I don't know who needs to hear this but I'm not patronizing your business if you use AI to generate your posters or your menu. I won't speak for anyone else, but I certainly know I'm not the only one. Give your kids a pack of crayons and have them make your poster. Give a neighborhood kid 40 bucks to draw something up for you. College kids are always looking for work, hit them up.

If you're too lazy or cheap to market your business, why is it worth using?

how hard is it to send a boilerplate "while your credentials are impressive, we've decided to go with another candidate" email, seriously

Post your favourite Disney Princess. Wrong answers only. You guys had better not laugh when I admit I wanted to date this dog as a kid

Jenna from Balto (1995), an animated film loosely based on the 1925 Nome diphtheria serum run. She is a suspiciously attractive red Siberian Husky. Seriously, this is like a supermodel dog. I would bet money that furries were involved in this character design.

These are breathtaking, they remind me of those new pictures of the Sun's surface that just came out last week

$Image of the Sun's surface as captured by the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Maui. It is a beautiful combination of bright yellow and orange flames, interspersed with darker reddish spots where the flaming gas isn't as hot. The colors flow into each other in fluid, almost fractal-like patterns.$

One of my alma maters, the one that's financially struggling because their overpaid administrators constantly do poorly-thought-out shit, posted a job opening for an adjunct faculty member, so I went to look at the listing and

Like you can't tell me there was never a guy whose face just screamed "Sardianian long-eared bat"

I might just be salty because it's (correctly) pointing out "hey kiddo, you've been using four em dashes per one thousand words, do you maybe wanna experiment with some other punctuation marks," though

Screenshot of Ellipsus' "Punctuation Habits" sidebar on a story I'm writing, showing the number of expressive punctuation marks (e.g. not periods or commas) per 1,000 words. It shows 4 em dashes per 1,000 words. No other punctuation mark is above 1 per 1,000 words.

"Transphobes think trans women corrupt womanhood with maleness, and trans men are women corrupted by maleness" is gonna stick with me for awhile

Screenshot from Julia Serano's essay "Penises, Privilege, and Feminist & LGBTQ+ Purity Politics." Text:
Here’s another way of framing this “gender critical”/cultural feminist perspective: Trans female/feminine people are viewed as inherently “contaminating” (we “corrupt” those we come into contact with), whereas trans male/masculine people are viewed as merely “contaminated” (i.e., they’ve been “corrupted” by someone else). As a result, the latter may be “redeemable,” at least to some extent or in certain cases. (This is not all that dissimilar from the aforementioned scenario of a bisexual woman “redeeming” herself by renouncing her feelings for men and claiming that she was “really lesbian” all along.) Cultural feminists also tend to view trans male/masculine people as relatively “safe” given that they are supposedly “innately female” and “lacking” the organ that imparts sexual stigma (and perpetrates sexual violence) upon other people.

Me when AI companies will collapse without billions of dollars in revenue:

Two images of Squidward Tentacles sun tanning. In the first, he sits up and lifts his sunglasses to peer at something to his right. In the second, having judged whatever nonsense is going on to not be worth his attention, he has lowered them and laid back down.

This was not a good movie by any metric, but Aaliyah as Akasha hits the dopamine switch in my brain like nothing else

Movie poster for Queen of the Damned (2002). Aaliyah stands in the forground in a vaguely Egyptian-styled metal headdress, bra and choker combo, looking like the vampire queen of my heart. Stuart Townsend as Lestat is there too, I guess.

No, I suppose it wouldn't be anything like driving while blackout drunk, losing a tire, driving to the casino on the bare rim and abandoning your squad car with the keys in it in the parking lot, would it, Cocchi

“This was unlike anything our team has ever experienced,” Nick Cocchi, the Hampden county sheriff, said of the incident, which was captured on video released by his office and posted to YouTube by MassLive.

I had a dream that you needed a legal license to have a mustache, and trans men in particular were really upset about this for some reason. I made a mockup of what one would look like

A sample Mississippi driver's license for "Connor Sample." It has been edited so that the "Driver License" heading instead reads "Mustache License," and the license class has been changed to "Handlebar." The man in the sample photo has a badly-drawn handlebar mustache added.

Bsky originally refused to let me post this, and while I know it's just because this site is a mess, I'm choosing to believe this is a censorship thing
