They are also intentionally conflating machine-learning and generative AI slop to confuse and try to make GenAI seem necessary. Google Maps traffic stuff is machine learning, not GenAI, for example. Auto-correct is too. Don't let them make you lose the thread. GenAI slop is slop.

This is the base level of hostility these pig motherfuckers need to be met with Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Hideo Kojima just retweets yaoi of his characters to his public main account

Remarkable. This piece, written by Jake Tapper, helps construct a pretext for Israel to resume full-scale operations in Gaza. Zero mention of the *multiple* attacks by Israeli forces over the past few days. Instead, he writes, “But so far, the tenuous ceasefire has held.”

Today in the US is #IndigenousPeoplesDay. Held in opposition to the federal govt holiday Columbus Day and celebrates Native American culture and resistance to colonialism as opposed to the genocide, murder, slavery and torture brought by Columbus shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/...

COINTELPRO NEVER ENDED

something to be said here about how the parasocial social media landscape wants people to act like robots and not be real people but im too lazy to type it up rn

As boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla prepared to set sail toward Gaza, a representative of Genoa’s Dockworkers’ Union declared that if anything happened to the flotilla, workers would “block everything.” When the flotilla was attacked, the reaction was swift: a 24-hour general strike was called.

All your protesting online, writing to your MPs, attending protests, sharing news, keeping the conversation going is making changes All your complaints against war, especially your tax funding it, govs selling arms…. Is turning the tides. Don’t stop. They can’t ignore the public forever.

I've seen sources refer to this individual as transmasc as well as MTF. I can't get a concrete answer either which also makes me think this was bullshit

Senate went nuclear and it barely made the news: apnews.com/article/sena...

coates is genuinely a generational writer

The people wondering "how could anyone who isn't a professional escape after a high profile daylight assassination" are forgetting two things: 1. Cops are bad at their jobs 2. The FBI used to be somewhat better at their jobs and were recently gutted by political layoffs

conservatives are increasingly going to deal with issues because they treat a man being murdered in broad daylight and a beloved character being recast with a black actor as the exact same level of severity. everything is a crisis and the only acceptable response is to "crush" the enemy

Because some people haven't heard it yet: PAYPAL IS NOT A BANK, DO NOT LEAVE MORE THAN A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS SITTING IN YOUR ACCOUNT AT ANY TIME. MOVE IT TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY. Paypal can and will close your account and steal all your money without warning. And have done MANY times.

Rock Looked Way Cooler Wet

Half of the field of sexology revolves around sexually harassing trans women, and the same half also revolves around making excuses for child abusers. Draw no conclusions whatsoever

MY GOAT IS WASHED 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Ngl I actually think it's cool to put effort into rebuilding a memorial for our murdered siblings that was removed by the state even if it's not with the best of tools. Also it's Florida so let's be real, they're gonna find a way to prosecute this. I think it's very sweet and that's okay sometimes

"I can excuse racism, but I draw the line at racism."

This is literally useless since you still have to buy the books to resell them

RT if you also wish ill upon JK Rowling.

if i was creating a Smithsonian of internet comedy this article would be treated as seriously as the invention of the electric lightbulb

the ai bubble is bursting soon thank god

still really wild to me that turn of the century britain was developing a kind of artistic and cultural soft power that was globally influential and then it all self destructed in favour of the mediocre self-disneylandification that is harry potter

I’d appreciate if you all used this form to ask for the things we asked for in the open letter regarding Palestinians on here

Was at the ball game the other day and I understand The Rizzler's popularity now. 1 out of every 4 kids looked like The Rizzler. Truly, he is the avatar of a generation.

What counts as crime is determined by those in power. Politicians always talk about "crime" in order to pave the way for more state violence. When we let them frame the discourse about crime and simply debate how much of it there is, we speed the arrival of autocracy. crimethinc.com/abovethelaw

oxycontin was so much less toxic than this shit

Dude surgically attached the boot to his tongue and still got kicked out

I have an unfathomable fear of Brandon Rogers and Avery Brooks working together on a piece of media

"agency says" oh they killed him

It’s only problematic through a capitalist lens -- to people who mistake community for a growth metric rather than a space for actual conversation.

Sleeping Man Flanked By Laptop, Phone, Earbuds Like Egyptian Pharaoh Buried With All His Treasures

I’m starting to unironically believe this

When people talk about how systemic and structural issues don't exist but the data all looks like this.

Why is it so hard for some people to be fans of a piece of media and still be critical of it? I’m not gonna name any specific piece of media but just know that this is a widespread problem and absolutely not tied to just one thing

In memory of Val Kilmer, let us all remember the time he had that shit on for the 1995 film “Heat”

#OtD 5 Aug 1939 56 socialists, including 13 women and girls, known as the 13 Roses, were executed en masse by the right-wing regime of general Francisco Franco. Commemorated here by a shirt made by a workers' co-op supporting grassroots unions in Asia: shop.workingclasshistory.com/products/t-s...
