i found the only reason I'll ever run a long distance
Sure, vomiting is allowed (but discouraged), according to the rules of this ultramarathon. Each participant must run to nine Taco Bells scattered across Virginia and D.C. At each location, they must purchase and eat an item off the menu. Drinks don’t count.
At this ultramarathon, runners tackle 32 miles and eat at nine Taco Bells
Puking is discouraged, but allowed. Pepto-Bismol is not.

I remember Dawning Realization Month for the NFT people too. Think this is going to take much longer because of how wrapped up the whole economy is in this, but it really feels like it's happening.
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

There is a direct correlation between how fake your job is and how much value you see in AI
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

Having seen this, I’ve got to say, the KPop Demon Hunter fans need to re-discover Final Fantasy X-2, where you play a girl band who changes fighting classes by changing dresses and has no less than two concerts on the way to saving the world from a giant weapon.
Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

i was pretty annoyed the play still isn't easily accessible while i was watching last night's episodes
Season 5 makes a lot more sense if you've seen the prequel Stranger Things: The First Shadow

new stranger things is better than big chunks of season 4 but its hard to be as excited about it as i used to be with the huge gap between seasons, the need for it to be BIG BIG BIG, the awful release schedule, etc. I'm enjoying it but I'm also annoyed by just about everything around it.

consider though: it is great
Ewoks: The Battle for Endor first aired on ABC 40 years ago. It isn't great, but it's had a small lasting impact, most recently on The Mandalorian.
