It's almost like you never apologise to Trump at all. Appeasement never works, never has and never will.

Artifacts of the Quest to See Your GBA Screen

So apparently Metroid Prime 4 is bad because [checks notes] human characters are shown talking? Istg ever since the Switch 2 dropped it's like people on the internet have been looking for any reason to say the next Nintendo game to come out is shit. It feels extremely performative.

Honestly it's entirely on brand for the inventors of what we now call Mar-a-lago face to be part of MAGA fascist propaganda.

Humans will at some point discover that the conquest of death, or at least the appearance of having conquered death, is worse than death itself.

Where was this Kamala Harris in October 2024?

But you know they're going to though

On the one hand YP's biggest transphobe is gone. On the other hand, YP are still going to be irrelevant.

It's kinda hard to believe that in just a year Sydney Sweeney went from being performatively drooled over by anyone with a column to being so irrelevant her latest film flops. I guess it just goes to show that there was nothing particularly interesting about her, plus her being a Nazi didn't help.

A bit of an update on those petitions we all signed. The UK Parliament has decided it will debate them after all. The “Do not introduce Digital ID cards” debate is set for 8th December, and the “Repeal the Online Safety Act” debate is set for 15th December.

I'll say this MAGA certainly aren't acting in a way that signifies strength and triumphalism. Quite the opposite actually. This is a weak and incompetent movement that is heavily reliant on projecting force and intimidation to stay in power, and that's not going to work for them for long.

JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.

Utterly amazing that Disney have implode the literal core premise of their suit against Midjourney just to make a tiny bit more profit from subscriptions.

Disney was in the middle of a massive lawsuit that had the opportunity to end all of the AI companies once and for all... but have suddenly pivoted to "okay, fine, you can mine and devalue our IP... but only if you're a Disney+ subscriber."

It's actually genuinely astonishing that Republicans are now so dug in on defending Trump that they've turned into embarrassing Facebook ancaps.

Roald Dahl wasn't wrong about how ugly thoughts will show on a person's face. (He was a rather unpleasant and hateful person himself, so I guess he'd know lol).

Or we could not build them and still have a planet to live on. That's also an option.

I haven't seen the special but like, are Democrats really so desperate to avoid actually listening to their younger progressive voters that they're gonna get all their messaging advice from stand-up comedy specials they probably didn't even watch properly?

This is gonna fail because everyone who used to use Vine when they were teens is now old enough to recognise how cringey it was.

We really need to unlearn the idea that tech can solve everything, and do it fucking fast too before AI destroys what's left of the NHS

Of course Russia is involved. That's probably the least surprising bit about the whole sorry saga, but it does add a new layer to why Republicans are so determined to stop the Epstein files from being released.

I'd just like to point out that Charlotte Nichols supported Corbyn twice, supported Rebecca Long-Bailey in 2020. Labour's moralistic and exploitative authoritarianism is a rot that extends across all wings of the party.

Republicans when Congress just now swore in Adelita Grijalva:

Brb I'm gonna let myself have a splitting migraine to own the libs

most authoritarian British government of the 21st century and I am not joking

In other countries, feminism fights to empower women to make their own choices. Here in Britain, old boomer feminists fight to subject women to one of the most absurd censorship regimes in the democratic world to keep them from making their own choices.

So even the "it saves money" argument for AI was bullshit, as we all should've expected. OpenAI is just a pit in which the "sensible grown ups" of capitalism have all decide to throw their money away.

Damn Kerrang really fell off huh

I love how what we got at launch day was a giant expensive paperweight with basically the same games as the PS4

Love how Labour just doesn't care about literally anything except holding onto power

Ngl it would be pretty funny if Starmer resigned now and let Wes Streeting take the fall for the humiliating defeat Labour are going to have in May just out of pure spite.

The fact that you have someone as right-wing and establishmentarian as Seth Moulton on the same side of this issue as Graham Platner is proof enough that Schumer fucked up royally and it's only a matter of time before he's out.

Or they could just, you know, not do that? We're just gonna fucking laugh at their ridiculous attempts to control VPN use too, especially if they're apparently using AI for this which means you just know this isn't going to work.

"actually every game dev uses AI now" no, just you

“Content” is a corpo-brain term, makes me cringe when I hear it in the wild. You don’t make “content”, you make ART! You write STORIES. Its your WORK (and often play too)! “Content” is the noise you flick through when trying to find a SHOW you like, don’t cheapen your work comparing it to SLOP. 😤

To UK folk. If any MP such as Streeting tries telling you that privatisation of the NHS is the only way to save it, tell him to get stuffed. Below is an example of how much people are expected to pay for ANNUAL health insurance. $2,753 PER MONTH! I don't even earn that.

Oh do fuck off with this shit. The left is still here, it's called the Green Party.

Wait so there's actually a trend where women try to look like they're going to Mar-a-lago? Wtf is wrong with America lol

"In an internal memo from September, CEO Sam Altman said that OpenAI’s “audacious long-term goal is to build 250 gigawatts of capacity by 2033.” If Altman achieves this goal, OpenAI will need almost exactly as much electricity as India’s 1.5 billion people" Great @truthdig.com piece on chips ->

Amazing that right-wing Democrats are this dumb

going on twitter now is like the dark world part of link to the past, where the shape of things is roughly the same only now instead of the friendly villagers there's some demihuman freak snarling at you going "welcome to the village of assholes!! we hate you!!" also the trees shoot bombs now

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

It’s disturbing and discomforting to examine but there are several anti-phone and anti-social media initiatives weaponizing murders and suicides of teens, leveraging grieving parents, and exaggerating or inventing causation to try and limit speech online and restrict tech freedoms

Kind of a pleasant surprise considering Alito hinted the court would go after Obergefell v. Hodges. At least we can hold out hope that the Trump regime won't be able to dismantle everything.

WE'RE ALL TRYING TO FIND THE GUY WHO DID THIS!

I mean this is just what happens when the British left didn't do the smart thing and immediately switch to the Greens en masse as soon as Starmer took power. What's happening now with Your Party is a consequence of your stupidity and your attempts to keep a moribund vision of socialism alive.

Wow so Zarah's just as crooked as any other politician huh lol
