Philly with the justified “FUCK ICE” chants #AEWDynamite

so like lemme weigh in on this as someone who is more financially comfortable than many in my generational cohort: everything I have gained seems precarious and temporary because I know the people with real money will take it all from me the second they get an opportunity and no one will protect me.

yikes :(

These AI companies are trying SO HARD to get you to accept it. "Look! We got these popular artists to use it and endorse it! You like these artists, don't you? Don't you want to support your favorite artists?" THEY ARE LOSING MONEY AND NEED YOU TO BUY IN. DON'T FALL FOR IT.

... ... ... People do realize that, even if a person uses those AI bots to dunk on them, they're still contributing to a win in the tech bros' books, right? Microsoft proudly boasts "we had [X million] requests to Copilot!" in their developer mailing lists, not "...but half were to shit on it."

Oh wow, I am loving the high-quality equipment here, I didn't know such a cutter existed! 😅

Ever wonder how we scan video game magazines? Watch this issue of Neopets The Official Magazine go from physical to digital.

False equivalence. This is a convo about ownership. Spend $10.99/mo on CDs and in a year you've got 12 CDs. Yours forever even if you go broke and can't buy more. Spend $10.99/mo on streaming and then have to cancel? You've spent the same $ and you have...nothing. These are not equivalent systems.

People don't long for "inconvenience." They long for permanence. And though streaming services may be convenient, people are waking up to the fact that we are paying rent-seeking middle men month after month for things we will never actually own.

There was some speculation on the Retronauts Discord that TwinBee: Rainbow Bell Adventures never came to the U.S. because Konami couldn't figure out how to market it in the screamoid era of ’90s game ads, so I took it upon myself to lead the way

even putting this fresh hell aside: piracy remains a more ethical alternative to spotify, because you’re not pretending to be ethical while giving your money to the owners of a platform that only substantially rewards its already rich artists www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

New way to view these Data Centers that are draining the communities they implant themselves in... draining resources for slop

I spent most of my teenage years on message boards that only had a few hundred active users, and if you were an asshole, your account got banned. I don't know when it became a virtue to tolerate and enable assholes online.

Many, many moons ago, Adult Swim was going to show Rejected, even promoting its airing date throughout the week, and then at the last minute, they canceled the airing. No explanation, no apologies to the viewers, just reeks of cowardice. And it proved that Adult Swim wasn't infalliable.

This needs too be normalized at conventions.

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

Fashion designer Jeremy Scott delivers commencement speech to Kansas City Art Institute graduates. Wait for it…

DON HERTZFELDT, in this the year of our oversized spoon 2026, has uploaded a HD version of Rejected to his YT channel?!?!?! OH MY GOD WHAT IS THIS I'M SO HAPPY HIIIIII

HD-DVD is here to stay. We need to stop fearmongering about HD-DVD and start finding the ways that HD-DVD can be used ethically and to support our causes. Naysayers need to realize that this technology is inevitable.

Anime On DVD was a multiple times daily go-to for me, and a lot of anime fans of the era. @chrisbeveridge.bsky.social built up an amazing, valuable resource that helped so many fans of the era, and inspired a bunch of fans like me to take up the pen and start reporting, ourselves.

Went to an anti AI datacentre protest march today and a friend of mine got a picture that summed it all up

If you are called out for posting AI slop rage bait take the L and delete the post. You can still have the conversation about whatever without promoting these click farmers. We really need to work on this shit, it's not innocent.

They made a movie about a world where billionaires pay for the trains it was called Snowpiercer

come on down to tom brady's gently used pokemon emporium

Over 20 years ago when I was experimenting with making videos, I did this rather silly reedit of Peter Griffin's TV show in his head, My Black Son. Since I was such a TV nerd & recognized everything here, I wanted to put in all the references used on the segment. The things I find on old discs.

Time is linear, and the next generation will see the stuff that you enjoyed the same way you looked at the stuff the generation before you did. Old-school rap is now considered "cookout/unc music." When this banger plays, we ALL dance. Thank you, Rob Base. RIP. www.youtube.com/watch?v=phOW...

San Francisco needs to be completely expropriated from the techbros and returned to its rightful owners, the LGBT community

I had the pleasure of meeting Marco Albiero today! He gave me a lot of wonderful gifts but nothing could’ve prepared me for this beautiful Cutie Honey illustration! It nearly brought me to tears. He is an absolute treasure. ❤️

Imagine opening a vape shop and the top image on your Google info page since the week you opened is a copy of Quest 64 with a quarter million views

Universities are deeply ambivalent about cocaine ... But this is not the way. You can't preserve thinking by banning cocaine--and that rule is practically unenforceable. The best course, in the long term, is to help students understand how to use cocaine an an aid to thinking.

It's ironic how some old folks are like "kids jeed to get off their phones and go someplace productive like a library" then have this shit drop

It may not help the average American, but, just for shits and giggles, let's try it just once to see what'll happen. A couple of years, maybe a decade or two, let's just see what happens if we do that.

VHS was good enough at the time, but also clunky, bulky, and failure prone. Romanticize that era all you like, but also remind yourself that you don't have to stand in line at the post office to send your friends fansubs any more

Management brain, 2026: a computer can never be held responsible, so we want computers to make ALL the decisions! Nothing is anybody’s fault!

JUST TELL ME THE FUCKING POST OFFICE HOURS JESUS CHRIST

Yeah, I care about Data Centers. Like when Data is the Center of an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation

The problem with calling AI generated imagery “slop” is that it’s not really accurate. If we want a more accurate term “soulless refuse from a heartless void” works fine.
