This shit needs to be included in the headline. WTF

Screenshot from The Lone Conservative website, showing it's president, Dace Potas, who wrote the above USA TODAY opinion editorial about Democrat party strategy.

Google Photos AI spewing blood libel about my sweet baby boy

Running a search of my Google Photos for the "Leo fist bite" meme in case I already had it downloaded, resulting in an old photo of my cat Leo getting his head scratched.

Random lowbie posts leftistly about liberals all day. Random liberal he encounters:

@parsnip.bsky.social 15 minutes ago: "real weird account i have a few mutuals following so just thought i'd throw up a flag on it" above a quote-post of the account spitting at him for whining about conservatives as a liberal.

My response: "Policing followers has always been cringe. At least save it for a post or account that is actually worth mentioning."

His: "i'm not policing anything, don't be a weirdo"

I would kill for a mother that kind of crazy.

Tweet of mine from 3 hours ago: "Watched the Big Short with my mom and younger brother, both Libertarians.

Mom's conclusion, without a touch of humor, was that we need to vote for men who are too rich to be bought."

There's a reason we've been seeing so many of these "stories," and it's because they're not real.

Y'all wanna join a Book Club?

Poster on my breakroom fridge advertising a "Book Club" using a stack of books whose spines read the following, in 4 different fonts:

1. In thin white letters on bright yellow: "A women of strength and Dignity"
2. In bold, all-caps: ESTHER BY CHARLES SWINDOLL
3. In a typewriter style on a much larger book: "Purchase on Amazon"
4. May 27 at 6:00pm. "Questions call Laura" phone number (censored by me)

Location is at the very top, off-center. I censored it, but after trying to Google this South Lake Beach Pavilion (an outdoor book club!), I have no idea where they're sending people.

Glorious.

Screenshot of the Something Awful user fooquestionmark captioning the photo in question:

"I have a 5000 gallon above ground pool in my basement. It feels nice down there but the water is freezing. I have a tiny ass pump on it right now that kind of flows water but I'm wanting to heat the hole pool to a reasonable temperature.

For reference.

I want something cheap that won't melt the pool as it is rubber. I know I'm not the only person out there with a pool in their basement."

Tfw you're so obsessively compelled to use AI, you clean up after the president you claim to hate, interrupting your opponent when they're making a mistake.

Some liberal blue-check putz, @SkylineReport, replying to the original WH tweet with, "Fixed it. Put the champions front and center -congrats to Georgia Women's Tennis." The AI-generated photo looks fine, but it visually erases the overt arrogance and misogyny displayed in the original photo of Trump and the male team managers actually blocking some of the female players behind them.

Oh! It was Leo's 12th birthday (observed) yesterday.

Leo in an unused dish bin under my kitchen sink.

Leo watching me shame him for minding his own damn business (licking his belly with his legs splayed)

I haven't been here long, but this feels internally significant? Idk, Faine only has 97k followers, so maybe it's just... vibes.

Faine Greenwood replying to @why.bsky.team stating on March 30, "You're never getting an edit button btw," with, "... ... .unless someone uses Attie to vibe code one, as @knowtheory.net spoke into the world earlier today."

Three days later, Faine returns to the thread with, "i used Attie to vibe code an edit button and it's amazing," above a link that can go screw itself. @Why reposted.

This place is so gd annoying

A Bluesky conversation from 12 hours ago:

@ultralaser.bsky.social: "guardians volume 1 + infinity war - thanos is the biggest baddest bad who ever badded

guardians volume 2 + 3 - thanos died on the way back to his home planet"

Me: "I mean, yeah? He did what he intended, was gravely injured, and didn't appear to have any further will to live. What's wrong with that?"

Ultralaser: "sorry are you, defending thanos from criticism?"

The problem with scrolling Instagram instead of TikTok is that I invariably open Threads when it shows me half a photo, and then I inevitably see shit like this because I can't be bothered to make a good Following feed.

"Teagan Olivia Writes" posting at 9am, April 15, a screenshot from the New York Times that reads, "Vance Says the Pope Should Be More Careful When Talking About Theology."

Teagan's caption: "The White Witch says Aslan should be more careful when talking about the Deep Magic."

How do you even categorize this bullshit?

Ryan Grim quote-tweeting Marjorie Taylor-Greene 15 minutes ago with three exclamation points. Her tweet begins: "Ro [Khanna], I agree with you that we need a strong populist coalition of the right and left that can come together on the most important issues for the future generations of Americans."

Eric Andre meme: "Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?"

Speaking of things being spread around, my Instagram is way more shitty "meme" accounts today than it was yesterday. 😅

Screenshot of a shitty meme account on Instagram posting a screenshot of Grimm quote-tweeting "I would lose my mind here. Lol" over a screenshot of a post to r/NoStupidQuestions about numbers: "My son's third grade teacher taught my son that 1 divided by 0 is 0. I wrote her an email to tell her that it is not 0. She then doubled down and cc'ed the principal. The principal responded saying the teacher is correct... What do I do now?" -- The answer is, you cannot divide something by nothing, nor can you mathematically represent it, but my point in all of this is that none of this was worth anyone's time and we should all feel bad for having spent it.

It's less the fact that they were able to sell something like this for money, even after video games had been invented, and more the fact that they called them brain teasers. They're games! There's nothing puzzling about them! Except calling them puzzles!

A collection of sports-themed, dice-run, peg-board games, sold in a tin can by Cardinal Industries in 1993, called "Sport Teasers: 7 Different Brain Busters."
