When people talk about how AI is going to help human beings connect and communicate, it always sounds crazy -- but saying that AI will enhance dating apps is ESPECIALLY demented. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

‘It’s almost like we never even spoke’: AI is making everyone on dating apps sound charming

Dating apps say AI can help people who are too busy, shy or abrasive to win dates. But a growing number of singles are finding that AI makes dating more complicated.

What do I want from Democrats in Congress? I want a haka. I want heckling when the GOP spews lies. I want no votes. I want filibusters. I WANT YOU TO TAKE THE WRENCH THEY'VE THROWN INTO THE RUNNING OF THE COUNTRY & I WANT YOU TO THROW IT THE FUCK BACK AT THEM. I want a fucking blue tsunami in 2026.

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.

A parking lot showing a cybertruck in one spot, next to a car that has built a cybertruck-esque shell around it out of green plastic. It's really hard to describe exactly how silly this vehicle looks next to the green car.

Maybe I should actually start using the #comic tag. www.newyorker.com/contributors...

Father and son fishing, and the man says "Son, don't listen to anyone who tells you that your dreams are unattainable. They probably assume you have something really big in mind."

panel 3: the boss continues speaking-- "to make this company shine." in the background are several pictures of the boss with the words "Best boss" on them.
panel 4: Switching to the employee side, You see the employees are looking at a search engine (Goofle) Where they are searching "Open jobs near me immediately help"

I wrote a silly song about how much I hate Elon musk, but now I'm wondering how people make music for songs when they don't know how to play ukulele... So I guess for now it's just a poem about my hatred

Welp. I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.

ID: FB post from Stacey Bias. Reads “Check in on your queer friends with ADHD/AuDHD right now cuz their Justice Sensitivity combined with their Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria means that they are both acutely aware of how f*cked up things are *and* also feel personally responsible for fixing it *while* dealing with the helplessness inherent in the reality that individual action is not gonna do it this time. This means that their brains/bodies are going into overdrive and also that they are feeling guilty for any kind of self-care or joy in their lives because their brain weasels are telling them that resting or being happy while others cannot/are not is selfish. It’s an exhausting state and we’re not OK.”

TikTok was banned, but everyone just started communicating through interpretive dance in the streets. The government, confused, accidentally banned the streets.

Okay, so here's the deal: I love having goals. Very goal oriented. So my new project is to go to the newsky feed (thats where the new users show up) and recommend the feeds they might like. In case anyone sees this, I promise I'm not a bot. I'm just autistic and kinda funny.

If someone steals my car, that sucks, but at least I understand wanting a car. Trump and his ghoulish followers don't seem to have anything that makes them happy. They just want people hurting and to make the world worse. I don't know what to do with that. Fuck every single Trump voter
