(Even though many of these cattle were born in America, they lack papers. Therefore, many of them are headed into hiding before they can be arrested and deported. Also, there is safety in numbers. The legal term is âherd immunity.â)
Iâve had to explain to friends and associates overseas that this concept is based on a true story.

Yes, some jokes write themselves, especially those about the clown car of political appointments.

I may save this one for my âTrump Cabinet Commemorative Platesâ series.
And now we close with something more inspirational than witty.
This one has been interesting. Iâve found it difficult to predict who will and wonât âgetâ the theme.
The circular object toward the top is the blade assembly from a Boeing 747 engine that broke free and reached escape velocity.
As a former avid shell-collector, I would like point out that your AI is absolutely hopeless at drawing nautili. 
Yeah. I gave up tryinâ. This nautilus (the one near the middle, not the more ridiculous one above it) was actually the best of many tries.
If I compiled a list of things that it is bad at drawing, it would be a long one. Fortunately, some of them can be quite comicalâso sometimes I can make a cartoon twist out of it.
Lately Googleâs Gemini Advanced has gone downhill in quite a number ways, including spitting out irrelevant programming code snippets instead of images. I pay $20/month so Iâm getting irritated.
I just tried to get Gemini to give me an image of nautilus shells, and they donât look terrible to me, but Iâm not a shell collector.
They look more like donuts. Somehow the AI doesnât get the idea of an Archimedean spiral.
Yes, as the nautilus grows it creates a new chamber, at the end of its spiral shell to accommodate its larger body and seals off the empty earlier chamber (I think this gives its shell neutral buoyancy â but itâs been while, so I may be misremembering). If the final chamber is not open to the ocean (which is the case with a donut-shaped shell), the nautilus would not be able to interact with the wider world.
I think this is actually a good example of how Gen AI-prediction can have problems creating good answers. It âunderstandsâ curves, but not the reasoning behind them.
Yes, if it âunderstoodâ Napierâs constant and its relationship to phi and the Golden Ratio and the Fibonacci sequence, it wouldnât make these blunders.
(By the way, I also ask Gemini Advanced not to make photo-realistic images of high resolution because I want the images to look like cartoons.)
Yes, when I first saw that image, I imagined Homer Simpson saying in a haze of bliss, âDohhhhh-nuuts.â
The upper, smaller Nautilus looks like it has its head stuck up its *** (this is anatomically not correct, I know), whereas the ones on the beach have their heads buried in the sand.
Something is fishy in Nautilusland.
Yes, news of the U.S. election has reached the coral reefs of the Western Pacific. One canât blame the Nautilus residents for being distressed.
I figure that the circular object toward the top of the cartoon is actually the fan-blade assembly from a Boeing 747 engine that broke free and reached escape velocity. That or a fancifully glazed donut.
