A screenshot of a tweet by a user called "Lily, the neighborhood pest..." that says: "one time i referenced a meme to this guy i was dating and he had never heard of it so i showed him the meme and his response was ”so im just supposed to memorize all your little pictures in order to have a conversation with you?” and not a DAY goes by,"
A series of panels showing a small girl wearing an apron. In the first one she says “I have just one line in the school play.” The next several panels show her practicing her line, “my lady, tea is served.” In the final panel she marched on stage and confidently delivers the line “they pay me in woims.”

An account with a blacked out username replies to me saying "Why? Really?" I respond with "If you click the link in the post you just replied to, you will find the answer to your questions." The person then responds "It was rhetorical... Why would women even bother?" I reply "The answer to that question is also in the story :)" This person replies "You missed it! Take care Trumper!"

Two Bsky posts, one by @why.bsky.team which says "Until December of last year I was using LLMs as fancy autocomplete for coding. It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff. In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing. Fast" The other by Paul Frazee (CTO of Bsky) which says: "A year ago, I thought LLMs were kind of neat but not that useful. I saw the code autocomplete and thought, meh. Last summer just flipped. I never ever thought I would see automated code generation like we see now. I know there’s baggage but you need to know the coders are being real about this"

A still from a cartoon where Spongebob (a friendly yellow sponge with big eyes wearing a red tie and kakhis) is sitting in a chair, smiling, but overlayed on top of that is a ghostly image of him screaming with big bloodshot eyes.
A screenshot of text that says: "One thing about being Mexican American is that we exist in a constant state of transformative wonder. We like to break shit (in a loving way), take it apart, reinvent and remix, gather the pieces, consume, celebrate, repeat. The art of making a piñata is, in itself, a delicate craft of precision, assemblage, flamboyant imagination, and taking a swing at what’s directly in front of you. There’s a kind of boldness, if not aggressive “watch me do this” attitude to it all. That’s just how it goes when you’re a California-raised Chicanx."

Me standing behind a huge monstera that is bigger than me

A comment that says "At the provided link there is a photo of “Reo (now Rose) Eveleth” — he looks unmistakably like a male. No surprise there. Another pushy ex-man."
A screenshot that says "Gosh I am an inveterate link clicker. Rose Eveleth produced a podcast called Tested, A Surprising History of Women’s Sports, for CBC and NPR. Indeed, most people who know the history of women’s sports would be surprised by what Eveleth wrote. Eveleth seems to have an extremely casual relationship with facts, more of an internal sense of her own truth, up to and including her name. At the link above to the Tested website, Eveleth uses the unusual last will and testament construction “I (Rose Eveleth) have been following this story for ten years.” Naturally, I clicked on that Rose Eveleth link and was directed to a bio page for someone named Reo Eveleth. Rose, Reo, I toggled back and forth thinking it was pretty egregious for a writer to misspell her own name. But now I realize a name is one of those progressive fluid truths, like the definition of woman. Still, if a writer can’t be clear and consistent with her name, it makes you wonder about the other surprising “facts” she’s uncovering."

A screenshot that says: "What if AI could revolutionize connecting, dating, and building intimacy? A recent survey revealed that 8 in 10 men (81%) would consider marrying an AI girlfriend if legal frameworks allowed it, and 3 in 4 participants would create an AI twin of their current partner - but a more "polished" version, sparking new conversations about the future of relationships."
