Something I love that was especially precious pre-widespread internet adoption is moments where you got into some kind of important books/ movies/ music/ art in general that was otherwise unavailable from you. Like a friend who made you That One Mixtape, your random video rental one time, etc

Useful but misleading.

It takes additional effort, but you’re far more likely to find roast chicken bricked up behind walls.

Not nearly as many loose on the ground as this would imply.

Ryan North? But - he died... 30 years ago this very night!! @ryannorth.ca · 1d

In video games, you will often find a fully roasted chicken abandoned on the ground, and eating it extremely quickly makes you feel better. What's less known is that this is also true in real life

vash as a giant golden rabbit lying on his side comfortably and giving the smaller black rabbit, wolfwood, little kisses on the side of this head. Decorating the piece are long stems of geranium and Its round green leaves. The background bathed in matte black, with twinkles of green and lavender decorating the empty space.
painted in gouache, watercolor and color pencil.

Message repetition in any audience is a factor of its retention.

Same thoughts as this being age 32

A washed up astronaut in their early thirties with no other prospects in life. He’s holding a pike and has goggles over blonde hair. Brown pants tucked into leather shoes, a blue jacket over a white… crevatte?

Well a key policy goal of theirs is defunding Planned Parenthood. So yeah.

Hey all, I'm trying to get a baseline for how good people are at detecting whether fiction is AI-generated or human-written (most of the research on this is for nonfiction and my hypothesis is we're better with fiction).

If you have time, give it a try?

Gosh!

Is there anyone in the Seattle area who really wants to get into macro photography and has a Nikon? I'm giving up on heavy camera gear and I'm going to sell a ton of stuff including a barely used speedlight kit and commander, Laowa 100mm Macro, Nikkor 10-20mm, Manfrotto tripod with ball head...
