Thinking about this exchange today

A YouTube video for the Water Temple in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The comments section has an exchange as detailed below. “@TheMrdangles16 • 11y ago:
i hate the water temple... too confusing :(“ “@KeithHalsell • 2y ago:
it's been 9 years, i hope you are doing great in life now.” “@TheMrdangles16 • 2y ago: it couldn't be going worse Keith.”

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period. The only AI I 'use' is shit foisted on me - summaries and slop vomited on my screen as part of internet browsing or injected into programs I work with until I turn those settings off or rip those parts out by the roots.

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.

Miss Piggy and Dolly Parton in fancy dresses posing together

photo of Tim Curry surrounded by muppets, smiling for a photo. A quote from curry is added “it didn’t go very well. It didn’t survive the shoot. She felt I wasn’t being faithful to her” it’s him discussing his ill fated affair with miss piggy

My YA dystopia.

A creature sniffs a person. Text reads: this thing has to sniff me and evaluate my essence.

The creature says, "you are assigned to the stinky faction". The person replies, "ahh". Two stinky people, labelled "stinky ones" celebrate.

Two stinky people tell their new member, "we're going to destroy da guvamint - wiv our stink".

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Lynda Barry did not squeeze your heart and simultaneously explain the point of all art with the barest of line drawings so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

HOW TO LOOK AT ART by Lynda Barry

In the first panel, a dog-headed woman, a mother, looks at a painting in the "Madonna with Baby Jesus" vein. A small blobby child is standing next to her.

Mother: IM NOT SURE HOW TO LOOK AT ART.
Child: WHATS SPOSTA HAPPEN?

In the second panel the dog-headed mother holds up her hands (paws?) trying to explain to the child.

Mother: SOMETHING BIG. A REVELATION.
SUDDENLY YOU JUST UNDERSTAND.

In the third panel dog-headed mother goes back to looking at the painting. The child holds up their arms to be lifted.

Mother: NOT SURE HOW TO MAKE IT HAPPEN
Child: HOW BOUT LIFT ME UP SO I CAN SEE BETTER

In the last panel, the dog-headed mother is holding the child, their position mirrored by the Madonna and baby Jesus in the painting.

It’s almost time for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, so for the ninth year running, I have made a bingo card for it.

A bingo card titled “MICF BINGO 2026”.
The card is a five by five grid, and each box contains a different item to check off. From top to bottom, left to right, the items are:
- gratuitous musical number to showcase range
- see a cooked late night show
- crepe!
- go to three shows in one night
- fake text exchange as visual prop
- joke about dating an AI
- stand-up has a special lil outfit to perform in
- “so I’m single…”
- too many props?
- see a solo debut
- tech whoopsie
- clown nudity
- see Local Laws
- buy some merch
- joke that’s a thinly-veiled ask for coke
- “the algorithm” mentioned
- comedian clearly farming crowdwork for reels
- beef between comedian and reviewer
- see some sketch
- full meal from 7-Eleven
- see an act you’ve never seen
- fee the vibe turn at 3am at the artist bar
- “I’m (insert age here)” as a punchline
- this live podcast is just two comedians turning their friendship into a job
- whoops! Horny for some goofball!

Hourly Comics Day has MOVED! It's the 20th anniversary and we're taking a stand alongside our Black cartoonist members and friends to demand a change to honor Black History Month- draw your comics on the 8th, not the 1st! hourlycomicsday.com #hourlycomicsday #hourlycomicday #hcd

"IN OBSERVANCE & SOLIDARITY". Two black speech bubbles with white text read "HOURLY COMICS DAY IS NOW ON FEB 8TH. CARTOONISTS HONOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH. FEB 1 - MAR 1". There is an illustration of a black silhouetted hand raised and holding a pen in the top right, and an illustration of a nib pen and an ink well personified on the bottom right. The nib and ink are bumping fists. A URL at the bottom is "hourlycomicsday.com".
