Thank you for the reminder I should binge some QI again.

Today I read the news.

...mentally and emotionally hurting counts too, right?

Whether people like his videos or not is irrelevant. He has done a lot for lots of causes and he genuinely appears to wish everyone the best. It isn't a stunt. Over the years he's put his actions where his words are to prove that he cares.

I don't watch him as much as I used to, but whenever I do or hear something about him, that much hasn't changed.

AI-generated art posted anywhere can bother me. It depends.

If the art comes with a post crediting the art and artists used to create the piece? I don't mind them, even if the art isn't to my taste. But more than often it's not. And I do consider it stealing if the AI-generated art wasn't pulling only from the person who was using the AI's own art.

As most take from anywhere on the internet and attributes it to no one, I shall continue to block.

There is something strange to me about using the term teenager when referring to someone in ancient Egypt. There is nothing wrong with it, but seeing it in an article opposed to in casual conversation? New to me.

Sounds like you have a lot in common with my father's reading tastes. In which case, I will recommend the Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde.

I had not heard this one before, though I have looked into atonal music one time in the past. This is certainly the most unsettling piece I have ever heard and it is amazing. Thank you for sharing the link.

When you are on your own schedule, yes. Otherwise you have to deal with the schedules of businesses and people who aren’t available at night. My doctor won’t see me at midnight, after all.

Yeah, but the community here is theonion. The comment applies the same for any of the satire sites.

For real. The headline could have said "The U.S. is unprepared" and covered the same concepts.

Sorry, Onion, some of these literally have Christmas in their titles. That's a stretch, even for you. XD
