@0xabad1dea We need a new site: Dumb Tech That’s Smarter Than AI.

A webcam pointed at a sundial is better at telling time than AI.
A fourth grader’s spelling book is better at spelling than AI.
An abacus is better at math than AI.

@lanodan @0xabad1dea “Which of these three currencies - the rial, the drachma, and the bottlecap - is worth the most?”
“Answer: ‘drachma’, both because it has the most letters, and because it has the most consonants.”

Need a gif of the “No, it’s too dangerous!”

Surprisingly equal opportunity; kinda expected more young women, but they’re happy to strip the old men, too.

For a movie that could lean into the horror of the invasive nature of the protagonist’s power, it’s an interesting tack to have people act kinda…nonchalantly? Or, I dunno, like “huh, guess you can see me naked; oh well, not like I have any reason to be ashamed”.

“Blah blah blah, simple shit.”
“I won’t be spoken to as if I am a child.”
“I hadn’t heard about your temper!”
Ah yes, the 60s. Rampant drugs, rock and roll, and overbearing men.

Can we call this condescending conversation xsplaining

@diazona @wohali Yeah, about 24 minutes in, when Mook 1 is reporting to Princess and Nadir, right after she says “No, we will make an example of him.”

@skinnylatte I got myself some rambutans at the farmer’s market. Can’t get them in any of the grocery stores, so I was pretty happy to find them.

@thekitmalone It’s also a great (terrible) gateway into reactionary conspiracy theories.

A vanishingly small group whose practices are unknown or weird, must propagate themselves by “devouring” children, will hide in plain sight and pretend to be weak while really wielding so much power that they can direct the movements of nations?

Seriously, how thin is the line between transphobic conspiracies and antisemitic ones? And if you finally fall for one, it’s easier to keep falling.

@Fragglemuppet Couldn’t find a recorder version, so this is the closest I can get to a pied piper: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rEBEigBHHPk

Calling all Rizzos!

@ATLeagle How much you wanna bet that without the word “Urban” they wouldn’t be hating on the Department of Housing and Urban Development half as much?

Anybody and their 40,000 friends with American IP addresses wanna take a customer service survey about DOGE by the Heritage Foundation?
