A little older, but less than 1 century for sure.

This is Amber, my parents' sassy 10-year-old. She isn't curling her lip, it's just stuck in "sneer" mode, which compliments her personality perfectly 😁 #caturday
A tan and white cat, looking at the camera with a permanent "sneer" on her face. She is cute

Always a little bit of horror, but some upbeat stuff as well lately.

7 minutes a day is all it takes for you to achieve that sleek, slippery lion's physique...
An ad that says "7-minute Workout Challenge". It has different challenges each represented by a humanoid animal. The one called "lion" has a picture of a dolphin-headed man.

Interesting article, but the last 3 paragraphs are troubling. They seem to suggest a need to educate people about AI while maintaining just enough "magical wonder" (ignorance) to keep them buying more AI-infused products.
These insights pose a challenge for policymakers and educators. Efforts to boost AI literacy might unintentionally dampen people’s enthusiasm for using AI by making it seem less magical. This creates a tricky balance between helping people understand AI and keeping them open to its adoption.

Came across this nugget of #benegesserit #wisdom while reading Children of #Dune this morning:
A snapshot of a page from Children of Dune that reads: "A large populace held in check by a small but powerful force is quite a common situation in our universe. And we know the major conditions wherein this large populace may turn upon its keepers- "One: When they find a leader. This is the most volatile tile threat to the powerful; they must retain control of leaders. "Two: When the populace recognizes its chains. Keep the populace blind and unquestioning. "Three: When the populace perceives a hope of escape from bondage. They must never even believe that escape is possible!"

"Hey Gloria, I just want to apologize for how unflattering the 'I Have No Soul' filter we applied to your portrait makes you look..."

If you can view 7.5 years of the joy and privilege of playing a musical instrument as a "waste of time", I'm not sure this video will help you find what you're missing in your life. #wasteoftime #shortcuts #missingthepoint
A screenshot of a YouTube video entitled "How to Teach Yourself Guitar in 2024 (Save YEARS of WASTED TIME)". The image is of a long haired teenager with a guitar on their lap, shrugging. The caption "7.5 years! Wasted..." Appears over their left shoulder.

Memory Chess: perfect for separated body parts, people with excess ear steam, and conjoined babies attached at the head!
A photo of a box for a game called "Memory Chess". It appears to come from Asia, and has amusing icons and Engrish on the box. A photo of the back of the box for "Memory Chess". It appears to come from Asia, and has amusing icons and Engrish on the box.
