FB post by a Felix Cavaliere’s Rascals group with a photo of David Brigati. “We are very saddened by the news of David Brigati’s passing. We lost a tremendous talent. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Brigati family. ❤️” Below, the dumbass Meta AI asks “Why is David Brigati’s passing sad news?”

Screenshot of what you get when you click on that dumbass question: • Meta Al Why is David Brigati's passing sad news? David Brigati's passing is sad news because he was a multifaceted individual who made a positive impact in various areas of his life. There are two notable individuals with the name David Brigati, one being a pathologist who passed away in 2006 and another who is a singer associated with the rock band The Rascals. Pathologist David Brigati (1948-2006) • Was a respected pathologist in Fort Worth, Texas, practicing at Harris and Kindred hospitals in Tarrant County and Campbell Hospital in Parker County • Remembered by colleagues and friends for his compassion, teaching, and mentorship • Left behind a family, including his wife Doreen and children Jessica, Kimberly, Lindsey, and David Peter Singer David Brigati (born 1940)

Meta AI ain’t achieving consciousness any time soon, kids.

And that little bass figure at the end.

Camp Guards sure seem to think it’s a death camp.

Spuds!

One measure of a person is how much they detest Lou Holtz.

Haven’t flown my U.S. flag since election day 2024. Bought one the day Trump got indicted and flew it on national holidays and every day he was sitting behind a defense table.

Been flying a progress pride flag most days since, but have had the new MN flag out since the occupation started.

Wondering if the media would've chosen "honored" as the verb if Obama had saluted fallen soldiers in a fucking baseball cap

Upper right corner of Thursday’s Pioneer Press. The headline of the story directly below a photo of Lou Holtz and a caption pointing to his obit in Sports, begins with “Minnesota fraud gets hearing…”

Cleaning up some old papers and missed the excellent juxtaposition here.

I suspect St. Peter’s giving that Minnesota fraud quite the hearing.

god, no better argument for the humanities than to see the techbros get absolutely wrecked over the consciousness question. buddy, descartes was doing this shit four hundred years ago

Oh, man. I had to watch this five times to watch it flying because I was laughing so hard I couldn’t see it through the tears.

Hey Target, for free I can tell you: it’s not the products that tarnished your image and it won’t be product overhauls that help you “regain” it.

Meh. Get back to me when Anthropic’s CEO gains consciousness.

“Guy’s got a million-dollar arm and a ten-cent hea…wait, what?”

That last line. Whoa.

“Why shouldn’t you tell a soul?”

Missed extra points stink.

Agree, but 7 if I need to wind tape back into a cassette.

Only play I saw there was “A Christmas Carol”. Caught concerts by Kenny Loggins, Bruce Cockburn, Lyle Lovett and Nanci Griffith.

Inspired by @theshebeen.bsky.social (I think it was him) who once wrote that former QB/Blue Dog Democrat Heath Shuler had made two careers out of throwing passes to the wrong team.

Looking to make two careers out of playing for a big money team that most folks hate.

One worked in the office at a coke company (the coal-based kind) the other sorted post on mail trains.
