The grammatical 'colon' and the anatomical 'colon' are not etymologically related. The anatomical 'colon' comes from the Greek ‘kolon’ which means “large intestine.” The grammatical 'colon' comes from the Greek ‘kōlon’ which means “limb.” Both are a means to an end.

In July, we released Courtney 50.0. It may not be the fastest writing machine, but it has been honed fifty years of intensive language training. Based on the benchmarks demonstrated by this chart, Courtney 50.0 crushes the competition so significantly that we should have used a log axis.

An incredibly long graphic, using the graphic in the post text at the very bottom (a chart showing Open AI vs Grok vs Fable release date on the X axis, and model number on the Y axis). There is a long piece of whitespace, and then Courtney 49.0 and Courtney 50.0 are graphed at the very top.

An illustration done mostly with digital colored pencils. Ok, so we have a wooden coffin in the classic top-heavy hexagon shape. The coffin is propped up at an angle on nothing against a background of gray-blue paint splatters as a spooky sheet ghost rises out of it. Although it’s not a real sheet as it’s translucent and there’s nothing inside of it except a gape-mouthed green skull in the approximate head position within the sheet. The ghost is wearing a big. floppy, black witch’s hat and there’s a little brown bat hanging down from the wide brim. The ghost’s arms are extended holding a jack o’ lantern with a one-toothed frowny face carved into it. Popping out of the jack o’ lantern is a a black cat with green eyes balancing the cap of the pumpkin on his head. And on the stem of the pumpkin cap is a very serious-looking brown speckled owl. A series of spooky speech balloons is chained together around all this , each balloon containing one word and associating back tot he spooks and creatures named in the reverse order listed. The lettering in the balloons is red and drippy and reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

An array of green rectangles (each bearing an icon of a hand with crossed fingers inside a circle with rays), and white rectangles that indicate the letters in the secret phrase contestants are trying to guess. The board is not yet solved and reads like this:

Standing next to the board in a shiny pink and maroon evening gown and ready to turn around newly-guessed letters is a woman whose head is a human hand with crossed fingers.

Below the board in the space where viewers at home are informed what type of phrase is in play it simply reads ‘PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE’

Digital lettering in a kind of fat marker style colored in bluish-greens. The letters have been extruded and warped back into space in reddish-maroon overwritten in in yellow-green inlines. Everything is outlined in white and set against an irregular mottled grayish-blue background shape. Perched in amongst the letters is seated a small pink bunny with its cheek resting in one paw, looking bored and impatient. The lettering, of course, reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

A digital illustration of five generalized female figures – just outlines and fills with no details, facial features – holding hands and dancing in an circle. Vaguely based on but much less good than Matisse's 'The Dance' painting which was probably on a greeting card your aunt gave you once. They are on a grass green and sky blue background under purple lettering reading 'Maybe it will happen today.'

I-638 is the most extreme MAGA measure of its kind in the country because it targets girls with invasive genital exams. Over 100 doctors and other medical professionals have signed a statement rejecting I-638. Join them and vote NO on I-638 this November. #NoHateWAState

A screenshot of an article from Everett Community is on a dark purple background. The article’s header image shows a school’s tennis court through a chainlink fence. The headline says: Brian Heywood’s initiative wants to inspect your daughter’s body. Below the headline, an excerpt from the article reads: The No Hate in WA State coalition, which includes the Washington State Nurses Association and Planned Parenthood, says health care professionals are clear about what that means in practice: a medically unnecessary genital or pelvic exam. They describe such an exam as potentially traumatizing, and in some cases physically harmful, particularly for younger students. A pale purple footer with dark purple text says “Vote NO on I-638”

On August 27, ICE arrested Milo Yiannopoulos, an illegal alien from the United Kingdom, at the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) in Kenner, Louisiana. Yiannopoulos legally entered the country on May 14, 2019, through New York City, New York. He chose to overstay his welcome in violation of our nation’s laws.

Yiannopoulos was issued a final order of removal by an Immigration Judge on July 22, after failing to show up for his immigration hearing. He will remain in ICE custody pending removal.

Being in detention is a choice. We encourage all illegal aliens to take control of their departure with the CBP Home App. The United States is offering illegal aliens $3,000 and a free flight to self-deport now. We encourage every person here illegally to take advantage of this offer and reserve the chance to come back to the U.S. the right legal way to live the American dream. If not, you will be arrested and deported without a chance to return.

A portrait done in digital paint of Shelley Duvall portraying Wendy Torrance as seen in The Shining (1980). It’s a head and shoulders shot of her with unkempt black hair with bangs, and wearing a chunky knit turtleneck under a green heavy flannel button up. She is viewed looking up from a low vantage at her tired-looking, somewhat haggard face as she looks down at something that suddenly has her deeply concerned. The background behind her is paper toned and has a single repeated line typewritten over and over disappearing top and bottom: ‘Maybe it will happen today.’
