Joke of the day from Moscow: Russia tried to unveil its first humanoid AI robot, Aidol. Key word: tried. The robot collapsed during its debut, forcing organizers to cut the presentation short. Their rushed attempt to lift the prop only made things worse.

Sometimes I’ll see an actor who was on G.L.O.W. in something else and be reminded of how absolutely fucking outrageous it is that they didn’t give that show its final season.

One of the things Hocus Pocus nails is the thrill a teenage boy feels when he gets to fuck around with a lighter.

Good fucking job to the dipshits running the country, you have radicalized my 8 year old to a point that this sign is the tamed down version we had to compromise on.

Excellent piece of writing that echoes my own feelings about 2025 Magic The Gathering.
This week's #mtgcube piece has been brewing for awhile. Sometimes, you have to show the cards who shuffles whom.

Universes Beyond and the Meaning of Life — Lucky Paper
The typical debate about Universes Beyond's effects on Magic is framed as a matter of market value. But once we start weighing the success of these co-branded products, we've already lost a rigged gam...

Very sad to learn that Kimberly Hébert Gregory, the voice of Craig of the Creek’s mom Nicole, has passed. She brought so much heart and comedy to our little show. She will be missed deeply. My creative partner Ben Levin posted a wonderful tribute here: www.instagram.com/p/DPbxXqREUk...

My almost lifelong interest in Magic The Gathering just plummeting off a cliff with these 2026 sets. Woof. Getting a return to Lorwyn turned out to be a real curling of the monkey’s paw.

Hey y'all. I will not be returning to SNL this season. A couple of factors (wasn't on the show last season, have never even auditioned or submitted a writing sample) have made it impossible. Sorry to all the fans!

Hope everyone in the industry learns some lessons from K-Pop Demon Hunters blowing the hell up! Saw it in a sold out theater today, audience was INTO IT.

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.
![[quoting a tweet by fractalcounty that reads, “today I learned that there are actual people irl who get genuinely upset if they catch you using chatgpt. like they view it as a serious moral failing in certain circles”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreihjvnz2ttxl7z4a2b3a4kylubobgvqxmjhwz6yuetuztzoc4g2s4y@jpeg)

It was all for nothing. All the canned projects, people laid off, countless hours of work and films and shows thrown away. And the end result was just "Yeah we're back to where we were before it began."

To wear one of those hats with the propellers on top, to me, is immature. Do not spin that shit at me, I will drop your ass. Truly childish behavior. In this day of age
