Bing Image Creator's rendition of Zorro - one of 3 attempts that turned out tolerably well...
I have been reminded that jesters/tricksters were traditionally called fools...
So,
April @th3j35t3r Day? 🙂
Is it April? Yes.
Is there more than one Fool? Yes
Do Fools own the day? No - they are prank victims.
Therefore - I shall shun the apostrophe altogether.
Not April Fools' Day
Not April Fool's Day
Just April Fools Day.
Now isn't that easier?
Cautiously, I venture back onto social media at the twilight of April Fools Day...
The new Trivago guy is boring. They should just stick with Tim Williams.
I rec'd an industry email touting the extraordinary new capabilities of AI generator Stable Diffusion XL - so, I tried it...
Simple prompt: A mime pulling an invisible rope (piece of cake, right?)
Voila! The result...

Wow... wonder if I was ever exposed to this...
"When vintage Dial Soap debuted in the late forties, its use of hexachlorophene — a disinfectant they called AT-7 — was a big selling point.
It wasn’t until years later that people began to realize that the AT-7 was actually toxic, especially to babies. After numerous infant deaths, Dial removed the ingredient from their product in 1972."
I knew about the cookware and the raingear, but - dental floss??
"Forever Chemicals"
Why can't my smoke detector tell the difference between "toast" and "fire"? So I like charred bread. It apparently has a problem with that.
@ucantstop_me Good reminder. I've been wearing 2 masks since Covid Day One. It just makes me feel better, even if scientifically unproven.
A Halloween treat for me this week: due to the unavailability of a male actor I got to cold-read the vampire role in "Herr Von Klatka", an adaptation by Mary Benedict of The Mysterious Stranger (a19th century short story by an anonymous German author). I'm told the story pre-dates Dracula.
@Stace I also joined Twitter back then and LOVED the universal timeline before they strangled it.
@rpardee yes it does help but since I wipe cookies regularly it does not persist and is too troublesome to reset every login. thx
@kel I clear my cookies every day if not more often and that is not going to change. Somehow Twitter remembers my settings regardless so I hope countesocial will figure out a way to do that. We have to move away from T and it is going to be painful...
