Am I supposed to believe he can walk that far without shitting himself? Without talking about his crowd sizes or how the other patients in the Memory Ward can't be left to have nuclear weapons?

Oh my gods, the closet... my bedroom closet door had been taken off its hinges before I could remember and it was left an open maw. Was certain that if I could be seen, something would come out and murder me. Didn’t help that Zork had taught me one thing happens in the dark - a grue eats you.

I don't do much 9/11 posting, but I always think about Bretagne, the last surviving ground zero search and rescue dog. When they took her to be euthanized in 2016, first responders saluted as she entered the clinic. She was later carried out in a flag-draped casket. www.chron.com/news/houston...

I wrote an essay about why I'm done using AI for coding, even if it costs me my job and career: brettcodes.com/im-done-usin... The basic gist is: AI made me a worse, apathetic programmer. I think it's bad for humanity, the planet, and the craft of software engineering. And I'm done using it.

A cinema in Canada never received their Spider-Man Brand New Day posters so one of the employees drew his own and it is one of the greatest things I have ever seen
Hand drawn poster for spider-man brand new day featuring a lumpy, mis-shapen Spidey doing web shooter hand pose. Writing at the bottom reads “sorry! We never received the real posters! Sorry for any incoveniences!”

Well, as much as I dislike AI if anyone actually *reads* the story and not just the headline you'll find this is not a terrible use. The synthetic viruses they created are bacteriophages, potentially useful against antibiotic-resistant bacteria. So, they made potential cures.

Listen to this king at a Huntington City Council meeting on Flock Cameras:

"I'm not gonna waste your time, I'm kinda hungry, but one last thing. Every single Flock camera has about 2-3 lbs of copper and about 1-2 grams of gold. Do with that information what you will."

"SAM NEILL
- If you were to commit a murder, how would you do it?
- It's got to be big! No slipping something into someone's drink, that's just pathetic. I'd use a steamroller, just leave a stain on the road. There's probably a couple of people I'd put under a steamroller, but I won't say who they are, otherwise when they see a steamroller coming their way they'll be on full alert. And steamrollers don't go very fast..."

True hot take: Policing & scolding people for being glad Lindsey Graham’s reign of terror has ended is infinitely more unethical and immoral than people celebrating ever could be, because knowing what we know about the sheer volume of harm and deaths that man caused, it would be weird if you didn’t

Image from the Simpsons' episode "Cape Feare" (S5E2), where a parole board member turning to another after Sideshow Bob has just shown his "Die Bart Die" tattoo. The original caption of "No one who speaks German can be an evil man" has had the "speaks German" replaced with "has a Nazi tattoo"
