Cindy Williams. I was so in love with her as a kid.

And her ten minute appearance on Andy Kaufman's special remains one of the most awkward moments of the pre-Borat era. (And rewatching it, I was struck how much Zach Galifanakis' 'Between Two Ferns' owes this bit.)

Yes! I loved her as well.

We also lost Lisa Loring, Wednesday Addams 1.0.

I know it's a tragedy, but I've found this whole war so funny. Having grown up under the "OMG The Russians are coming!!!" culture it's amazing to watch how utterly hopeless and crazy they are in action. For 70 years we've feared these people then, when you peek in the window, you see them standing on a chair beating at a mouse with a broom.

My reaction has been very similar. Though I am shocked at just how incompetent the Russian military has been. It's like a Benny Hill sketch sometimes.

I've noticed that my AI generator - Diffusion Bee - has changed recently: it used to default to nightmarish photorealism to cartoonish productions.

I'm going to send Nacho an example.

Light, dumb adventure. Great stuff too! White Plague.

Book two in this fun series. Protocol Zero.

Book three in the Joe Rush series. Have loved this series so far. One more to go... And I don't think Joe Rush is in any shape to deal with it, poor bastard.

The image generators are really something. (Something scary?) Word is a very near future iteration will be able to create moving images.

Isn't that already a thing? Like those singing picture apps and shit?
