The spider that bit Peter Parker is also down there fighting crime. A moth stealing a silkworms’s silk. Bee trapping bugs in honey. He’s like I will dedicate my one-to-two-year lifespan to protecting the pile of mulch that I love lol. Mary Jane is a grasshopper.
We Are Charlie Kirk IS art. It being AI adds to its artistic value.

The simplified story of how the hoverfly became a bee mimic, as an example of how mimics evolve
Back to working on my book, after a busy weekend with a giant robot mantis!
This is a gross oversimplification of how mimicry occurs, and I don't know if the stripes or the yellow came first. Entomologists and evolutionary biologists, feel free to chime in!

Kodiak Bear (Ursus arctos middendorffi) in Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska, United States. He appears to sniff the air, or look surprised, and he's a beautiful shaggy light brown, like the color of a cinnamon stick. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_bear#/media/File:2010-kodiak-bear-1.jpg
Okay, let's talk about the etymology of 'bear' & how superstition shaped animal names.
First there are two meanings to 'bear' in mind:
1. (v.) Endure, give birth, hold up, sustain.
From Proto-Germanic 'beranan' likely from a PIE root 'bher-' that also produced "bring".
2. (n.) This thing ↓
I hate this but it's also one of my favourite "we're not so different" moments: our ancestors avoided uttering certain words for fear of summoning forces beyond their understanding (that's eg how we got the word 'bear', literally 'brown') and here we are saying 'unalive'/'grape' to appease the algo

ผมโคดเกลียดพวกคาเฟ่สัตว์หรือสวนสัตว์ในอีเว้นต์วันเด็กตามห้างต่างๆ แบบนี้มาก
คุณไม่ได้กำลังสนับสนุนเด็กให้รักสัตว์ คุณกำลังสอนเด็กให้เห็นสัตว์เป็นของเล่นที่เขาจะทำอะไรก็ได้ จะจับจะอุ้มตอนไหนก็ได้ คุณกำลังสอนความเข้าใจที่บิดเบี้ยวต่อเด็กๆ ถึงความหมายของคำว่า "การรักสัตว์"

researching to find out if there's an "EXTREME AI HATERS" blocklist I can try to get on too by taking it up another level
This is one of the best pieces of pop culture writing I've read in the past couple of years. These excerpts are great but you need to read how the build to that last one. Goddamn. Thank you @awalrusdarkly.bsky.social and @popheist.com
Me too

Holy shit Noah Hawley is good (and this very clearly demonstrates that he understands the Alien assignment).
SICARIO is a weird case tbh where I think there's a tension between the screenplay (which thinks Alejandro and Matt are cool guys) and the actual movie as directed by Villenueve (which clearly thinks they are the villains)

A dog poses on a table. He's surrounded by a tailor's measuring tape.
Every time this tailor posts a photo of their workspace, it looks like their dog is a tailor and he's showing off the garments he made.

Magnolia fun fact: they are one of the most ancient flowering plants, having been around since the Cretaceous, when dinosaurs roamed the earth. They are so old they were around before bees evolved - they were (and still are) pollinated by beetles! That's why their blooms are so huge.
hello to everyone else included in the "anti-ai ai haters" blocklist the technical advisor of bluesky just followed 🫡 it's an honor just to be nominated
that seems bad, jay
you never should've let me respond to this post, jay. I will be bringing it back every time it seems even a little bit appropriate
a digital illustrated comic, supposedly presenting tasty looking foods we all wanted to try from cartoons- the krabby patty, the goofy movie pizza, the bacon and eggs from howl's moving castle, scooby snacks, the land before time tree stars, the jaw breakers from ed edd and eddy- but also includes Simba's dead father Mufasa, and Shinji's hand from *that scene* in NGE.
Still proud of this comic from 2022, though the first time I shared it on various platforms, a lot of people seemed to ignore the obvious jokes of the piece to pester me about cartoon foods I "forgot" to include
