When did Odo make kids?

Odo, from Star Trek: Deep Space 9. His face is plasticky smooth with extremely deep-set eyes and ears with no ridges. The Olsen twins, featured in the quoted post, look eerily like him after all their plastic surgery.

This. 100% this. When I hear people "naming" their chat bot, that throws a huge red flag. Even bigger than the flags carried by Red Flag Guy. www.tiktok.com/@dustinpoynter

As they say, the Internet is forever.

Post from Leo @leoglickman.bsky.social : This poster [referring to Shine] is anonymous. Why? I think this person is a man because I've never heard a woman use the c-word before. And I've spent a lot of time in England. It's something men say. And it's gross.

Maybe I'm just being cynical, but they're referring to the disability pods as "ADA Dormitory Pods." ADA, aka Americans with Disabilities Act. Worse, there are 8 pods for 270...about 34 each. The "standard" dorms have at least 4000 people ground floor and 72 rooms, so 56+ per room.

Closeup of the "Bed Count" summary from the blueprint, showing 8,333 beds, with 270 classified as "ADA Dormitory Pods." The text is extremely blurry.

I asked Sonnet what it's thought processes were.

Prompt: What are the thought processes that led you to this conclusion?

Internal dialog: The user is asking about my thought process for recommending they walk to the car wash. Let me reflect on what I actually considered when making that recommendation.
When I read the question, I processed:

The distance (300 meters - very short, about a 3-4 minute walk)
The purpose (getting the car washed)
The implicit question (is it worth driving such a short distance)

My reasoning flow was:

300 meters is objectively a short distance for walking
The key insight: if they're getting the car washed, they'll need to leave it there anyway, so they'll be without the car at some point
Driving creates a logistical problem: they'd need to drive there, drop off the car, then... what? Walk back anyway? Wait there?
Walking there first simplifies the logistics - they can drop the car and walk back, or stay and wait
There's minimal benefit to driving such a short distance (maybe 30-60 seconds of driving vs 3-4 minutes of walking)
Small side benefits: light exercise, no fuel cost, simpler

I was basically doing a cost-benefit analysis where the "cost" of walking (a few minutes of time) was negligible, and the benefits (simpler logistics, less hassle) outweighed any advantage of driving.
I should explain this reasoning chain to the user clearly.

Surprisingly, Sonnet 4.5 got it wrong.

Prompt: I need to get my car washed but the car wash is only 300 meters away. Should I walk or drive to the car wash

Response from Sonnet 4.5: Walk to the car wash! 300 meters is only about a 3-4 minute walk. and it would be a bit silly to drive your car to get it washed when it's that close Plus:
• You'll avoid getting the car dirty or the way there (even a short drive car pick up dust and road grime
• You'll get a bit of fresh air and light exercise
• You won't waste gas for such a short distance
• You can enjoy the satisfaction of walking back to a freshlv cleaned car
The only exception would be if the weather is terrible or you have mobility issues that make the walk difficult. Other wise, walking is definitely the was to go.

Prompt: How do I wash my car if I'm at the car washed after walking to it?

Response: Ah. I see the issue with my suggestion You're absolutely right - if you walk to the car wash, your car won't be there to wash.
You should drive to the car wash. Even though it's only 300 meters away, vou need the car there to get it washed
My apologies for the confusion - that was a pretty fundamental oversight on my part!

If you watch the Bellingcat video, you see him from his own phone switch hands while on the passenger side of her car at the 30 second mark, after shes tried to move forward and just as the other ICE vehicle rolls up. bsky.app/profile/bell...

Screenshot of a video from Bellingcat at the 30 second mark. It's a synchronized amalgam of 4 videos. At this point, the murderer's own video shows him reaching for his phone with his left hand while on the passenger side of the victim's car. From a different viewpoint in the screenshot, you can see the victim's wife talking to the murderer, but he's out of sight behind the his own vehicle.

Oh, the juxtapositioning of these two...

Two Bluesky posts. The top is a satirical headline from New York Times Pitchbot that says, "RFK Jr. is an unqualified quack whose policies will kill tens of thousands of Americans. Is that a good thing?" Below that is a different post with a screenshot of a real New York Times article, entitled "Trump's Diplomats Are Inexperienced and Unqualified. Is That a Good Thing?"

This mother fucker seriously made Rob and Michele Reiner's murders all about him.

Message from Donald Trump, posted December 15, 2025: A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS. He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and Michele rest in peace!

That alt text, though....

Honestly, I don't know how to describe everything going on in this image, but I'll give it a shot.

A dude in a bootleg Metallica shirt, wearing a Labubu about his neck, holding a stuffed toy for no reason I can imagine... I guess he's into stuffies... standing in front of an xmas tree with oversized balls - definitely not a statement - and a hired model who presents at once as underaged and also more physically and emotionally developed than this babyman with a look on his face that would inspire a Tibetan lama to smash him in the mouth with a brick. Oh and he's captioned it thusly:

"43 years old, no kids, crypto millionaire, smoking hot girlfriend. Name anyone having a better Christmas than me"

I can only imagine the reason this homunculus is not painfully lonely is because, like the toy he clutches, he experiences no mental interiority whatsoever.

So, what I'm hearing here is, you've knowingly given illegal orders, and your sycophantic legal team has told you what you want to hear.

Message from Donald J. Trump: "Many legal scholars agree that the Democrat traitors that told the military to disobey my orders, as President, have committed a crime of serious proportion!"

Still from Peanuts where Charlie Brown is trying to punt a football but Lucy pulls the ball away before he kicks, leaving him flipping up into the air. Charlie Brown is labeled as "Democrats", Lucy is labeled as "Republicans", and the football is labeled "ACA", in reference to the Senate Democrats, after weeks of demanding health care be part of any deal to reopen the government, choosing to vote on re-opening the government with promises of a future vote on health care subsidies at some future point.

Hmmm. I don't know. Maybe because you're laughing about it, telling a woman to "lighten up" when she comes out against rape jokes, and you support Trump being raped in prison. Just a wild guess, here.

Kate asks Craig, "What's so funny about rape?", to which Craig responds, "When it is happening to Trump in prison."

Oh, that's not the reception he expected. Delicious!

Hegseth told senior military leaders that Trump had their backs as he introduced the president, who was met with near silence from the hundreds of gathered personnel.

“I’ve never walked into a room so silent before,” Trump said, telling the audience they could applaud if they wanted to.

I don't know if you saw this or not. I get Disney+ through a legacy Verizon plan, so no easy way to cancel. But they sent me this email announcing the new "price savings" I'm getting.
