Supermarket deli shelf with cold cuts labeled “KRETSCHMAR TURKEY OF THE BONE”

Dark Souls boss-ass cold cut name

Let's call this policy what this is.

It's socialism. It's Leftism. And it's curing actual ills. Righting institutional wrongs.

It's not coming from someone who is infallible, or someone who is always correct.

It's coming from someone who promised to help and is trying to keep those promises.

It is beyond belief that the UK government is speaking to these people with a view to entrusting them with sensitive data. This is a very handy overview of why that is madness.

A bin in my hospital room with the biohazard logo on it

Same as the previous picture, only rotated 45°, it does look like a monkey doesn’t it

Maybe I’ve got too much time on my hands here because today I noticed that if you rotate this familiar sign a little it goes from scary to looking like a smiling monkey face

This story deserves more attention. The gunman who killed two at FSU last year, injuring five, asked ChatGPT for advice on how many people one would need to kill for a school shooting to receive media attention, when the campus would be busiest, and how to use his gun.

State AG is investigating.

Wow. Almost like you hold public office and scrutiny is part of the job.

The part you keep avoiding until we get the courts involved.

"Elon Musk cooked his brain online. Marc Andreessen and others seemingly struggled with being in virtual spaces where their ideas and status were challenged, and rewired their political beliefs as a form of cope."

Good deep dive into tech broligarchy madness:

VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means?

ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]

Thanks in part to Carney dropping the federal excise tax on fuel, gas prices are down 11 cents/L! More if you add in the drop on the weekend. Let's see how long until that drop completely disappears.

I give it four days.

Like say all these guys are right and 30% of people have their jobs replaced in the next five years. What's the end game? What is that 30% of the population supposed to do?

"The Analytical Engine has no pretensions whatever to originate any thing. It can do whatever we know how to order it to perform. It [cannot] anticipat[e] any analytical relations or truths. Its province is to assist us in making available what we are already acquainted with."

Hello to @cooperatives.bsky.social and anyone else who cares about being inclusive of The Disabled Community.

“Fancy Fonts” are *not* readable by screen readers. Any time you use them to *emphasize* a point, you are *actively* excluding disabled people.

This font is a blank to screen reader:

Homelessness on the Rise in Finland - Y-Säätiö Asunnottomien ihmisten määrä on kääntynyt kasvuun. Nyt asunnottomien määrä kasvoi Helsingissä, vaikka asunnottomia asutettiin vuoden aikana vaikuttava määrä.

Sadly the current right-wing coalition government in Finland has foolishly cut the funding for the nation’s “Housing First” success story, and homelessness is predictably now on the rise again. That just reinforces the fact that such programs work, if lazy political ideology doesn’t get in the way.

A tranquil woodland scene on the grounds of the former Bessboro mother and baby home: a moss-covered fallen tree arches low across the frame, surrounded by slender, leafing branches. The forest floor is carpeted with vibrant green moss, ferns, and clusters of delicate purple-blue wildflowers, likely bluebells, creating a soft, almost luminous contrast against the earthy browns. Sunlight filters through the canopy, dappling the scene with warm highlights, lending a sense of quiet beauty and stillness to a place with a notorious history.

Blown away by the reaction to yesterday’s photo. Thanks for all the shares and likes. Here’s another from the opposite direction.

Ada Lovelace failed to consider TURNS OUT NO SHE DID FUCKING CONSIDER THAT

I absolutely adore how scholars centuries or even millenia in the past have the slop cultists dead to rights.

Why go with Toyota when Torment Lexus is right there?

Some people have misunderstood this.

We literally saw how Claude itself, coded by Claude, turns one API call into a DOS of thousands upon thousands of API calls done in the sloppiest fucking way possible.

This postmortem shows Bluesky vibecoded a function to DOS itself, in a similarly stupid way.

This is the most human a robot has ever been

An old Calvin and Hobbes that’s meta, where Calvin is speaking as drawn by himself and depicted as a crude vacant monster type, obviously breaking down in silliness, before Calvin “irl” is seen saying that he gives up, and Hobbes saying by the end it was getting pretty good, with the last being a goateed demon Calvin

NASA astronaut Christina Koch sits in an U.S. Navy MH-60S Seahawk attached to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 23 on the flight deck of the San Antonio Class amphibious transport dock USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) after returning from space on Apr. 10, 2026.

This picture of Astronaut Christina Koch after the Artemis landing is frankly incredible and beautiful.

Okay, this is asking for trouble.

Look at your human bedroom

Almost every single human sleeps with their feet closest to the exit of that room, and their head furthest away.

Peak retired academic moment.
1. One of those emails: Are you the R Watt who wrote xxxxxx?
2. Nope, but it sounds vaguely interesting. Wonder what they found.
3. Google - read it and discover that I did write it.

This needs to be taken seriously. Along with underfunding, Doug Ford is destroying the university system. And yes, this latest move is 100% in line with what we've seen happening by state-level MAGA-hats in the US.

And we have receipts. Jim Dolan's security team at Madison Square Garden surveilled this woman over the course of *years* and in the smallest detail ... because she was trans.

Has Canada ever had a Minister of <insert hot new tech> before? I don't think so, but am willing to be corrected.

Because we somehow gained a useless Minister of AI with our latest government.

Take all the tech billionaires' money and give it scientists.
