it's real fun to get the completely opposing messages of "don't worry! ai isn't going to take away your job!" and "if you don't get with the program and use ai in your day-to-day, you don't have a place here"

Watching yet another bullshit legacy media plagiarism scandal unfold and I am just hopping mad about all the incredibly talented writers, reporters, photographers, and editors out there who love their work and have integrity and are scrabbling for a dwindling number of freelance assignments.

IN WHAT CONTEXT COULD IT POSSIBLY MEAN ANYTHING ELSE

Overall... wow... fuck yeah. the long covid section should include more about tick borne diseases testing tho😅

George Floyd was murdered by an officer of the law for allegedly passing a phony $20 bill.

I cannot believe CANVAS was hacked at the end of my finals week

"And here’s the bigger problem: You’re not supposed to know what you or your loved ones qualify for. Otherwise, you might get what you are actually owed."

American Black women now have fewer voting rights and reproductive rights than their mothers did at the same age. Progress isn’t a straight line, indeed.

The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in Minneapolis—and then called her a “fucking bitch” moments before she died in her car—was only placed on three days of administrative leave and continues to work for the agency in another state. trib.al/C3bEEAM

Some pretty crazy stuff that somehow didn’t make it on the air.

Pieces like this are why I'm thrilled that we're reprinting Bitch pieces on @theflytrapmedia.com. They shouldn't languish in the depths of the Internet Archive. Paid members make this possible. We're having a sale so today is a good day to join them! www.theflytrapmedia.com/collectivism

I hate to tell yall but America doesn't go days without mass shootings ... we haven't in a while.

Between what daredevil has done with karen, vanessa and now jessica jones... this show has a problem writing women

Oscar Issac talking about Soderbergh and being asked if we'll ever see Poe again. He's such a diva this whole interview lol

i find it fascinating people believe the argument for unfinished arcs in the pitt is because it takes place during one day. films notoriously take place over short periods of time and have full arcs. You just have to write situations to press characters to have realizations and make Choices/Changes

I wrote a kingdon fic... why must i get attached to ships within media that makes me bang my head against a wall

I was on the @ualberta.bsky.social campus today for the unveiling of this remarkable art installation by Metis painter Christi Belcourt. It’s called In My Grandmother’s Time, and it blends traditional motifs from Metis beading and embroidery with digital technology. And it’s gorgeous. #ualberta #yeg

the disconnect/misrepresentation in journalism on The Pitt fandom and a lack of doylist critical analysis on the writing - especially glaring because of the show's no one's more progressive than us" pitch - is truly a marvel. A glaring neon sign of our current political climate.

We need outtakes again. Outtakes would heal. More TV and movie outtakes on the regular please

If everyone including admin Know about langdon's addiction (the drug test proves this IS the case, so someone reported his addiction) then admin ALSO absolutely know he likely stole drugs - its too realistic and common a problem in hospitals. the dumbest season long plot of contention omg 😭#thepitt

they really introduced a woc attending to then tell us she's not capable of taking robby's role in the pitt. If she's not also written off in the finale i'll be shocked #thepitt

Sigh.... yeah... that was an episode

god i love cassie

not me screaming at the tv "good for you!" at javadi for standing up to robby lmao

It’s Pitt o’clock!!

I do think its funny when people are like Well Langdonnn has been given special treatment/a plot as a gotcha because the writers failed that plot line toooooo!😭 its not even very sympathetic to addicts, which for This show is side-eye inducing and begs so many questions. it's truly The Robby Show

If you want to read an actually good article on the discourse around the pitt right now, and not one of the many many articles going around that belittle the issues around the production and writing, then I'd suggest this one

“why aren’t college students protesting”

“Why aren’t college students protesting” stories are almost always wrong (they are protesting), omit crucial context (they were brutally punished for protesting before), and somehow suggest that 19 yr olds have more moral responsibility than elected officials three times their age

This is a good article, but on this one point: no I would much prefer to be niche, thanks! www.teenvogue.com/story/journa...

Trump has apparently just posted a video of a woman being murdered on his social media account. I am not watching it and you shouldn’t either. You should, however, call your reps and demand impeachment.

As in all things, when you approach a topic with genuine interest, enthusiasm, and care, esp as a member of the community, it shows. When you're new to a topic or you think there's novelty/shock/look at these weirdos value, that also shows. Heavy overlaps here with coverage of romance!

When editors approach me for coverage that's not my lane, I refer them to more appropriate writers. While that hurts me economically, I think it's the right thing to do, but it's very obvious there are many writers who don't share this ethos or feel like they can't risk losing money.

Fandoms are community and sub communities too. If you are not actively IN a fandom then you will not fully understand the rounds of discourse, theorizing, inside jokes and everything else. The GQ article is a perfect example of misogynistic misinformation cherrypicking of JOKES in fandom spaces

absolutely astonished, horrified and disgusted by the the GQ the pitt article my god

let us all say it at the same time, including entertainment journalists apparently (bc I've seen far too many of them make this mistake). "opioids and benzodiazepines are not the same. You do not get 'high' on benzos, a sedative. They’re for anxiety, insomnia and panic disorders." #thepitt

WELP. That deal lasted all of 20 hours. apnews.com/live/iran-wa...

Oh wtf

Omg if danielle cage is in daredevil im about to be so excited (if jessica had someone else's baby im about to be annoyed)

This is so real! But I'd learn a lot about the scary and weird adult world from my grandmother's side monologue: "That's Iris...she's rich but she's not happy...she's locked herself in her bedroom with her scissors...they're afraid she's going to hurt herself but she's just going to cut her hair..."

I think a lot of people forgot how utterly unhinged the reaction to TLJ was by some. Like people act like it wasn't that bad, but a lot of those "reviews" are still up, if you can watch them and say it's not... I'm going to judge you.
