Someone on Reddit is using ChatGPT to generate memes that only AI would understand. This one is my favorite.

I like to imagine that “algomillims” and “that’s so cache” is AI youth slang.

SFTSV is a bumyavirus that causes hemorrhagic fever. Zoonotic transmissions from pets to humans has been known for years. And now we know humans can transmit to each other, as well.

@maja_divjak Hi Maja,

I only check the feeds of a few people I follow. This place has become a cesspit of toxicity and misinformation. Such a shame. I've renamed it ShitterX.

I saw you a couple of weeks ago at VCCC, looks like you are still doing some fun stuff. Rock On Mate!!

Just before the storm hit Melbourne yesterday, I had the thought to chuck up a GoPro for a Timelapse. Didn't quite get the full spectacle, but what I did get was rather cool. #melbourneweather
