New interview with Alan Moore, what a legend www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4MVY-80p6M
A close-up shot of absolute legend Alan Moore with a long, frizzy grey beard and mustache, and grey hair pulled back, looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. He is wearing a black shirt and sitting in a red leather chair. Behind him is a wooden cabinet and a blue artwork with a yellow star. In the top left corner is a logo for the podcast "Half the Picture." Subtitles at the bottom read: "brief honest answer would be massive amounts of hashish."

finished reading Children of Time 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 A fun read. Might not be the deepest insight into the human condition, but then again it is about alien intelligent spiders.

finished watching Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑 'Gundam Goes Evangelion'. Well paced and extremely pretty. Engaging characters. But moral issues are not deeply considered. And unless you are conversant in Gundam franchise lore it will be a muddle. Tasty junk food, but junk food.

My neighbor from the UK told me leopards keep eating Prime Ministers' faces so I asked how many Prime Ministers he's had (7 so far) and he said the parties simply elect a new PM after the latest one has their face eaten so I said it sounds like they're just feeding PMs to the leopards and then […]

Starting to become convinced that each generation will have a new crop of synthesists taking an ever-wider reach (i.e. Freakonomics, Malcolm Gladwell) who are celebrated for their generalist takes but will be discredited for sloppy methodology over time. Wash, rinse, repeat. (I’m all OK for a […]

ArXiv announces a ban on AI content and the responses are hilarious. > You expect us to actually read the papers we cite?! yes, lol! www.404media.co/new-arxiv-rules-ai-…
Screenshot from Thomas Dietterich on X:
"Attention @arxiv authors: Our Code of Conduct states that by signing your name as an author of a paper, each author takes full responsibility for all its contents, irrespective of how the contents were generated."

With a reply from James Miller:
"So this means you expect every author to check every citation and make sure that every citation is real and accurate? What if it's beyond the ability of one of the authors to verify one of the citations because that citation is in a language he doesn't know or concerns technical material he doesn't understand but another author on the paper does?"

[1/3] I would have killed to see this lineup in say, 1991; now it's an oldies revue for people who also have a colonoscopy on their Google calendar
A promotional poster for the "Darker Waves" music festival held on Saturday, November 14, in Huntington Beach, CA. The design features a retro synthwave aesthetic with a large yellow sun and purple grid background against a night sky. The headlining acts, Morrissey and Smashing Pumpkins, are displayed in large, stylized blue and purple text. Below them is a dense list of supporting artists in various fonts and colors, including Simple Minds, Bad Religion, Adam Ant, Soft Cell, The Damned, Manic Street Preachers, Gary Numan, and Silversun Pickups. The bottom of the poster reads "On The Beach" and lists the website DarkerWavesFest.com.

Good morning from Phnom Penh. Rainy season is making a grudging start, which means we're getting some cleaner air and cool cloud effects. #ថៃរហ
Gorgeous sunrise on Mekong river in Phnom Penh. Most of the image is sun and clouds with a very small boat bathed in radiance underneath.

You aren't the only one who just sits in the car before or after a long day
Pausing to decompress in a parked car can help you reset, if you keep a few things in mind. That temporary pause can act as a buffer between one part of the day and the next.

@iamsk Accurate
A map of Thailand where the entire landmass of the country is filled with a dense, repeating grid of 7-Eleven logos. The iconic green, orange, and red logos are tiled tightly together to perfectly outline the country's borders, extending from the northern region down the long, narrow southern peninsula. The background shows a standard map view with blue ocean waters and faint outlines of neighboring countries like Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia. The post caption reads, "Thailand mapped only by 7-Elevens."
