The “Calvin’s dad explains two types” meme, inspired by a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. Clockwise from top left: 1) Calvin’s dad walks into frame to find Calvin trying to operate a record player. The dad says: “There are only two industries left in America: gambling, and fraud.” 2) The dad shows where the record goes, and how to turn on the player, while Calvin watches. Dad says “Derivatives? Gambling. AI? Fraud. Video games? Gambling. Social media? Fraud.” Calvin says “yeah”. 3) With one hand open palm up, Calvin’s dad cheerfully explains to Calvin out of frame below him, “The stock market looks like gambling, but it’s actually fraud.” 4) In bed in a dark room, Calvin clutches at his pillow, eyes wide in existential terror. There is no text in the panel.

Going to be so funny watching people try and act like this never happened one day
Our listener, Markus, lost a friend tragically a month or so ago, and when he went to search info about her online, he found a bunch of AI generated, deeply edited incorrect info about her. Looking into these took us places. Please listen.
@ItsBCJim The bad part of getting older is that you become an NPC, the good part is that being an NPC rocks. Nothing like walking down the street with a thought bubble that's just a sandwich you're looking forward to. Protagonism is best left to teens and the insane

"History will judge-" let me stop you right fucking there, history doesn't do fucking shit, I'm a historian, let's be clear here: elected officials need to do their fucking jobs, right now, before it happens, or future historians will judge THEM. Everyone knows and knew who Trump was.
I ate your PLUMS and I cannot lie
I'm guilty and I won't deny
That when I found them kept in a pretty chilly place

and man, YUM, couldn't have enough
'Cause you know that my tum is stuffed,
But you were breakfast saving,
Your forgiveness now I'm craving
This is maybe only pertinent to pro wrestling fans but Dave Meltzer experiencing an earthquake live on stream and going “ok so it’s a 5, that’s, you know that’s significant but 6 are worse” in the exact patter that he describes a Young Bucks match is very funny
Imagine not knowing anything about pro wrestling and seeing this thumbnail

WD-40 social media post: "something iconic is coming. Stay tuned." (Spoilers: it was actually a King Of The Hill collaboration)
we're finally getting WD-41 🙏

I like that this post allows me to say that Weird Al Yankovic is the most powerful man in Hollywood and everyone has to be like “…it does seem that way”
Saw him last year; he was real good, you’ll have a great time
IHOP/Applebee’s opening here March 17 where Chili’s used to be on Vic East

A screenshot of Rachel Dratch from SNL. She's a white woman with short dark hair and blue eyes, and she's making an awkward expression that implies, "Sorry I have to tell you this and ruin your good time. But also I'm kind of not sorry about it." I've added a subtitle that reads, "That's AI."
an updated debbie downer sketch but it's friends showing her funny videos and she has to respond like this to every single one like this:
A sleeping (?) black cat on a lap
I’m convinced that everything posted there by Shounak Chakrabarti is 100% AI slop
When Back to the Future 2 ended on a cliffhanger, 13-year-old me was so mad he vowed to never watch BTTF3. Still haven’t.
So sorry to hear this. Losing a pet is so hard. I hope you’re doing okay.
