I like how so much of the pitch with generative AI is that it can be "creative" but every time we see OpenAI sponsor Alex Palou it's just a flat black car

A striped cat appears to be “yelling” at a kitten with the exact same coloring. The kitten’s eyes are wide open and their ears pinned back.

you just know somebody’s being called by their full name right now

i think we just need less of everything. less work, less new stuff happening, less being produced, less bullshit media, less technology. everything in the world needs to be like 30-40% less. except medicine. and sex.

yep, they started it as a way to earn money to eventually buy @capitolhillbooks.bsky.social

despite not having seen @pantherraccoon.bsky.social and I for months, the guys at Atlixco’s Grill remembered our order when we rocked up to the #SWDC farmers market this morning

The Nationals fall to 9-11 on Military Appreciation Day

The head of the FBI isn't supposed to be getting blackout drunk. He's supposed to be cross-dressing

pretty awesome seeing Jen Pawol in action behind home plate tonight #Nats

May your smoke alarms be always working.
May your dog be always happy.
May your fire extinguisher be always accessible.
May your ladder be always on a firm, flat surface.
May your cat be around.

too many less-deserving Pixar films got sequels

MOOCs in higher ed was very similar (and caused harms that lasted after the idea had disappeared).

started taking disposable earplugs in my ballpark bag after seeing a kid melt down from overstimulation, much to their parents’ relief, and I hate it for them

an unexpected benefit of having Charlie and Dave in my ear is muting the overuse of Nats Park’s sound system

This is why D.C. needs statehood.

From the Book of The Wire, S3:E1

Omar finishes: “Man, I do unto motherfuckers before they do unto me.”

We have failed the youths.

I cannot be the only person who did not know there is a difference between Freedom 250 and America 250 until today.

👍🏻 America 250
👎🏻 Freedom 250

I am a DC resident, and I pay federal taxes. There is no vote for me in Congress. If you have representation on the hill, tell your members of Congress that you support DC Statehood.

This year, like every year for the last 17, @pantherraccoon.bsky.social and I paid our taxes to a government in which we have no representation. It feels far worse than in previous years because of the things done with that money that zealous representation might have been able to curb or stop.

I've filed my federal taxes, but as a citizen of DC I face #TaxationWithoutRepresentation. DC isn't a state so the 700,000 people who live here have no voting representation in Congress. Will you stand with me and demand #DCStatehood now? #LetDCVote #TaxDay @dcvote.bsky.social

especially in April

The title refers to the quote "Ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?" Producer Ron Moore has said they knew the quote from 1989's 'Batman', but assumed it was from elsewhere in history or literature. It was not. It's just from 'Batman.' So, the episode is named after a Joker quote.

has ATC ever tried to play the Cat Game from Super Troopers?

the IMF/World Bank Spring Meetings are happening this week, and it was awesome seeing a lady in a Maria Clara and shouting “Kumusta, kababayan?” across 19th Street
