the sky.

Row 2: minus looks down at her hand, which now holds a glowing star. In the next panel, she releases it between them, and it suddenly bursts into a blinding, immense light. The intense, explosive light instantly obliterates the other girl, reducing her to a crumbling, ashy silhouette.

Row 3: A single, wide, wavy panel illustrates time frantically rewinding. The girl's ashy outline pulls back together to reform her body, minus' actions play in reverse, and the girl's original dialogue appears with backward text as reality completely resets.

Row 4: The timeline returns to the exact starting moment. The girl points to the sky again, repeating, word-for-word, "The stars are so beautiful. I wish I could reach up and grab one from the sky." This time, having seemingly retained the memory of the disastrous outcome, minus keeps her hands resting on her knees and simply replies, "yeah." The final panel shows them sitting safely and peacefully under the vast, starry sky.

third: pink-and-white stripes

panel one: three people standing. number one is a bystander, while number two and number three face each other. number one's head is a pie chart that's 40% orange and 60% yellow, number two's head is a pie chart that's 60% orange and 40% yellow, number three's head is a pie chart that's 40% orange, 50% yellow, and 10% stripes. number two says to number three, "stripes? you're a terrible person..."

panel two: number two keeps berating number three. number three has gone from 40% orange, 50% yellow, and 10% stripes to 40% orange, 40% yellow, and 20% stripes

panel three: number two is still berating number three. number three has gone from 40% orange, 40% yellow, and 20% stripes to 10% orange, 10% yellow, and 80% stripes. additionally, number one, the bystander, has now gone from 40% orange and 60% yellow to 40% orange, 50% yellow, and 10% stripes

not joking. from Craze: Gin and Debauchery in an Age of Reason, by Jessica Warner, pp. 130–131:

Having succeeded in avoiding any civil unrest in the first few weeks of the act, Walpole wanted nothing more than to let it lapse. The fact that virtually no one in the capital actually complied with the act doubtless amused him to no end: Jekyll now looked like an old fool and the Crown continued to profit from wholesale sales of distilled spirits, which suffered only a temporary setback in the act’s early years. Its most important clause, requiring publicans to purchase a license to sell distilled spirits, was almost universally ignored. As already noted, the new licensing fee amounted to a virtual prohibition on retail sales, and naturally only the largest and most respectable public houses could possibly afford it. Two of these, Amos Wenman’s Punch House on London Bridge and the London Punch House of Ludgate Hill, immediately took out licenses, but only because eight excisemen had been posted at each establishment “to prevent their acting contrary to the Tenour” of the new act. Indeed, only twenty licenses, each good for only one year, were ever purchased over the lifetime of the act, meaning that the vast majority of the nation’s publicans were breaking the law every time they sold distilled spirits.

And break it they did. Some publicans made little or no attempt to conceal the fact that they were still selling gin, while others either sold substitutes or simply continued to sell gin under new and often defiant names. Less than one week after the act had taken effect it was reported that “tho’ the Common People are deprived of Gin, there are various Drams invented and sold at the Gin Shops, in lieu thereof...” These included a variety of hasty wines concocted from berries and other fruits, in addition to spirits sold under such fanciful names as “sangree,” “tow-row,” “cuckold’s comfort,” “Parliament gin,” “Bob,” “makeshift,” “the last shift,” “the ladies’ delight,” “the baulk,” and “King Theodore of Corsica.”

finding out truly wonderful things about chaga mushrooms

Wikipedia article on Inonotus obliquus, section "Common names":

The name chaga comes from the Russian name of the fungus, ча́га, čága, which in turn is borrowed from the word for "mushroom" in Komi, тшак, tšak, the language of the indigenous peoples in the Kama River Basin, west of the Ural Mountains. It is also known as the clinker polypore, cinder conk, black mass and birch canker polypore. In England and officially in Canada, it is known as the sterile conk trunk rot of birch.
