I'm told I'll seem more like a real person if I put something here
And that will make it less likely that I'll get blocked
But then I think about how strong the desire not to be perceived is
And I wonder why I'd want to avoid being blocked
I have a joke about Legion but I'm going to need to borrow your entire herd of pigs to tell it.

Don't worry, they'll be fine.
I have a joke about Job but it's long and sadistic.
I have a whale of a joke about Jonah

I've been operating under the assumption that the vast majority of the administration's actions were driven by looting, racism, and revenge... But I'm coming around to the idea that they thought it would be a lot easier to start a civil war.

This is my Usual Suspects moment where I look back at the partner at the law firm who hated reading email, hated reading case law, and was indispensable in the courtroom, and realizing that him not being a fluent reader would answer far more questions than it would raise.
I think more than anything else AI feels like a miracle to people with questionable literacy because it can read and write for you, and a lot of us who are highly literate underestimate how many of our society's leaders, esp in business, struggle with literacy.
It's pretty much mandatory at work that I appear to be using it, so I've doe a few functional things with it, and it's a moderate time-saver if used right. But nowhere near worth it's stock value, energy cost.

Then I realize there's a lot of people who simply can't write coherent paragraphs.

So this article is good, and it says something important, and I hope that people listen to this guy because a lot of people are not listening to the reality he describes. BUT ALSO What a fucking jackass. Just absolutely fuck this guy.

She was just, like, a normal person who was really smart and good at her job, and other people relied on her.

Positive representation of people who were smart but not superhuman smart was really rare, ok?

I truly don’t care what you eat or don’t eat on a holiday but making it part of your personal feeling of superiority is tiresome.

It will happen this way. A car will slow beside you, and a door will open, and someone you know, maybe even trust, will get out of the car. And he will smile, a becoming smile. But he will leave open the door of the car and offer to give you a lift, Charlie Brown.
You gotta keep his con even after you take his money. He can't know you took him, Charlie Brown.
If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule, Charlie Brown?

"Healthcare is the only industry that you're not rewarded for taking care of your responsibility."

Other dunks aside, that's just not true. If insurance policies that offer complete coverage with no deductible or copay exist, I've never seen one. Controlling your healthcare costs DOES reward you.

I love when cooking directions go out of their way to make you feel good about having a microwave.

Oven:
Preheat. Put on a baking sheet. Cover with foil. Bake 10 minutes.

Saoirse Ronan as James Bond would definitely get me to watch another Bond movie.

(I went from "excited to see the next Bond movie" to "I'll probably get around to it one day" after Tomorrow Never Dies, saw the rest of the Brosnan movies at some point, and haven't watched one since.)
KFC hired multiple actors to play “the Colonel” in ads. New Bond films ought to follow suit. Start obvious: Idris Elba or Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Will Poulter. Push the boat out a bit. Emma Thompson. Barrowman. Then unleash Alan Carr and Danny Trejo. Perhaps simultaneously. The Brothers Bond.
