I like giant robots, comics, anime/manga, sci-fi, horror, action figures, model kits, roleplaying games, etymology, angelology, social justice, liberal/progressive politics, animals (cats rule), and ice cream.
pretty soon phone cameras will—by default—be set to not take photos, but use what they see through the lenses as AI prompts. Imagine: instead of real photos of your real friends and families, your photo gallery will be full of enhanced approximations of them!
Sigh… sadly, I find this believable.

I named my fists “Peanut Butter”and “Jelly” because when they come out, IT’S TIME
I named my fists Bunny and Tigra because they like the boom
I named my fists the Dorsey Brothers because they can play you the lullaby of broadway.
It was that or a hall & oates joke about private eyes, but I couldn't go for that.

Start reading this thread for the dumbfounding facts, stay for the amusing wordcraft. Great stuff!
I have been doing entirely too much earnest posting about deep things recently, I need to do a proper thread about hippo testicles or something just to keep myself sane.
Oh by the way hippos have migratory testicles.

Today is, by all means, Yoshiyuki Tomino's birthday! Without the tour de force that Tomino is, we wouldn't have many aspects of SF & Mecha, including Mobile Suit Gundam, Xabungle, L-Gaim, King Gainer, Daitarn 3, Zambot 3, Brain Powerd, Ideon & Dunbine. Happy 84th Birthday 🎉
