Vaguely related: Neighbour in Enmore decided to build a new taller fence between the back of our houses. She left the existing one and built the new one next to it. I knocked down the old, now redundant, fence and 'gained' ~30 cm of land; which was quite noticable on a 4 metre block.

I asked ChatGPT to create a cover for a course catalogue of a "university for people who have given up thinking due to AI over-reliance". To be fair, this is a pretty good take -- and more subtle than I expected... #aislop #criticalthinking #deskillling #chatGPT #philsky
ChatGPT-created fictitious cover of a course catalogue of a university for people who have give up thinking: android leaning back with a mug "AI does thinking for you" in front of him, and advertised degree programmes "BA in Artificial Thought" and "PhD in Epistemic Delegation".

Friends, can we all block and report @scuba-diving-5.bsky.social — they are pretending to sell my stuff on merch (check their replies tab), but it’s a credit card number theft scam. Hopefully nobody got ripped off, but if you did, call your credit card company ASAP.

One thing I'd have liked is two or three baskets rather than just one. I reckon the local bargain store might have storage baskets that would fit though, I'll check tomorrow.

📌This naked statue of Trump, The Orange Plague, in the European Parliament in Strasbourg is exactly how you handle this deviant, who uses his office to celebrate himself, and crush others. He needs to know that THIS is how he will be remembered when he finally takes his last gasp.

Mostly negative reviews; I think the positives were a result of the rodents dying of obesity or old age.

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

Brief: Who is running marketing for Pauline Hanson’s One Nation... apart from pro-Israel figures.
It has just been revealed that One Nation’s latest advertisement is an AI slop (almost) word-for-word copy of an ad for Netanyahu. The video for their Victorian launch was more toxic AI slop.
