Definitive proof that Aurem Stolas (webcomic Dresden Codak by @dresdencodak.com) is going to turn into a llama.

Five images on a white background accompanied by text. Two images on the top row with an arrow leading from the first to the second: first, a cropped image of a skull-faced woman singing into a microphone wearing a white three-piece suit with bright colored lights in her background, second, the "theme song guy" character from the Disney movie The Emperor's New Groove. Next to these on the top row is the text "Definitive proof that Aurem Stolas is going to turn into a llama." On the bottom row, three images are connected by arrows sequentially: first, a picture of the character Aurem Stolas, a masculine character in a regal-looking blue shirt and white cloak; second, the character Emperor Cuzco from The Emperor's New Groove in a screenshot from the moment when he cues his "theme song guy", and third, a photo of two llamas wearing colorful knitted adornment around their necks and silly glasses, taken from a screenshot of a tourism website.

BREAKING: Ed Sheeran has been removed as an opening act for harpsichord virtuosa Maria Anna "Nannerl" Mozart (1751-1829). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_A...

Detail from the "Portait of the Mozart Family", an oil painting attributed to Johann Nepomuk della Croce circa 1871. The detail shows Maria Anna Mozart from the middle of her torso up. Her blond hair is styled into a large, blocky shape, wrapped with a pink bow. She is wearing a burgundy gown which is decorated with translucent lace at its borders and a reddish-pink bow. Her graze is toward the viewer's left.

I want to share this to add a theologian's thoughts: you can speak to Talarico using the biblical language of caring for "the widow, the orphan, and the stranger", and it may connect for him effectively. I don't know Talarico personally,

I'm getting the sense that the "For You" feed is kinda goofy. I'll make an obtuse joke about the Cleveland Browns and get sudden NFL highlight clips. I post something involving Samus being hungry and I see both stuff re Tyranids eating anything & someone's digestion struggles.

Dolly Parton was a Christian, and I want to say this on her behalf: we should be astonished at her. She was patient. She was kind. She was not jealous, she was not pompous, she was not inflated, she was not rude, she was not quick-tempered. 1/5

Name your favorite Disney Princess. Wrong answers only. Both of these two.

The characters Ashitaka and San from the movie Princess Mononoke. Ashitaka has his arm around San. Their faces have bloodstains, or possibly small wounds, and they have expressions of mixed fear and anger. They are both looking at something out of the frame of the image.

A Kirby vs Godzilla movie, if done well, could be one of the greatest (and most surreal) action movies of all time.

Catholicism fun fact: "Verbum Dei non est alligatum" does *not* mean "The Word of God is not an alligator." Therefore, the possibility is not ruled out that it *is* an alligator.

Pope Leo offers three reasons why "independent" AI cannot morally be used in war: 1) personal responsibility; 2) decision timeframe; and 3) identification and protection of civilians. www.vatican.va/content/leo-... paragraph 199 thread 1/4

"Yes, we will have peace," he said now in a clear voice, "we will have peace, when you and all your works have perished--and the works of your dark master to whom you would deliver us." Okay I went over 10 words.

I think websites aren't normally like this. Maybe the people running this website should do better.

UPDATE: Letters from Leo can now independently confirm that the meeting took place — and that the Vatican was so alarmed by the Pentagon’s tactics that Leo shelved plans to visit America. Some officials saw their reference to an Avignon papacy as a threat to use military force against the Holy See.

The Pentagon Threatened Pope Leo XIV’s Ambassador With the Avignon Papacy

The Free Press has documented a closed-door Pentagon meeting in which a senior Trump official lectured Pope Leo XIV’s ambassador on American military supremacy.

All these #NoKings signs were better than mine! And 1) this is a good problem to have, so I will talk myself through the jealousy, and 2) I am glad I was there.

Apparently bsky has some kind of vibe-coding idiot on its staff who is being dragged today for being an idiot? I think bsky can fix this by firing them and hiring someone who is not an idiot (especially if they know better than to use AI instead of being competent).
