Some terrifically titled papers from a discovered collection of NASA research documents found in a skip (with thanks to @juliarez.placid.horse)
A photo of a bunch of NASA research documents, with titles like "STRUCTURAL MARGINS OBSERVED IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO EXCEEDANCE", "PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS OF UNEXPECTED WOBBLE IN A RIGIDLY NON-WOBBLING SYSTEM", "OBSERVED PERFORMANCE OF COMPONENTS KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN INSTALLED BACKWARDS", "COGNITIVE LOAD IMPLICATIONS OF ACRONYMS REFERRING TO OTHER ACRONYMS", "THRMAL CHARACTERISTICS OF MATERIALS DESCRIBED AS 'PROBABLY INFLAMMABLE'", "ON THE REPEATED SURVIVAL OF SYSTEMS NEVER INTENDED TO WORK", "THE EFFECT OF CLIPBOARD ON PERCEIVED AUTHORITY IN TEST ENVIRONMENTS", "MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SUBSTANCES EXPOSED TO REPEATED MEETINGS", "ANOMALOUS RESULTS WHICH PERSIST DESPITE STRONG MANAGEMENT DISAPPROVAL", and "A PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT OF THE MOON'S APPARENT DISINTEREST IN OUR ACTIVITIES"

A version of the Simpsons "Lionel Hutz" newspaper ad modified to use the words in Keith's post.

So bright red punctuation modifies otherwise grey text from "KILL THEM ALL" to "KILL THEM ALL?" and from "NO SURVIVORS" to "NO, SURVIVORS!"

There's a scene where they're scrolling through channels on the TV and there's a quick line making fun of King of the Hill: "Bobby, I got propane in my urethra" It's been stuck in my head for decades

If/when (much more likely to be when now) the AI bubble bursts and things like ChatGPT become unavailable, I wonder what will happen to the generation of people who are become rendered useless and dumb after having ChatGPT do all their college work

You know the Pete Hegseth Signal chat thing is a real fuck up because the administration doesn't know how to spin it, and neither do all the bots on Twitter. They can't decide if Pete is playing 5D chess or the reporter is an enemy of the state.

"oh I never see your art on the TL" Okay, try liking and reposting it.
A pic of a 16 by 16 inch canvas on a H style easel, outdoors, woods in background.  On the canvas is the start of a stylized surreal oil painting of an elongated black horse surrounded by an apparently fiery background.  It seems to be standing and reflected in an invisible pool.

Shot. Chaser. Not saying I'm always right, but...
An excerpt from a recent Wired op-ed I wrote which reads: "And all the breathless milestone-marking of however-many-million signups for each new platform reminds me of the post-launch hype for titles like Star Wars: The Old Republic or Warhammer Online, whose studios proudly touted their millions of new subscribers only for those numbers to fall off a cliff after six months. Meta Threads’ 70 million signups, much touted in headlines on the day of this writing, mean little if they don’t stay. And the troubled history of platform cloning exemplified by WoW’s imitators offers little cause for optimism on that score."A headline from the CBC which reads "Threads has lost half its users since launch, Zuckerberg tells staff."

It's cool that two of the current memes on the right are simultaneously "libs are ignoring the scourge of widespread human trafficking" and "this guy under house arrest for human trafficking in Romania is awesome and based"

Texas conservatives love to say things like, "Don't California my Texas," but the average Californian moving here is a guy like this, and they believe the punishment for homelessness should be execution by anti-aircraft gun.

seems to me that one of the issues here is that these executives think they are paying writers enough that they can afford to buy a house
