I hate Evangelical Voice so much. It hurts, how disingenuous it is. It's all about making yourself look so very dedicated and holy and better-than. That's not how I was taught to pray

fish are friends
Stop using anti-fish language
Instead of: this seems fishy
Try saying:
this seems like a situation in which we should consult the wisdom and grace of the European seabass, a species with which i would entrust my entire life and personal safety

Spooky season continues with an eerie, beautiful piece of puppetry and dance: Discipline I really need to look more into Mona Fastvold, she can evoke such feeling with her shots. letterboxd.com/roscone/film... #spookyseason2026 #filmsky

Hell, let's assume Suno is absolutely perfect in its output It won't give me the new CHVRCHES song. It won't give me discoveries in the back catalog of some band I've heard about but never listened to. It won't be my buddy's band.

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

Good on them! But their last paragraph also highlights a problem we have arrived at: people (some) can't differentiate between LLMs/GenAI and npc AI or procgen in a game. I'm seeing it more and more online. Words matter and this is just another thing these mfers have tainted with their grift.

The ideal would be to come on here and be funny every once and awhile, but every social media feed is so depressing. It's like a comedy black hole. But that's no excuse not to try. I guess what I'm trying to say is that Babar is an imperialist who conquered his own people and instituted a monarchy.

Also on the AI kick: what's the point of AI agents? I'd have to check everything they do to ensure it's working properly, not wasting my money, not breaking anything, etc, so why should I delegate any tasks to them at all? It's just a waste of time or a massive investment of trust

Fun AI story: I got a used Pixel watch earlier this year and it came with a 6 month trial to Fitbit Premium, which soon became Google's new Health app. That subscription just ended, and all the annoying AI "coach" messages disappeared entirely! It's actively a better product without paying!

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

I hate the phrase “don’t yuck someone’s yum” but that’s no longer enough. You have to affirm everyone else’s tastes and fuck that. Grow a thicker skin.

Can confirm, a good performer on a Wurlitzer adds a lot to a movie. Highly recommend you check this out if there's a theater anywhere near you that does something similar

Today I saw the new 4 hour documentary Musk, directed by Alex Gibney. There were too many times to count that a sold out theater burst out laughing at Elon Musk, something he said or did, even sometimes just how he looked. I believe that is his worst nightmare come to life.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

One time there was a subskeet about dudes on here being creepy, and then two dudes in the comments were like "Creeps in Bluesky? Oh no!" and basically saying they were too scared of women to be sexist, and then the OP was like, "This post is literally about you two in particular." Completely ethered

Today's spooky season pick: Cold Storage It was...maybe a shade less than fine. Liam Neeson in particular was not any good at all. It could be a fun one to have on in the background of a Halloween party where no one's actually sitting down to watch the movie. boxd.it/gu3q3f #spookyseason2026
