I remember seeing the first corporate entreaties about AI that had jumped containment and been posted online. They were not gentle, but they weren't overtly hostile: how have you used AI this week to accomplish your tasks? If you squint a little, you can see kind of a weird visage in the negative space. The newer ones I've seen are a little more like placing a loaded gun on the table before you speak. Why haven't you? I think the third evolution of this dialogue is just you getting locked out of Slack, with a mysterious meeting placed on your calendar for later that day.

July 7th, 2025: FUN FACT: you can tell a gun from a spacegun by carefully observing their "bang bang" / "pew pew" dichotomy. TONIGHT at The Beguiling: it's a FANTASTIC FOUR #1 signing! I'll be there from 4-6 and hopefully I will see YOU there too! And then on Saturday it's a FANTASTIC FOUR #1 signing in Clearwater Florida when I come to Emerald City Comics! – Ryan | ||

I was just talking about how Mork's hunger for the written word exposed him to all manner of richness, and one of those was a book called The Martian that a man named Andy Weir self-published first on his blog and then on Kindle. Weir wrote more books later, apparently he "caught the bug," and one of them was called Project Hail Mary. There is a spoiler for the book that Mike has judiciously protected me from for four years, and at around two minutes into the trailer they just straight up let the space-cat out of the starbag.

July 4th, 2025: For Canada Day I ate hot dogs and one (1) hamburger at a pool party and, at one point, even went into the basement to sit on a reclining chair and watch baseball with the dads! Dads love to watch baseball in the basement during social gatherings and I was invited into their circle!! – Ryan | ||

I was talking to Kiko, whose entire social media diet is checking BlueSky once a week, and it was clear to me how hale and vigorous he was as a result. My own nutrition, pilfered by these deleterious forces, is patchy at best. Necessary compounds are scarce; youthful skin is a memory. I just saw myself in a mirror - for a few moments, I thought I was looking at bowling ball with a greasy napkin draped over it.

There's a lot of focus on the brains and the flesh and whatnot - long, ragged strips of manflesh, juicy like a papaya. But what do zombies want in the long term? Has anybody even asked? Or are they too busy running away from zombies in the corrugated metal maze of a favela? Look. We're always being told to let people cook, with questionable results. Wastrels, "writers" and the like. They've been extended a blank check; an unlimited opportunity to cook the void. Thankfully, the 28 Days X franchise is bold enough to get down to brass fucking tacks.

Meanwhile search services should be running, but probably returning no results or incomplete results for most queries.

I start tons of books using the Kindle preview but end up actually buying and finishing far fewer. I lean towards hard Sci-Fi. I like inscrutable alien artifacts and massive jumps through time. If I’m not reading about spaceships I’m reading history books for some reason. I think because the good ones at least are sort of like time travel books. I’ve managed to finish a bunch of great books recently from both these genres and I wanted to share my finds here for those of you with similar reading interests.

I haven't played a Kojima game all the way through since Metal Gear Solid 2, and that was before he started getting truly wild with the cutscenes. I love to watch them though, which is fully in-line with the profound, unique spectacle they offer. 2 Live Crew's third album was entitled "As Nasty As They Wanna Be," and there is a version of this principle in place for Hideo Kojima - very, very few people are allowed by the universe to be this true to their instincts, to "shock the world" as Silkk The Shocker put it. I'm trying to figure out another old school hip hop reference but I think this paragraph is essentially spent. Everything that we say in the strip is true, though.
