Good for this kid! Way to be a home grown dumbass. I hope they get extra credit for trying.

From the NY Magazine interview with the creator www.nytimes.com/2026/05/31/m... The interview is really good and notes that the Insta usually only has <25 interactions. Hardly a firestorm. Up to you if you think Eline is a good actor. (I do not.)

Also, silhouette! GUYS! This is edges.

Image from an article on AI. One silhouette is clearly a man flying. The other is a blob.

The image with the details. You can see they are both superman, even though one, made by AI, has the worst silhouette you've ever seen.

Quote from the article.

BETTING ON A WILDFIRE’S OUTCOME isn’t just limited to general prediction market platforms anymore. This year, ahead of what’s likely to be a busy fire season in the West, a new prediction market specifically focused on California fires was launched. Called “Wyldfyre,” it bears the tagline: “You can’t predict wildfire. But you can trade on it.” High Country News was unable to determine the platform’s owner or the owner of its website’s IP address; the website is opaque, with no contact information listed.

Currently, Wyldfyre users can only simulate trading, but according to the site, the ability to bet with real money is “coming soon.” The platform purports to be the first prediction market of its kind, pricing county and city wildfire risk in real time. “California burns. Every year. And it’s getting worse. The question isn’t if — it’s where and when,” the site reads. It includes hotspot data from NASA and National Interagency Fire Center fire perimeters to help gamblers make predictions.

Proponents of prediction markets say the platforms generate useful information through crowdsourcing. Wyldfyre frames its platform as providing a public good. “Wyldfyre turns collective intelligence into better wildfire forecasting — one trade at a time,” the site reads.

brutal!

I've been playing Anthropeum with friends, very fun, do recommend. But check out today's horny shield, hahaha.

Steel shield with gold and silver inlay. The first border is rope, second border is faux nail heads, third border is phallic fruit with a astral inlay themed border. The battle is of men on horse back but the men all have arched backs and their buns hanging out.

Did I ever post this cover @vdelandro.bsky.social and I did for issue 6 of Mister Terrific? I'm so slow to post this stuff! Ends up it came out in January of this year!

But you should watch Gintama. Every episode about making comics is my favorite. Except for all the episodes about enjoying comics, which are also my favorite.

This is the Dunkin Shadow Glitch Corner.

William H. Grey III 30th Street Station in Philadelphia beautifully refinished coffer ceilings, federalist style dental work, beautiful chandeliers, and one corner that looks like a shadow glitch that they couldn't clean because they couldn't close the dunkin.

Bitter Rice (1948) was such an incredible movie. But I have become deeply concerned with that a lot of people are watching movies like this:

angryangryhippy posts: This is the biggest reason I hate 1st person. If I'm reading a book and the protagonist is talking about some "I" while doing the most mind-numbing bullshit, I'm tossing the book in the trash. Because I would never make *that* decision.

Shawnna replies: OMG thank you, there's nothing more annoying than first person and it's a terrible character. "I" did not arrive at the frat party wearing no panties, THAT barnyard animal did and she's making a mess on all the furniture *closes book*.

Because people are presumably awake now I'm going to post the essay. Dave Hickey, rise from the grave and sue me if you care. Heirs don't count.

yeah I spin my tablet & my image. But like to hold a brush in these positions and the stupid stylus wont accommodate me!!

IDK! If pigs can fly what are airplanes for? If money grows on tree what are jobs for? If whiskey runs the river in big rock candy mountain what are liquor stores for?

whoa yeah I really want to be Wulfenite, forbidden macaroni.

These are different tofu skins. These are really good too, but they are only used in soups/hot pot I think. These are so good if you have a rip roaring spicy hot pot & a death wish.

Package of fried soybean skins. They are rolls of fried skin.

At the risk of making a food I love expensive, I would like you all to learn about tofu skins. They can be braised, stuffed, added to stews or stir fry. They are really delicious and probably high in protein. But I like to cook them up with some greens & dump broth or oyster sauce on em. Easy.

This is a really beautiful one in isolation. But check out what happens when you put it next to a very pink undertone!

blob of skintone with black hair added, skintone 01/30/42/0 next to a skintone blob of 0/35/8/0 with red hair added. Contextually this look like stereotypes.

Marissa Louise@marissadraws· Apr 9

Here is a thing to think about when making skin tones: The first tone is very acceptable in isolation. 16C/29M/35Y/0K But next to saturated skin tones like 0/27/25/0 or 0/27/16/0 or even next to pure black it can look very ashy.

last thing before I log off (hopefully log off for a week or forever). What the fuck are we doing here? 5 stars? $799? No one has purchased this hideous thing for that money. The internet is just 100% lies now.

coat rack on wayfairer. Ugly, 2x2 with cheap stain and a few c-hooks bolted on. Priced at 799 and "reduced" to 320. Has 4.7 star rating.

That's just what I was calling it because we didn't have the name at the lecture. The curator thought it correlated to the death of DQ because the text of the death transferred onto the image. I have found the actual title: Salvador Dali - The Atomic Era

Illustration by Dali of Don Quixote for the 300th anniversary. The Spanish landscape is in the background, the leitmotif of action painted X representing DQs imagination is between DQ & a cloud which evokes a nuclear bomb, a rising storm & a giant. DQ's shild is a bomb, his lance is a laser & moth. A new man springs from his head & he has a the wings of butterflies making up his form.

I mean this should definitely collapse further, but I think the money laundering/politician bribing/human trafficking/gambling market is rather large. Fest your eyes & relish.
