One time for work, I had to take a Robert McKee screenwriting seminar. One of the rules of screenwriting he laid out was that dreams can't provide new information that is also true. It's pretty useful to think of ChatGPT the same way.

I came out this morning and found this flyer on my Honda Odyssey. Just because I own a Honda doesn't mean I condone the man's actions or agree with all of his political beliefs, and I'm a little offended at the idea that I should be held responsible.

And there it is. Same holds for activists, writers, "free speech" orgs, arts institutions and everyone else who has been silent for 15 months.

the super bowl commercials and to a lesser extent, the game itself, always remind me that this country produces nothing of value and everyone in it is shit. although i could go for some nerds gummy clusters. that confection feels like a winning combination of two awesome tastes.

*Super Bow Ad* Kramer from Seinfeld: ahh! Jerry, this football game, it’s OUT OF CONTROL Bart Simpson: don’t have a cow man Kate Upton: I’ll have a cow John Cena dressed like a genie: you said it Voiceover: Raytheon defense systems, defending our shores now more than ever

for people interested in more about the Deepseek “panic”, I went into some personal thoughts on why it’s being treated as such a nuclear level threat by most VCs in the space I am not an LLM expert but I have used local open source models for a decade & have some thoughts on why it’s so funny

We're finally dismantling the federal government! Sure hope it doesn't serve essential functions that I've taken for granted my whole life

I got to be friends with David Lynch when we were both at Universal years ago. A very kind man, he was a fan of Bob's Big Boy. So was I. I'm going to miss him. R.I.P. David.

they say there's no ethical consumption under capitalism, but i do think there are a few exceptions to that. for instance, a best-in-class pickup that's won a j.d. power award for several years in a row. i would consider that ethical

Galen Buckwalter, 68, shared with me his harrowing tale of being forced to flee the Eaton fire alone on his wheelchair through dark streets and fierce winds, dodging debris as fire neared his home. “In emergencies, disabled people are the last to get services…We have no system. You’re on your own”

if i had a billion dollars and worldwide influence i would simply not debut my new character "Transphobic Lil Dicky" live on Joe Rogan's DMT Telethon

where does the new york times even find these people

An Alabama mom hit by the Bourbon Street attacker's truck then shot in the attack, who still has a bullet lodged in her foot, told a @nolanews.bsky.social reporter that the Amazon warehouse where she works denied her request for a leave of absence.

Wow, I didn’t know we had royalty on this web site

We may disagree on many things, but nevertheless I'd like to be the first to wish Donald Trump and family, and all of the nazis and fascists and demagogues he's bringing into power with him, as well as all the psychotic bastards who voted for him, a very Merry Christmas! 🎄❄️

My favorite baseball memory was when Bobby Valentine was managing (I think) the Rangers and he ran out of the dugout to yell at the ump, who yelled right back. And the broadcaster goes, "Well. Two Italians."

whoa kyle mooney just put up a new youtube video for the first time in 7 years. love this dude. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DILd...

they should make video games so that they listen through your mic for the sound of a beer opening and when it detects it your character in the game will also have a beer in their hand

AI is changing everything. In particular it’s putting a thing you don’t want to accidentally touch in all of your favorite apps

Everything I see from Threads is so amazing. A perfect 50/50 between random strangers telling you about their sick pet or bad marriage and brands grimly flirting with each other. Facebook is one of the coolest companies ever to exist. No one else could come up with this.

This must be what it was like to watch Gretzky in ‘81

happy belated 5-year anniversary to what is, for my money, the greatest political post of all time

I cannot stress what an incredible downgrade it is to go from living in Chicago to living in DC

@murderxbryan.bsky.social I have an idea for a type of Guy, I think it would be something like Charity Porn Guys, people who film themselves giving people things. This guy showed up on my YouTube and he is so bizarre. Maybe he’s just Mormon? youtu.be/MNRZecCGcyQ?...

man there's going to be a whole 5 year generation of tech with useless AI features built in that we'll just have to ignore for the next 10-15 like 3d tvs
