i fucking hate law school, what do you MEAN my professor is using this overwatch meme unironically when discussing different types of remedies???

important message to all bluesky users

might fuck around with some wild soda flavors at the movie theater today... definitely thinking about it...

It's good to use the resources at hand to fight because sometimes you win. Also, I keep thinking of the period after this man was killed and how a group of people tried to impose a new social reality. It didn't work. This too is a lesson.

A dear friend is Sbux union leader through Workers United and she clued me into 3 things. Starbucks has not signed a contract with the workers for 4 years. Starbucks has more union violations than any other company in the US. Shareholders are demanding they settle. Keep boycotting.

Billionaires need to stop the bullshit they're doing and start constructing a cooking arena called "Kitchen Stadium" where visiting chefs from around the world can compete against their Gourmet Academy, led by three or four Iron Chefs

Riker would know this already

wild to see every news outlet use the term "capture" to describe what happened. we're not at war with venezuela! this is *objectively* an illegal kidnapping of a sovereign country's leader

FUCK YOU IT'S JANUARY!!!

Outlook for the new year ...

As if artists don't have enough to deal with, Amazon has a "Buy For Me" program in beta which is scraping indie shops for their items and putting them up on Amazon (often incorrectly), for their "AI agent" to buy from the other site. It is NOT opt in, and there is no opt out.

LeMonde said, not on our watch

Nobody talks about how this kid also needed to learn Navy Seals torture survival tactics to play this role

the term "content creator" served it's purpose very well. conditioning people into seeing everyone as anyone and everything as anything, mostly among the ruling class who found it most convenient for their pockets. in that sense, generating slop is the final result of content creation

people love to be like ‘blue states good! red states bad!’ but it is a fact that both new york senators voted in favor of this so 🤷‍♀️

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

we can kill them all if we just work together and ✨believe💫

This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants

Prediction for the future: all IP will be homogenized into Fortnite. That's all that's going to be left

This quote is rich and verbatim confirms that Iger and Disney literally don’t see artists as creatives or creators.

“I miss blockbuster video” the library has every dvd totally untouched and I never see you there

Today New York made history, becoming the first state to require companies disclose when they use AI-generated actors in advertisements. New York wouldn’t be New York without its film and TV industry. Responsible AI policies like this protect the actors who keep it running.

This is Charles Clyde Ebbets, the photographer who took the iconic “Lunch atop a Skyscraper” picture. Look at this fearless, dapper fuck wearing spats, suspenders, and a tie 850 feet above the ground. Absolute legend.

With alt-text bc what a beautiful answer (I mean don't use AI to build a robot, please god don't do that, but the rest of it yes lol)

Again, apologizing to all videogame environment artists who knocked up satirical posters for their games, I should not have rolled my eyes, yes, even you Cyberpunk billboard team, I am sorry

I’ve found it’s more visually appealing to just paste in his head at the inflection points

The way tech companies constantly do stuff that nobody asked for really tells you a lot about their bigger ideology. They tell themselves that you will like it over time. What they mean is you’ll learn to endure it, or you’ll give up. quality of UI is not actually anywhere on their radar

Lawmakers and bible thumpers don't want you to understand the people they're demonizing are doing more good for society than they ever would

pals you gotta quit spotify

Intensely funny because it seems like the vast majority of people at that event were convinced it was fully autonomous and Musk has repeatedly recently claimed they're not tele-operated www.reddit.com/r/robotics/c...

“That felt frog wearing a top hat is to celebrate the Lord” is one of those phrases that lives on repeat in my head.

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.

That much money financing games by actual game developers would have financed 150+ of the highest budget AAA games, and the several orders of magnitude more jobs to produce them. Instead it was burned failing to produce advertiser-safe Second Life.

we should set all this on fire and push it into the ocean

She shouldn't have to keep doing this by herself. She is supposedly a member of a political party and every single one of her *colleagues* should be BLASTING the fascist in chief. ALL OF THEM. Where is the solidarity???

Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

I have come to the idea that we have to collectively, brutally, ritualistically kill Target just to show capital that we truly aren’t fucking around.

be the bitch doing something yourself that you want to see in the world
