In 1980 the federal minimum wage was 3.10/hr. 7.75 comics at 40 cents apiece. Today the minimum wage is 7.75. 1.5 comics at 499 cents apiece. What are we doing here?

I have been a guest at conventions where, during the pre-con walk through, my handler has pointed out the bar and mentioned how some guests are "more fun" and "get asked back," then names only men. Because a lot of female guests aren't comfortable hanging out around alcohol with strangers.

A customer just tried to use an employee discount code that ChatGPT gave her. I work at a high-end clothing store and clocked in to my manager telling me about the most unhinged interaction from yesterday. A woman walked in asking if she could use a 40% off code she got online. We don't have any sales running, so my manager looks at the screen and realizes ChatGPT straight up handed this woman a real employee's internal ID number.

Oh jeez. Oh no.
To be fair, I’m not doing so great with men. I told my most recent date that I was working on a novella. “Because you’re Mexican?” he asked. I asked what he meant. “Isn’t a novella a Mexican novel?” Before him was the guy who confessed over drinks that he didn’t “believe in Helen Keller,” because there was “no way she actually flew that plane.” I asked if he meant Amelia Earhart. “Who?” I slept with both of them.

I just learned the most astounding TOSE fact: On December 13, 1991, they had two games released with the same title; one of which was essentially the Asylum Films knock-off version of the other. I am strangely impressed that they somehow pulled this off.

The name of the title character in Digger is Digger Rockwell but my brain keeps inserting a middle-initial T. in there because of...
The NES box for The Legend of the Lost City Starring Digger T. Rock (though the art makes it seem like the game is probably called Digger T. Rock: The Legend of the Lost City or something, it's not really clear). The game's title screen which features the title character, a cute little digger adventurer guy, digging into the word DIGGER. Across the top it reads MILTON BRADLEY PRESENTS and underneath the artwork it reads The Legend of the Lost City (TM) Starring Digger T. Rock (TM). 1990 Rare Ltd.

Also, let's not have any illusions about what they hoped to achieve with these demands. They did not actually want to ban depictions of hugging. They correctly identified furry as a queer community, so they made a demand they know is impossible to comply with.

I was running some video through a VCR and back again, to get it to the point where it's looking multi-generational and awful. It took about ten generations, most of them in EP/SLP mode, to get it looking anything like some of the tapes we had back in the tape trading days. Or any VHS workprint.

Every Windows update is 100GB and bricks your computer. Windows claims it's 5MB but will chug along and stop working for a week.

Congratulations David!
Streamblor press release from David Ellison

What once was a stubborn turtle head, is now explosive diarrhea.

Paramount and Warner Bros. shaped over a century of culture. By combining them, we aren't rewriting history - we are unleashing an unstoppable media juggernaut.  Together, we bring life to Streamblor, a creative-first entity for bold, quality storytelling, and a living breathing technological bioweapon whose capabilities remain undefinable and without moral concerns for those born of woman.

Streamblor is, depending on the position of the moon and sun, a media company, a technology platform, an entertainment organism, and a rapidly expanding blob whose tentacular growth and migratory patterns cannot yet be disclosed.

We have big plans for Streamblor, and we intend to pursue them with passion, imagination and a willingness to feed Streamblor human flesh.  Our scientists are very excited. Ultimately, Streamblor is about possibility. Streamblor is about bringing together the world's greatest storytellers and a surveillance infrastructure capable of implementing collective dreaming and brand awareness.

Streamblor couldn't be more excited about what He is going to build.

Streamblor is growing. Streamblor is watching. Streamblor is the apex predator.

You left then but you did not do
