When I die, don’t look for me in the sunsets. Look for me in the buildings that obviously used to be a Pizza Hut.

Stephen King unsure of writing future, says he’s 'off the warranty' (exclusive)

Stephen King's next two books will close out three of his popular series. After that? Maybe a break "while I'm still healthy," he tells USA TODAY.

Update: She had a birth defect on her paw pad, but it never bothered her. Last night it split. They were able to trim it (😫) down and we’ll see how it heals up the next 5 days or so before we know if she needs surgery. Poor girl is in pain, but doing such a great job. My poor sweet baby J 😭

Someone, please, end my suffering. OUR suffering, because now you've seen it.

What are we doing here? How late stage is this capitalism?

Last June, more than 5 million Americans joined #NoKings rallies across the country, protesting President Trump's authoritarianism. And this Saturday, with your help, it's going to be even bigger and better.

Today on the 44th anniversary of the original release date we’re going to see Evil Dead with a live orchestra playing the score! I’m VERY excited! (Also, if you’re ever looking for a fun read- Bruce’s 2 part autobiography is a gem)

Woke up with David Gray’s Babylon in my head. It always reminds me of a very specific fall. I’d just transferred to UNO and this was the look. Just missing the myriad of parking tickets.

first paragraph is more disturbing than the porn stuff. if you rely on the plagiarism machine for anything, YOU have mental health problems 🫵🏼🤡

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

I’ve been looking for the perfect vintage curtain valance for weeks. I just found and bought one from Urban Outfitters of all places. I’ve never shopped there, but super happy to have found exactly what I wanted without having to make it myself!
