Sometimes I think there's something wrong with me.

The cheddar goblin from a parody commercial embedded in the film Mandy being interviewed by Nathan Fielder. The goblin, green and horrible, with long pointy ears, a pointy nose, and a mouth full of sharklike teeth. Nathan is in the foreground, shown from behind. The image is captioned "why would I deceive you?" This is a parody of the trailer for Nathan Fielder's new film "you can see everything."

Correction: rabies IS deadly. Rabies is ALWAYS fatal once symptoms appear. Don't couch this in any kind of hope - rabies has been survived, but so has falling out of an airplane at tens of thousands of feet. Saying otherwise diminishes the seriousness of this. www.cnn.com/2026/08/29/u...

My grandpa had four soft spots in his giant pink bald head where holes had been drilled after his solo bike accident, so I wear a helmet when I ride.

Does it give me carte blanche for future weirdness, or do I have to continually justify myself?

Your bad art is better than AI slop.

four frame comic. first frame shows a typical AI poster that says : All chatgpt flyers look the same, especially with this font! the text above it reads : I won't go to your event if the poster was made by AI. second frame shows a still frame from a Hank Green youtube video. text above reads : I won't read your post or email and I won't watch your video if they were made with AI. third frame shows an AI restaurant poster of burgers and chicken in a window. text reads : I won't patronize your shop or restaurant if it is advertised with AI. last frame shows an MS paint window with badly written : Your bad art is better than AI slop. text reads : if you can't take the time or make the effort to interact with me yourself, then why should I do it?

Tornado sirens? I just heard the Oakland version, which I think are intended to alert about kaiju attacking the Golden Gate Bridge.

How many moons do we even need? I don't think we even need one more - much less the number of moons that would warrant moon factories. What a waste.

Thanks, now I can't sleep, but I found Red Skelton making "Sloppie Joe" in 1941: The Daily Oklahoman Oklahoma City, Oklahoma · Sunday, November 30, 1941

A newspaper clipping that reads:

"Red, that stuff you're cooking," broke In Mrs. Skelton. "I won't eat it this time.

It's nothing but a suicide pact."

"Honey, how you talk-it's nothing but meat, tomtoes, onions, and stuff."

"Yes, it's the stuff that does it."

"I must look," Red bounced out into the kitchen. Mrs. Skelton explained, "he calls the stuff 'Sloppie Joe." He's got the cooking bug right now. It wont last long. but neither will I."

You see. Red gets terrific enthusiasms.

Btw: the algorithm will silently delete all the characters when "normalizing" them and the search will end up being LIKE '%%' and match everything and for years no one will have time to debug the slowest queries that return the entire table.

Hawk moth in the back yard the other day.

A hawk moth relaxing in the 7shade on a cedar box. The moth is surprisingly large, two inches or fifty centimeters, and easily as thick as a finger. It's tan and brown.

#makeaterriblecomicday2024 wow it’s that time of year again!

A (terrible) comic. PANEL 1: Emma looks at her watch. “What! It’s JUNE 24th already?” PANEL 2: “That means it’s MAKE A TERRIBLE COMIC DAY! how does it sneak up on me every year?” PANEL 3: “participation is SIMPLE. just make a comic! It doesn’t have to be funny or insightful or beautiful or interesting. make something for the joy of making it and if you feel it going wrong just trust yourself and keep going!!!” PANEL 4: “make a comic and don’t stop until it’s made!” PANEL 5: “remember that ole MAKE A TERRIBLE COMIC DAY saying, ‘if you want to make something GREAT, you need to start by making something TERRIBLE.’” PANEL 6: “or the other saying, ‘YOUR PARTICIPATION IS COMPULSORY!’ Stop thinking and get to work!”

Please enjoy one opossum and one cat.

A baby opossum. It is a small animal with two legs showing, each with small finger-like toes. It has a long rope-like pink tail that comes to a point. Its body is perpendicular to the camera, sitting on a whiteish fleecy cushion. Behind it is silver reflective insulation. Its face is directed at the camera. It has a pink nose shaped like a jellybean, and two eyes reflecting the flash. Its face and belly are creamy white, and the fur on its legs and back is brown, with longer wiry pale gray hairs bristling out of the softer looking brown fur. Its ears are round and brown with white tips. It is impossibly cute.

A cat shelter with a pronounced overhanging roof. A gold crown shape is nailed over the door of the shelter. Inside the shelter is a tiny opossum. Near the shelter is a siamese cat with a white belly and paws. Both the possum and cat look somewhat shocked.

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.
