The Rapture was today? How’d it go? …Are they gone?

The Rapture was today? How’d it go? …Are they gone?
I’m horrified that commercial never aired here. It’s a masterwork
ChatGPT? Is that you?
Charlie Kirk was one of the worst shits in America and his getting shot in the neck doesn’t change that in the least
The Ballon d’Or is bullshit. Why do we have this
Heartbreaking when you play for the point and the opposition doesn’t have the decency to not score #MLS #EveryoneN
If the Fever ever seriously get into it at the new WNBA team in Detroit, I’m struggling to think of a better name for it than “The Tortfeasors at Little Caesar’s.” That’s not very good #WNBA
That time in 1971 when performance artist Chris Burden had himself shot, saying the concept arose from “the common folklore and televisual motif of getting shot.”

I see, ugh
Oh for sure. The surrounding political context is obvious. I was just wondering if the algorithm was now coming for people who used that word
Yahtzee? Do we have to do that on here?
the gates of the american auschwitz will say something like "live, laugh, love" or "touch grass"
Oh lol it just actually happened Antifa is a terrorist organization
The courts won’t act to fix that. The Supreme Court is captured by the ultra-right; the bill of rights is a dead letter. Simply using the words “national security” acts as an automatic justification for anything this administration wants to do
“Antifa” is going to be designated a terrorist group very soon. That antifa isn’t a group—just a word, an abbreviation—won’t matter. The point is that being explicitly antifascist, even if you don’t act on that belief, or only in constitutionality-protected ways, is going to be a federal crime.
Oh my god the split scarf for this game misspelled “Philadelphia” #EveryoneN #COYBIG #NashvilleSC
Got to start importing my list of muted terms (a couple of hundred items by now) from mastodon to here
I’m actually the most compelling poster but I’ve kept that fact a complete secret
I wasn’t radicalized by the internet. I was radicalized by Marx, the way God intended
I just don’t think there are a lot of antifa on 8chan but you tell me
The problem with a lot of these things people recommend to me is that I don’t care for them
I’m more of a panicked prickly scream churl, myself
The extremely rich are not even the same species as the rest of us
Fantastic. Four dummies.
I mean this is just incredible
Let me know if it turns out this kid really is a groyper, and that’s what the channer memes on his brass actually mean Because that’d be too ironic for words
yeah, I can't be pious about this. don't ask me to.
The number and scale of the hilarious ironies in Charlie Kirk's death are just off the charts

Saw the first slight signs of leaves turning and it improved my mood I know it’s probably just because it’s so dry here but I need this
That’s how clankers get high
Given his age it would be more surprising if Trump had no major health problems. Who knows. But they will not tell us. There will be no big announcements. He is the healthiest, smartest, and best of all humans that have ever lived.
The invasions and bombings will continue until he gets the Nobel peace prize
Totally expected and predictable. Hilariously so. Luis Suarez is still the worst shit in the game, and can always be counted on to be completely horrendous. What a piece of work
That was so hilariously expected. Really funny. OF COURSE Suarez and the rest of Inter Miami had a meltdown and started a brawl, and Falcon put de la Vega in a headlock and Suarez would tried to choke Obed Vargas and then spit on an old man. All on national television What a league. What a Cup
Today we are all Sounders fans
Far from the only one!
I’ve never seen anything like these. Amazing. The work of experimental animator Yoshinao Satoh. Avoid if you are sensitive to flashing lights or stroboscopic motion. “Papers” youtu.be/17KyiyH25ro “Cutout” youtu.be/Y5e9e50uWP0

I think I hate the weak reactionary geriatric corrupt Democrats only a hair less than I hate Trump

The latest abominable thing is seeing a band that no longer exists do a new cover of a song whose originator is dead Thanks AI

They just scraped the mayo off and brought it back but did a half-assed job. Probably didn’t even change the bread You were getting the same burger over and over
Ah, I see…Joe is going to be self-sacrificing.

Good, as long as we can prevent skill erosion where that is very bad, and the disappearance of forms of work that we value humans doing …which aren’t easy problems
yeah, and it isn't being marketed that way. To me it sounds like much current use of LLMs is misuse. we're not using it to point at things - we already rely on it giving fully-formed answers, and it obscures the sources.
I don't want to know
James Dobson is in hell now. I mean, he isn't. That's not a real thing. But we can pretend
Strangely in my experience this has been more of a libertarian and right-wing hobby than a left pastime, but I’ll look around. Liberals in particular are concerned about the possible consequences of a new constitutional convention, and so hardly seem to dare speak of it, for fear of conjuring one
This is fine

with respect to Nashville SC, this is extremely stupid
Congratulations to @naomikritzer.bsky.social for picking up another Hugo! 🚀🚀🚀🚀
yeah but I have no idea what's going on all I know is we can't go on like this
I’ve had the theme from that show as an earworm for forty years Duh da dah Du day dah Dee Dee dah Etc
Meanwhile, we are all wondering about Strasbourg
I wonder why we can make technological progress but we can't make ethical or political progress
Remember when some Democratic influencer-types said if we called the Trumpers “weird” often enough, they’d wilt, and the Dems would win? The Democratic campaign of 2024 will be remembered as the stupidest in world history

I spent years of my life writing on the real Enlightenment and then these “dark enlightenment” doofuses show up and get everything wrong, and they’re everywhere I hate them so much
Oh Jesus Christ
GPT is really Scarlet Plague / Earth Abides levels of creepy to me Except in those books the loss of humanity’s capacity for literacy and critical thought is occasioned by an apocalyptic plague Whereas we’ve just decided we’re bored with those things and don’t want them anymore
I kind of want to see the national maritime museum and the chester beatty.
it wouldn't be like this if there were a live opposition party in the US, but there isn't

I would really like to know what's up with that 3x3 square of letters.

I’ve hated David Mamet consistently for over thirty years. I’m proud of my record
I don’t get why anyone really likes AI or uses it for learning. It’s so unreliable you have to spend just as much time verifying what it says as you would just looking it up or figuring it out I just don’t understand what everyone is fucking talking about
“India have lost their last 15 coin tosses in men’s international cricket.” That’s amazing
Not the best picture - I didn’t run out to get closer and get a better one - but hey look! Bears!
good thing PBS and NPR kept their funding by tracking steadily to the right for years and years
Going to sell my picture to people in the UK who need a photo of someone overage, with mouth closed and open DM me
I'm sure someone said that, anyway

nobody knows. I don't go near it. spooky
we have a grocery store parking lot with a light
Do they do that thing where they put out a bike sprayed white where a bicyclist was killed by a car?
oh, the one I've seen is the slender glass lizard. it looks a little like a garter snake or a ribbon snake, which all have nice longitudinal stripes
I like smiley snek
we have some of those. the species we have around here is the eastern glass lizard. it's a legless lizard. It can lose its tail (how does it know where to stop?) to confuse predators. I can't remember if I've seen one or not
Actually nobody knows which are subspecies and separate species of ring necked snake Could be a southern ring necked snake or a Mississippi ring necked snake or a northern ring necked snake or an intermediate form, or if these are all the same species
A southern ring-necked snake
Here is a snake friend from a couple years ago
I freed a tiny one a few years ago. My inlaws used glue traps for bugs - wish they wouldn't have - and one morning I found a juvenile snake caught in a trap in the garage. It took some doing and some dish soap to get it off without injuring it. Then it left
