1/ This company’s models were trained on web scraped datasets (like LAION) and their founders are ex-Stability AI employees who engage in the same thieving practices that led artists like myself to sue Stability. GenAi companies NEED big names to sanitize their exploitation and crippling PR.

It’s wild that the only times he has come in the public lately is to undermine the organizational efforts of Black people in specific. From that “we off that” about Kaep, to organizing the Super Bowl and now this. The man is an opp.

This All-American story has been repeated throughout our history in various iterations. A private venture for the rich that ignores safety concerns & threatens lives, a big rain, then a massive flood. The Johnstown Flood, killing 2,200. The rich evade accountability claiming it was an act of God.

The stuff going around about how conservative art isn’t good/doesn’t exist is interesting because what it means, which is true, is that the American conservative wing 2026 is completely incapable of making good art. There are several reasons for this but they boil down to the absence of vision 1/3

Did you know, sheep are fantastic problem-solvers? They can navigate mazes and remember pathways, which surprised researchers who once underestimated their intelligence We never underestimate them — they listen to our problems everyday! 💚 Watch our sheep on youtube here: youtu.be/6VPVYppcsw4?...

is it the steady drumbeat of corporate enshittification by an authoritarian-coddling extraction class in a country increasingly too corrupt to function in the public interest? I bet it's that

Warren Ellis (the comics guy) was wrong about virtually everything, but his scabrous satire of this grinning ghoul as the Smiler in TRANSMETROPOLITAN was dead-on.
