Idk how to describe this but Matthew Morrison recently performed at Longwood Gardens in PA of all places and someone cut him singing the thong song with a mime performance/story he does of him catching his gf cheating on 9/11

there's this list of open source software that uses AI. and it was made with the purpose of recommending alternatives that don't use AI. and it's genuinely fucking hilarious to read because every single major piece of open source software is on the list and they still have the gall to recommend alternatives. take this list of social media software:

sorry everyone, I won't be using bluesky, or even mastodon. instead you can talk to me on snac2 and iceshrimp.net

molsno

you want people to use mercurial. fucking mercurial. instead of git. are you out of your fucking minds???

molsno

here's the full list if anyone is curious

My personal favorite bits

Don't code in Python and fuck you if you use Godot!! Really cool way to live.

doomsayersrequiem

Yeah I'm sorry if you use Python you're a 8ad person

Instead you should use poo8

Use poo8 to code

Important to not that most of this isn't software that *uses* or *has* AI, its software that doesn't prohibit ai in its license agreement

So, any software that affirms the first two essential freedoms of free open source software:

- The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose

- The freedom to study how the program works, and change it to make it do what you wish

Would be on this list purely because they don't have the legal right to stop you from adding ai to the software (or to remove it if its already there)

They are literally suggesting that we fight against the entire concept of social ownership and control of software in order to fight tech billionaires...

im in the bathroom listening to the following conversation between my roommate and my cat in the hallway outside trying to stifle my laughter.

roommate: is there a problem?

cat: RAH!

roommate: oh no, is the door shut? did charlie lock you out of the bathroom?

cat: mweh...

roommate: well you see, i could fix that problem for you—

cat: MYEH!

roommate: —but due to social rules that you probably couldn't understand even if i explained them,

cat: gWAAH... mow..

roommate: yeah, dude, i hear you, but it's not gonna happen.

cat: MRRRR..!

roommate: i know i have opposable thumbs, but my hands are tied, thumbs and all. i'm sorry, i wish it didn't have to be this way.

[sound of roommate's door closing, followed by desperate scrabbling claws on the bathroom door]

You guys are always like "being crushed by 10,000 tons of rock probably feels good as hell" or "being torn to pieces by hunting dogs would low key fix me" and I feel like those things would actually be unpleasant.

goetic-justice

How about "Drinking an ice cold strawberry milkshake probably feels good as hell". Do you guys like that one.

if youre in the US (especially the northeast + michigan) i would avoid bagged salads/greens and generally wash your produce very thoroughly unless you want the diarrhea parasite

klapollo

Michigan is experiencing its largest outbreak of a parasitic infection that causes severe diarrhea. Nearly 1,000 people have been diagnosed

this is not life-threatening, but also who wants weeks of diarrhea and a fucking parasite in them lol. if you suspect you've already had this and it's passed, i would see a doctor. you might need an antiparasitic anyway. if you're actively sick, see a doctor and they might be able to prescribe medication to help you get over it faster.

try to avoid eating raw vegetables, scrub fruit with a produce brush and rinse thoroughly with water. again, don't bother with premade greens or bagged salads. if you buy lettuce, remove the outer 2-3 layers of leaves.

there are UNVERIFIED rumors that the greens have been linked to a company that sources to taco bell. some locations have been actively pulling fresh ingredients like lettuce, avocado, and pico de gallo to mitigate the threat, so i would avoid any products from them just in case. considering how vast supply chains are, i'd be wary of any fast food greens in general for now.

Spike’s reaction to Buffy’s death.

casologist

James Marsters said: “I’ve never played a character for this long. l’m used to doing stage, where you live with a character for a maximum of about four months. After five years, there really is a space somewhere in my soul where Spike and Buffy really do live. There really is a Sunnydale inside me somewhere. So when Buffy really was dead and I really was Spike it wasn’t hard at all to break down. It was crushing. That’s the weird thing about acting, man. We’re not insane, but we’re paid to use our imaginations as fully as we can. So somewhere down inside my heart there really is a Spike and a Buffy and he’s very much hoping that he’ll get a little more time with Buffy.”
