It’s amazing how quickly Black women have been targeted by these laws and doubly so how little this factors into the analysis around the sexual and gender politics of this movement.

Doesn't the Golden Age feel good

lol any way 💅

Just when you thought this bullshit couldn't get any more reckless they decide it need an additional assclown and half the wheels.

fun fact: [guttural screaming]

The "in front of Zendaya" elevates this to art, for me

Y’all can talk about Platner’s problems without minimizing the fact that Mills, an actual elected official right now, refused to protect citizens from the gestapo, has had bad relations with Indigenous folks, and doesn’t show up for communities of color in Maine That’s Nazi shit too, you fucks

Wild that the state of California and UC Berkeley took one day to start taking Cesar Chavez’s name off of things, but we still have a sexual predator in the White House and no one seems to be able to do anything about it 🤷🏽‍♀️

NEW: When a Wisconsin mayor ended his city's contract with Flock (the AI surveillance company), he was stunned to see Flock refused to remove cameras. So he covered them with plastic bags. Now local activists are taking their fight to Madison & the Dane County sheriff, wanting more cameras gone.

There are just no words. More power to her. May she find peace as she continues to do her amazing work.

The people who cancelled Jimmy Kimmel after Charlie Kirk's assassination will now control television stations that reach 80% of Americans, twice that what was legally allowed before Trump's takeover. The state capture of network television is almost complete.

Every day Schumer fails to punish Fetterman for being full on MAGA is another drop in the bucket of evidence that the Democratic Establishment launders their controlled opposition through an always just enough number of convenient villains

I fucking knew it! I knew his ass felt too much like a 3rd party candidate pretending to be a Democrat and I'm fucking vindicated in my sentiments!

Everyone's a fucking grifter, man lmaoooooooooo

White supremacy demands gullibility.

Another way to look at this: Lithgow is fully aware of Rowling's anti-trans viewpoints and actions and still signed on anyway.

Everyone in tech has been using the same ten Microsoft Word templates for NDA, employment agreements, stock grants, and so on. Using AI for this is pointless, to @maxkennerly.bsky.social's point. You're not paying lawyers to draft agreements from scratch. You're paying them to protect your ass.

Pope Leo is the first Pope to have ever experienced the US healthcare system, so there's that

phew good thing yall haven’t spent the last fifty years turning us into a nation of shitty little porcine consumer piggies huh

Been thinking about this a lot. Surely at some point there’s no reason to buy more NVIDIA GPUs? Even if you somehow believe AI will be so big and so huge, where are you going to put them? A Foxconn warehouse for 2 years? Shit isn’t getting built!

Y’all…I just…the growing antisemitism on the left and the acceptance of it. The way people shrugged and ignored the synagogue attack. The way people made excuses. The endless Platner shit. The way y’all warp and defend Jew hate. The way you don’t even see yourselves doing it. It’s eating me alive.

Please soothe your soul with this footage of an enraged muppet being treated at the wild muppet center.

Folks, I'm probably gonna charge you so much more than $15,000 to fix what Claude fucks up. At your own risk.

I wrote up what the Iran War and crisis in the Strait of Hormuz means for the world. If this continues to spiral, we may be heading for a very different world than the one we currently inhabit. The last bit of normal may be gone for a generation. www.thedissident.news/the-last/

Even if the war stopped today, supplies will be disrupted for months. If it continues on a few more weeks, supplies will be disrupted for years. If it lasts for months, we can mark this as the end of fossil fuel hegemony in energy markets. In the meantime, millions will starve.

The most depressing thing about this particular dynamic is how utterly predictable it was in the immediate aftermath of the October 7th attacks, with Israel being handed an "excuse" to genocide the Palestinians and antisemites being handed an "excuse" to further demonize all Jewish people everywhere

I was raised by a weirdo so I have been concerned for most of my life that we're wasting a finite resource (helium) in fucking BALLOONS, when it's crucial to medical technology.

The EU may soon ban nudify apps after Grok emerged as a prime example of the dangers of an AI platform failing to block outputs that sexualized images of real people, including children.

As it sinks in this energy crisis is neither temporary nor contained, it’s worth repeating: The US can’t promise to stand down while Trump leads, bc the US can’t make promises, full stop. Trump is incapable of honoring promises. US media & Dems choose to pretend otherwise. Iran cannot afford to.

These billionaires are *terrified* of death, of aging, even if they're not at Blood Billionaire levels of desperation they are all frantically going through a mid-life crisis except with the resources of entire nations to toss at it.

Fetterman literally giving Mullin the key vote to be appointed will be something I suspect will be an issue if he runs for re-election.

"the combat in classic jrpgs is bad all you do 99% of combats is mash attack" yeah. its fucking chill bro. i dont want to have to pay attention and pull off epic clutch gamer wombo combos. i want to push button, defeat dude, get little xp treat, and occasionally enjoy some dialogue or cutscenes

Oh yeah these guys are definitely giving us a UBI for sure any day now

To put DLSS 5 in perspective: the demo required *TWO* RTX 5090s. Here's what you have to search for on eBay just to find a used one. You also have to disqualify "parts only" in the filters. Then there's two pages of zero feedback scams. The cheapest used RTX 5090 bids start around $3400.

The stars say the world is bad. As do the ships carrying oil. Oil tankers are in retrograde, this is particularly bad for Sagitarius.

This was spot on.

you know how we've spent literal decades wagging our fingers at the middle east and arguing that their religious governments intermingled faith with war and terrorism? anyhow.

these guys have taken magical thinking to a new level. "if we just say stuff, that makes it happen" is just how he dealt with covid. then we spent two years digging graves.

What I've noticed about the DLSS 5 discourse is that wherever you land on the matter, everybody hates "AI." If you feel like DLSS 5 isn't a big deal, if you feel like it's an abomination, if you're somewhere in the middle ... regardless, everybody universally hates "AI". That's significant.

look, no matter how you feel about the afroman case, we can agree this lawyer is bad at his job, right? he really couldn't think of a better argument than "if you say this is protected speech, then you are saying that this is protected speech. you want to live in that world? really makes you think."

Looks like Nvidia really messed up with this whole DLSS 5 garbage. You don't ever piss off the people who make the games. Source: insider-gaming.com/dlss-5-gamer...

try as companies might to project an illusion of business as usual onto this year's gdc, the reality of the show was anything but. game developers are feeling the squeeze from the industry's uncertain future and a country in rapid, violent decline. the anxiety was palpable. the vibes were off

Alongside this you should also message the congressional representative candidates for your district and get insight on their views regarding bills pertaining to internet surveillance, ID verification, and content censorship. Voting season is coming up so it's good to know what you're voting for.

I am going to become the joker. We've been screaming from the rooftops that this was never about sports or trans youth healthcare. Instead, we were ignored and browbeaten by a bunch of idiot centrists who took the concerns of people who want us eliminated in good faith. archive.ph/xgwCd

If they're robots you don't have to feel bad about blasting them with a shotgun.

PS the journalist who originally re-posted the original took it down, because some people actually have integrity.

wow we are arriving at the exact situation every single person imagined within one second of seeing their first robot dog
