A catified version of a photograph of Sergeant Baker looking at a fallen Nazi eagle in the ruins of the Reich Chancellery, 3 July 1945.

i dunno I think sometimes people just enjoy talking to like minded people. do you do this kind of shit with your friends offline

tv shows reeling nazis in like

Ya ha pasado otro mes, vamos con eso de hablar de lo que sí, de esos libros que van a salir -y les tengo ganas- y algunos que ya han salido -y no los tenía en el radar el mes pasado-, y otros que mencioné ya pero ahora tienen enlace a la propia editorial. De editoriales algo más medianas-pequeñas.

Honduran audiences and artists are overwhelmingly rejecting 'Copán: La leyenda,' a locally produced animated feature made with extensive generative AI tools and criticized as a feature-length AI slop commercial. www.cartoonbrew.com/artificial-i...

Ya está Juan Carlos Galindo soltando gilipolleces en El País. De Denis Johnson suelta un "Durante mucho tiempo, fue un autor de culto, y oculto, en España." Imagina decir eso de un autor que lleva publicándose tanto tiempo en España

i know he's the darling of a lot of people, but you could absolutely skip him and just read elmore leonard, who was both a better writer and a more incisive examiner of America™

lmao you gotta admit that ellroy's commitment to assholery is sincere, at least

LUEGO TODO ES QUE LOS JÓVENES NO VIENE POR AHÍ Y SE BUSCAN LA VIDA POR INTERNETE... ¡¡¡UY, A SABER POR QUÉ PUEDE SER!!!

Esto incluye, por ejemplo, si te piden algo parecido a "Heated Rivalry" NO OFRECER LA PUTA ODISEA. NI ENTREVISTA CON UN VAMPIRO. ¡QUE TE ESTÁN PIDIENDO ALGO EXPLÍCITAMENTE QUEER! ¡¡¡POR LO MENOS RECONOCE QUE NO TIENES NI PUTA IDEA Y NO SEAS MÁS RANCIA QUE EL TOCINO DE LA SEMANA PASADA!!!

i am generally opposed to amplifying mass shooter manifestos but this one is so pathetic it really should be used to educate people about what huge fucking losers these guys are

Vote for the Left. For them!" Poster for the Front d'Esquerres (name of the Popular Front in Catalonia) for the February 1936 Spanish general election. By Cristóbal Arteche.

I just did BBC Front Row about this - I think the Tokarczuk stuff is ultimately more significant than a slop short story getting published. Though if she’s spent her Nobel money she should really have waited for Anthropic/OpenAI to make an offer before she gave an endorsement for free

Another perfect moment from today’s shitshow is Sigrid Rausing of Granta saying that to determine if the Naipaulslop story was AI they … asked Claude

Looks like Tokarczuk (who spent much of that interview complaining that she doesn’t make enough money) is actually all-in on AI. On the other place they’re talking about a company she has founded that creates AI based RPG games and got a big grant from the Polish government

🤦‍♂️ #FuckAI

Ah, veo que los impresentables del Gremio de Libreros Catalanes han presentado hoy el monigote este. Así que en lugar de repetirme otra vez os dejo por aquí lo que dije el otro día después de leer esa birria.

Ah, que el título destacado de Norma para junio se llama directamente "ETA y el movimiento antinuclear". Ninguna agencia, claro, ningún intento de enmendar el discurso ni de barrer para casa por parte de la editorial. Ser editor en España requiere de una falta de vergüenza acojonante.

So Olga Tokarczuk announced she now writes using AI, and a (terrible) AI-written story has won a prize in the Commonwealth Writers Prize. What other literary crap will the day bring?

With disgust I learned Olga Tokarczuk uses AI to help with writing her latest novel - article in Polish, my translation of relevant bit in posts below mycompanypolska.pl/artykul/olga...

Oozing back and just kind of being accepted is a longstanding and highly successful tactic for awful men. This is your friendly reminder that it only works if we let it. Block that waste of space.

El manifiesto del Gremio de Libreros de Cataluña -que, recordemos, no es de sus librerías, sino de sus asociados- es de un churrimerinosmo acojonante: trialallibreria.cat

Design so on point. 👌 Baltics Anarchist Bookfair is taking place in gorgeous Tartu, Estonia this year May 29 - 31. Any Bluesky comrades I'll be seeing there? ;) 🏴

Recordemos que los jefazos de MalPaso estuvieron haciendo las rondas pidiendo que se borraran los artículos y enlaces sobre sus tropelías con la excusa de la 'ley del olvido'. ¡Pero no puede haber olvido para ellos!

Esperasperaspera... ¡¿QUE DIBBUKS ESTÁ EN LO DE CÓMICS PRO DEL SALÓ DE BARNA?! Pues si alguien se ha acercado por ahí QUE RECUERDE QUIÉNES SON ESA GENTE. ¡¡¡QUE SON DEL GRUPO MALPASO!!! ¡CUIDADO CON ELLOS!

You know, historically elites loudly declaring "fuck you, that's why" to everyone else at every opportunity doesn't work out the way they think.

I bought the last few dozen copies of my 2020 collection of political cartoons from my publisher. They will be offered (signed and sketched in) as add-ons to any tier of this campaign. www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...

Turns out crows are really really black, blacker than most black creatures are black.

As if it wasn't obvious from everything that he stood for in Parliamentary politics (Mandelson et al.), during the university years he was around many of my peers in UK student politics and everybody only had snake-related adjectives for him and his right-wing politics. Must never be trusted.

Gary posted some new ones if you haven't checked in a while. What a king www.thefarside.com/new-stuff/36...

"A oscuras", de Thomas Pynchon, no solo está mal impreso y mal encuadernado, sino que además ni se han molestado en corregir erratas. Qué asco cuando los grandes grupos tienen secuestrados a autores que no les importan solo por el prestigio que dan a la editorial.

Kinda weird no one's calling this World War Trump. He's just exploding shit all throughout the world with no care for second order effects. It really is just him vs. everybody, and you'll only be spared if you seed intimidating shirtless AI pictures of your own country's dictator onto TruthSocial.

in 2016 I made a comic titled “Mr. Gotcha” that would become most viewed and circulated image I’d create. Now it is the subject of a book by @glennf.com examining its history in online discourse. That One Matt Bors comic is live on Kickstarter—back it here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...

Comienzo de una reseña de Javier Aparicio Maydeu, del libro de Thomas Pynchon "A oscuras" para el diario "El País", y, a juzgar por su estupidez supina, presumamos que la última. No seáis como Javier.

This is wild: Yomiuri News reports that due to the Iran War, Japan is facing a critical shortage in naphtha, a key material in making potato chip bags, and printing ink. As a result, the snack giant Calbee has announced that they are adopt black-and-white packaging for most key products 🫠 🫠 🫠

Hoy os traigo la recomendación "Si vas a hacer una Feria del Libro Independiente procura que tu cartel no hieda a IA por los cuatro costados".

Saunders, who got a degree in geological engineering from the Colorado School of Mines and worked in Oil & Gas exploration has stated that, as a young man, his favorite writer was Ayn Rand and that he only abandoned that worldview after reading Vonnegut. He's not a complicated writer or thinker.

Dr. Q Manivannan, a transgender and non-binary Indian immigrant was elected as a Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for JK Rowling's constituency. Oh dear don't spread this she might see and get angry!
