Yes!!! Ugh!!!!! marcusolang.substack.com/p/im-kenyan-...

Please. Please how do I get off these fucking democrat campaign text harassment lists. I WILL GIVE THEM MY FIRST BORN CHILD IF IT MEANS I WILL NEVER SEE THE WORDS "CHIP IN" AGAIN

"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

If anyone has a few extra bucks burning a hole in their pocket, please help one of my favorite authors escape mandatory Christmas (her first one after losing her husband). She deserves All The Good Things!

Idea: an owl rescue and sanctuary called Cahoots

But the memes are somehow still worth it right gang

“Man was begot by mutual assistance, anger from mutual destruction. One seeks to help, the other seeks to harm. Human life rests upon kindness and concord bound together not by terror, but by love reciprocated.” - Seneca, “On Anger”, 1st Century A.D.

This is the reasons "I just use it for brainstorming and organizing my thoughts" is sad to me. The point of brainstorming and organizing your thoughts is making connections and thinking of other things as you do it, not just having the slop machine spit them back out at you. bsky.app/profile/kibb...

I would ban development of all movies based on existing IP's/franchises for exactly 5 years just to see what would happen 👀

This made me feel better about how stressed I've been even though we're "doing well" - justified in my anxiety. But it also made me feel even more anxious and angry, because I'm justified in feeling as stressed as I am, and there's not a lot I can do about it!

Annoying my cats with knitting #knitsky #knitting

Was in film school with grandiose ideas about being a director. Saw a class learning how to use these enormous, scary and complicated looking film cameras. Immediately decided I had to learn it. It was magic. Lighting was magic. Lenses were magic. Letting someone else direct actors was magic. 🎥

ACAB means ACAB, and that includes the cringe police

Norway you have outdone yourself, this is incredible #MissUniverse2025 #MissUniverse #Worf #Antedians #handsome

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features." There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

i looked at this earlier and the article is very careful not to say what actually happened but if you know history and you know this administration it is impossible not to assume programatic eugenics and anyone involved in programatic eugenics should not be allowed to see the sun ever again

I got to “honored to be your ancestor” and started sobbing. I don’t even know what to say. It’s cliche to say that someone was a light, but Alice was, in both the sense of being a warm glow to find your way home and bright sun to burn the fuck out of the unwary. I hope we can honor her legacy.

OpenAI's Sora video generator places 3 watermarks on its AI generated videos: the top-left or top-right corner, the center-right, and the bottom-left corner. Each of these Facebook videos has 3 caption overlays which just happen to be placed in these 3 locations.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Remember that while food banks welcome donations of food, they prefer $$$$$$$. They have deals with grocery stores and suppliers. You can only buy one dollar's worth of food for one dollar, but they can buy several dollars' worth. So don't, like, buy food to donate it, just give 'em the dough.

Please please please New York, please elect Zohran Mamdani

If your democrat rep is on this list send an email or call. KOSA is real bad. It will be used by the current admin for mass censorship.

I’ve set up a recurring donation with mine. Even $5 a month can help a lot—usually way more than we, who don’t buy in bulk, could buy in equivalent.

“Fuck AI” — Guillermo del Toro 🎥 Vanity Fair

Bullshit. I can look normal during a migraine or an ovarian cyst. I laughed with my radiologist during a lumbar puncture. I didn’t wince or take breaks during tattoos near bone. Etc etc Fuck this and fuck AI, doctors already don’t believe my pain tolerance.

The man who made movie poster art, well, *an art* has passed: the great Drew Struzan. Loved his work. Let's not forget how he was tasked to make a poster for The Thing in hours knowing only the premise of the original 1951 film. The paint was STILL WET when he handed it in. May he rest in peace.

Oh, man, Drew Struzan's departed us. You know all the hits, of course; the man was a legend. Here's a rejected (!?!?) poster he did for STAR TREK V.

In honour of spooky month, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand. “The studio has notes”

‘They Live’ and ‘Josie & The Pussycats’ double feature at the New Bev. Fucking BRILLIANT programming

Reading this anecdote and begging, BEGGING people who are not in creative fields to wrap their brains around the fact that figuring one's way through those stuck transitions *IS THE FUN PART*.

Instant surrender

Just when I began looking into creating an iOS shortcut to auto-respond “STOP” to the onslaught of political texts I get every day, the bots started using the word “QUIT” to opt out. Honestly this should be illegal

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

Stuffed grape leaves, fresh french fries and and Diet Coke is the perfect meal

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice. Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT." IT IS ART. YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.

Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches

what can i say? i’m good at what i do

"They're politicians, what are they supposed to do? Literally fight in the streets?" Unashamed to say this made me cry.

reposting with alt text because this feels incredibly significant. the right-wing disinfo machine means a lot of the people grieving Charlie Kirk never heard any of the things he said that would have tarnished his brand as Guy Who Just Wants to Have Dialogue Across the Aisle

This is a cool bit of news to get while I am in the middle of re-reading @diane.dianeduane.com’s “A Wizard of Mars” www.reuters.com/science/nasa...

The morning’s bright the sky is blue and we have a teaser trailer! WAKE UP DEAD MAN the new Benoit Blanc mystery, in theaters Thanksgiving and on Netflix 12/12

More Sam Kirk and his mustache please. Maybe give him a dog. And a spin off show

Fuck

Pierre is here and he says that you're fantastic and that he believes in you.
