Some inspiring words on cinema in the streaming era from the Pope. Yes, THAT Pope.

Watching a video on an airplane without headphones should be illegal. 🙄

“When AI replaces human artists, it’s not just the artists getting shafted, it’s also you getting ripped off. You used to be paying for this art, now you’re paying for nothing, but you’re still paying.”

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

Ken Sim and ABC are facing huge opposition to their opaque, undemocratic, and detailless budget that will bring huge cuts to city staff, services, and programs. It only takes 2 minutes to add your voice. Write to Council: www.votecope.ca/stopsim #vanpoli #StopTheCuts

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract. Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

Mammoth spotted in South Poland! Actually, a to-scale model by Studio Kamyk for the Jegiellonian University Nature Education Centre, Krakow. 😍

Beautiful

Reposting because it seems the mayor had another full day of it *plays tiny violin*

Can we vote him out already plez

Burn. It. Down. 😠 www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfqr...

Never forget the same people defending pedophilia have spent years trying to convince the public that drag queens and trans people are a threat to children. It’s all smoke and mirrors to allow the real predators to roam free.

‘The Owl House’ creator Dana Terrace responds to Disney+ funding AI-generated short form content in new tweet: “Unsubscribe from Disney+. Pirate Owl House. I don’t care. Fuck gen AI.”

Ok folks we are back at it again from 1-5. Yesterday was a lot. Heard from so many passionate Vancouverites. Unfortunately I heard the mayor say it was a waste of time. But I assure you, I’m listening.

It’s ICY in Brooklyn today!

😂

Can I just say that I like flipping through r/bald on Reddit. The guys that take the plunge always look so good and seem happier, and all the comments are so positive 😊

i'd also like to say that our awesome city councillor has been shredding his fingers summarizing well over 200 speakers' worth of comments at this point. our city's leadership might suck doorknobs but we have ppl in city hall who really give a shit abt keeping ppl informed bsky.app/profile/sean...

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck? It's the Pope in 1982.

Anyone who cares about Vancouver, whether you share Sean’s politics or not, should read through his multiple threads of citizens’ statements; folks range widely in age and income bracket but not in sentiment. ABC passing this budget will alienate the entire city.

very impressed by COPE Councillor Orr for reporting summaries of every speaker for this budget, and actually staying until the end unlike most ABC councillors my crude count is there were less than 10 in favour, roughly 260 opposed, with around 330 more speakers to go.

Got informed about some sad news. Garfield Minott, a prolific dinosaur modeller, special effects and palaeoartist, recognised for contributions to the description of dinosaur binocular vision, passed away at age of 58.

Speaker 8 speaks to gender equity, heat mitigation, climate commitments. Could be a climate leader. VPD doesn’t need blank cheque. Shouldn’t need 600 speakers to tell them to do their job.

hey gang

Chantelle Spicer, speaker 2, poverty reduction coalition. This will deepen economic divide. This should be about our values and priorities. This budget is about short term optics. Calls to not increase police budget which makes poverty worse. No correlation between increased funding +public safety.

NEW: Over 630 people have signed up to speak to Council on Ken Sim's last budget. ABC councillors now have a choice to make. Vote for austerity and brutal cuts that nobody asked for - or do the right thing and preserve funding for climate, housing, and arts. #vanpoli #StopTheCuts

15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner. Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

Possibly their most “Brawndo, it’s what plants crave” coded message yet

I do not know the record — number of speakers aren’t automatically recorded in minutes, though there were a number of motions in the Stewart era that got close to 200. But this means a vote on the preliminary budget likely won’t happen for a week or two.

You can tell Ken Sim directly what you think about his budget by filling out this feedback form, it takes 1 minute! tinyurl.com/mabec78b

On #RememberanceDay in Canada we say #LestWeForget because forgetting means we fail to honour those who gave their lives defending freedom from fascists and nazis. And all those who still defend us today. It’s also because if we forget, we’re doomed to repeat. That’s more relevant now than ever.

The amount that special event fees are being raised by in Vancouver is exorbitant. Most other increases on the list are moderate or non-existent. This is going to kill small businesses & community events council.vancouver.ca/20251112/doc...

The gang's all here! #HazbinHotel #AngelDust #Alastor #CharlieMorningstar #Vox

I cannot WAIT to vote in our municipal elections. So very, very done with Ken Sim's antics

Lest we forget

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

I would like to report a murder...
