She tale on my old til I time

“Worms are hermaphrodites. Each worm has both male and female organs. Worms mate by joining their clitella (swollen area near the head of a mature worm) and exchanging sperm. Then each worm forms an egg capsule in its clitellum.”

I have no joke here, I just like saying “clitella”

Acceptable methods include genealogical records, knowing the significance of "half an hour later in Newfoundland", knowing who Ernie Coombs was, and knowing what comes after "How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now."

How Elon Musk’s Sci-Fi Hyperloop Failed Before his misadventures in government efficiency, Musk promised to revolutionize commuting with a subway that would speed passengers between DC and Baltimore in a matter of minutes. The project was a...

A year long investigation into the Hyperloop found …

“The truth was far simpler, far dumber, and far more prescient: Musk and his lieutenants truly had no idea what they were doing.”

AI research:

Researcher: Claude, please eat ten hamburgers.

Claude: Done! I have eaten ten hamburgers. The first two were delicious, but after that I began to experience bloating and the meat sweats.

These are the 4 things AI can do well:

•Clean up your email inbox (badly)
•Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party
•Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself
•Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday

You can see why we need to base our economy around it

Is this or not is this, that is the question

These people should burn in hell, burn in hell, burn in hell, burn hell. Mass murderers rapists and thieves

I thought it was Sally that talked with the school

That’s real different from the book. Maybe I should watch the movie after all

never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.

A picture of PEW poll on global attitude survey, saying the % who rate the morality and ethics of people in their country as good vs bad, where the US has the worst rankings and Canada the best

Americans: we live in a fallen state—embroiled by sin, cheating, lying, and evil. You cannot trust anyone, not even those who claim to know you best

Canadians: I love my neighbors and my friends!

Tempest and Midsummer have the lyricism that goes straight to my heart. But I think the greatest of all is Lear.

I do not like this gen AI
I do not like what it implies
I do not want it in my art
I do not think it makes you smart
I do not want it in my games
I do not like its goals and aims
I do not want it in my books
I do not like the way it looks
I do not like it, I don't care
I do not want it anywhere

I feel Paul Simon does something similar albeit in high falsetto about 4am in “Still Crazy After All These Years”

They’re passing in between us

Fuck everything, we’re writing five timelines

1. Emigre from Poland: tailor.

2. Parents were emigrants from Romania: pattern cutter.

That terminal n on Steven stands for “nazi”

"Immanentize the Eschaton" is not a slogan for a valid system of government.

The only time I’ve encountered that is in a Jim Woodring comic

What’s the boiled owl reference in your amazing leather work?

I know I’ve read this scene in some contemporary sf. Was it Iain M.?
