  1. 😱 Oh no, game devs are quaking in their boots because AI is coming for their jobs! Apparently, hitting “open to work” on LinkedIn is the new superpower. Maybe it's time to dust off those #resumes and start learning how to code AI, or at least how to pretend you can. 😂 #JobApocalypse #NotReally

  2. The Pussycat Dolls are reforming. Forget The Smiths reunion, David Gilmour and Roger Walters forgetting their differences or those Abba avatars becoming flesh but *this* is the one we have all been waiting for.

  3. Current status: Hurling extensive, creative strings of expletives at an app b/c its video tutorials don’t match its interface. Client deadline, etc.

    STOP YAPPING AND GET TO THE BLOODY DAMN POINT YOU GIT.

    Narrator: Dear reader, our heroine may be experiencing a deficit of patience at this point in our story. Deliveries of pie would be most appreciated, whether they be virtual or consumable.

    STOP NARRATING. CAN’T YOU SEE I’M TRYING TO GET SOMETHING DONE HERE

    Narrator: Dear reader, we find it necessary to retreat to less hazardous terrain at present. Please see previous request for pie. We now suspect our heroine is a descendant of dragons. And possibly raccoons.

  6. 🚀🎉 Behold the #groundbreaking innovation: a ForYou page, but for essays! 📚✨ Because clearly what the Internet was missing was yet another algorithm to tell us what to read, as if our attention spans needed more confusing. 🙄 #Revolutionary #NotReally

  7. I am a bit of connoisseur of crosswords in TV shows, and I particularly like the entries down the very edges of the grid here. #crosswords #notreally

  8. I want to put other textile workers and crafters in their place, so I'll be making all my zippers from scratch going forward. #Sewing #NotReally
  9. > The German prefix “eigen” roughly translates to “self” or “own”.
    (textbooks.math.gatech.edu/ila/)

    so can we translate "self own" to "eigeneigen" in German? :)

  10. Saw this on my AM gocomics.com run today, and it hits home. I have been staining my shirts for so long, my sister used to call me "Pig Pen" when we were growing up.

    Now, when a T-shirt has the usual stain on it (grease, oil, food etc), I just tell people that's my logo.

    (Fun fact: The gigantic quilt my sister just made me from all my old aviation t-shirts still has, um, my "logo" on several of the shirts.)

  11. Most of the roughage I get comes from the capsules around Tylenol pills.

    The rest comes from grinding pill bottle caps with my TEETH.

  12. A Braveheart reference was not what I expected from the Freakier Friday movie 🤣 🍿 …..it was really fun though!

  13. @shlee or maybe we just make everyone who still considers themselves an active fan write a Masters-level exegesis on their justification? #notreally

    Nah. Block that shit. Nobody needs to be exposed to it.

    Aside: My kid grew up on Rowling, and was a deep fan, knowing all the strange trivia. We shared a lot of good times centred on those works across books and film.

    She continues to struggle with the tension between something that meant so much to her and kids like her that felt like outcasts and the clear interpretation of Rowling’s anti trans behaviour that suggests she thought Potter was an antihero and the Ministry of Magic the righteous ones.

    I think much of the same tension exists for people who read Lovecraft and Gaiman, or watched Whedon’s shows, or listened to Kanye’s music before the mask was lifted. Do we take down Picasso from galleries because he was an absolute trash person?

    I can’t and won’t support those artists any more. But I struggle to condemn anyone who came to understand themselves in the context of that art before the artists were exposed.

    I can’t change anyone. They need to take their own journey. And they need empathy not scolding in order to take it.

    tl;dr of all that: block and ban hateful people and their art, but be kind and empathetic in helping others understand what harm those works can do.

  14. Ah, that's OK then. I can go out and buy a Tesla quite happily if I know that Musk is only going to be working as a Nazi one or two days a week.

    I'm sure that will fix everything.

  15. @LovesTha Don’t forget all the HTML you’ll have to manually write to fill markdown’s shortcomings. And CSS is so it’s friendly, you’ll have such a good time. #NotReally
