Feel powerless? Everything sucks right now? I am once again reminding everyone that one of the BEST, most basic things the average person can do to resist this fucking regime is to STOP BUYING SHIT. Stop spending money and if you DO spend it: spend small, spend local, spend independent.

Repair and reuse what you can. Wear old clothes. Make your coffee and your lunch at home. Borrow shit. Go to the library.

A friend drew me and it makes me wanna cry I love getting art 😭❤️

Art of me by @candiewrapper.bsky.social I commissioned! I love it so much ❤️ Big recommend if anyone wants a good reference ^-^

Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.

this is a good repost

Grandma was watching the news about the ICE shooting that happened today. Grandma: “What does ICE stand for?” Me: “Immigration and Customs Enforcement. They—” Grandma: “Oh, so they’re Nazis.” If Holocaust survivors can tell, so should everyone else.

cuz’ I’m a punk rocker, yes I am ♫

In light of recent Ai related nonsense in the creative industry, I wanted to present some easy-to-digest facts about Generative Ai

Happy holidays from bigstinkus. #neopets

The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht

its a genuinely deeply unfun place to be right now and its our job to keep it that way

I'm obsessed with ancient sculpture. Like how is it so.... Je ne sais quoi...

Noticing that Democrats are passing “right to die” laws before passing “right to housing” or “right to healthcare” laws www.nprillinois.org/government-p...

maybe we could use another splash screen.

TGA was mid but I'm stuck on this one odd phrase Goeff Keighley said when Silksong won best Action Adventure: "See? you guys did win something" just felt so condescending lol

There is absolutely no right price for transphobia.

Not even a little exaggerating btw

I miss watching people live stream but at some point in the last 3 years I became unable to have two sources of media playing at the same time. If I have music/stream on while I'm gaming, I either get overwhelmed or completely tune it out and don't engage such that it might as well not be on.

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks came out on this day, 16 years ago! (December 7, 2009) Do you love this train game??

Anti-ICE poster spotted in Portland, Oregon

things have been too good lately in the personal life. stressful, busy, exhausting but in a good way? I'm so scared that I'm going to stop holding my breath and everything is going to crumble around me. something something trauma

Samus!

An experienced organizer I really respect once reminded folks "you can't always win, but you can always, always inflict a cost. Those add up."

The numbers in here are hilarious. Do you use AI on the job? Execs: 87% Managers: 57% Workers: 27% Planned investment by 2030: $5T "Necessary" annual revenue to justify that spend: $650B Current annual revenue: $50B

Police have access to massive surveillance networks that track the public whether they are suspects or not. That means probably for every 1 officer caught using the system to harass or spy on people they have feuds with, ex's, activists, journalists, there are probably 100 more we don't know about.

they fucking dismantled him

EVERY SINGLE CASH PROGRAM LIKE THIS WORKS

$20 orchiectomy at claires

Half-Life 3 looks fucking SICK

Essentially my entire BG3 playthrough

With Alt text!

incredible that for big companies, this is gonna be considered the 'uncompromising take'

Every time I get an email or read a post about how "AI is inevitable" and so you need to do X or Y to get ready for it, I screenshot it. I've saved them all. When the bubble bursts, I'm going to be a menace. I will be unstoppable. I will be taken to prison for the harassment I am going to do.

Sloppers fuck off. If you can’t do it yourself maybe learn to be happy as the audience www.sonnyross.com/shop/aisucks

"AI is a tool." No. Empirically not. A tool empowers people; helps people. It solves an extant problem. Generative AI in creative mediums is being used as a cudgel that diminishes and eliminates people, and the only "problem" being solved is fiscal. Stop validating it, even in passing.

So out of shape that just doing a 30 min stretch routine every day makes me feel sore like i've done a full workout... ☹️ Remedying this!!! I don't want my flesh mech to be so weak anymore lol
