Weird how when a Trump supporter, white supremacist, and reportedly, a former member of Turning Point USA shot up Florida State University (FSU) several months ago and killed two people - there wasn't the same national conversation about "political violence." www.mediaite.com/news/mass-sh...

An oldie that I've never posted here

Wow! So while I still wish this case would’ve gone to trial, and believe the amount given per work should have been EVEN higher, $1.5 billion in settlement AND the destruction of infringing datasets is still a fantastic start! Congratulations to all those involved as these things are not easy!

The truth is creatives don't actually create for themselves, no matter what we say. We create because something in the world moved us to pull the threads of creation and weave something beautiful we hope connects us to others. We create to live. To breathe. To exist. To commune. To share.

"This is an encroachment on everything we signed up for, and it feels like a violation.”

The Left needs to treat RFK Jr the way the right treated Dr. Fauci

The reason left-wing subcultures so often end up being extraordinarily unpleasant and dysfunctional is because they almost always devolve into people competing to perform the best and most stirring ritual recitation of the Consensus Correct Viewpoint on every single issue.

I really wish there were more refined filters and tag options folks could put up. Folks should be able to post damn near anything they want, I just want the option to also not be subjected to it just because I like NSFW content...

What do we expect from the guy who openly detects those in uniform. 'Suckers & losers', it's remarkable what supposed patriots overlooked to vote for thus guy.

If you're in the states, the Better Business Bureau is your friend

Why are so many AI people trying to get into hobbies they absolutely despise? "Fuck reading just give me the summary", Fuck art just make it for me", "I got ideas but fuck actually writing" like??? Maybe just find something you enjoy doing and do that?????

I hate that folks' rebuttal to, "I don't recognize this country anymore" w/ snarky, "It's always been this way." Nobody ever suggested America was a paradise, but it was for a long time a place that was getting better for everyone.

Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

I think one of the things people misunderstand about being anti-ChatGPT and related products is that they are being forced into institutions and other products and services in ways that affect all of our lives whether they work or *not* and we will all have to deal with the consequences

Remember how in 2015 the conspiratards thought Obama was going to use FEMA to set up concentration camps? Then Trump actually created them in Florida and El Salvador.

What if, maybe, someone actually just made a company that catered specifically to NSFW content and products? What's stopping this from happening?

So I have been playing the indie game 'Slay the Princess' by @blacktabbygames.com it is an absolute work of art. Between its charming visual direction, great voice acting and brilliant writing I went in expecting this spooky choose your own adventure and walked away deeply moved by it all.

Former National Guard Vice Chief Major General Randy E. Manner says deploying the Guard to D.C. will ruin how the average American views the military.

There has never been a better and easier time in history to learn how to draw or paint. There are thousands, millions of tutorials for every art style. Free apps. Cheap tablets. Pencil and paper. Videos, text, audio, if you wanna learn how to do art the only barrier is your fear of failure.

Ya know, I'll be pretty pissed if the Democrat who runs for office isn't running on a literal revenge platform. It 2as a mistake for Obama not to hold members of the Bush Admin responsible for lying us into Iraq, and it was a mistake for Biden to not hold Trump accountable when he could.

As someone who enjoys NSFW content, I follow a lot of artists who also draw stuff that's just not my jam. Do I leave negative comments? No, I'm not the center of the world, I'm not their rich patron, I just scroll on. I do wish there were better tagging systems, though.

Dune, 1965

So, I suspect there is a growing number of... inauthentic accounts here. Pretty much every follow I'm getting is by accounts who have engaged with none of my stuff nor have I theirs.

Okay, so I have been noticing a lot of 'Blue whatever' following this account. They have engaged with none of my posts, but it seems to happen in waves. Hard not to see them as pretty sus...

It's frustrating that when I engage with a single piece of content on Youtube that is remotely sympathetic towards men, I am immediately bombarded by anti-feminist farmed content. No wonder young men are shift rightward, they're getting this shit crammed into their eyeballs everyday.

Anyway, here is an old drawing of some mermaids

I really do not understand the flirtation with Fascism. This was a failed ideology 80 years ago led by a bunch of losers, and it has not aged well. All of its adherents since have been grifters and bottom feeders to dumb to realize they've been conned. Make it make sense.

I honestly think this is how it's gonna go. Commercial GAI remains unprofitable, its advocates over promise, underdeliver, and most models can not survive without ignoring copyright protections.

It has a very real chance of failing—and *even if it passes with changes* it still has to go BACK to the Senate to get voted on AGAIN. And it barely made it through the first time This thing is way more killable than you’d think and the longer we can drag out the process the more killable it gets
