Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid
Three persons in inflatable frog costumes. One of them is holding a nicely painted sign with two little cartoon frogs holding hands, below the text "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

That's got to be the ultimate protest costume, especially if we can get 50 running at them.

Do I need this costume? Yes.
Will I buy this costume? Probably not.
An inflatable costume that looks like a clown walking on its hands.

I went nuts the other day wondering why an email I had just sent wasn't at the top of the list and discovered this "most relevant" nonsense.

Who is like "let me prioritize my work with the projects that annoyed me the most in the past, first"

All this does is fire up the Boomers with dumb catchphrases like "mansion boy" that will get them laughed out of a room full of real people the first time they try it out loud.

To be clear, I am definitely for it

This got lost enough that I, at least, didn't see it. Tr*mp sues Penguin Random House for $15 billion for publishing a book that cast him in a negative light. Going after comedians is indeed terrifying. Going after publishers is at least equally terrifying.

Google Photos reminded me of that one time Laura and I went to Miami and they were out of normal rentals so we got a convertible for the price of a compact

I thought I needed bigger pants because I've gained weight (finally!) but I bought new pants in my old "fat" size from the same company and they are TOO BIG so I dunno

I'm size eleventeen now, apparently

It can quote other human reviewers about what emotion this sound is supposed to be implying to humans.

The A.I. can tell you how many beats per minute and what key it's in and how many notes there are and the lyrics

BUT DOES IT FUCKING... SLAP?!?!

HOW WILL THE A.I. EVER KNOW?!?

It is the funniest thing to me that the real quandary A.I. writing will get itself in is that the robots have no way to review music or movies

The LLM can't actually review art

Super excited to be staging a pop-up sale at Two Tigers Coffee during the Clintonville Jamboree on Friday October 17, 2025 from 5 to 8pm!

It’ll be a table full of original art, the latest Nix publications, and discounted back issues for those of you who are new to Nix!

I have prayed on it and I now know the direction my life must take.

I will use the wooden art figure models my brother in law sent me to stage fucknasty stock photos for Pixabay
Two wooden art figure models, one with a Post-It Note that says "Gender" in cursive The other is on its knees with a Post-It Note that says "BOOBS" on the flat part of its torso, which is probably the back of it 🤷 These two genderless wooden dolls are doing The Wheelbarrow Fun times!

And let me highlight the DISCIPLINE at play here and across the country, too.

They are trying to goad protestors into lighting a Reichstag fire and those efforts are being met with suggestive hip thrusts from a giant inflatable frog.

This is movement not taking the bait.

She's his supporter and likes when the boats blow up tho
Headline: Venezuela's Maria Corina Machado once described Trump as a 'visionary.' Machado insisted to The Sunday Times that Trump was right to bomb the boat. "I totally support his strategy," Machado said. "I've said on behalf of the Venezuelan people that we are very grateful. I think it is the right thing to do. It's courageous. It's visionary."
