"I know I wasn’t alone in my top priority being the lack of craft store gold belching a gleaming brine over the full oval office."

I don't know, I'm perimenopausal and I've never done a fascism so it's probably something else about her specifically, random person on the internet.

preemptively annoyed that everyone is going to hate the wuthering heights movie for the wrong reasons. it won't be bad bc it's horny :( it'll be bad bc her films uncritically reproduce the paranoias of the entitled, using surface-level deviance to deliver frank conservatism :(

This is because a statistical model of word frequency is not a useful tool for modeling the complex interactions of the human body

for my latest @us.theguardian.com talked to teens leading and joining anti-ICE walkouts from TX to MD to WI. one NYC teen: "I feel scared [of ICE] every day... But I’m not going to let that stop me, because bravery is just the positive way to say you’re scared, and I’d rather be brave than scared."

All the reports showing it either decreases productivity or increases workload or both aside, ethics of incorporating The Great Plagiarist Bot into a university curriculum aside, destroying the planet aside: students do not know enough about anything to even use genAI for its theoretical potential.

Colleges need to stop trying to teach students how to use AI. Even in the theoretical use cases, genAI requires the expertise to know the process and outcome WITHOUT IT to be able to use it for shortcuts and then THOROUGHLY vet the product. EXPERTISE. Students don't have that, they're students.

It's actually remarkably easy to not ever use ChatGPT.

Great news, son! The Turning Point USA All-American Halftime Show Is On!

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

Macbeth: SHIT

I really can’t watch any of these ice flip videos without thinking about how a white man is being rewarded for accomplishing what a Black woman was punished for doing 30 years ago Surya Bonaly was an incredible athlete and she was treated like shit for it

Someone is going to write a dissertation about this half time show and I will read it.

Bro literally came out and said “it’s our labor and culture that has always made the Americas great: y’all are just the beneficiaries of slave owners from sea to shining sea,” and I am here for it.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

Brad Pitt really did just get away with being a domestic abuser scott free

generative AI has become widely available in the summer of 2022 and entered mainstream in 2023 people are working themselves up in a frenzy, convinced they're utterly helpless without software younger than still-fresh canned tuna. we have been making art for at least 50,000 years, get a grip

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Palestinian Uncles doing freestyle poetry battles coming with some of the hardest lines I’ve heard in a long time.

An opinion I pretty firmly hold is that everyone should make a song, paint a painting, act in something, and write a book even if all of those things end up being objectively terrible

man I’m sorry to be all corny here but when I see a “the city is beautiful! There’s more to it than homeless people!” I gotta say you know who’s also beautiful? People who have no place to live & are trying to get by in a system that has turned its back on them & if you don’t see that that’s on you

me, librarian: I think information should be organized and structured logically so that searches are high in precision and recall tech industry, 2000: nope, keyword searching and opaque relevance rankings are what you’ll get … tech industry, 2026: now you’ll just get fake hallucinatory text

If we wanna talk about how interactions with AI bots reflect upon us as people maybe we should talk about what it means about you if you enjoy conversation where the other party gives you sycophantic praise every single reply

Hot take, but no one should be using ChatGPT and any AI products in general.

A small but very deep thing that bothers me about generative AI as a shortcut to practice and work and skill is the basic assumption that it’s impossible to take pleasure in a creative pursuit that you aren’t very good at and I assure you that is not the case

Q: Why will football be featured during the Bad Bunny concert?* A: The Bad Bunny concert is fantastic exposure for the NFL and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to put the game of American football in front of fans of the biggest musical artist in the world.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

I’m sorry but what did libertarians think that the anonymous money laundering racism coin that you could only functionally use for illicit activity was doing other than this, exactly

Today is the start of #BlackHistoryMonth in the US. It is also the anniversary of #OtD 1 Feb 1960 in Greensboro, NC, when four Black college students refused to move from a Woolworth's lunch counter after they were denied service stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1096...

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Happy Caturday from Garfunkel, the bestest orange boy. 🐈

“Kamala warned us” Fuck you Palestinians warned you Black people warned you The Left warned you Half the international community warned you The US slide into fascism has been long and slow. Many have been falsely imprisoned or killed by it over decades. It just finally came for you.

A low hanging fruit idea for Democrats: champion creating a new federal law enforcement agency dedicated to stopping child sex abuse. Call it the Terminate Rape of Underage Minors Protection act or TRUMP act

the eastern conference is a mess. why can't the toronto raptors win it? www.theringer.com/2026/01/30/n...

"Ethical AI" does not exist. There is no reality where you can have generative AI that's "ethically trained". There are ZERO AI models trained ethically, and there will never be any. The term has been made up by people who want a pass on using AI. You don't get that pass, slop peddlers.

the primary blocker to UBI is the puritan belief that humanity is so sinful and depraved that it should not be permitted personhood unless it becomes 'civilised' that's how liberal social policy ended up asserting that helping people would harm them but hurting people would help them

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

Fuck all the way off, and then fuck off a little further, just keep going and fucking off until you're completely out of fucking off space and then fuck off just a tiny bit further.

Using gen. A.I. to make slop imagery to go with any anti-fascist statement isn't any sort of flex as it was developed and promoted by the billionaires pushing fascism. Just fucking stop using it.

One thing that is true in this age of "AI" is that authenticity is going to be prized more than ever before. A single hand-scrawled sign is going have more impact than the smoothest "AI" image because the people seeing it knows it comes from someone's brain, not a tuned algorithm.

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images. This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

"There’s an extremely hurtful narrative going around that my product, a revolutionary new technology that exists to scam the elderly and make you distrust anything you see online, is harmful to society."

Could not possibly agree more. AI doesn’t just destroy our physical environment; it also destroys our mental space. Don’t use the fascist enabling control machine.
