It’s an unpalatable truth, but Meta, TikTok, and hopefully it goes without saying, X, aren’t sustainable to rely on for political amplification, cultural promotion/marketing or community organizing. It’s long past time for new platforms/means and to move on.

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

@cabel.panic.com Idea for cheap @panic.com t-shirts: 1. Bulk buy Panasonic t-shirts for cheap 2. Remove middle letters from "Panasonic" 3. Remove "For" from the tagline. 4. PROFIT!!!!
Photo of a t-shirt with "Pa    nic. for life" written on it. Obviously this used to be a "Panasonic Ideas for life" t-shirt but now it reads as "Panic for life".

"Frasier" s07e23, comparison of what it looked like directed and originally broadcast, and how it currently looks on Paramount+ (re-framed for 16:9 using previously unused film negative). Gotta love how you can see the elevator doors (which are 'closed') which are plainly visible in the 16:9.

I prefer Japanese poster designs for movies, but had this gratuitously masculine Italian Escape From New York poster on my wall for many years.
Italian movie poster version for John Carpenter's Escape From New York featuring a low-angle perspective illustration of Kurt Russel as Snake Plisskin holding a machine gun at crotch level with significant foreshortening of the gun barrel, basically making this about as masculine as a poster can get without incurring X-rated subject matter. The background features helicopters in a NYC skyline, a photo of the ruined head of the Statue of Liberty laying on the ground, and shadows of people around it. In the middle right is Issac Hayes as The Duke of NY and some other man wearing a headband.

Paramount+ wanted to use the image on the left as a poster for the wrath of Khan, so they used everyone's least favorite technology to generate the rest of the image.
A close up of captain kirk getting his eyes scanned. It is cut off above the eyebrows and below his mouth.The same image in a thumbnail for Star Trek, the wrath of Khan. But AI has painted the rest of the image so that Kirk is a balding man in a business suit.

I wanted to see what this would physically look like on the desk so I made a quick mock-up in Blender
3D render of a heinous monitor setup, with a lazy wireframe look. I don't know how a person could describe these monitors and their arrangement. The best I've got is this: One normal sized monitor, two smaller monitors, one monitor with a phone aspect ratio, and one monitor with a 1:4 aspect ratio. Monitors are arranged in a very disjointed displeasing way, not matching the alignment of any neighboring monitor. The long thin 1:4 monitor is just kinda hanging down from the middle, taunting the world by leaving a large gap between three neighboring monitors.

We're all going to be using our devices for longer than we planned so my advice to you: settings > battery > charging > set limit to 80% [on iOS or macOS]. Making sure your computer or phone never goes above 80% will *quadruple* its life compared to charging it to 100% every evening.
