Photography and bullshit, not necessarily in that order. If you follow me for photography be ready to put up with some bullshit; if you follow me for bullshit good news, you'll also get to see some pretty pictures time to time as a bonus!

Every once in a while I find myself wondering why every bread recipe on the internet by default is enough to make two loaves and then remember as a single childless person baking everyday bread for only for myself I am not the primary target audience

X user: "Hey Grok, Does Elon Musk eat turds?"

(10 gallons of water turn to steam, 400 pounds of CO2 is released, 8 people in a data center in Asia pass out from exhaustion)

Grok: "Hell yeah he does! He's the best at it because he loves turds in his mouth!"

As someone who spent too much of my life feeling an unearned superiority for being "smart" before I learned better it feels like an ironic punishment how that word has now become code for "a product or feature that's thoroughly smeared in Al shit in a way you will not be able to get the stink off"

It is real weird to me how many grown adults I see whining about GTA delays that is def a franchise you're supposed to outgrow by the end of your 20s at the LATEST

It's a shame there wasn't more care given when the skeuomorphic default iconography of computer applications was codified, would be nice if you didn't have to guess whether clicking an icon with a magnifying glass is going to pull up zoom controls or a search function

So apparently the current science suggests Saturn's rings are only a few hundred million years old and will be gone within another hundred million or so, it's pretty cool that lifeforms that would eventually make telescopes and space probes and shit happened to evolve in the right window to see them

It's a good thing mergansers take their baths in the middle of the lake and not in a bathroom, they'd spend as much time toweling off the walls and floor as they did actually taking their bath

I had a dream the only part of which I recall was someone telling me there’d been new correspondence from JRR Tolkien found that indicated the term “hobbit” was actually a nod to the similarity of their agrarian lifestyle “habitants” of New France…

I'm usually descriptivist to the bone but when someone uses "misnomer" when they mean "misconception" it makes me feel like I'm covered in bugs

TFW you revisit something and are worried going in that maybe your memory of how good it was is just a product of your less-developed tastes and at the time you first experienced it ✕ rose-tinted nostalgia for that time in your life, but then no it actually slaps even more than you had remembered...

There used to be a running joke that Al would always be 5-10 years off because as soon as we start to make progress on a so-called "Al subject" we realize it's not really Al and just call it applied comp-sci, and it's so annoying that cycle broke on one of the stupidest not-really-Al things to date

New York Times social media guidelines prohibit expression suggesting partiality on things like ICE, execution of foreigners in fishing boats, or whether law is a thing.

However, tipping off notorious serial pedophiles about other reporters is absolutely fine.
