A few years back I binged The State with a teen-aged Kid 1, who had taken a film class. The State had only one woman, so men were in drag multiple times each episode. When this line was uttered by Michael Ian Black in the sketch "Origami" (s3e3), I proclaimed: "IT'S DIEGETIC DRAG!" Kid 1: 🤯🤯🤯

closeup of Michael Ian Black dressed in drag as the teenager Christine in the sketch "Origami", from episode 3 of season 3 of The State

Christine, who has longer black hair, a large white hairband, and is wearing makeup says:

"I'm really a guy in drag."

My Google searches make fun of me now. 🪦

Google AI overview which reads:

No, in Stardew Valley, your chickens will not "take it personally" if you put a mayo machine in their coop; they are not sentient and do not have feelings about their eggs being used to make mayonnaise, so their happiness level will not be affected by the machine's presence.
Key points to remember:
No emotional impact:
As game characters, chickens in Stardew Valley do not have emotions or personal opinions about what happens to their eggs.
Gameplay mechanic:
Placing a mayo machine in the coop is simply a convenient way to process eggs without having to manually carry them to another location.
Community perspective:
Some players might find it a bit humorous or slightly unsettling to put a mayo machine directly in the coop, but it has no gameplay consequences.

If you're wondering about the vibe in Canada right now, I just got served this ad for a brewhouse that is just a portrait of the White House being burned down. No text, just a bigass picture of the White House burning and a link directly to their menu lolol

A gorgeous portrait of the White House entirely aflame, the smoke billowing and the flames lighting up the night sky. It sparks deep patriotic ferver. This is what democracy looks like.

Also there's a white button with blue text below the portrait. The text reads "Learn more" and if clicked it takes you to the menu of a local brewhouse.

Some of the available jewelry I'm selling over on IG!

A steel choker made of atom-shaped pendants with chain festoons and glass teardrop beads. Ellie, a thin, white, college-aged woman, is modeling the necklace on top of a background of a plasma ball. She is wearing a pink tank top.

A necklace made of silver-colored jumprings, polymer clay candy hearts, and faceted moonstone droplets. Ellie, a thin, white, college-aged woman, is modeling the necklace on top of a background of yellow roses. She is wearing a vaguely medieval sleeveless white dress.

A medium-length festoon necklace made of sterling silver chain and fluorite beads. Chainmail with various jumpring sizes encloses an octahedral fluorite formation as a fixed pendant. Ellie, a thin, white, college-aged woman, is modeling the necklace on top of a background of green clouds. She is wearing a sleeveless purple top with green sequins on the neckline and a purple butterfly hairclip.

A draping, web-like necklace made of gold-plated chains and lapis lazuli beads. Ellie, a thin, white, college-aged woman, is modeling the necklace on top of a background of yellow fireworks in a blue sky. She is wearing a handmade Spock sweater styled after Star Trek: The Original Series.

Not sure if this AI thing is working out for Spotify.

Spotify auto-generated playlist called "Angry Dad Rock Mix". The first five songs are I Just Threw Out The Love Of My Dreams by Weezer, Cherry Bomb by The Runaways, Just A Girl by No Doubt, You Oughta Know by Alanis Morisette, and I Hate Myself for Loving You by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

ARTISTS: I'm organizing a fundraiser for my friends Ibrahim, Ola, and Ashjan: three displaced students in Gaza whose homes and universities have been destroyed. We need donations of paintings, prints, sculptures, or other art for our sale! 1/

Original art for sale via the.artmageddon_2 on Instagram!! These pieces are *mostly $10 or under*--making art accessible is so important to me and I try to hold affordable sales when I can! I love how this sketchbook paint chip project turned out :)

Sketchbook cutouts on colored paint chips arranged in a rainbow.

Three drawings: a nudibranch, a person with antennae, and a fall leaf with a pomegranate slice.

Three drawings: a jellyfish with a star, a pair of neurons, and an isopod next to a mushroom.

A large rainbow arrangement of drawings, mainly featuring mythical creatures or animals. Some nudity is depicted.

20yo Kid 1 was utterly devastated by Children of Men last night. SO MANY FEELINGS that can't be expressed in words, but I can't help but share an incredible moment that I will carry forever. Weeping inconsolably during the credits, she sobbed: "I thought it would be more like Bob's Burgers!"
