But Matthew, consider: Tarantino is a jackass who “borrowed” most of his ideas and almost killed Uma Thurman. Meanwhile you got to work with David Lynch.

#ScarlettJohansson has been cast in #TheBatman2 as a villainous love interest. Who might she be playing? I have some ideas.

This is your occasional reminder that, if you like Neil Gaiman's stuff, but can't bring yourself to like it anymore for justifiable reasons, Tanith Lee is the author he is credibly accused of extensively cribbing from, and her work is on Audible, and AMAZING.

People are all sharing this approvingly, but the reason Halle Berry is mad at Gavin Newsom is because her scam AI menopause supplement health woo company can't bleed taxpayers because of the bill he vetoed. A pox on all of their houses.

The reaction to that Starfleet Academy poster is adding more to my theory that Star Trek fans only really like one Star Trek show and they wish every other Star Trek show was like that one show.

5 Dec 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- Former Obama natl security assoc. Lucas Schleusener says group called STARRS & Trump advisor Laura Loomer combing thru fed employees' posts for anything showing they're LGBTQ+ & harassing them or getting them fired in a "Lavender Scare" purge like the 1950s.

This is AI. It's fake. It's fictional. This is the new world of AI-Evangelism. It's manipulative, disingenuous, and predatory. It targets older, vulnerable people who won’t know the difference – aiming to convert through deception for views and ad revenue. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiyv...

An AI image generator startup’s database was left accessible to the open internet, revealing more than 1 million images and videos, including photos of real people who had been “nudified.” www.wired.com/story/huge-t...

"If the person is a U.S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter." --Brett Kavanaugh, Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo

To say nothing of RFK Jr. and the war on vaccines.

Which parents are the ones who get "parental rights?" In Bellbrook-Sugarcreek School District (OH), it's those who want to ban books featuring any "sexuality content" or "gender ideology." Inside the school board's educationally-destructive new policy: bookriot.com/bellbrook-su...

📚 🦸🏻‍♀️RUTHERFORD COUNTY — “Go and thank your librarian. Absolute heroes.” Library director Luanne James gets thunderous applause for bravely blowing the whistle on library board director Cody York, the latest front in the right-wing war on books in Tennessee. Full: www.threads.com/@thetnholler...

Please take ten minutes to email a thank you to your local public or school librarian and copy the superintendent or mayor. Let them know libraries matter to you!

I need to find the parody I wrote years ago about about people who don't understand what Hallelujah is about.

Oh, @dannygallagher.bsky.social?

Not trying to burst any bubbles; but Spotify is over. They are airing ICE recruitment ads, the CEO has been investing in military/AI tech, they barely pay their artists; sometimes a percentage of a cent per stream, they promote “fake/AI artist” playlists, and there’s major concerns about data use.

Reminder that Sam Altman is being sued by his younger sister for sexual abuse.

Wherever you live, this story has significant implications because the trend of defunding libraries, when we should be fortifying these outposts of learning, sharing, and survival, is a national phenomenon. Libraries are models of the kind of infrastructure we must EXPAND to get the world we want.

If you want to quickly understand what's going on at Oklahoma University - with the transphobic student suing over a well-deserved bad grade from a trans TA - read Noah's post.

"83% of heavy AI users couldn’t recall key points from what they’d “written,” compared to only 10 percent of those who composed unaided." This is my argument to my students: my class will be excruciating if they don't write their own stories & critiques, bc in class they have to explain*why*.

While we are here, please make sure you are UP TO DATE ON YOUR VACCINES. If you don’t know what you may need see here: • www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... And PLEASE see my previous thread on COVID-19 vaccines and where to find them and how to get them in your state! • vaccinefinder.org

Will continue to bang this drum: this is the system university admins are cramming into every aspect of education. This is the system we are told “isn’t going anywhere” so we all have to adjust to it.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Kitchens on fire off the oil in the ovens. I watched tokens glitter in the dark near the skeeball grate. All those moments will be lost in time, like pizzas in rain. Time to die.

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries: “Strong floor, no ceiling” Colombian President Gustavo Petro: “A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy.”

I don't know what I find more objectionable. A) Facebook giving me ads for beautiful Ukrainian women seeking husbands. B) The woman in the ad clearly being AI generated C) The ad addressing me as a man over 50.

NEW — RFK Jr.’s HHS sent out a survey asking employees to report instances of anti-Christian bias during the Biden administration, and the Dept. of Labor announced its inaugural prayer service. These are just the latest instances of Trump’s extreme Christian creep within the federal government.

If you ever wondered what GOP gerrymandering looks like in red states with blue cities, I present:

The irony of reading this on social media..

Great culture can save lives. Literally. Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

Generative AI is a disease! I drew & painted this one myself, thus distributing creative work back to the humans ✊

Pastor Jorge Bautista was telling a Border Patrol agent "we come in peace" when the agent fired toxic powder at him, leaving him struggling to breathe. “No one should be assaulted for being out there protesting,” he says. With @frontlinepbs.bsky.social

ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety. My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

Wait, wait. Netflix is going to take on massive debt to purchase Warner Bros? Like did you not see AOL, AT&T and Discovery all step on that exact same rake or were you just not paying attention?
