❌ AI generated slop menus with pictures that make your food look like worms ✅ scribbles on a piece of paper saying how much the soup cost

4 panel comic: Panel 1: A chef with a wooden spoon talks to a brown dog (bruno). He says “I have a new business!” Bruno answers “cool!” Panel 2: he shows his menu. He says “this is my menu”. We can’t quite read what it says yet Panel 3: a zoom in on the menu. It has just a few lines written on it. Soup: 1. Bread: 1. Soup + Bread: 2. He kept it very simple! Panel 4: He shows Bruno a small pencil. He says “I designed it with this”. Bruno approves and goes “nice!”

I am 100% in favor of whatever keeps "PUAs" away from actual flesh-and-blood women. They don't actually WANT real partners anyway, they want trophies to impress other men and fawning, compliant half-minds to affirm their every random thought, so it's a perfect match, really.

An entity can be categorically dismissed as ethically bankrupt when it feels the need to engage in subterfuge and theft of intellectual property in an attempt to obfuscate and discredit the information disseminated by the original IP.

Le Guin on the idea that there is a secret to getting good at writing.

I will dispose of the first myth as quickly as possible. The “secret” is skill. If you haven’t learned how to do something, the people who have may seem to be magicians, possessors of mysterious secrets. In a fairly simple art, such as making pie crust, there are certain teachable “secrets” of method that lead almost infallibly to good results; but in any complex art, such as housekeeping, piano-playing, clothes-making, or story-writing, there are so many techniques, skills, choices of method, so many variables, so many “secrets,” some teachable and some not, that you can learn them only by methodical, repeated, long-continued practice — in other words, by work.

Horrifying: Arizona Democratic congressional candidate Bernadette Greene-Placentia was raped by a man after he knocked her out. Another man approached her to do the same. “She began swinging her foot at him. ‘Not even worth it,’ she heard the man say as he moved away.”

Embarrassed, she initially didn’t want to report attack. Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office's investigation is ongoing.

The media & political establishment obsesses over the absence of global leaders at pre-COP. And ignored the Albanese govt's real failure: their pretence of concern for #ClimateCrisis impacts on Pacific nations, while continuing to approve massive fossil fuel projects at home. #hypocrisy #auspol

The state of our political media

Phil Coorey op-ed

“Taylor’s middle ground on migration might be the safest course”

“In a belated, yet noteworthy, contribution to the immigration debate, the Coalition has tried to reconcile two competing interests: how to slash the number of arrivals without hurting the economy.”

You can buy a huge media conglomerate with money you don't have using leveraged debt you'll never pay off and then immediately start firing its workers, but people will still say that capitalism is compatible with democracy and is capable of "reform" or "regulation"

I'm not interested in the theoretical debate about whether Zionism is inherently racist, I'm more concerned with reality and that the actual Israeli STATE is extremely racist and currently engaged in a well documented genocide against the Palestinian people.

In the US, even Republicans are beginning to question their unquestioning adherence to Israel. Meanwhile in Australia, a craven Labor prime minister won't even allow a debate. #auspol pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/10...

The Republican consensus on Israel is starting to fracture

Christian Zionism helped turn support for Israel into Republican orthodoxy. But America First scepticism and a growing generational divide are exposing cracks in a coalition once treated as politicall...

OpenAI are parasitic scum. As Wikimedia says; “AI companies are not doing enough to secure their systems and protect the public from the harm they cause.” These are DDOS attacks by a corporation's software doing exactly what it was designed to do. Why are we not seeing criminal charges?

Did you know you only need a small brain to make silly little drawings?

4 panel comic: Panel 1: pink blob guy on a table, pencil in their hands. Grey circle on a piece of paper and a glass of water on the table. They say “look here” Panel 2: Proudly, they hold up the drawing of a grey blobby character on two stick legs up in the air. The pink blob says “I drew this!” Panel 3: Satisfied they sit back down on the table. They now go “it’s not much, but..” The grey drawing looks a bit peeved because the drawer is calling it “not much” Panel 4: But it’s okay, because now the pink blob is very pleased finally. He says “it came from my brain!” Holding the pencil up. The grey drawing blob is happy again, too. End well, all well!

For all the talk of Ai replacing creatives, the reason this "Tiffany Sloan" is stealing other comedians' jokes is because Ai can't write jokes. LLMs are built on anticipating what word or piece of information you're looking for and comedy is built on surprise. Also, Christ what a weird fetish...

So turns out the answer to “if Franklin knew it was a helix why wasn’t it in her notes” turns out to be “because the famous photo was a second, better photograph she took for accuracy and all the useful notes stayed with the earlier flawed photo where she talks about it being a helix.”
