The absolutely insane regional linguistic differences in American English are why I actually do love this country sometimes (someone who just found out "johnny" is not a universal term)

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

There's nothing I love more than working on a statement of purpose ie. writing and rewriting the same 3 sentences about how great and cool my dissertation ideas are

I was almost happy that my husband lost his ring in the yard a few weeks ago because it was my final possible opportunity to joke that he should get one of these, an opportunity I thought lost when we finally got married

Star Trek Deep Space Nine scene. Close up on Quark, a Ferengi guy with a smooth and domed head that kind of looks like a butt and huge exaggerated earlobes that connect like a unibrow across his forgead. He also has nose loaf that kind of looks like a pine cone.  He is pursing his mouth and doing a 'Jim from The Office' look to camera. Closed caption reads, "baseball, root beer, darts, atom bombs."

With this ruling, the birthright issue is not going away. The right hasn't really begun *organizing* around getting rid of the citizenship clause. Like Roe, this will be their fight for a generation. And if the Democrats just say "we won" and ignore it, like Roe, the Republicans will eventually win.

idk why everyone is complaining, i think it's cool that they are building the ship from CONTACT (1997) on the white house lawn. the liberal media says it won't work again but they are IGNORING that approximately 18 hours of static was recorded on that fateful day. explain THAT
the stupid ufc thing on the stupid lawn of the stupid white house

Some of you have not read Herodotus’ recounting of Croesus’s mistaken interpretation of the Oracle of Delphi-telling him that attacking Persia would “destroy a great empire”-and it shows.
