Love this from Guillermo del Toro

Admittedly I only pay sort of selective attention to the NBA prior to the All-Star break but IIRC since Wemby completely broke them the Thunder have now lost 38 games in a row?

My big Bluesky take is not that there aren't enough people posting about sports on here (there's plenty, it's not hard to find, shut up already) but that the whole place is just NFL on Sundays. As someone who almost never watches the NFL, Bluesky is useless, one day a week, specifically for me.

It's really something, if you work in any field related to journalism or publishing, to ponder the ethics of "any photo of a person I ever publish can immediately and without that person's consent be turned into pornography by a robot."

What will it take for you to quit X? Would you sign up for the Nazi CSAM site today as a brand-new user? www.jezebel.com/what-will-it... #twitter

A WONDER STRIKE FROM HARRISON REED IN THE 97TH MINUTE! 😱 This equalizer results in a Fulham-Liverpool 2-2 draw.

UPDATE: lol, lmao

Soccer: bad idea, stupid. Dumb.

"Soco" is laboring removing weeds and dry vines in Tulare County, so that the vineyards are ready for the pruning season. She works 8 hours a day, Monday through Friday, earning minimum wage. She is a single mother and works very hard to provide for her children. #WeFeedYou

Note the times. Apparently in the 3 seconds it took me to tap on the hourly forecast the “realfeel” plummeted 10 degrees!

Colombian President Petro on Epstein’s collaborator Donald Trump: “A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy. To keep Epstein's list from coming out, they send warships to kill fishermen & threaten our neighbor with invasion for their oil." #OpDeathEaters

Mamdani been mayor for five minutes & is pulling up on slumlords, tearing up flooring himself, disgusted, and took the whole media with him. He is HIM 😭

He was gonna merk that ref

Here’s a good book by @vincentbevins.bsky.social.

The kidnapping of Maduro inaugurates a highly dangerous era of U.S. empire that for perhaps the first time in an era of mass media is not pretending to be anything other than a violent, extractive enterprise of domination.

Exactly one hour apart. Reveal your sources, @gourmetspud.bsky.social!

I just saw someone say it's the Bush admin ran through ChatGPT and lmfaoooo

We are the world's bad guys. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/we-are-the...

Had someone put the parental warning sticker on this before Griselda does it

Yeah, it’ll probably mostly go off without a hitch, which kinda sucks!

Actually could use some more sports on here today.

every reporter who covers AI should paste their latest piece into it and ask it to tell them if it’s good, and then when it offers obsequious praise, change the prompt to “tear it to shreds,” in order to understand on a personal level that it has no viewpoint and just responds to the prompt

On the nose

A 60-second AI ad for boner pills on ESPN during halftime of the bowl game. Cool, cool.

What people who are new to bluesky need to realize and adjust to is that the twitter algorithm made everyone go viral all the time and the Bluesky algorithm makes no one go viral so temper your expectations

There is a real Meeting of the Minds on the other site to defend Elon Musk's CSAM generation project

If CSAM and MechaHitler aren't enough to get you to quit X, what is your red line? www.jezebel.com/what-will-it...

Or literally anyone else. Come on, folks. Get the fuck off that app.

NEW: People are using Elon Musk's chatbot, Grok, to alter images to depict real women being sexually abused, humiliated, hurt, and even killed. futurism.com/future-socie...

A hearty congrats to RFK Jr., as the U.S. is poised to lose its measles elimination status after 25 years, with the most cases since the early 1990s.

Corrupt tech billionaires are buying power to tilt the world in their favor. Even the co-founder of Y Combinator is saying it. ⬇️ The radical death cult rising from Silicon Valley venture capital is metastasizing rapidly. It's an existential threat to democracy and humanity.

One swipe away from each other on the same app — a 15 degree difference in “realfeel” temperature. Seriously, how do they get away with this.

Here is the editor of Tablet agreeably reposting someone calling nonwhite NYC immigrants "worthless biotrash." It's astonishing how quickly this stuff has escaped containment

Wait, Ole Miss won!?

lmao jfc

more on the nightmarish situation on X where users are apparently generating non consenting pirnographic imagery & sexual images of minors (csam) using xAI’s Grok. Musk merged xAI and X (fka twitter) last year.

Lane wasting no time rehabilitating his image by being pictured with someone even worse

Things are going great on The Everything App with MechaHitler in charge.

so x dot com’s ai generated CSAM and they admitted it may violate US law and … i haven’t seen in anyone in power say much at all or call to stop using the platform

What’s the point at which Michigan fans go “thank god we did not hire DeBoer.” And are we getting close.

They gentrified the tinfoil hat

Cignetti onside kick here or you’re a coward

Mamdani: Where else can you hear the sound of the steel pan, savor the smell of sancocho, and pay $9 for coffee on the same block? Where else could a Muslim kid like me grow up eating bagels and lox every Sunday?

I continue to remain unconvinced that Indiana is *that* good, but I keep forgetting that it may not matter because no one else is this year either.

YESSSSS

The path to political success on the left isn't that hard. Stand with the people and never forget that you did that. Repeat.

When you score way more than 0 points against Oregon

This is so funny because they already tried to make Austin the tech capital and it's already fizzled out! www.wsj.com/articles/aus...
