Naw I want it for my kid, glow in the dark and all, and I don't wanna pay a fortune for it 😭

It looks like it is out of print, I'm hoping that I still have it on a box somewhere, because it's selling online for stupid prices.

Oh shit, I googled for what I could remember and I found it:

A very scary jack-o'-lantern

Reading this little pumpkin shaped glow in the dark book about a witch. My whimsy levels went through the roof.

I wish I could remember what the book was called

American exceptionalism and identity politics have become so ingrained in the culture that it is too painful for people to identify as lower class and needing assistance. Needing help has become considered a moral failing of the individual instead of a failing of the society, and that feeds back into itself to prevent people from changing the culture.

I don't, but I should.
I don't because my fear of donating to a fraudulent/ineffective organization aligns with my laziness regarding figuring out the best causes and procrastinating in making a budget.

Fear and executive dysfunction, together forming the perfect storm of neurodivergent inaction.

I second someone else suggestion: the murderbot diaries. It's great.
Most of the books people here are recommending are fairly lengthy, but you can get through the first murderbot book in a dedicated evening.

Each of the novels is more detached than the last - it's great but probably not for someone just starting their journey into fiction

I'm probably going to judge you if you say Holocene, without an interesting non-trivial reason.

I remember everyone calling her androgynous at the time. Looking back, that was an absolutely wild thing for people to think.

 

What a sweet deal! Thanks Hello Fresh!

Theme

Create a new sport that you think should be added to the next (or some future) Olympic games.

I've heard that the Olympics are currently happening, so I figured why not celebrate this by telling the Olympic committee how dumb they are for passing over your new idea for an Olympic sport!

I've been trying to find this video for a while with no luck, and idk what other community to ask.

The video features this yellow dancing CG blob alien thing, and the lyrics go something like:

We made AI to do the dumb stuff, so we could do the fun stuff
But now it does the fun stuff, and we became the dumb stuff

Does anyone remember it, or know where to find it?
The little singing alien thing popped up a few times on my FYP but I feel like I'm taking crazy pills because I can't find any evidence that it ever existed.

 

Theme

Try to recreate a classic exploitable meme using AI!

I'm gonna switch up the scoring a little for this challenge, so be sure to read the score section:

  • Most ambitious: the most complex meme or the meme that I (a layman) feels would be very difficult to describe via prompt.
  • Most recognizable: the meme is the easiest to identify, and is the most accurate to the original
  • Do not include the name of the meme in the prompt: the challenge is to find a novel way to recreate the meme, not just get the model to spit out an image it was trained on. You can use words that are in the name of the meme, but avoid telling the model to just make the meme.
