"We need new regulations" My friends... They don't even enforce the regulations we have now. Laws & rules don't mean shit if we lack the raw POWER to enforce them. We need entrenched leftist power that always supercedes that of our enemies. Otherwise it's right back to being capitalist playthings.

The number of smart people I see identify the problems with our society and economy, but... all they propose is rolling back the clock to an earlier period of capitalism...? Folks, how do you expect us to just magically not end up right back where we are now? Best case scenario!

Stepfather (1987) was an excellently done horror! The only lackluster part was the score, which felt very low budget. But everything else, especially the acting, punched far above its weight. I think if it had a more memorable score it might've been a far better remembered horror film.

And how would that show appreciation? Also do you even copy edit this shit anymore Facebook?

lol @ these guys disgusted to find that abortion is "very widely accepted", and divorce rates are "extremely high". Didn't do any research before uprooting your whole life, huh?

PlayStation is deleting 551 purchased movies from its customers' accounts, reminding us nothing digital is ever truly ours https://kotaku.com/playstation-store-movies-digital-studio-canal-terminator-2000711013

I'm doing a book launch for Hell, Inc. Afterlife-time Employment at Audrey's Books in Edmonton on July 9th! Come out for a discussion about the book and creative process with me and Adriean Koleric, followed by a signing! audreys.ca/events/56626... #yeg

Just a heads up, if you're not sure if a food photo is GenAI or not, if it makes you feel a little uncomfortable and like the photo is sexual but in a way you can't quite pin down? Yea probably. I guess it was trained off food porn and carl's jr. ads.

I just don't know why, if you were creating a fake recipe FB page using GenAI, and a fake chef using GenAI, you would choose the name Ron BILE 🤢🤮

Don't worry Pope Leo, I'm gonna write lots more smut

I hope they called him Dr. Cosmo after that

Tim Sweeney: people won't buy a game with an AI disclosure, which puts teams not using AI at an unfair disadvantage. it's impossible to make a game without using this service that didn't exist 4 years ago that's why no video games existed before 2022. every town needs to become one giant data center

> [Tim Sweeney] refers to an example of making a flower pot model for a game. "The value is not in creating a perfect flower pot. It will be an absolute folly to spend a million dollars creating a flower pot... It's one flower pot, Michael. What could it cost, one million dollars?

Name a movie that flopped at the box office but is actually great #FilmSky

We've got capitalists burning us all alive, governments refusing to do anything about it, and news media making it seem like it's fun to be a frog in boiling water.

Imagine if an elected official promised things would get better for a rural area and then the government actually set about making that come true? This is one reason why the 4 year 'two' party volley system is failing us. Even if someone gets in that promises it, that takes more than a term.

Classic dictatorship stuff from the US.

"I don't want to see AI content anywhere, I have no respect for the people who use it, and I cannot wait for all these companies to run out of money." Preach, Drew. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yx7b...

What exactly is traditional about a Catholic rejecting the divine authority of the Pope?

"...Shein and Temu have become big players by manufacturing cheap products in China and then posting them directly to consumers..." This accidentally let's slip the true problem for our ruling class: China dared cut out the western middlemen who took the lion's share of profits for doing nothing.

Got a new Dell Laptop at work & it comes with a COPILOT KEY next to the right Alt button. I thought OK, I can surely disable this key or remap it to Ctrl. Oh my friends, no. I was foolish. Searching for help came across this, Dell agents aren't even allowed to discuss remapping the copilot key.

I remember getting a lot of flak years ago for saying that: no, actually, the priority isn't pressuring everyone to vote. Because if you don't know or care, what fucking value does it give to society to vote? This is just giving tech billionaires your vote.

Quote the greatest song lyrics ever written. I'll start: I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. And his hair was perfect.

Ocarina of Time was the story of a boy forced to sacrifice his youth and grow up far too soon for the sake of helping others. And for that reason: yes I was one of those who teared up at the teaser. This game hit me at the perfect time in my life. A masterpiece that claimed a spot in my heart.

The original Beatles version came on while soaking my agonies in the tub. A great time.

This was the best Rune Factory/Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley style game I've ever played. A real treat.

I know that being an author has always had moral quandaries but fuck in a time of GenAI it's even worse. I'm constantly like 'is this reviewer using GenAI? Should I promote in FB groups that allow GenAI? How to word this so I don't sound like AI?'

Westerners: "It's so creepy how often Muslims reference Allah..." Westerners every five seconds: "Oh my God!"

Quandary: I need a citation that isn't a social media post for each of these claims but I'm not falling for this alt-right talking point clickbait.

It's always weird seeing readers say they want authors to use simpler words, because I prefer it when I feel like the author is just a little smarter than me, a little more knowledgeable about language and the subject matter.

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.

Is this unpopular? Who on earth likes what commercial strawberries have become? Bloated, shiny, voids of flavour.

Another one bites the dust. Nintendo is the only console maker worth a damn now. I will give up on new games entirely before I support this genAI shit.

"You won't even make it back to your fucking country," said the master of making a deal.

Great stuff. Really needed the cheapest veggies to go up in price at this exact moment in history.

With a looming surge of battery waste incoming, China has made a law to ensure manufacturers are responsible for tracking down and recycling waste batteries. Not consumers. It's estimated this will roughly double recycling rates to over 93%.

Any skill you don't continually practice, is a skill that degrades. Extremely predictable.

How'd our property gain 50% value in 4 years? I'm doing everything in my power to lower it!

It's Juneteenth. Post your favorite black fictional character.

In fact I'm doing a miserable job of maintaining the property!

There's a foot of height difference between me and @jmkeep.bsky.social But you wanna guess who is the gentle one our dog doesn't flinch from and who's the one he runs away from when it's time to put on his harness because they're rough?

We ended up doing The Trial and Citizen Kane 😅 Thinking was still on the table but apparently not reading.

Watching Orson Welles' "The Trial" and it's so damn good. A dreamlike allegory of the existence of a closeted gay man.

Life is about the journey, the struggles we face and what that means to us as an individual and a collective. If it was just about the end goal we'd all off ourselves.

According to the Municipal Assessment Agency, our property value has increased by 50% over the last four years despite changing absolutely nothing.

That film was masterful. Very likely Welles' best. I could say so much more, but if dream-like narratives or the subject matter appeal at all, you should just watch it.
