Every hour on the hour, a huge truck, made entirely of pressed ham, lumbers its way across dog heaven—and all the car chasers can decide for themselves whether or not to participate.

ChatGPT is adding the signatures of real New Yorker cartoonists to its AI-generated images. So far, I've found the signatures of more than 15 contributors. "It’s slop, and unlike the other slop that I’ve encountered, this is slop that’s pretending to be me." www.niemanlab.org/2026/10/chat...

This is why there should be blanket investigations. Republican and Democrat. One, as a show of impartiality. Two, you can pick up any stray dirty Dems and get them out too.

The Marvel Comics app used to be so sick. You used to be able to pick a date and just read the comics from that month. I spent a lot of time just going month by month reading 70s and 80s comics. But that was years ago.

It's bonkers how "User agreements" are actually binding contracts where one party gets to change them whenever and however they wish and the other party has the options to agree or to stop using computers.

Have you noticed, lately, or noticed people around you commenting, that there just seems to be no money anymore. There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job. Think about that in context of

I have a very old version of Word that I continue to use because I have an auto formatting comics template that I love and it only works in Word. But it might be time to consider making the switch. Just so I can use software that is still supported by the developer.

Comics in the Spooky Age 🧛‍♂️🧟‍♀️🎃 @comicsinthega.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

The Pogo comic strip by Walt Kelly debuted on October 4, 1948, in the New York Star. It ran until the paper folded in January 1949, but the strip was picked up for national distribution in May 1949. Before the strip, Kelly had written and drawn the characters in Dell comic books since 1941.

The first four-panel installment of Pogo sees Pogo Possum encounter Churchy LaFemme while he is trying to teach a small worm to go forward in life.

Happy 100th heavenly birthday to Ramona Fradon. My admiration of her work throughout the decades is well documented. She is best remembered for her work on the silver age Aquaman, the Super Friends comic series, Brenda Starr daily strip and for co-creating Metamorpho. She passed in 2024.

No two words send AI industry advocates into fits of rage more than "stochastic parrots." The question is: Why? Why do they get so worked up over this particular critical framework time and time again? I sat down with @emilymbender.bsky.social, one of the coauthors of the original paper, to discuss

The two words the AI industry hates more than anything

I talk with computational linguist Emily M. Bender, co-author of the influential 2021 “stochastic parrots” paper, about why AI industry leaders can’t stop seething over the term.
