Propaganda has us thinking of AI as Skynet, ready to destroy us with killer robots, but really AI is a guessing machine that will drink all our water and convince us the moon is made of cheese.

Born on this day: Neil deGrasse Tyson is an astrophysicist, author, and science communicator who directs the Hayden Planetarium in New York. Known for making the cosmos accessible, he hosts StarTalk and champions scientific literacy with wit, clarity, and enthusiasm.

Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson sits at a wooden table during a book signing event. Wearing a black t-shirt, he holds an open book with a pen nearby, seated in front of a green backdrop. If you’re mad at this joke it’s because you’re a nerd.

My country is being run by people who only understand aesthetics, who mistake their own (clumsy) propaganda for truth, who think themselves all John Galt because they were born into wealth and privilege. What a bunch of dopes.

Born on this day: Tommy Lee, is a musician and co-founder of glam metal giants Mötley Crüe. Renowned for high-octane drumming and elaborate stage setups, he also fronted Methods of Mayhem and released solo projects.

Actor Tommy Lee Jones poses in character as Agent K from Men in Black 3. He wears a dark pinstriped suit, white dress shirt, and patterned tie, facing forward with a stern expression against a muted grey studio backdrop. Ok but now imagine him steering a boat with his dick. Look it up.

- 10 vats of honey - 300 loaves - 32 ambers of ale - 2 cows - 10 geese - 20 hens - 10 cheeses - 1 amber of butter - 100 eels 🗃️🧪

Meme. Painting of an early English king, surrounded by his witan. The king is seated in teh middle, and is wearing a tall crown. He has an enormous sword over one shoulder, and a blue cape over the other. His beard is forked, and he is sporting a sly, confident smile. In this image he looks very much in charge, but if you saw him on a bus or a subway you would give him a wide berth and maybe call the transit police.

He is surrounded by 10 other men, most of whom are wearing conical hats. They look very much like party hats, honestly. Some of the hats are yellow, and some aren't colored in. The figure on the far right has no hat, but we shouldn't make a big deal about it. He probably already feels badly about being the only one at the hat party with no hat.

The surrounding figures are all looking at the king, but the king is looking at directly at you. You have his attention. So...now what?

Meme text reads:
"Ine perfect world
we'd all get eels"

An aspiring writer asked me “Are you writing a book or are you writing something that will one day become a book?” The distinction hit me like a brick. I don’t think there’s a wrong answer, but your answer says a lot about how the process works for you. I’m Option 2. Just FYI

Born on this day: Halsey, American singer‑songwriter celebrated for her genre‑blending pop and alternative sound, poetic lyricism, and bold visual storytelling. She's known for chart‑topping albums, outspoken activism, and redefining modern artistry through vulnerability and creative independence.

Daryl Hall, American singer‑songwriter known for Hall & Oates, gazes directly at the camera with pale blue eyes and tousled blond hair. His leather jacket and softly lit pastel background evoke 1980s pop‑rock glamour and understated confidence. I could have gone in a few different directions but I think this one is fun.

It feels like every culture must learn (and relearn again and again) that having wealth does not make one smart. It’s a parody of those Holidau Inn Express commercials. “Well, I’m not a doctor but I do have a billion dollars in my bank account.”

Hillary Clinton speaking at the 2024 Democratic National Convention. Pretty straightforward I thought. I can’t see anyone taking issue with this at all. It’s bulletproof really.

The Pope reminds me of a version of Catholicism I knew growing up as a young man attending anti-war and anti-death penalty protests, where I met elderly Catholics who shared their version of faith with me. I learned that Catholicism was about love and mercy for the weak, the condemned, and the poor.

This is true. In 2016, I got into an argument with a gay man on a menswear forum. I've since made it my mission to make every man dress gay, thereby destroying his ability to tell who is actually gay and, ultimately, his chances of finding love. I built my social media following to achieve that goal

Someone on Twitter writes to me: "People should follow your advise if they want to look gay."

Dammit, the Moon is doing a spectacular thing and as usual, it will not fit in my camera at all.

View over tan plains with cholla and distant blue mountains. The sky is blue but pink where the Belt of Venus hits. The moon is vanishing into clouds that cannot be seen as anything but the same shade of blue, and thus looks like a lidded eye.

James Doohan as Montgomery “Scotty” Scott on Star Trek (1966), wearing a red Starfleet engineering uniform with gold braid and insignia, holding a communicator in the Enterprise’s control room, surrounded by colorful indicator lights and futuristic panels.
