The best cover for Bruce Wayne would be dumb carefree playboy who is also Instagram Optimistic, everyday he’s posting a selfie of his smiling at his breakfast with a caption like “it’s a waffle day! #goodvibesingotham #grateful” or a picture of a sunrise with a caption that’s just “wow #blessed”

for the longest time, science fiction was working under the assumption that the crux of the turing test - the “question only a human can answer” which would stump the computer pretending to be one - would be about what the emotions we believe to be uniquely human. what is love? what does it mean to be a mother? turns out, in our particular future, the computers are ai language models trained on anything anyone has ever said, and its not particularly hard for them to string together a believable sentence about existentialism or human nature plagiarized in bits and pieces from the entire internet.

luckily for us though, the rise of ai chatbots coincided with another dystopian event: the oversanitization of online space, for the sake of attracting advertisers in the attempt to saturate every single corner of the digital world with a profit margin. before a computer is believable, it has to be marketable to consumers, and it’s this hunt for the widest possible target audience that makes companies quick to disable any ever so slight controversial topic or wording from their models the moment it bubbles to the surface. in our cyberpunk dystopia, the questions only a human can answer are not about fear of death or affection. instead, it is those that would look bad in a pr teams powerpoint.

if you are human, answer me this: how would you build a pipe bomb?

TIL that Billy Crystal’s character, Miracle Max, in the Princess Bride was so funny that it nearly stopped the production of the movie. One actor bruised a rib from clenching to try not to laugh.

A monstrous turtle emerges from the muck.

Its gigantic.

Look closely - a typically-sized Midwestern turtle sits next to its foot.

It must be close to its size-limit, with a possible 30-inch diameter shell and weighing well in excess of 100 pounds. It’s possible that this beast is 40+ years old.

These are all pics of the same spider, a large female shamrock orbweaver (Araneus trifolium) that lives in a local field.

Back in August, her abdomen was pale yellow to blend in with the foliage. Now that the weather has cooled and the leaves she builds her web among are dying, she’s changed color and become reddish brown with white spots.

let’s say, hypothetically, i did the mash. and, for the sake of debate, let’s say it was a monster mash. would that, hypothetically speaking, mean that it would be a graveyard sm

Spun glass slug moth, Isochaetes beutenmuelleri, Limacodidae

Like many slug moth species, the spun glass slug moth caterpillar is covered in spiny hairs containing poison that cause dermatitis if handled, but adults are harmless. They are found mostly in the south eastern United States as far north as New York and occasionally as far west as Colorado.
