💯 things AI replaces aren't worth doing in the first place
like people are feeding it bullet points to write an email, other side asks it to summarize into bullet points which aren't even the same bullet points thanks to errors and made up additions, email the goddamn bullet points wtf are we doing

by far the funniest use case for AI is “I use it for powerpoints because I hate making them and nobody looks at them” because it kinda sounds like the real workflow savings would be to stop making powerpoints

what is a skyscraper?
a skyscraper is a tall office building with a spire, which, being secular and godless, scrapes against the Lord's own firmament, making a horrible nails on chalkboard noise for a full year until a groove is carved into it

Reminder that JK Rowling sees any support of Harry Potter as an endorsement of her political beliefs, and she uses Harry Potter royalties to further her transphobic hate campaign. Your friends and family might not think you're a bigot for buying Harry Potter shit, but Rowling herself certainly will.

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.
Mark Zuckerberg’s gamble on the "Metaverse" has lost his company more than $77 billion.

Also I know exactly who needs to hear this but when Paul Zaloom was not playing Beakman he was making radical queer art in which he opposed the George W. Bush administration and Iraq War with puppets
I don't know who needs to hear this, but all four seasons of Beakman's World are on Tubi.
One of the best science shows for kids ever produced and one that definitely should be mentioned alongside Mr. Wizard, 3-2-1 Contact, and Bill Nye the Science Guy.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Working class people should be able to buy nice clothes that last. They should be able to go out to dinner with their loved ones. They should be able to have safe and reliable transportation. They should be able to buy their kids toys and have phones that work.
