Sharing with awe of one of the best puns I’ve ever heard.

The Texans and Commanders are both a pathetic 0-2, and the Titans uniforms have got me like Elmer Fudd seeing Bugs Bunny dressed like a woman. I need to go back to not caring about football.

Almost always, the iPhone feature that changes the lock screen to one of my pictures fills me with joy at the pictures it serves up. Sometimes, though…

The blocking on Bluesky is excessive. I get the concept--instead of dealing with annoying people, just get them out--but it's too much. I enjoyed @gregsargent.bsky.social's posts, but he blocked me for this very casual point. Now I can't see anything he posts. It's silly.

I actively hope that @washingtonpost.com is using AI because it’s just crushing to think that a paid journalist wrote “Tupperware-gray skies”.

Love it when football teams change their uniforms to what I would have told them to do in the first place.

There are so many startling quotes in this piece, but this one--about how the people in South Sudan still have a positive view of the U.S.--made me gasp.

Everyone knows that “remember me” is the biggest checkbox lie on the internet, but this is the second biggest.

Fascinating to see Grok accurately correcting people on X. People continually @ Grok to get it to admit to their racist assumptions like (in this case) "are immigrants more violent" and it (as far as I see) accurately corrects them. It's the way AI should work!

Surely the Bluesky moderation app is smart enough to recognize that, yes, this image contains nipples, but it is the cover of Roxy Music’s classic Country Life and should therefore get a pass. Gotta go directly to tunemine.com for this one, sorry.

I’m going to have to object to the use of the word “pedestrian” here. Definitionally true, I guess, but…

Oh yeah?! Well can your precious AI trot out cliches about old people that were tired twenty years ago?! Didn’t think so.

And this quote sent the stock market back up. It's wild that anyone can still be credulous enough to think this has any basis in reality. Time frame to what?! The regime change that clearly isn't coming? The destruction of the nuclear program which they already said happened last year?

I love how people are using their communities to reach people who might not have heard it otherwise. They're not going out of character and "sorry for the political post". They're posting exactly what the communities want and still making the point.

From my completely-unnecessary Google One year in review email comes a, uh, interesting way of visualizing "very slightly less than half". Data viz folk: your jobs are still safe.

We’re fostering a couple puppies and whenever I see them gamboling around, I sing “I thought it was a puppy palace, puppy palace” to the tune of Lily Allen’s “Pussy Palace”, so there’s your clean version, Lily.

Walking around while my daughter takes horseback riding lessons is a little fraught when it’s in the same spot as Markoff’s Haunted Forest. Never know what you’ll find around a corner.
