If nothing else, AI-driven spam can be good for laughs. I'm currently getting spammed at my business email by what appears to be an LLM chatbot that was randomly given the email handle "Larry King" and concluded that it should be RPing as the actual Larry King, the American TV host who died in 2021.

I watched TNG's "Measure of a Man" and "Q Who". I love how TNG was able to write wonderful interiority into its one-off officers like Captain Phillipa Louvois and Ensign Sonya Gomez*, as if they were fully realized people who stepped into the episode and stepped out to continue their lives unseen.

They tried this with adult content and it largely failed. While there have been some niche use cases, audiences want to feel a connection to the creator — whether that's an author, a porn performer or a musician. It's not because the technology isn't believable, it's because

When it rains, it pours

Skull Panda is walking outdoors. When it starts to rain. He opens his umbrella. But when he does, a bunch of tiny little open umbrellas start raining out of it and hitting him. He closes the umbrella. Then a bunch of tiny closed umbrellas start raining out of the sky.

ESPECIALLY if you have tenure. Years after I left a toxic grad school situation, I sailed with a member of my former dept. He said he was glad I was doing well now, bc he saw what my old advisor was doing to their students. It was all I could do not to yell 'THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING?"

Haven't rendered something just for fun in a while! Here's Star Trek Online's USS Enterprise from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. SNW Constitution-Class by @ramonmatas.bsky.social ! (based on the Discovery-Era model by Donny Versiga) Shuttlecraft by me :)

A view from the ventral starboard angle, looking from the fore of the ship. The USS Enterprise (from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds) hangs in space. It's shuttle, the Alvarez, flies next to it. A faint blue nebula can be seen behind. The scene is lit by a distant orange-yellow star and blue light.

An overhead view of the USS Enterprise (from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds) with its shuttle, the Alvarez, flying beside it. It is set upon a pale blue and orange nebula, and lit by a nearby star.

The three major, or rather two major and one minor alien species that first and for a long while only appeared in Star Trek animation; Caitian¹, Edosian and Aurelian; have now all appeared² in live action. That's fucking wild to me.

Please. If you see evidence of workplace harassment. Badmouthing of own junior staff, unreasonable expectations, removal or omission from authorship, hostile language, evidence of overworking or distress. Don't walk by. Academic safety nets can't rely on whisper networks set by marginalised people.

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport

Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, the media, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's Fascism 101.

Men need to be more angry for women. Period. There was stunning silence when Roe V Wade was overturned and a handful of states, mine included, banned safe abortion options. The violence women have experienced since it's overturning has been insane. This poor woman deserves actual JUSTICE.
