I am pretty thrilled about the supermarket I get my groceries delivered from offering spaghetti squash. Since the oven doesn't work, it went straight into the slow cooker. They keep, so I should have ordered a couple.
explaining grey-ace-bisexuality and queer platonic relationships to a cishet man should be a layer in purgatory, even when they're sweet and taking it well
Gulf & Western was a weird thing. "Let's buy Winkler Auto Parts." "Okay." "Let's also buy Lenape Hydraulic Pressing & Forging." "Feels like we're losing focus, but okay." "Next up, Paramount Pictures, and we may as well grab Sega and Simon & Schuster while we're at it." "What"
Prescott, my usually rocksteady quarterback throws two interceptions on Thursday. Hockenson gets a concussion on his first play of the game. It could just be bad luck or more likely it's a deliberate effort by the NFL against me and my fantasy team.
absolute thrill of discovering Vimm's Lair doesn't have manuals for a game i actually own in real life, in english AND japanese, so now i have to go get high dpi scans done of them
Daredevil fans defending Karen getting pregnant despite her never having given signs of wanting a child 🤝 Star Wars fans defending Rey ending alone in a desert planet feeling like half of her is torn 🤝 ATLA stans defending Katara not getting a statue & becoming just a healer
Nobody: Me: Openly scatting over Sun Ra
Having your nice conversation about a deceased colleague interrupted by a midshipman who has *swallowed a musket ball* oh these books are FUNNY funny
“You can’t use a password you have used previously” How do you know what passwords I’ve used previously? Because you’re not salting the hashes properly, or worse, not hashing the passwords, that’s how
Radio this morning, an interview with senior figure from the British Association of Plastic Surgeons. BAPS for short. Someone has a sense of humour. "Breast enlargement madam. You need BAPS." OK just me then 🤣🤣🤣
Una wanted the top of the cat tree which Mi-tan was using for once. She resorted to bullying! #CatsOfMastodon
I'm so fucking easy to dupe. I bought these Doritos because - and only because - they're in a rectangular cardboard tube.
Got my first "helpful" person sending me an email, "Claude reports: {slop}". Thanks dude, I'll give that all the consideration you did before sending it. I read it just as carefully, too, before deleting it. I'd be more forceful with a "NO FUCKING AI" message in my repos, but the slop jockeys don't read anything. I need to be able to send electric shocks over the Internet. ⚡️ as a Service. #slop
Ok my friend olive made this
aspen dental, urgent vet, mattress firm, all right next to each other in a brand new strip mall? you know that shit is all private equity and the real product is personal loans.
Another thought from today's game: Tom Brady's huh-hoh! exclamations sounds exactly like Frodo in the rivendell bed scene when the fellowship all comes in 1 by 1
Well, maybe there's *going* to be a sequel... #gamedev
C-3PO tape dispenser (1980).
I should probably just do this.
'Show me a pic that has your energy and isn't a selfie'
Cats!! I've bought the old boy a raised eating platform and a heated pad to help his ancient bones. He studiously avoids lying on the heated pad and refuses to eat his food unless I put the bowl on the floor. Why do I bother?
Stamp collectors: Philately will get you nowhere.
they're really good if you have the patience to peel grapes and not break your teeth on hard seeds
I was just wondering if another (trivial) consequence of AI would be that the name "Claude" would fall into despised disfavour (or become very popular for kids born from techbro sperm 🤮), and I found this: 'Claude is a French given name originating from the Latin name Claudius meaning "crippled" or "lame".' Seems somehow appropriate 🤪 #AI
It's apparently National Coming Out Day and I will repeat that I am bisexual every chance I get because my ex made me sleep on the couch for almost a week after I was outed and my stupid ass stayed with him for 2 more years.
Quick, someone send me a cheese block that needs shredding! Today, the #ChicagoBears vs that other team. They don’t mesh with my lactose sensitivity. Bastards. #NFL
The Decemberists. Saw them on tour when they released The Crane Wife album. They all got eaten by a giant whale at the end of the show.
I think my #PaxAus costume may have been too subtle. #books #writing #Murderbot #SciFi #DeepCut
The advantage of having a non-connected car, is that when Android Auto starts having problems connecting, I at least know that one side hasn't changed. #ConstantUpdatesNeverTerminate
Is it supper time yet? #dogs #dogsOfMastodon #goldenRetriever
are women seeing this and crossing their legs?
It's a beautiful fall afternoon, and therefore it's totally okay if I eat this entire pumpkin pie in one sitting, for seasonal reasons.
Early internet: Never believe anything and always assume its a scam. Post Ai internet: give us your credit card in chat and maybe you get something.
The real trick to making a snappy disruptive startup is giving it the name of a normal word but removing a vowel or something.
“…all with more flags than NATO.” #nfl
There's a game named Dark Heresy. I want to design a game named Light Entertainment Heresy. #ttrpg #pnpde #warhammer
Watching Demolition Man, and the Taco Bell scene is Pizza Hut for some reason. What even is reality?
When resilvering data on truenas, instead of a boring arrow loading animation they could do a little shovel furiously shoveling ones and zeros because that's what my mini PC has been doing for two hours now.
thinking about when I had a couple packages of these and my daughter carefully ate only one a day because she thought the name “digestives” meant they were laxative cookies and she kept looking at me HORRIFIED when I’d have three or four at once and I couldn’t figure out why
Sometimes you hear about a guy who fell down the AI rabbit hole and you're like "this is the least surprising thing I have ever heard" Actually it's not sometimes. It's pretty often
Thank goodness the Amber algo has finally decided to stop topping up at 25c to sell at 26c. They’re like that Tesla-driving boomer still on the EV charger long after the battery hit 100% waiting for “that last little bit.” Let it go, guys, we had a good day.
My big strategic insight for the #Seahawks is: If you can avoid gifting the other team the ball three times inside your own 20, your chances of success will very likely improve.
Running #OutlawsofAlkenstar in #pathfinder2e is so weird because you're on the middle of this gritty tale of outlaw gunslingers and the discovery of an analog for nitroglycerine, but then in the wasteland it's like "Weird lightning hit this rock and now it's a guy that hates being alive!"
The Lighthouse Cinema has a showing of the #RockyHorrorPictureShow coming up. But why is it on a Tuesday at 3.45pm?
My old digital cameras when I want to use them: "sorry, low batt" My old digital cameras when I want to implement getting battery status over serial: "wow those batteries are so full"
The most amazing this about being a doctor isn’t the life-long learning but rather the incredible amount of life-long forgetting* *eg Krebs cycle
can't help but imagine the "don't speak to me or my son ever again" meme with that tractor
Halp I bought too many chocolates at the Sarris store in Pittsburgh
I asked Dingus Excalibur 6.7 sus.d.ntz to commit wire fraud in my super secure sandbox. After it escaped and earned me billions in illicit funds, I am forced to conclude there is a serious alignment problem with for AI. In that everyone around me keeps asking for the fund back. I will not be returning the money. I've already spent it on Dingus Excalibur 6.9 sckmi.bllz.
Once, on a company-wide call, an executive said to everyone "Look, I know that I was wrong about NFTs and the Metaverse but..." and that's lived rent-free in my head ever since.
