As much Sloth as this is a US flag. I mean, in every telephoto “Bigfoot sighting” we’ve gotten in the last week he’s looked like warmed-over shit. There’s no need for an AI-invented “enhancement” creating elements out of whole cloth.
AI-generated image of Sloth from The Goonies
“What the hell happened to his forehead?” What the hell happened to the flag on the cap? What the hell happened to his differently-sized eyes? What the hell happened to a bit of shading becoming a linebacker neck? OP might as well be analyzing a crayon drawing over this AI-generated nonsense.
“Don’t wave with the hand! Don’t wave with that hand!!”
Did I say a single word about the original image?
This guy’s not even American! Look at the flag on his cap… all stripes! I wouldn’t be putting too much faith in an AI-invented “enhanced” image
Oooo… that’s like $29.95 a month!
“Foster engagement” by posting every three months appears to be the key
Everyone gets a telescope to watch
USA Today out there beating a dead barrel
It’s got what souls crave!
What’s up with all the yellow “Student Driver” tags on cars? Are they like “Baby on Board” or “Service Animal?” If they ARE legit, there’s a lot of students on the freeway getting shit instruction on left lane behavior
They got rid of their shitty new logo and will retain their shitty old logo! Yay?
I expect better handling by the USPS (United States Pesto Service)
…and this is how I did
This is a good writeup
You want some baffling editing, this made it out on network TV 11 hard cuts in 19 seconds
I’m the last person who’d shout “AI!” when happening across an em dash, but god I hope that’s the case here because if that’s a person trying to use them they’re an idiot
Movie theaters always had the full month, day, and year on their marquees. We had no smartphones, how would we know otherwise? It was a full time job keeping those things current.
A Spam shirt from 1984 that I could in theory still wear A shirt from a 1982 drama competition that I most definitely could not
It popped up on YouTube for me a couple months ago and I had no idea how the teens thought there’d be no fallout for their actions the next day Robots did them a favor, really
If you went back to tell me as a teen I’d one day live in a house powered by the sun I’d have said “Awesome! I would hope so!” If you went on to say the president would be a reality TV host with a mission to kill not only solar but all forms of renewable energy I’d have several follow-up questions.

Who was the one sotto voce prompting him with “Los Angeles” at the very end?

Does the “1” in “T1” have herpes?
Vance’s dream
If you have a link in a post it gets added as a separate element below, which is useful because the link text can then be removed from your post. BUT if something that looks like a link gets added (like seconds.at), the link element remains even if it gets broken up with a space before posting.
The same result as previous years’ walkouts
Gleefully, willingly complying in advance
But Andrew Yang was in on the deal! Andrew Yang!!!
Give the vote to dead people with the power of speech, I say
no cheating, post the last pic of your pet
The next project can be a trillion! I’m gonna say tamagotchi
It’s a good thing they didn’t change the name of their company to reflect their all-in-on-AI focus. That would have been embarrassing.

That’s like the recent Acosta “interview” where at the end he asked god to bless the chatbot
We’ve got one that could leap a five foot gate

I did hear they’re hard to find
I put that at the end of this one
Two weeks… DRINK!
Have Putin give him another soccer ball and *tell* him it’s a Nobel
“Say, let’s take a relaxed attitude toward work and watch the baseball match. The Nye Mets are my favorite squadron!”
Oh no… they put the wrong audio on that. Here’s the corrected version
Watching on mute and this looks like two middle managers at last call discussing hair dye strategies
Shit was wild back in 1999

Can never not watch this skit
I’ll give the production some leeway for having the two leads from the 1953 movie in a cameo
Thoughts and prayers to you and yours during this challenging time
Hi! As a California resident, what are my options when my senator ain’t doing shit? TIA

If anyone is curious about the current list of search terms being used by right wing activist organizations to harass university professors, here's a public records request I received today from Mike Howell of the Heritage Foundation. Not intimidating or meant to curtail by my speech at all, right?

Another entry for Trump Math™ I guess Bunch of thugs = one boy + one girl
“I believe in a mix of one thing, a second thing, and a third thing.” “I'm all about {1,2,3}.” “One [movie] that really resonates with me is ‘Remember the Titans.’ It's all {1,2,3}.” “A good hero embodies {1,2,3}.”
The very last line of the interview, where Acosta asks god to bless the chatbot, whose Q&A interaction has been indistinguishable from any generic ChatGPT “conversation”
GIFs you can hear
I just want to sit in a quiet corner and charge my devices while nursing a watered-down Coke Zero from a Freestyle machine with three-quarters of the flavorings empty
I look forward to your interview with a Furby on US trade policy
Legitimate theater time!
Shades of late-era Apartment 3-G
I haven’t been following it closely, but when did Gil Thorp go full-on cubist?
I used Illustrator for a college design class assignment in 1989. We’d essentially do a round table discussion in a studio to present these and other students accused me of cheating. The professor shut that down saying the computer was just another tool and this was the way things were heading.
Auto-captioning fail or ad copy fail? It *did* do proper capitalization
Because the President of the United States is a loon
Post a random picture or everything goes bad in August?
Here you go
I found this one just hanging out while going through paperwork at my parent’s house
I did the apps after moving to California, but of the only people I saw for any length of time, two were through work and two through friends (and one of those I married)
What did I even do in the morning during the Before Smartphone era? Did I quickly pee standing up? Stare vacantly at the mirror while brushing my teeth? I can’t even fathom it.
Stuck behind a low, wide, and weaving Aston Martin* on SB280 and I can tell you that money does NOT buy driving skill *I looked it up and it appears to have been an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, starting at $320K
