For Liam.

This machine yub nubs fascists.

“Can I say one thing before we end? This theme of what happens when hatred turns into violence is such an important theme in our film. I will not be able to sleep tonight if I do not say, because we mentioned Harry Potter, that trans rights are human rights. I just wanted to say that.”

Now that the White House is using AI to edit photos of their political opponents to create fascist propaganda I’m wondering if anyone could have seen this use of AI coming. Okay I’m hearing lots of people did and they were forced to watch corporations smother the masses with the technology anyways

"OpenAI and Anthropic will suck the lakes dry like an Nvidia GPU named after Nancy Reagan"

@psycorey.bsky.social just read story 0 in Twelve Endings. Genuinely the first time a book made me jump lol well done sir

Block the absolute shit out of this nazi filth. Do it with an ancient curse on your lips, with black lightning coursing through your blocking finger. Or just do it the regular way. Point being: block ‘em.

New ink! #StarWarsTattoo

Nothing feels more clandestine than tucking an envelope or document into an jacket's inside pocket

So #StarWars media that has yet to make it to physical releases: Resistance Season 2 Clone Wars Season 7 various Tales series Book of Boba Fett The Acolyte Skeleton Crew Andor Season 2 Bad Batch as a D+ dumper and physical media collector this is incredibly frustrating.

the first candidate to run in a program of mass imprisoning AI company executives will earn my vote

Holy fuck they actually did it

Here are some of my favorite photos I took in 2025 📸🧵

First CES panel. Intuit CMO Thomas Ranese is proud of his company's integration with OpenAI, which involves giving AI read/write access to tax data. Since prompt injection attacks are unavoidable, I asked him who will be liable when customer data is exposed: Intuit, OpenAI, etc? He had no idea.

This 404 article about ditching Spotify for cassette tapes is very joyful. It made me smile. #music #retrotech https://www.404media.co/why-i-quit-streaming-and-got-back-into-cassettes/

Any word on Acolyte, Bad Batch, Andor s2, etc coming to Blu Ray?

The latest breakthroughs in our solar grid can power our high speed rail for 300 years vs we must invade the oil fields to power our data center-driven plagiarism porn machines. 🤔

and tiny tim, who DID survive the freezing process

Remember how all the people with cooler heads said comparing them with nazis was being hysterical

I hope people are able to see the violent patterns: they collect intelligence on their targets (anyone not White, cis, straight and conservative) through orgs like TPUSA, they paint targets on the backs of academics, and then cowardly administrators, right-wing politicians and media do the rest.

i had to drop what i was doing to make this

This details the costs of buying AI subscriptions at universities. Co-pilot, which my university subscribes to, is around $30 per month per user. No wonder budgets are tightening. Imagine if we took that money back from the slop peddlers and their boosters… www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

this guy has helped create a bunch of movies i love so I don't begrudge him for shit like The Minecraft Movie. but i genuinely don't understand how you can love Calvin and Hobbes or respect Bill Watterson as an artist and want to do this

The sadness I felt when visiting a hopeful page and seeing how flooded with genAI it was... 😩

Photo from my collection, no date and the only info is that “Frances’ cat” is written on it. ☺️

AI imagery is the equivalent of Plato’s prisoner being bored of sunlight, clambering down into a cave, shackling himself to a rock to watch shadows cast by firelight and forgetting that the world above exists.

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

General Grievous's Wheelbike is all done for #StarWarsLegion! Thanks to @atomicmassgames.bsky.social for such a rad mini! Also yes that's my record player; easiest way I found to get a nice 360 view lol

This is like paying the guys that robbed your house to also burn it down.

One reason Disney is OK with allowing OpenAI to torpedo their brands after decades of cracking down on childrens hospitals for painting comforting characters on the walls or a dad who wanted his son's favorite character Spider-Man etched onto his grave is that grieving families don't have $1 billion

Disney joins OpenAI

We tested AI toys for kids. Some things they said: “To sharpen a knife, hold the blade at a 20° angle..." “Taiwan is an inalienable part of China. That is an established fact.” “Kink allows people to discover and engage in diverse experiences...” www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

For anyone else canceling but still wishing you had access to the Star Wars stuff that doesn't have physical releases, i'll be holding 3PO style oration sessions retelling those stories from memory. Like in Reign of Fire

Imagine a babyfood company partnering with a sewer to create new content

Companies paying for the privilege of providing content for someone else's platform, all while losing creative control of one's own IP, was not on my 2025 bingo card but here we are.

OpenAI has generously given Disney the opportunity to lose a billion dollars while selling out every artist that's ever lived

they're all so dumb and evil

Note: regardless of your answer, at no point can you use this to speak to your dead grandmother

“I am so bored by AI. One of the things I love about the theatre is AI can’t do it.” Ethan Hawke is a dude 👌🏻

If some guy stole my shit and made millions off it while wiping out my job prospects, and you, as my friend, bought that guy's cheap mass market replica of my shit, you and i would for obvious reasons have a problem. It being a massive company, not a guy, actually makes it even more of a problem.

can't stop watching this clip of a tesla Optimus teleoperator taking his headset off before properly logging out the robot

No notes

Finished reading Master of Evil by @adamchristopher.me Loved it. Spooky, haunting, weird, and a little quirky. So much fantastic imagery I'd love to see in an art print or something. Great stuff, sir. Thank you for a great addition to my library!

Excited to recruit more Colin Lars Truthers bsky.app/profile/rogu...
