Is this year the year I get a St Guinefort tattoo or is it another year of thinking about it and then getting too busy with work?

Every month our ABC runs these weird articles that suggest shithouse housing is our future, that we should expect less, not more than previous generations.

Yes to the critique. Of course. But aside from that, it has a very V/H/S aesthetic
1/ This advertisement is dangerous. ICE agents are shown in full paramilitary gear (helmets, rifles, tactical vests) despite ICE being a civil immigration enforcement agency, not a military force.

This is a super-huge issue in news writing, which almost always gets flagged as AI. News stories are formulaic by design and often have the same cadence and language.
Out of curiosity, I just ran a few paragraphs from The Butchering Art through an AI checker and it got flagged: 88% AI. This book was released in 2017, and AI machines were subsequently trained off it. How many writers are getting flagged for AI because of the literal theft of their work(s)? Insane.
OMG - f*ck AI for ruining the em-dash for writers. I use them all the time. Of course, what a shock that AI uses them since they were trained off my voice and other authors' voices.

The cybertruck lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, spinning its wheels trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.
joining the "cybertruck owners only" group on fb is one of the best decisions i've ever made. every so often when i'm scrolling through fb getting pissed off, i get to see a little treat like this

The judge should be sanctioned for this. Courts are for testimony of people with personal experience or expertise pertinent to the case.

Putting the tech aside, this was like allowing someone to read an essay that was fictively composed by the victim. That would never be allowed.
This year marked the first time the AI avatar of a victim—in this case, a dead man—has ever addressed a court, and it raises many questions about the use of this type of technology in future court proceedings.

that the Whos celebrate Christmas suggests some knowledge of Christ, but whether this is our anthropic Christ or a distinctive Who-Christ remains obscure; some have argued Christianity was introduced to them during their refuge with Horton, which of course turns us to the matter of Elephant Religion
