"We worked WAAAAY harder and it took WAAAAY longer than just making this commercial with an actual film crew. AI is the future!!" Love how the tech bros claim AI is both way easier so it "dEmOcRaTiZeS aRt", but also way harder which is why they need to be lauded. Just bad faith all the way down.

Happy Yule! Pic related to the current emojis in my screen name.

Israeli forces in Gaza were responsible for 40 percent of journalist deaths, and jailed huge numbers also.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

My tinfoil hat conspiracy theory is that the White Nat Militia Movement had a stronghold in Littleton, Colorado, that the parents were bigwigs in the Militia movement, and everyone conspired to bury this secret about their precious babies being radicalized to Do Race Terrorism.

The thing you have to understand about Columbine is that Klebold and Harris were in tune with the White Nationalist 'Militia Movement' sweeping the nation in the 1990s (they were common, garden neonazis masquerading as Freedom Seekers, much like the Red Magas of today).

"The Do Over Damsel Conquers the Dragon Emperor" is absolutely the cutest and most fun DEEPLY problematic anime I've ever seen.

I really respect how much American corporations are committed to killing their customers unless absolutely forced not to.

That moment when you do something to play along with someone else's kink and then discover that it's suddenly a HUGE kink of yours now too... 😳🥵😵‍💫

Trans folks reading this: don't panic too much, the supreme court thing is about injunctions pending a larger court case Cis folks reading this: Try to understand how terrifying it is to be a minority the government openly hates, and they start fucking with your ability to *leave the country*

Reblog if you love porn!

Think about how the left told Biden, and then Kamala, that their campaign would 100% lose if they did the exact opposite of what Mamdani's would be. They literally plugged their ears and said shut the fuck up, and then she lost by doing the exact opposite, in every way on every issue, of Mamdani.

They won’t even have to rewrite any of it!

The best part of this is that he (and the entire rest of the right) are losing their shit over a left leaning dude winning a fairly low level elected office in the grand scheme of things in one of the most left leaning cities in the country. Like, famously so. And they are SO furious it happened.

I'll take, "Things They Will Never Admit If Their Lives Depended On It" for $1000, Ken.

I'm ready for apologies from pundits and politicians who showed their bigoted asses and suggested we needed to abandon trans people in order to win. looks like "fairness in girls' sports" wasn't the unbeatable wedge issue you thought it was, was it? kinda makes you look like a dumbass, huh?

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Israel is manufacturing consent to attack the Global Sumud Flotilla They made this laughable post on Twitter So convenient to have found documents in bombed out Gaza Please share so that people are aware before our main stream media start to regurgitate this garbage #NZPol

It's pretty wild to me that investigators have uncovered that anti-trans campaigns are largely funded by the fossil fuel industry, and that the presumed motivations are pretty directly to redirect the public conversation away from climate change... and that this isn't bigger news.

Experts agree the first AI was born shortly after the invention of the wheel, when a cart disobeyed its owner by rolling down a hill unprompted

We need to teach people the difference between being uncomfortable and being unsafe. Because the discomfort of the safest people is endangering the most vulnerable, all day every day.

good morning. keep the calls up!!!

There is absolutely no excuse for any Democrat asked about trans athletes to ever respond with anything but “why are you wasting my time asking about FEWER THAN FIFTEEN CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY WHO WANT TO PLAY GAMES WITH THEIR FRIENDS. What is wrong with you?”

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mahmoud. Mahmoud is only twenty years old. He was just 2 months in to his first year at university studying mathematics when the war started and it all shut down. He is now trying to support his younger siblings Tariq, Dania, Dunya and Dima.

I've regularly worked in the summer heat, and still do occasionally. I'm not sure *I* could safely last an hour in the heat we've got now working in the fields.

Reactionary American Christians think that forcing their faith into public spaces will make people more religious. In fact, evidence shows the exact opposite appears to be the case. Keeping religion out of government protects citizens and protects faith. plus.flux.community/p/government...

This is a great piece on a program in the 60s that tried to replace skilled Mexican farm labor with American teenagers. It didn’t work then, it won’t work now.

Innocent people don’t pardon criminals to protect themselves.

Smut Sunday needs a temporary pfp change!

If you can't explain why censorship like this is dangerous to family or friends, memorize this now.

today i went to a progressive jewish gathering and someone asked me given my background—granddaughter of holocaust survivor, family in israel—if i could still empathize w the pro-Israel POV. i said i tried hard the last couple years, but i’ve given up. no justification outweighs palestinian lives.

The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.

KOSA is back. This is the internet censorship bill! And it's not just coming for SWers, it'll be coming for all LGBTQ content, because the people in charge view LGBTQ people as inherently pornagraphic! We must push back even harder than we did last time we killed this bill 🔥

You know how, when the world gets you down, you just edge yourself into a perpetual brain fog of denial and horniness? Or is that just me?

To all my oomfies.

When we talk about billionaires trying to solve the "problem" of their armed security staff simply taking over their apocalypse bunkers? It's Thiel we're talking about, specifically. And his solution, by the way, is to make everyone too sick and weak to pull it off. The richest man wants you dead.
