A lot of cis people hear, “boob job” and think: “Porn Star.” Breast reductions, post-cancer reconstructions, etc never cross their minds.

Interviewer: can you explain this gap in your resume? Librarian: RDA lacks sufficient documentation to verify that field’s data, so it was omitted.

“High crimes and *misdemeanors*,” implies that we should impeach a POTUS for anything that is irksome, not just the big stuff like starting a war without congressional authorization but also like renaming bodies of water and falling asleep in the oval office.

This is what the dream of AI is and always has been: layers of code between the human slave and the labor they produce, so that the moral atrocity is obfuscated.

He’ll misquote scripture like an evangelical and cite some Internet influencer-apostate. I don’t think there’s been a Catholic Politician so in need of excommunication as Vance in the last 400 years.

Not a bad idea

A Twitter post reads: "Today I'm coining a new internet slang term: ai;dr. AI, didn't read. Start using this to reply to comments that are obviously written by AI and watch what happens."

The one thing I have taken away from AI is the appreciation of the imperfections in human art. Wabi sabi is where it’s at. Give me books with a typo or two, drawings with visible pencil lines underneath, and fingerprints baked into the clay.

Fossil taxa are sometimes considered island weirdos without any actual evidence that island effects were important in their evolution. So we wrote a paper on how we could do actual island biogeography in deep time. If you want a copy but can't access it, email me: www.nature.com/articles/s44...

It’s just so paper thin and cruel and without any sort of grandeur. Probably because it’s based on their stunted recollections of childhood sci-fi tropes than any actual vision of human potential.

The story should be played 100% straight by the characters, with the humor arising from their interractions that lead to absurd outcomes. The *reader* recognizes the humor, the characters do not. I call this my Non-diagetic theory of humor.

I could very well be talking out my ass! But time will tell. And I think once Trump and his DoJ aren't putitng their thumbs on the scale anymore, the pendulum will swing back. Is it going to be swift, decsive and satisfying? Absolutley not. But just a DOGE hearing will open so many cans of worms.

Keith Edwards @kedwards.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

For now, because they have the 24/7 Trump show and he is so very noisy. But once he's out, they're going to get restless and go looking for a new scandel, somthing sexier than, "Dems wanna Trans your kids!" hokum. And there's Musk, blowing up rockets and Altman babbling about AI doomsday.

Keith Edwards @kedwards.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

Nah, Trump provides cover for them. There's a lot of stuff Musk et al are doing that gets missed because President Angry Grandpa hogs the spotlight. With him gone, all the cable news channels have a lot more room to talk about Hyperloop, DOGE, and whatever skeevy shitt he AI bros are up to.

The rot inside our government is going to last decades. Any Dem who suggests we just “turn the page” like Obama and Biden did needs to be run out of town. We need vengeance and cleansing.

"Seizing ballots nationwide” would require logistics that would make the D Day invasion look like an improv routine. The fact that our fascists are aspring to levels of inane supervillainy undreamt of by the likes of Skeltor does not preclude the fact that they are still fascists.

Look, it was their turn to vote for a Republican to balence out their previous vote for a Democrat and he was the nominee! What were they supposed to do, evaluate the candidates on their records and agendas and pick the one that best aligned with their desired outcomes?!

Do you understand that bad things don’t happen in a vacuum? Trump voters are our neighbors, for better or worse, and bad policies don’t pick and choose who gets hurt. Antivaxers caused a measles outbreak here in Texas. But fuck those kids worth measles because their neighbors are Trump voters?

I didn't know it was from a Bond novel but even so, if you're working passport control and someone hands you a passport with such a cleary-made-up name, youre going to run it twice, just to be sure. And then show it to like 6 of your coworkers.
