A surprising combination: frozen grapes and ice cream! It comes together in your mouth like a float. Add carbonated grapes for texture variation.

If we could reverse engineer the way aliens create crop circles, we could manufacture enormous woven mats at a phenomenal cost and energy savings compared to traditional methods. A desktop device could create a full set of dinnerware from a pile of straw, corn fibers, even synthetic materials. 🌎🛸🍽

I can't believe ChatGPT wasn't making this up. Tervis tumblers are sealed using a proprietary ultrasonic welding technology! The most futuristic shut, just sitting in your grandma's cupboard!

Biofeedback could be a great mechanism for boardgames. Imagine a game with only two possible player actions: raise your heartrate or lower it--"get heated" or "keep your cool." You can run in place, slap yourself, dunk your head in ice water--whatever works, hit the target heartrate to win the game.

In the future, tech bros are going to interact with people as if they're using ChatGPT. For example, "Please respond as an engineer and not as a customer service representative." A lot of those guys are into "neuro-linguistic programming," so they probably are "IRL Prompt Engineers" to some extent.

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

Why does spellchecker not work 9n words that have numbers 8n them? There are numbers on the keyboard, so, obviously,people are going to press them by accident. It's a huge design 9vers8ght.

You're rightfully ticked at your suddenly bullheaded nextdoor neighbor. But people in the Northwest cross-border bioregion of Cascadia have ties and common interest that transcend national politics, and are worthy of fighting to maintain, CDN's executive editor, Ron Judd, suggests in his column.

Special Agent Grant MacLaren on Elsbeth! It's a cult episode, too. I loved the one on Monk, so excited to see what they do with it.

Sam Harris supports JK Rowling and Jesse Singal. youtu.be/0oUMofqWUR4?... Among the New Athiests, I always had a soft spot for Sam Harris becuase he's a Buddhist and expresses himself well, but he's a cipher. I never knew if his "enlightened centrist" shtick was real or if he's as bad as Dawkins. 🙇‍♀️

People need to understand that they've always been coming for the pretty ones. It's not about banning Bluebeard from the restroom; it's about banning Hunter Schafer. It's about sending Nicole Maines to a men's prison. It's about intersex women, too, women who may have no idea about their genetics.

Nobody seems to be noting how Bannon retconned the Nazi salute into Trump's post-shooting moment. He's attempting to make it the Trump salute. youtu.be/Cxg3Ho4rgjg?...

I stopped at a red light on the way into work to lean out of the van and puke. Either I'm terribly sick and that caused what I mistook for anxiety swelling again or my anxiety made me physically ill. I don't know. I'm still vomiting, though, so probably I did catch something.

"Adults call themselves artists when they want to behave like children with impunity." --Brad Bakshi That's me, actually. I'm not ashamed to admit it; I like playing around and making stuff just because it's fun.

I'm watching this dumb show, and I skipped the last one because I hate Holodeck episodes, but then the next one opens with the female lead saying she's pregnant. What?! Did they have sex? Now I have to watch that last episode. This kind of reaction is so girly; I can't believe myself sometimes.

Eggs Benedict Wong: eggs poached with blood orange vinegar, which also flavors the rice; jasmine rice; spinach salad with blood orange vinegar and oil; achiote Hollandaise; cilantro. This has the same flavors as my tilapia entree, only rearranged for brunch. I'll probably use sushi rice next time.👩‍🍳

The Silicon Valley extremist plot to convert the US into a patchwork of citystates sure sounds like Communism to me. A board of directors is just a Soviet council. They're redistributing wealth and suppressing free thought, talking about sending people to work on farms?! Why did we fight a Cold War?
