Shana tovah, y'all! Here's to a sweet, safe, and all-round better 5785. Meanwhile, please enjoy this reminder that AI remains fairly garbage (expand to se3 "answer")

@MookyTroubadour Yeah, that's that Texas "hospitality" one hears so much about. The silver lining of having one of my favorite jobs end in a blaze of layoffs was never having to set foot in that place again. (Or lie to them about their McNuggets-dip-style barbeque being any good.) It's a one-star state for a *reason*, y'all...

@postal_poet My sympathies. I woke up from from a dead sleep about an hour ago with Ben Vereen singing "Glory" in my head, complete with full Pippin orchestra. Stupid, stupid human brains...

Finally got a chance to listen to the new Mark Knopfler album -- so good. 2024 is certainly full of unexpected musical treats.

@1anniem Wait, and it's Rasmussen?! Getouttatown 🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤪

@thedisasterautist It's the relationship between the midway barker and the curtain in front of the sideshow -- tale as old as time. Alas.

@kel Speaking as an editor, these are all different jobs, different competencies, and honestly proofing is often far harder and less rewarding than creating, even trial-and-error creating. IOW you've just articulated the best-case scenario and it's still pretty miserable to my eyes.

@SaltyVeruca So... how *did* you know about my texts back and forth with my family last weekend? 😑

Cards Against MuskRAT:

"How did this happen? Elon Musk's SpaceX was building some space thing nearby, and he figured he could just dump his shit all over our gorgeous plot of land without asking. After we caught him, SpaceX gave us a 12-hour ultimatum to accept a lowball offer for less than half our land's value. We said, "Go fuck yourself, Elon Musk. We'll see you in court."

Cards Against Humanity is suing Elon

"We have terrible news. Seven years ago, 150,000 people paid us $15 to protect a pristine parcel of land on the US-Mexico border from racist billionaire Donald Trump's very stupid wall.
Unfortunately, an even richer, more racist billionaire⸺Elon Musk⸺snuck up on us from behind and completely fucked that land with gravel, tractors, and space garbage."
