Because he’s really popular with other nazis who are also dangers to the world.


Is that you, Abby Normal? 🧠
Real talk: no good person counts anything done to you without your consent as flipping your virginity label.

No, this is a J-Law.



Holding people accountable for shitty things they publicly do, declare, and promote is not “messed up.” Being publicly shitty will result in people knowing you’re shitty, and I find that good.
Reminds me of the original ads for the Sci-Fi Channel. I loved those big shots of Saturn in the sky as a kid, even though they gave me the occasional nightmare.
The intact image credit means you can easily look up the artist and see her Instagram as well as her homepage and portfolio which provably predates the slop era by around 20 years.
This sort of thing is still pretty easy to look for if you’re curious.
The big dishwasher-unsafe novelty mugs are good for keeping on your desk to hold pens or mints or something.

An LLM is just going to rehash known decisions made by a lot of the real weirdos having kids, but without any thought behind which of them are used when.


It’s even faster to ask your own armpit what’s wrong with your code, but that alone doesn’t mean you’re getting a good answer from it


The MST3K bots were originally built for the show using various random toys and household items. There has been a “bot building” scene of fans dedicated to collecting those bot parts and replicating the show’s bots for ages, and that community has always traded parts and part replicas matching the show’s bots among themselves. (I get the sense home 3D-printing has taken over for most of the demand for bot parts nowadays, but that wasn’t yet a thing when I did this in the early 2000s.)
There used to be quite a few websites and forums about the bots and their components. The only ones from those old days I still see online are this one and this one.
For Servo I tracked down and modified the same candy dispensers they used for his head. His torso, arms, and hands are resin-cast copies of matching originals sourced from a fellow bot builder, his shoulders and the black trains along his bowl are vacuformed plastic sheets a fellow bot builder fabricated using matching original parts as molds, and the bowl and other mechanics were things I had found or made myself.
20something years later I stripped out the internal puppetry mechanics, transforming the puppet to a static statue. I changed the bowl, and installed lamp wiring from a home lamp-rewiring kit. The bulb is an Alexa-compatible smart bulb, situated at the bottom of his clear globe, and I filled the globe with clear glass marbles. I have him set up to switch on in the afternoon with the rest of the lights around the house, and he changes color every hour until it’s time to switch off in the evening.
I then tested the whole thing safely to ensure the wiring was intact and safe, and checked that the whole thing doesn’t get hot under normal use. All is well!
Thanks! I’ve posted it there.


Not the bees!!


Seriously. They may as well be interviewing a flipping coin, and then proclaiming that it “admitted” heads.


I’m lying in this statement.
Not even Steven Seagal can find a Steven Seagal wig. That’s why he took that floor mat from a 1987 Toyota Corolla.
