I guess someone asked a LLM bot to “simplify the text, remove unnecessary words, make it concise” and somehow it arrived at this. Or maybe Nature’s new audience is cavemen?
i bet this shit sounds magical if you're fucking stupid
The end result is just this, for every text, forever.
(Yes, this is a real abstract from Nature magazine, I think it’s still up online).
Was the goal of the article to explain something in the language of a cartoon cave man? How could anyone possibly read that and think “ah yes, this is surely the final draft and worthy of submission to print”?
I didn’t know Microslop was a thing until I saw headlines about Microsoft trying to ban Microslop on its Discord. Now I shall say Microslop a lot. That’s how it works.
It’s good when Microsoft, a company that likes genocide and environmental destruction, doesn’t like things.
Toad is buried under the covers in bed. From "Spring" In *Frog and Toad Are Friends*
Toad went back into the house. He got into bed and pulled the covers over his head again.
“The workers in Kenya say that it feels uncomfortable to go to work. They tell us about deeply private video clips, which appear to come straight out of Western homes, from people who use the glasses in their everyday lives.
Several describe video material showing bathroom visits, sex…”

I also assume most DIY network wouldn’t make a Rorschach test a mandatory part of the process of getting the HRT. Nor would they judge your fashion sense as a metric of whether you can access it or not. Sweden’s system for this sucks lmao
Caves of Qud!
You have discovered a planet. It is so far away. There's a being there that's like a panther, with silver ribs. Can we go?
photo of a sketchbook page featuring some doodles of a more realistic nidoking. What this is not a photo of is that blokees nidoking figure who really thought this was about him. The ego on this guy is out of control.
Lil bro thought I was taking a photo of him 😂

An ink painting of a Vaporeon smiling happily at the camera. Many big morning glories are tangled on a vine around their tail. The inside of the morning glories mimic the spiky collar shape around Vaporeon's neck.
A vaporeon sitting in profile and smiling with a few morning glories around them, and the vine curling around their tail again. Do you think surf would be useful for gardening purposes? Vaporeon wants to find out.
Happy 30th birthday Pokemon! Here are some paintings of my all time favorite. My only objective every game is to locate my dog.
The entire millennial identity is being prepared and groomed for a version of the world that stopped existing by the time we reached it
we slammed into a horizon painted on a brick wall like fucking looney tunes
The company is like an evil vending machine, you put money in and it does what you want, unless somebody else puts more money in and tells it to stop.
For me, one of the coziest things you can put in a game is letting me clean up, secure and decorate a living space for my player character. Building a base, setting up camp, giving the player and myself a peaceful space in the midst of whatever chaos is going on. Safety vs danger is great!

Happy 30th Pokémon anniversary! Here’s my fav, Sandshrew!
Goddamn it, I grew up with this show! I learned English from this show! Rest in peace, Rob Grant.
So… any Tyrant Philosophers fans out there? I’m over the moon with these books and I can’t start a fandom on my own. I’m rereading the series now, just to prepare for book four, and City of Last Chances is so good!!!
Aha, så han är alltså ca 500 år efter med sin kunskap, känns tryggt att en sån person har en maktposition.
Han har bl a haft mask i hjärnan, haft diverse grova missbruk, levt av att äta roadkill etc, antar allt detta sabbat rösten på honom. Antar han blev hälsominister eftersom han verkar vara immun mot allt numera efter att ha levt som han gjort, eller nåt?
Tbh more sports should be performed in elaborate outfits, just look at the Nomad Games in Central Asia, those athletes are always wearing incredible outfits!
Thank you. I hate it when games do that thing because it makes my fairly benign, usually quiet tinnitus start up. I can’t imagine how bad it must be for people with worse tinnitus!
I would draw them once more years later, after some fears of becoming the "pinecrab guy"
Onfim’s drawing of himself on horseback as a warrior defeating an enemy.
Two of Onfim’s works. On the left is a copy of a passage from the Book of Psalms he did for schoolwork. On the right is an apparently autobiographical depiction of a monster labeled with “I am a wild beast.”
Some more spelling practice by Onfim with some human figures who have round heads and varying numbers of fingers on their big hands.
Onfim’s writing practice accompanied by 7 little people in his particular drawing style, who tend to have very big hands with many fingers.
Nice AI-image-generating tool, but it will never be as great an artist as Onfim, a child who lived in the Novgorod Republic in the mid-1200s and who scribbled these drawings and schoolwork writings on birch bark at the age of 6 or 7.
