This is a decision that can only happen when the people who founded the company lost sight of the reason they established this tier / how they themselves started. The whole reason that simulcasting+free ad-supported tiers were innovated in the first place was to deter people from pirating the shows!

Yes. And translators, badly paid, have been trying to make people aware of this, but they have only a small platform. Need writers and readers to be aware and speak out. All my foreign language contracts going forward will stipulate that a real person translates.

When I teaching the Holocaust I note the Holocaust museum’s definition of a concentration camp is a prison whose inmates are denied due process. These are by definition concentration camps.

Deerfoxes are popping up everywhere! 'Tis the season, indeed. #DogsInAntlers

Fund science, not war. Fund healthcare, not war. Fund clean energy, not war. Fund childcare, not war. Fund education, not war. Fund literally anything else but war.

The right has a well-organized, well-funded media ecosystem for grievance politics, a "this thing upsets me" to "hm, protocols of the elders of zion you say? Sign me up" pipeline. Literally autoplay basically anything on youtube, then wait for blood libel to show up

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

It's important to note for the consultant people: Kat is tied for first place, she's raised more money in this race than anyone else, and she hasn't used Twitter in months. It's a website filled with racist AI snuff films and it's rigged against you specifically. There's no good reason to use it.

Sounds like they're trying to Bari the story.

This was a very green year for me art-wise, maybe some of these complimentary colors can inform next year's art. Inspired by @samanthamash.bsky.social's and @flaroh.bsky.social's pantone posts.

hard to fully articulate how much this image has changed the way my partner and i talk about food

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

TOMORROW IS THE WINTER SOLSTICE AND Y'ALL KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. It is time for the women (defined broadly) to hunt the Year King through the woods and tear him apart with their bare hands!

personally think any ai use at any stage in the creation process should be criticized so companies don't get comfortable with even the smallest amount of it in their works

Chicago is having none of this administration's BS.

shutting the fuck up may be free, but it isn’t easy so make sure you PRACTICE

Generative AI is also causing me more work as a college professor, in teaching, research, and admin work.

LRP: Word of mouth is such a powerful tool to help out authors you like for free. I personally don't often bother reading reviews when looking for books to read, but I almost always pick up a book if a friend recommended it. Or someone with similar tastes to me says they liked it in a conversation.

We may uh want to have a conversation about the fact that the majority of popular gay male romance is written by and for women

This is dead serious, do not do this. It opens up a ton of liability and actively decreases the likelihood (or fully eliminates) that what you want or hope to happen will happen.

You absolutely love to see it. Indies keep my heart beating.

Quantic Foundry does legit trustworthy analysis of gamer behaviour, and these survey results are shockingly negative toward genAI, to the point where I’m more hopeful that data driven mobile and AAA backpedals on their uses.

I am very sad that the days are going to start getting longer soon, so here are 10 US Kindle copies of Peter S. Beagle's classic The Last Unicorn, which is a very, very good book, with depths and metaphors and laughs and sadness. It is a beautiful book. #KindleBookGiveaway

Speaking of comics with girls I made one!! You should check it out "The Sea in You" a.co/d/cwFggPw

reminder:

I keep wanting to say something, and I keep not knowing what to say. The trans community does not harm cis people by existing. They are just trying to live their lives, same as anyone else. That life doesn't look exactly like mine; my life doesn't match anyone else's. That's okay.

If it isn't completely obvious... TRANS WOMEN ARE WOMEN. TRANS MEN ARE MEN. TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS. Do not tell me that my friends and adopted family do not have the right to exist. I will fight you.

The end goal is eugenicist. RFK and his ilk know that this will make vaccines more expensive and time-consuming — and therefore marginalized children are most likely to fall through the cracks. This is about killing kids who aren't born to privilege. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

I am going to run something set in the 1970s just so I can explain to my 20-something players that the reason their characters don't mind the clouds of cigarette smoke is because the miasma of tetra-ethyl lead killed their sense of smell.

This is Boggart [Bog for short]. She is 5'1" and has every disease. #pathfinder

furious thread that every politician in the country should be forced to read and then literally eat. print it out, make them read it and eat it. then maybe they'll remember.

trans kids should have access to healthcare. same as cis kids. ANYTHING that their parents and doctors think would have a positive impact. Not complicated.

One of my favourite drawings from a few years back ☺️

“Love it or hate it it’s here to stay” is a crazy thing to keep saying about a technology. If people don’t like using something it doesn’t have to stay we’re not talking about bad weather here
