It's becoming really obvious to me that we're happily building LLM Skynet to wipe ourselves out. And it really bugs me that we're not even going to leave behind some real AI that will remember us. We're doing it all with Temu's Basilisk. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/24/w...

A Drone Killed Three Ukrainians. It Was Guided Entirely by A.I.
An attack by what Ukrainian officials said was a Russian drone with an Nvidia chip presages a dystopian future of weaponry untethered to humans.

@fromsuperheroes.com okay I'm gonna level with you. It wasn't until you started talking about Steve Martin that I realized the poster art WASN'T Martin Short.

@villainwasright.bsky.social for the record you are correct, the kink community does NOT like those movies. I have actually attended an MST3K-style hate-watch of the first one. Secretary is better, but still not a good representation. It's also intentionally hilarious. Try that one.

@villainwasright.bsky.social re: Sean Connery's accent in Highlander, it's so much worse than even that. He's the only Scotsman in a movie about Scotsman, playing "the Spaniard", but he claims to actually be from Egypt

To be clear. If "take me home, country roads" is your song, I'm not judging you for being country or redneck or anything like that. I'm judging you for being *boring*.

@villainwasright.bsky.social so...I was 9 when the original he-man movie came out. Let me tell you, this was the first movie I can remember that I saw the trailer on TV and went "... That... Is so different from the thing I like that I have no interest in watching it"

@howardtayler.bsky.social so this just happened. My girlfriend goes "so that cayenne pepper we used the other night?" Me: "yeah?" Her: "it's not cayenne pepper" Me: "what?" Her: "yeah. It says it's Crimson Drake Powder, it *may* contain cayenne." Me, dying laughing, shows her the other bottles.

If I can share this...
Nathan Pyle comic strip. Two bald eagles are sitting in easy chairs. One is reading a newspaper, the other is drinking a cup of coffee. Their conversation:

“Do you think the owl is a predator?”

“Of course not. He’s never bothered me.”

“Exactly. [pause, drinks coffee] No idea what Mr. Mouse was going on about.”

@tkingfisher.com so I found a wiki for the world of the white rat... And now I'm curious if the Forge God and the Sainted Smith are related somehow or maybe even the same person. RAFO? Yes? No? "I refuse to answer on the grounds that I refuse to constrain myself in some way"?

@tkingfisher.com is there a fan wiki of where your characters overlap in...er...paladinverse? Demonworld? The Decadent South? Wherever it's called. You know what I mean.

@tkingfisher.com "from the Obama administration" huh that's an odd way to measure that length of "That moon colony up there" Oh.... Huh. That is.... Interesting and I'm still not sure if it's in any way relevant to the story but it really does add a bit to the overall surreal quality

@zachweinersmith.bsky.social so, confession, I bought Bea Wolf a while ago but hadn't gotten around to reading it. My son just wasn't interested and I was busy. Cut to: this weekend. He's curious. I'm happy. But now he wants me to read it at bedtime. Cont.

@tkingfisher.com I saw your name in Nov. Amazon First Reads email & clicked "read now" so fast I didn't process that it was a book I'd already pre-ordered & that in doing so it cancelled said pre-order. I know preorders are important for book "placement", how does the first-reads thing work w/that?

@wilwheaton.net y'know.... There was a period where I kinda lost track of what you were doing, between the end of tabletop and finding bluesky. And frankly, that was a shame and I forgot how much I like you. Glad to have found you again.

xAI is blaming Grok's unsolicited "white genocide" rants on an unauthorized change. take a moment to consider the pains they would have gone through to mention the person responsible had been fired... if the person responsible wasn't Elon.

Han Solo showed up on Vader's death star hours after Alderaan was destroyed. On his ship he carried: Vader's son, Vader's daughter, Vader's astromech, the protocol droid Vader built as a kid, the wookie who saved Ahsoka's life, and literal Obi-Wan Kenobi back from the dead.
Vader must have been very "who in the Mustafar was that fucker in the vest?!"
Then something like a day later he sneaks up on Vader (one of the greatest pilots the galaxy has seen) in what is essentially a heavily modified 18-wheeler and shoots him in the
ass.

@reactorsff.bsky.social your age pop-up messes with me. "Are you between 13-15 years old?" No, I'm not, but I'm over 18, which is what age verifications always ask, so I think I've hit "yes" every time I've visited.

It’s bad enough that we’re being sold out, but we’re being sold out for such small potatoes. Not just her. Musk would absolutely strangle his own grandmother on stage for half an auditorium of people who’d laugh at his jokes.
