My partner is playing some game on her phone and goes, "I hit the early middle ages," and I go, "Yeah you have," to zing her, but hurt my own feelings because she's only a few weeks older than me.

Oh no.
Muttering, "Just one night of good sleep and I'll be back to normal," every day until you die.
Our smallest cat just brought me a whole roll of paper towel as a gift. Two nights ago it was a Prismacolor marker. By next week it could be a piece of furniture.
No, Disney was blindsided by them shutting it down and have even made a statement.
April 1st is in a few days.

This song kicks ass and the video is a real treat if you love movies, too cool.
Before AI, artists used prompts to engage their own imaginations, to plant a seed and run with their own creativity.
Now, prompts are something you feed into a machine so it can imagine and create FOR you.
Sadly, many people don't see the difference.
I made a papercraft just for this
Goldman Sachs reports that 300 million full-time jobs could be replaced by AI by 2030. Labor turnover is high and hiring has slowed. 71% of Americans worry that AI will cause permanent job loss. As young people about to enter the workforce for the first time, the fear of unemployment is understandable, but we cannot save ourselves with the very tool that is putting us at risk. The irony is that as Penn pours endless money and energy into AI advancement in its attempt to get ahead, the University is only quickening its own demise. AI cannot coexist with education — it can only degrade it. As technology advances and workers are replaced by machines, schools are some of the only places we have left to explore and wrestle with human thought. With our own university leading the charge, AI is now corrupting those few sacred spaces and leaving us with nowhere to engage in true scholarship. Editorials represent the majority view of members of The Daily Pennsylvanian Editorial Board who meet regularly to discuss issues relevant to the Penn community. This body is led by Editorial Board Chair Jack Lakis and is entirely separate from the newsroom. Questions or comments should be directed to letters@thedp.com.
An unaccounted for part of the economy is how much young people virulently hate AI, despite how aggressively it's being forced on them. They realize it's making their friends dumber and ruining the world and they want nothing to do with it.

I'm struggling through Covid right now, and man, this is medicinal as f*ck.
Oh HELL yes! 🔥
OpenAI is pulling the plug on their AI video generator Sora, and with it goes their deal with Disney to bring AI gen to Disney+.
OpenAI seems to be in serious financial trouble, what a shame 🖕
The fever broke already, which is quite the surprise. I think it only lasted a day to a day and a half. Feeling loads better, what a relief.
I knooooowww, I'm so annoyed. Thanks Nikki!
Spent last night uncontrollably shaking and oscillating between freezing and boiling and wishing I was dead. Took a test today, it's baby's first Covid!
I need you to see my cat.
There was actually kind of a whirlwind of issues. One of the guys got cancer and it was delayed, but then there were also rights issues, and problems finding a suitable location. The statue itself was completed back in 2017 if I recall.
Cause it's awesome.
Nestling my head in the hand of the 10 foot bronze RoboCop.
It took 14 years, but we finally have our RoboCop statue in Detroit 🖤
I salted the threshold, now what.
Like, should I salt my front door or the cursed artifact, lol.
Just caught my cat sleeping with her eyes wide open looking right at me, cool cool.
Okay, nope, I put it on the floor just outside the door of my office, and a sign suddenly fell off my wall while I was in there. Never happened before. I don't believe in this stuff, but hell no. It's face down out on the porch until I can get rid of it. Absolutely not. I'm done.
Genuinely annoyed how every sound in the house is spooky now because of this thing. I swear the cats are making new sounds, so I'm trying to mentally keep track of where they all are. I did find our vintage quilted cat on the ground from his perch. No idea on his history, but he's chill.
Oh no, I watched a video on that once.
She's so mad, she just said, "It's like you've never seen a fucking movie." Then she made me use Google lens on it, and it didn't help at all that it gave back the necronomicon and some other weird shit.
Okay, so we slept with it up, and I had to take it down this morning because my partner SWEARS she woke up and heard it say it was going to kill her. I think she's full of shit, obviously, so I took it to my office because I'm not ready to throw out $50 after like ONE nightmare or whatever.
