Happy Labrador Day, I hope your day was filled with Canadians and dogs

(listens to earpiece)

Sorry, LABOR Day, I hope you passed a small human out of your body in a relatively non-punishing way

(listens to earpiece again)

It never ceases to amaze me the vitriol people will spew towards things they know absolutely nothing about.

The Canadian Bill to Make Everyone Doxx Themselves has reached the Senate Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs.

We spend a lot of time in Canada watching what crazy shit is going on is US politics, but sometimes don't pay enough attention to our own.

Take a look at what's on the table. There's some stuff here that should worry you.

This cloud looks like a white fluffy anal plug.

It's flared at the base

I love my mother.

But seriously, fuck mother's day.

Good commentary on the recent "AI"-related troubles of this year's Worldcon. It remains a general rule that you should not trust Large Language Models to produce accurate information. They're not designed to produce accurate information. They're designed to produce statistically probable sentences.

It's a start

Anyone who internalizes this line of bullshit will absolutely always be outflanked by people who know how to actually do things

I do understand people are concerned about the psychosocial aspects of verification, since I have my own thoughts about it. One thing I do find heartening is that Bluesky has been running verification via domain for two years now and no one's got notably weird or braggy about it. So we'll see!

The funny book man doesn't have a checkmark! He can't be trusted!

Reading Cheese Moon book right now. Loving it!

They said it would never happen.

Hundreds of Beavers hits $1,000,000 in worldwide Box Office.

Long live indie cinema! $150,000 budget and a dream.

And thank you to the fans who got us here.

Sorting through some of my migrated tweets, and found this.
We're probably better off without the mounties, but let the moose and goose army defend us.

When all the systems in place to help you do the right thing end up making the right thing impossible to do. 😠

A spread of books by John Scalzi, with Old Man’s War in the middle

John @scalzi.com’s Old Man's War was published 20 years ago, and helped him become one of the best-known writers working in the field. It was far from a certain trajectory.

Here’s my post about the book and the story behind it: transfer-orbit.ghost.io/john-scalzi-...

THE REPLICATORS ARE BLASTING BURRITOS ACROSS THE PROMENADE

WITH CHIPS AND SALSA

@support.bsky.team How do I submit a feature request?

I have a straw in a pouch of buttermilk ranch dressing like it's an unusually thick and savory Capri Sun.

Remembering that time in 2015 when I did this.

THE REPLICATORS ARE REPLICATING REPLICATORS THAT REPLICATE FAX MACHINES THAT ARE CRANKING OUT PICTURES OF REPLICATORS

// help Phoebe escape! they’re almost at their goal!

I keep forgetting I can mute words here. It really makes the whole platform so much friendlier.
