“Am I sure europeans invented mayonnaise?” led me into a recursive wiki loop. The mayonnaise page claims mayo “may have its origins in the ancient remoulade” and the remoulade page claims that “remoulade is a derivative of mayonnaise“ so I don’t know what to believe. It’s a real chicken-egg debacle.

Twitter user dawnedEUW quote tweeting a "picture" of a white dragon laying on the ground: i can't help but notice that i am seeing a lot more dragon sighting videos since the advent of generative AI.

Could it be that AI's adverse effects on the environment are leading to a change in their behavior, e.g. lack of water sources that causes them to move closer to cities?

A digital illustration of Max Headroom, a shiny, fast/talking electric man who lived inside a TV who we all liked in the 80s. He has a very tall head with an odd stripey blond hair cut and a goofy grin. He’s wearing white wayfarers and a shiny white, wide shouldered jacket over a lilac colored shirt and black bow tie. The background is intersecting colored perspective lines sort of forming the idea of a box. Colorful type following the perspective of the walls reads ‘MAYBE IT WILL HAPPEN TODAY’.

Elon Musk is an unstable right-wing grifter with more power than any one else in the world. But my liberal neighbor has convinced my city council to put in bike lanes on the road I use to commute to work. I have never felt more politically homeless.

You can always tell when reckless malice is socially sanctioned when you see demands for perfect victims. Well fuck you, here’s one. Hitting these people hard by taking them off the road and throwing them in prison is the absolutely correct response. They can ride when they’re free.
