Who knows if this will get through this round, but it's notable that we're starting to see proposals like this floated. As @amandajean.bsky.social points out, part of the logic here is subsidizing education is bad because it keeps people from having babies: www.heritage.org/education/re...

This art is soooo cute. Flipping into seeing Titania shoved through a Jen ad is so funny lol

Scarlet Witch - Marvel Super Heroes I had the greatest pleasure to paint this Scarlet Witch in oils. I loved the possibility to put some poetry in the effects to give it some kind of an enchanting feel. This painting will be auctioned as soon as it is appropriate. #mtg #mtgmsh #marvel

If I’m not evolved enough to understand it, then why did they have to steal my writing to train it?

The first episode of our new @propublica.org podcast, “Paper Trail,” is out! And we’ve got a doozy — it’s about a secretive FDA policy that my colleagues spent two years uncovering. What they found, I have to admit, actually scared me … 🧵

this is such a great encapsulation of what the various factions of the reactionary right want. i might add that they envision themselves as slave masters and the rest of us, in one way or another, as their slaves. betterdonkey.substack.com/p/the-vra-wa...

It is remarkable how many establishment Dems simply do not understand they are in the middle of an existential war against MAGA politics, and that there’s no co-existence possible here.

This cruised to 7 wins really smoothly. Overall having fun with SOS draft but not sure if I'm going to top this. 😅

Laura Dern stans we ride at dawn

This is the same 'campus protests' schtick. Violent racist stormtroopers are kidnapping ppl, we're in a new war launched by murderous idiots, WH/congressional corruption is worse than all prev WH/congressional corruption COMBINED, but let's ignore all that & imagine some dude stealing a lemon.

We should have never doubted this man

another example of why taxing the rich, especially these two losers, is a necessary alternative to letting them coast on these small scale, ephemeral pet projects of performative philanthropy

I love these silly creatures #art #pokemon

just this week: -- OpenAI killed Sora -- Disney subsequently cancelled its investment in OpenAI -- Wikipedia is now banning LLM-generated content ...tell me again how this is all "inevitable" and you have to "get on board or get left behind"?

not only are they not good people, this performative courting of nonexistent integrity is a bizarre waste of everybody's time

Star Trek somehow landed a pleasantly earnest, straightforward show in its most difficult setting (hundreds of years after TNG/DS9/Voyager), perfectly open-ended track clear to make adventure-of-the-week-with-students episodes, and hahaha no, Paramount is anti good things gizmodo.com/star-trek-st...

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

Don't read PinkNews. Don't click or share their posts If they want reporter free news it can be consumed by a reader-free audience

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

This is happening because OpenAI - a company that does not have anything even approaching a viable business model and is setting money on fire - used borrowed money to advance buy all of the raw materials for RAM production so competitors couldn’t get it

I reached level 40 yesterday. Went to dinner with @neonbootyshorts.bsky.social to celebrate

sorry i missed the virtual meeting on discord, liz. i got hit with the id verification that happens when the app detects youre young

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

The full run of SCTV for free. God bless and keep the Internet Archive.

we said all along that they wanted Gawker dead not because we embarrassed a pro wrestler but because the Epstein story is one Gawker was covering a decade before most other people caught up & was just one of many stories exposing powerful people and their misdeeds

Catherine O’Hara gave us all so much. Her comedy inspired me. Her characters served as proxy mothers for many of us. All of our lives, and our culture more broadly, are better because of her life and work.

Shane Hollander showing up to the next Olympics after coming out:

Two Black electeds attacked in the same week. Seek out and join up with groups in your community that are fighting fascism and racism and xenophobia and hatred. This will be one of our primary jobs for the rest of our lives.

Exactly right. Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign. Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE. Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them. Every possible angle.
