The Sora AI thing is proof of something very important: The technology itself is useless without the ability to use the likenesses of real, living, unpredictable people, and the art they create. And the only way to get those likenesses or that art is to summarily steal it.

"I didnt see it " Ok well it still fucking happened you piece of shit So tired of these fucking spineless dipshits hiding behind a Bible

Her campaign's been a carbon copy of the establishment dems idea of what will work and it is insanely frustrating watching them spend a record amount of money on the most boring, uninspiring candidate possible to throw this race away. She cant even show real fire about her private info being leaked!

This entire race has been the NJ Democratic machine trying to make Sherrill happen without, you know, trying to make their case to those pesky voters.

The best part of this whole thing is that Dana also thought this was a fucking stupid tweet (his reaction in the beginning is to @petegain.es message showing my tweet asking him to read it the Slurp Juices tweet) and never liked NFTs

States that didn’t vote for the president—which includes ones that pay the most in federal taxes and effectively subsidize the rest—will have federal outlays unconstitutionally canceled, in violation of law duly passed by reps from those states, among others. Taxation without representation, no?

Stephen Miller wouldn't survive a Lamb of God moshpit, nevermind a war zone

Never should've clamped down on the "weird" language, man

I still can't believe this exists because @dansbadsky.bsky.social @petegain.es and I paid for a Cameo lol

Why do you think I took you to see all those Police Academy movies?? For fun!? Well i didn't hear anybody laughing! Did you!?

people in rural communities will not have to worry about this much longer because all the hospitals will be closed, and all the rural doctors will disappear because of the H-1B $100,000 visa fee

beginning of this clip is interesting in that she takes a big sip of steaming hot piss

He takes her getting heated and saying she disagrees with him about a GENOCIDE by gently accepting it with "youre allowed to and i still am trying to represent you as part of this city" and it just makes her sit there even angrier about it. These people are insane

The more you learn about how things work in the world the more you feel like you must be missing something because it can't possibly be that stupid. Oh so all we need to avoid an economic crash is for the stock market to go up forever? And a third of the market is magic beans? I see,

STEPHANOPOULOS: The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher healthcare premiums. Why are you against that? MIKE JOHNSON: That's an absurd statement STEPHANOPOULOS: It's a factual statement

Ohio’s new age verification law targeting porn goes into effect today, which means people will either have to use a VPN or submit their IDs to use Bluesky. This is Project 2025 in action. The goal is to limit freedom and make it harder to access anything remotely progressive

In this, O'Donnell calls out Trump's cognitive decline for basically the entire segment, along with an aside speculating on Hegseth potentially relapsing with his alcoholism. It should not be this hard to come across a person saying this shit loudly and pointedly

Never has a group developed so complete a hearing problem as Republicans confronted with actual words that Trump has said over the last decade.

How brave

I'm not a political genius, but I'm pretty sure the party that published a 600-page manifesto on how they want to shut down the federal government are the ones who shut down the federal government.

a democratically elected congresswoman is being denied her seat because the speaker simply does not want to seat her and leadership is as unconcerned about this as they seem to be about everything else

why did he say this

christ this is egregious

There are two real factions in the DNC: those who perpetually live in 1992, and those who live in 2025

Using a quote from your failson sex pest opponent's dad to dunk on him is diabolical

I hate that trans people have to continually relitigate the “poll-friendliness” of their existence. Even if you buy the idea that Trump won because of anti-trans messaging, the Kamala they/them ad would have been worthless if she had a more substantive message than “hey at least I’m not those guys”

you absolutely have to put all these people on trial once this is all over and I don't think anyone in power right now has any desire to do that

If there isn't a rapid and vast rejection of this by every level of civil society, the consequences will be counted in dead neighbors.

Culture NEEDS music and Musicians Especially under 40 to Unfcuk This World . We have more comedians and actors saying more than musicians now. Young artists voice need support It’s their world It’s their future It’s their reality Don’t wait for the Aged to lead the lives young gotta age into

This is what it's like every single time watching Schumer or Jeffries try to act tough against this administration

This passage nearly broke me.

Really drives you insane that as a normal person, you see this and think "this is so easy to attack and just work to promote the exact opposite of what he's doing" But Democrats read this and think "we can just do nothing and we'll win"

This is the administration that just fired a bunch of FBI agents for kneeling at a BLM protest five years ago.

For context Hegseth was basically fired from every job he had, including resigning from his national guard duty because he had a Deus Vult tattoo. He got fired from all his other jobs for drinking and abusing women on the job. Heres a letter his own mother wrote to him about his treatment of women

UPDATE: It's bad. We need to secure an $1,800 deposit before Wednesday. Our eviction was finalized, $14K debt was wiped (thank God) and we signed a lease on a new place. But our cat, Charlotte, got very sick, which costed us $2,500. Any help will be greatly appreciated gofund.me/158c482c

You need to keep going just to be around to see that look of confidence that they'll never face a consequence for any of this slowly fade away

You're not supposed to say this part out loud

Not really a surprise that this meeting wouldn't be anything other than this

Not that anything matters anymore but for the record this is more radically anti-Christian than any amount of gay marriages or trans kids playing volleyball. I don't think you can make a more direct assault on the ethos of Christ in two sentences than this.

There's a lot of things that cycle through making me mad about this administration, but right now, given this specific meeting happening, it's really up there how a dipshit who had his daddy help him dodge the draft and a dude who LARPs like he was a navy seal are telling the military what to do

pete hegseth, who you will recall has been accused of domestic abuse and sexual assault, has announced a new policy by which you cannot file anonymous complaints of mistreatment. sex criminal solidarity.

yeah, this is hegseth straightforwardly announcing that it is free play time for bigots in the ranks. and together with his comments on standards, he clearly wants to purge as many women, black and brown people as he can from the armed services. a white man's military.

starting to think that an increasingly senile trump is being shown a different reality by his aides by making ai videos of shit and telling him it’s real news

Remember when Napster got shut down?

I understand they aren't my own family, but how do you hear your dad say this and not respond with "you're a fucking idiot, dad" and then go the rest of your life never talking again?

For all intents and purposes, Stephen Miller is the actual President of the United States right now.

Court-watchers confirm this cruel ICE agent has been reinstated. Last week, in the briefest moment of decency, violently throwing a woman to the floor was “beneath the men and women of ICE.” This week, it’s back to business as usual. The cruelty, after all, is the point.

Schumer having this interaction and still wanting to make a budget agreement is the most Schumer thing he could possibly do
