I don’t think a screwdriver would illuminate much at all. You are a bit crazy.

Ah, the innocence of youth.
The same nonsense is invading all of my feeds as well. These things need to be required to label their AI usage so they can be filtered out.
Is Man… cala. Mancala, but where all the pieces are replaced with bits of TNT.
I enjoyed hearing about meme crossovers in a recurring Reply All segment where they would take a host who didn’t understand a complicated Tweet and break down all the pieces.
Here’s an excerpt that stuck with me:
PJ: Dog underscore rates. Ok. So, there is a–there is a Twitter account, uh, that has over 2 million followers.
ALEX BLUMBERG: Ok.
PJ: And it is devoted to rating peoples’ dogs,
ALEX BLUMBERG: Rating them.
PJ: Yeah. So like, scale of one to ten?
ALEX BLUMBERG: Ohhhh.
PJ: Except they always give them above 10. Like, every single time. Um, can I just show you the best moment in WeRateDogs™’ history? Where a guy got angry, that he thought the ratings system was skewed?
ALEX BLUMBERG: Uh, so, this guy Brant?
PJ: Yeah.
ALEX BLUMBERG: He was like, “@dog_rates You’re rating system sucks! Just change your name to cute dogs!” And then WeRateDogs™ wrote back: “Why are you so mad, Bront?” And then he said, “Well, you give every dog 11s and 12s, it doesn’t even make any sense!” (laughing) That’s a guy who is not in on the joke.
PJ: Yes.
ALEX BLUMBERG: (laughing) And then WeRateDogs™–and then WeRateDogs™ says, “They’re good dogs, Brent.” Brant: “It’s a cheap gimmick!” WeRateDogs™: “Well Brint, (laughing) the people love it and I’m doing it for them, not you.” Uh. Brent: “All I’m saying is you could have real legitimate ratings instead of every just saying (laughing) every dog is a 10, 11, or 12”
PJ: So like, that is basically–that is like a good encapsulation of what is good about this.
ALEX BLUMBERG: (laughing)
PJ: (laughing) Alex Blumberg is losing his mind.
ALEX BLUMBERG: Oh, “They’re good dogs, Brent” is really funny.
Here’s the episode: https://gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-all/o2ho9j
Miss that show.
Probably they find net zero (minus cost of hiring musicians) preferred over paying out a moderate income to actual artists. Capitalism at its finest.

Does it count if I give a proof reducing the entire universe down to a 2-dimensional construct?
Did some Googling. Apparently it’s nutritional supplements:
~240,000 micro & nanoplastic pieces in one liter of plastic-bottled water.
Mfw I read this while drinking a liter of plastic-bottled water: 😮💨
I feel so lucky with my cat. Would never dream of scratching me. Loves belly rubs. Most affectionate one in my life. If I ever pet him the wrong way he lets me know by giving me the gentlest “bite” basically just touching his teeth to my hand. I don’t deserve him.
I still haven’t had it yet, but everyone around me has multiple times. So, my current working theory is I am a fully asymptomatic one-man superspreader.
Check if it is Tuesday.
You’ll have to tip it first, seeing as it’s wider than it is tall.
We didn’t scratch the disc
It was always scratched, you can ask the cat
That would be Lyndon B. Johnson, who is said to have had a hell of a tramp stamp.
