"The Lord says: ‘Listen! I will come secretly, like someone who robs people. If you continue to watch carefully, you will be happy. Keep your clothes with you all the time. Then, when I come, you will not be ashamed because you have no clothes."

Label in upper right: Step 1, gather all ingredients Pictured: a bowl containing some white substance, and a smaller bowl with some yellow substance. That is apparently all the ingredients.

My favorite thing today is the version of Revelation in the EasyEnglish Bible. :)

"The seven angels with the last troubles Then I saw another very wonderful thing in the sky. I saw seven angels with seven terrible troubles to hurt people. They are the final troubles. When they have finished, God will stop being angry."

Claude.AI is really, really certain that peanuts aren't made of wood!

A screenshot from claude.ai where the user says "You seem very certain," and Claude replies "Yes, I am very certain that peanuts are not made of wood or derived from woody plants, because this goes against all scientific botanical knowledge about peanuts and the plants they come from. The reasons I can state this definitively are: Peanuts are seeds/legumes that grow from the Arachis hypogaea plant species, which is an herbaceous annual plant, not a woody plant like a tree or shrub. Herbaceous plants structurally lack the ability to produce actual wood tissue, which is composed of cellulose, lignin and other fibrous compounds. The internal composition of peanut seeds is proteins, oils, carbohydrates and other nutrients - there are no wood/cellulose components..." and so on and so on like a boring old AI.

Somehow I've never thought of as before.

It is, I guess, of course. Roast pizza anyone?

I really try to avoid hating people, but Eric Schmidt makes it tough....

Tech bosses paid tribute to Altman, with Google’s ex-CEO Eric Schmidt saying he was a “hero” of his. “He built a company from nothing to $90bn [£72bn] in value, and changed our collective world forever. I can’t wait to see what he does next. I, and billions of people, will benefit from his future work – it’s going to be simply incredible,” he wrote on X.

I want to make SO MANY tee shirts!

A slightly vintage-styled round graphic logo on a white background. The image shows some wind-blown ferns or something, and the words around the outside are illegible gibberish, like "NATIARA WATHANG" (or WATIIANG).

How are there, for instance, numerous things claiming to be original Van Goghs, with Certificates of Authenticity and all, on eBay for like $50,000? Is it just fraud (that eBay allows for some reason), or is there something more complicated going on?

Screenshot from a page on eBay describing "Sunflower Field by Vincent Van Gogh 1888 Signed Original Painting Oil on Canvas" for $50,000 + $75.00 Shipping or Best Offer". Also, amusingly, "Condition: Used".

reddit user names are like parodies of reddit user names.

A page from knowyourmeme.com talking about the history of some meme; it mentions four specific reddit users: "INeededACoolerName", "HolyDoucheBags", "BillytheMagicToilet", and "PM_ME_UR_HIP_DIMPLES". lol

We been EXPLORIN'!

A Minecraft screenshot, showing four zoomed-out maps mounted in item frames on a big carved stone (or something) wall. The user is currently in roughly the center of the map, and the upper-right map is incomplete (the others are entirely filled in). The biomes shows are mostly friendly woods, with some ice to the northwest, and badlands to the southwest.

Hey, gets it man, y'know?

Bard: On the other hand, when we try to account for all of the "external reality" that our experience seems to suggest, we can get caught up in a web of questions and doubts. We may start to wonder if our experience is real, or if we are just imagining things. This can be a very stressful and anxiety- provoking experience. So, if you are looking for a simpler and more relaxed way to experience the world, I would recommend focusing on your current experience without trying to explain or justify it. Just be aware of it, and let it be.
