Eh, in most applications I totally agree. AI should not be replacing people. But I’ve been hella more productive with my D&D homebrew game planning since AI tools starting becoming available. I can generate an idea based on a general concept I already have and generate character images. None of which is stuff I would…

We’ve used AI-driven facial animation proccessing before and I’ll admit it’s a task I’m happy to foist off on an AI. It’s not perfect, a human does still need to go in and clean things up, but it knocks a good ~70% of the tedium off which is fine by me.

I Miss Splinter would dismiss his own mother. Even when posters agree with him he somehow discerns nefarious intent and dismisses. I just wrote a long post advocating legalization of bills of attainder which is in perfect accord with Ms. Splinter’s thinking but I know he would dismiss it anyway. That’s just how he is.

Not sexist; for either gender, I just meant I found it depressing that even a bit of crazy can be overcome by commensurate levels of hot. (That’s just a matter of taste, I suppose; I like my guys low-drama at all costs). Then again, every time I watch any 80s Mel Gibson movie, I can’t help bewailing the loss of fine,…

I feel like Jim Caviezel occupies that slot now. I can’t help think what a shame that he’s so handsome, but so crazy.

Selena: “Do you have a breath mint? It feels like a goat shit in my mouth.”
Taylor: “Where the fuck would I keep them in this dress? Up my ass?”
Selena: “Is that a no?”
Taylor: “They’re totally up there, but won’t improve anyone’s breath now.”

I’ve been a bad, bad boy, Father...

“I can appreciate that fucking at work or filming a sex tape are fairly standard reasons to get fired from a job.”

Don’t choke on your pearl necklace.

This is the sort of practical, workable advice from commenters for grass touching normies that I missed for the few weeks Jezebel was offline.  It’s good to have your sage wisdom back dudebra.

You hear the news? Today Paste Magazine acquired Jezebel and Splinter. The Paste editor-in-chief says he intends to relaunch them both. Let us hope the Paste staff understands that the TomatoFace brand was once a vibrant part of the Splinter/Jezebel identity and fosters a welcoming environment for a renaissance of trad…

Germain covering Filoni gives me strong “kid telling his parents stories about the cool kid in his class” vibes

Because those announcements of more layoffs and such made the shareprice jump 22% today. 

I was told who was TomatoFace after figuring it out years ago but was sworn to silence.

Yeah the timing was hilarious. I wrote my first TomatoFace plagiarism thread in many months and the site closed the next day.

Glad someone else remembered Go On - definitely my favorite series of his.

I watched The Whole Nine Yards with Willis recently and man, could Perry hold his own. He had the perfect fish out of water interactions with Bruce and Michael Clark Duncan and his affable natural charm was believable in the budding romance with Henstridge.

I used to watch it , as I was roughly the same age as the characters.  The early seasons were pretty good, then they all started getting involved with each other and it went downhill.

Ted Bundy was extremely popular with women. Hundreds of them sent him love letters during his trial. He got married and conceived a child on death row. His crimes were bad enough without creating an objectively manufactured narrative based on one’s own contemporary sensibilities, no matter how cathartic it may feel…

Pediatric sex changes is a uniquely awful idea that will soon be a source of tremendous shame for 95% of the people who condoned it. I regret not getting in on the ground floor. It was only after I wrote some critical posts that I realized the pro position would be a lot more fun. But it’s a little late now.
