AI text detectors are sort of famously complete horseshit, though. bsky.app/profile/sara...

Oh that's interesting, they even end the episode by specifically talking about how the popcorn button is important to the hearing impaired since they can't listen to the pops. As I said this isn't a podcast I usually listen to so I don't know where they post transcripts.

Listen to the episode! (but generally, they go into the history of how the popcorn button came to be in the first place, which turns out to be an interesting story)

For those who, like me, are more in Alec's audience, I will say, the episode *starts* with what Alec's covered in his videos, and goes in an extremely interesting direction from there.

Once again was on a train this morning that was packed with people standing by the doors while the middle part of the car was empty 🫠

The problem with being a person who thinks it'd be good if AI could do all our work for us, actually, is that I get to share that opinion with a bunch of people who view spending time with their human child as work.

I'm down with turning Jackson into apartments but it just feels like I'm being actively shit on by some of these accounts and it's not my favorite thing.

I think I'm officially done with the "urbanist" accounts that are upset that Pinehurst exists? Like, I'm literally someone who benefits heavily from its existence, and it's as far away from Shoreline South as UW is from U-District. So what the fuck are we talking about.

As a Lake City resident, I'm so excited that I've had ten minutes trimmed off my commute time. When they finish the bike lane construction, I might even have an option to bike to a light rail station soon!

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I'm very excited about the fact that I got to follow up my not-that-great open mic comedy set with some karaoke, I'm a lot better at the latter 🤣

That's not a flag on the Chargers, honestly, but like half of these flags have been that weak, so.

What the fuck are you talking about, John.

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I get that the rule forces the flag there, it's just dumb that a defender who loses his balance isn't allowed to make a tackle.

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Lmao not allowed to tackle a quarterback sure

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Uh, I thought "the ground can't cause a fumble" was like, a fundamental rule of fumbles, what the fuck just happened in Santa Clara

When has that *ever* been a flag before???

CBS: shows a replay of JSN being covered until his defender breaks to go tackle Barner after the throw Announcers: "Look how wide open JSN was!"

I don't know if it's sustainable for the best part of the Seahawks offense to be recovering muffed punts.

Never expect anything of the Philadelphia Eagles.

Of course the light rail is packed with people wearing Jet Lag merch on my way home. Wouldn't expect anything less.

Just getting out of the Jet Lag: Finale screening. Holy shit. The boys really delivered with this one. Absolutely amazing. Now to read all of the pissed off comments on the subreddit about the Episode 7 release lol.

This one's definitely real, though.

A glass of beer and the can it was poured from next to each other on a counter. The beer is on the left in a Spaghetti Factory pint glass and is a mostly clear amber color with a small amount of foam at the top. The can reads "NAZI PUNKS FUCK OFF! Italian Style Pilsner Future Primitive Brewing" in white letters on a black background.

Were people really dooming about being down a goal to SKC? Do you know how many times the Sounders have stabbed a spork in their heart from that position??

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

I don't think it's unethical or whatever, but there's a reason I didn't play the genocide route in Undertale, and it's not because I think Sans is a real person.

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Like, I don't really believe, at least based on my lived experience, that cruelty is something I have inside me that I need an outlet for in the form of yelling at a computer. I was an angry online gamer once, and that just made me experience anger more often than I would've otherwise.

I don't think you should be nice to the LLM because I think it has feelings, I think you should be nice to the LLM because it'll make you more likely to be nice to other people you interact with, too.

This was actually the fastest way for me to get home today. Well, except for the part where I missed my bus connection.

The new Pinehurst Seattle Light Rail station as viewed from the south.

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I was more replying to the post you quoted, obviously NYC > YVR but going from Seattle light rail to Vancouver sky train with its automated two minute headways wakes you up enough to how much better Seattle could be. And it's a more comparable metro population wise.

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I don't even need to go to NYC for this, I just need to drive two hours north to Vancouver, BC.

The keyboard player made me truly believe that there was nothing he wanted to do more in his life than play "Megolovania" and it was awesome.

Marty @thatgroovything.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

They played "His Theme" and then put a THE END title card on the projector, then played "Song That Might Play When You Fight Sans" as a troll before launching into an amazing "Megolovania," no notes.

Currently at intermission of the Undertale Symphony at Benaroya. Seeing the soundtrack from your favorite video game performed live by professional musicians is an 12/10 experience. Absolutely stunning.

Like, I think the panning camera is doing some work here, if you stabilized this image I'm pretty sure you'd see 13 trying to come to a stop and just getting shoved out of the way instead.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills because everyone and their mother is talking about how bad this call was while to my eyes it looks like 37 clearly shoves the receiver out of position and that's why he makes the INT?

It's my understanding that Rolling Stone published an article that basically said "it's kinda weird to act proud of the fact that you haven't heard of the longest-running #1 song on the Hot 100" and a bunch of people responded by being proud of the fact that they haven't heard said song.
