anybody else seeing dan orban signs where it really doesn't seem like they're supposed to be? i've seen them on two different abandoned properties and a number of my neighbors have taken signs down after they were stapled to their fences

i love the part in game prep or writing where you go "how weird am i gonna get with this?" and the answer invariably comes back "un-fucking-speakably"

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

highland cattle have it figured out

Tom Cox @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social · 3d

Highland cattle are famous for their ability to "disco nap". Normally these brief, efficient sleeps will last between three and twenty minutes, deploying a variety of objects as pillows, including moorland boulders, cars or any particularly large dog or sheep who happens to be nearby.

also it seems like there's one of these articles every couple years, and every one of their headlines is dogshit

feral spooklist @tundrafuckery.bsky.social · 4d

I don't hate that there are articles talking about the environmental impact of HFCs and the ongoing project of switching inhalers away from them as a propellant. These are worthy goals! But it is absolutely berserk to frame this as somehow the fault of the people using the inhalers.

The people who are most vulnerable to the hard-to-breathe air that comes with climate change may inadvertently be adding to the problem, new research finds. https://cnn.it/4pWQMoh

Andrew Chien told Fortune he’s been a computer scientist for 40 years but we’re close to “some seminal moments for how we think about AI and its impact on society.”

This has to be the MOST cynical attempt to pretend individuals hold equal responsibility for climate change as corporations I've ever seen. I mean, who can say who's worse: tech billionaires draining earth's water and electricity for AI data centers or selfish people trying to breathe?

Coach Jerry (referee 🔵) @gopher33j.bsky.social · 4d

As somebody with asthma who uses inhalers - SHUT THE FUCK UP. THIS ARTICLE IS SHAMING PEOPLE WITH A CHRONIC CONDITION.

"Significantly" My ass. You know what else does? AI Data centers - corporations - cows - asphalt - THOUSANDS OF OTHERS THINGS THAT ARE NOT MEDICINE.

Fuck you - fuck you again.

Inhalers contribute significantly to global warming, study finds

Millions of Americans using inhalers for chronic lung diseases like asthma may be unknowingly contributing to global warming, according to new research.
