loved this conversation. Anyone need a crash course on why the intersection of AI, fascism and climate breakdown? We tried to cover it all!

Back in 2016 Humble was literally the only mainstream storefront willing to carry Ladykiller as an 18+ game, which I thought was courageous of them and helped push other platforms. Seeing how far they've fallen since then in making this deeply embarrassing decision is really painful to see

How to start hating your favourite song – practise singing/playing it, over and over

What a weird week. Random dude punched me in the street, I got a new job out of the blue, and I found a nice semi-acoustic guitar for 50e

"In recent history, the Doctor Who actor has repeatedly made headlines thanks to his allyship towards trans and gender non-conforming people – most notably with a subtle gesture during a TV interview that wound up helping to raise £18,000 for the LGBTQ+ youth charity AKT."

Tech giants are building loads of hyperscale data centers to power generative AI. What happened to their climate pledges? This week @ketanjoshi.co joins @parismarx.com to discuss the greenwashing of data centers and how they’re driving fossil fuel demand. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/304_...

Look, Nvidia thought it was a gaming company and OpenAI thought it was a charity so if you're expecting either of those companies to have some master plan to avoid the bubble popping you need to look elsewhere.

Hack Green, I love your work but please stop talking about AI.

Saw “Model/Actriz” in Amsterdam last week. Yes, a super weird name for a band, but I love it. It was wild and set my bar high for what a *performance* should be.

So cute seeing Americans saying “when all this is over” and “after this regime ends”. As an east European, let me tell you: *it* doesn’t end with a vote or a funny social media post. And sometimes it won’t let you do anything about it.

Literally don't have patience to give the benefit of the doubt for youtubers who slip in dogwhistles or complain about "woke". Fuck off.

Not sure if a blog post is AI slop or just written badly

Trying to list some books for sale on #Vinted but the ISBN lookup is completely incorrect. And there's no way to contact support. Someone on Reddit said to enter all 0s, let's see

Way back in 1947, Alan Turing had thoughts on how AI would influence the demand for skilled labor. (via Matteo Pasquinelli 2023 _The Eye of the Master_)

Really enjoyed Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, even though it was a bit flawed (wasn’t a fan of the third act, and the whole thing would’ve worked better as a three-part thing). Feeling like watching it again, just for the vibes. #filmsky 📽️💙

with Marjorie Taylor Greene being kind of a whack job and magic the gathering rolling every IP it can into the game, it’s taking longer and longer to decipher which one posts about “MTG” are actually referencing lately

Finally got around to watching Sense8 and I can’t believe how bad the acting and the dialogue was. Just finished watching episode 2 on fast forward and then quit. 🤷‍♂️

Might just check out Bloodlines 2 after this article. Maybe.

Never forget: At breakneck speed we are leaving the stable Holocene climate in which human society developed and thrived. Weather extremes are outside historical experience. Sea-level rise is accelerating. Dangerous tipping points are ahead. Graph: ed-hawkins.github.io/climate-visu...

Peter Thiel is in the Epstein emails, enjoying himself. Peter Thiel is an overt, convinced, outspoken Nazi. Peter Thiel's company is being paid by the UK government to crawl all over YOUR personal data. Oswald Mosley's grandson runs his UK operation. You can't make it up.

This is only page 3 and I'm so invested in learning more from this author. Luddite as an insult certainly gets thrown around a lot these days, and I'm happy to have their concise clarification on what side of history that movement was on at the very start of the book.

A hell of a resumé

this is incredibly lucid and valuable research.

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows. Does this sound familiar? Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

"It's not a tomb. It's a town. And it will always be." Czech larp group, Rolling, are based out of a former Nazi concentration camp hospital. Their performances embrace the complications and pain of that history.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC. It didn't matter. Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

We need to put pressure on our governments to pressure Israel to let this money go to Palestinians of Gaza. People from around the world donated millions of dollars to thousands of global organizations and none of it has made it to the people it was meant for

Without a doubt my least favourite human being alive.

It's so tough to seperate whether this, like MAGA, is Russian plot in origin or just homegrown plot more than receptive to a Russian plot to overturn democracy. But verily I ask you, what's the fucking difference?

Large crowds converge in Novi Sad to commemorate deadly accident that has led to frequent mass antigovernment protests.
