REMEMBER: All the "Don't use em-dashes" "don't use rule of three" advice because it makes your writing "look like AI" is because they stole actual writers work, and their "predict the next thing" stuff just simulates what WE FUCKING DO. Keep writing well. Use every style and trick you have. Fuck AI.

Doing art badly is good and sacred

feeling sad about gen AI. wrote a very corny poem for Valentine’s Day in iambic pentameter ABAB and was pretty proud of it and I feel like in five years no one will believe in actions like that and everyone will assume it was AI. any way of expressing cheesy care is made impersonal and impossible.

Look at Alan. Look how cool he is. This could be you.

i often think about this review

MAHA: Eating a giant steak cooked in butter alongside beef tallow fries and washing it down with coffee spiked with butter Not MAHA: Clean air, clean water, health insurance, vaccines, disease monitoring, scientific research, food assistance, food safety, bike lanes

RIP Bud Court—Harold and Maude was extremely important to me as an insufferable goth child.

power transformers mentioned in halftime show ⚡️

thank you bad bunny for highlighting the importance of critical power distribution infrastructure bsky.app/profile/cost...

I will eventually shut up about this but Bad Bunny’s use of the power lines is an outstanding example of how to communicate about climate and energy issues. Not about who is the smartest nerd in the room and spewing numbers but about people’s actual lives. Genius.

they're calling it the dunkin donuts ad that single-handedly lost new england the superbowl

Every Super Bowl ad is for the door in the forest. It’s annoying. “You must walk through the door.” Yeah thanks, I know that already. I dream of the door every night

Fuck AI, fuck ICE, and long live a free Puerto Rico.

call me "woke" or whatever but I think the Superbowl should have less football and more dancing latinas

Simply on a live performance stagecraft-design-camerawork-logistics-direction level, this is ASTOUNDING.

so far tonight bad bunny has sung more reggaeton songs than the patriots and seahawks combined

the magic of the Muppets is that there are two fourth walls. they constantly break the one that reminds the audience they are performers. they NEVER break the one that reminds the audience they are puppets. this dynamic is the key to their entire comedy style

do you think LeBron James has a Real ID and if so did he have to go to a DMV in person to get it

Our capitalists don’t envision automation as a bridge to human prosperity, otherwise they’d advocate for the types of fundamental societal changes that would make that possible such as UBI or investment in infrastructure through taxing their income. Their vision for automation is a robot with a whip

"We would have lost so much if we'd driven him away" is the justification. But we lost all those girls. We lost the women they would have become. We lost the work they would have done. Why was his future work so much more valuable than theirs?

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

homemade pupusas for one year anniversary with my girlfriend were a massive success

I just thought everyone should see this

I hadn’t known this. Two men who were accused of sexual abuse on the Shitty Media Men document that I created back in 2017 reached out to Michael Wolff for help as they looked to sue me, and Wolf forwarded their concerns to Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein offered to help. www.jmail.world/thread/EFTA0...

the Blind Pew scene from Muppet Treasure Island is the absolute peak of cinema

This ship came from Oakland

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

The way to reconcile this is their aspiration was always to put down a slave revolt, not fight in one. bsky.app/profile/osit...

The last few years have seen the largest wave of immigration in American history. All those images we carry in our heads about people arriving at Ellis Island — we just surpassed that. Crime went down. Real wages went up. This is a fake problem. Enough is enough.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1765

Change one letter in Skeletor's name and it becomes Skeleton

every seat in a movie theater should have an "I have to pee" button and if enough people press it they should be able to pause the movie

we're getting all the downsides of cyberpunk (social alienation, ruthless hyper capitalism, digital mass surveillance state) but none of the promised upsides (cheap street food, cool jackets, super drugs that make you really fast and strong before they kill you)

SEEING EVERYONE POSTING ABOUT FOOTBALL: boring. who could possibly still care about this ME TYPING UP ANOTHER POST ABOUT BASKETBALL: i’m sure that everyone will both understand and like this

it's crazy that there's isopod species spanning from the deep ocean to arid deserts while still looking basically the same. this is a message against fast fashion trend chasing. find a look that is truly timeless and for all locations, like the isopod body plan

"we don't want people thinking Democrats are for open borders" I am! who gives a shit!!! my life has been immeasurably improved by the presence of immigrants in my community, regardless of their status, there is literally no downside there! why would I give a shit!!!!

a queer woman lightly mocked an ICE officer so they shot her wife right in front of her. now they’re trying to justify it by making it a capital crime to mock them in many ways that’s a core tenet of right-wing ideology: Lesser People should be forbidden (by force if necessary) to laugh at you

The thing I always come back to is how many people never despaired against longer odds, and how arrogant it would be to put myself above them.

I refuse to become numb to this. There is no number of people they can kill and brutalize that will make me accept it. There is no level of monstrosity they can achieve that will make me fear them. There are many, many more of us than them. They will not win.

Steph Curry Finally Finishes Eating Mouthguard

Reading this screenshot post last night and then waking up to read Ms. Ng's unfortunate experience that confirms it is 👀

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

In an 1829 letter, Simon Bolívar (VZ’ George Washington) wrote: “The United States appear to be destined by Providence to plague America with misery in the name of liberty.”

it is incredible that the entire high level legal apparatus of the United States is "anything that helps people is impossible, anything that kills people is permitted"
