Two Bluesky posts. The top one from Mara Wilson says "Anyway, who wants to see pictures of my gay car 1/4)." The one below says "five my days of hat."

People are in for a rude awakening when they finally discover that it’s not just tech bros who are using AI, and that all the usage of AI is *not* in fact a conspiratorial mirage of compulsory adoption of a fake product by the billionaire class.

Norwegian police security services asks people along the coast to be vigilant China, and Russia in particular, have stepped up their intelligence activities targeting critical infrastructure along the Norwegian coast. People are now being asked to remain vigilant.

From what I can see, people currently use AI in two very different ways: either to produce “scientific slop,” or as an assistant that genuinely enhances the quality of their work, without necessarily increasing its quantity. We need to protect science from the first use case.

I have looked at this photo for days now and I am convinced that this is the expression of someone who is lying. But I cannot identify what exactly makes me think so - the difference between what the eyes convey and what the face says?

It is the most glorious spring day in Melbourne today - no jacket required. Put your north face puffers away, people. Those trench coats can go too. Dare not to wear a jacket.

Just had breakfast at a new BF's place for the first time. He microwaved a frozen Greggs sausage product and ate it dipping it in condensed milk before each bite. I know I should respect others' personal choices but are there any normal non-fash straight men left in this country?

I'm a tall woman (181cm) and I've been this tall since I was 11 years old. At school they teased me and called me "Mommy Long Legs." When I was 13 I spent every weekend in the library studying anatomy and I designed a detailed surgical procedure to remove 8cm from my femur.

It's interesting how "artificial" intelligence has been accepted by the masses as something good, perhaps if we renamed it fake intelligence it wouldn't do so well.

Naomi Alderman’s The Strangers should - if there’s justice - supplant The Power as the book she is most famous for. It goes straight into my book of the year contenders. My excitable review:
thetimes.com
Naomi Alderman’s The Strangers is not just a good book, it’s a special one
Naomi Alderman is best known for The Power, which won the Women’s Prize. Her new novel is even better

Trump banning CNN from the White House has only served to get the channel to go for him full-on. A constant stream of lowest poll ratings ever, billions spent on the Iran War and more. Would have been nice if it happened before, but it’s a good result.
