Newton's Wallaby Takes In Sights of Las Vegas Wayne Newton's wallaby escaped from the performer's home, leading police, animal control officers and an urban cowboy on a two-mile chase through south Las Vegas.

imagine being on a school bus in the desert and seeing a wallaby. real btw

yeah! like you'd still have palo verdes and date palms and such for landscaping + shade but they're in rock beds and almost never need watered. and then you drive by fuckin wayne newton's compound or whatever and it's all green and you think he's insane. and then his wallaby escapes again.

wait they have chick-fil-a in vegas now? whadda hell

like these are vegas suburbs. your backyard is some rocks and shrubs and a small pool if you're fancy. you can tell the bougie neighborhoods by the Green Infill and even then they're more Dense than ive seen literally anywhere else in the country

i lived in vegas for a while as a kid and it's fucking wild how much of the infrastructure (except golf lol) is built for Being In A Desert. i didn't think grass lawns were ubiquitous outside of the desert i thought they were made up for cartoons lmao

im leaning a lot on dataview right now, i use obsidian for ttrpg planning so it's been kind of funny seeing how different the ecosystems have wound up in terms of plugins and functionality

yellow dots are people (trump is of course the fucking sun), red are Events, gray are the clusters/narratives. there's a few loose categories that im still working out how to integrate - news articles, social media posts and such. but just figuring out how to tackle the firehose has been rewarding

the skeleton for this is literally my discord's politics quarantine lmao. like damn we've been sharing sources and running commentary nonstop for the past several years. i can turn this into a resource. still a little stymied on how to make it useful to others but the proof of concept is here

fwiw your pivot to wiki argument did inspire me to start a timeline project for trump ii, i'm still in the process of categorizing and building out specific Threads but it's already been very helpful for contextualizing so much of The Bullshit. so there's at least 1!

The American people voted to let daddy hit mommy so they could have candy for breakfast despite him going a little silly in the head. They figured mommy could clean up whatever mess daddy made. Now mommy’s brains are splattered against the wall and daddy pissed in their candy bowl.

he went up ☝️

combining the discussion of airport discourse and covid trauma to say that i had to piss in the bushes outside jfk while waiting to pick up a friend who got stuck in customs because nobody who wasn't a passenger was allowed in and there were no portapotties set up anywhere

Although Altman is not a murderer, and even though his haircut is (barely) better than Chigurh's, I would be lying to you if I said I didn’t recognize profound similarities between them.

🔥 Incredible footage of Ukrainian Yak-52 crews in action. Pilots of the 11th Separate Army Aviation Brigade “Kherson” clear the skies of Russian drones.

wild that they presumably have the data for entire comics book industry illustrating how this just pisses people off and makes them look like jackasses and yet,

bowser is corporate greed, sky

iirc they lived in a cave after failing to kill napoleon (i think????) until they got lonely in the late 60s and go looking for a new leader (aiui specifically to avoid the 'minions become nazis' situation) so. whoops.

daredevil (2003) is also not Good. but it's one of the best superhero movies of all time. the evanescence helps

i have a soft spot for the 2005 one because pre-MCU superhero movies are such fascinating artifacts now. that and the silly montage where they're all just dicking around with their powers

Yes correct which is why they ordered it to stop and when it didn't used limited force to disable it and take it into custody instead of sinking it

please don't lobotomize yourself about data centers even if you think it's for a good cause

ive managed to become the AI Guy of my general circles just by being informed enough to be like 'oh nah they figured that out actually' when the 2024 criticisms pop up. the bar is so low

alas, curse my thinking that sometimes people are surprised by new information and genuinely want to learn more!

and i gave a genuine answer. you followed up by asking me to use an llm to try and divine why your dog made a weird sound. whatever point you're trying to make about llms is irrelevant to me, since i know the limits of the tool. and then your weird reply guy decided im a schooled llm-diehard.

i already know that playing riddles in the dark with a robot is stupid. just thought answering the question she asked about how to change llm behavior would be helpful, thinking that it was a genuine question and not weird bait that would result in lawyers trying to dunk on me.
