I'm reposting this not for doomerism purposes but because she talks about some ways that you can identify AI images, which people who follow me may or may not already know about

Never forget the time in 2020 Charlie Kirk (dead now) pretended to be a black guy on Twitter but forgot to switch accounts when giving himself a nice compliment.

Disappointed in their ball-handling skills, Keke decides to send the ball into a stable orbit #babaisyou

we don't have to fear getting milkshake ducked by people using genAI if we just start blowing all the data centers up

Reclaiming what's his 🐑🌾 (he/him both characters!)

I don't know how it is in Zootopia with the study of the anatomy of various animals, but I assume that after a hundred years, snakes were not particularly interested, and now there is a great chance to study them in full after their return heh #ArtZacepka #Gary_De'Snake #NibblesMaplestick #zootopia

Reminder that all it would take to throw the entire government into crisis is a single reporter on live TV asking him what year it is.

Remember that the air ride machines are sentient so this counts as inflation.

Folks I emphasize as always, if you don't actually show up for the things you want, they stop getting made. Sometimes you gotta be okay with taking a chance on that 7/10 game knowing it's the only way those creators get to keep making the stuff you wanna see

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

KOSA has been defeated several times already and they keep trying over and over until the one time it goes through, at which point it becomes everyone's problem. It will be an unmitigated disaster if this passes and they say, well, sorry, now it's the law. Make sure your creature votes No on this.

South Seattle friends PLEASE keep an eye on the news. Evacuation orders have gone out for parts of tukwila, Renton, Kent and such. Do not roll the dice with your life GO NOW: Flash flood evacuation issued for Tukwila area after Green River levee failure komonews.com/news/local/f...

Fuck Fortnite, Fuck Epic Games, Fuck Harry Potter, and FUCK JOANNE ROWLING.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

An absolute disgrace of a human being.

Hey you! Stop playing Fortnite!

"R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist?" is such a "how much could a banana cost" question Must be nice, Mark, to live in an insulated world of wealth where you just get to see specialists whenever you want to!

I am totally serious about this: file articles of impeachment over this specifically

A good reminder that even the most talented, creative people do not always experience meteoric career success. That doesn't mean that what they made isn't good or worth celebrating or that they'll never have success again. Wishing the best for Takahashi, I will play anything he makes.

hey, dragon lovers #nsfw

‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens https://theonion.com/no-way-to-prevent-this-says-only-nation-where-this-regularly-happens-3/

Hey Americans Your government controls how this works basically around the whole world. How about you do literally the entire world a solid and do whatever you can to prevent your government from restricting what EVERYONE ELSE wants to do, yeah?

Rob Reiner was an acclaimed actor & director but he was also a vocal critic of Trump He warned the American public that they only had a year to save their democracy That year is almost up Honour his legacy by fighting fascism. Fight for democracy. Fight for what’s right. Fight against tyranny.

It dawned on my why everyone is in love with his ad-wolf... he is basically Bad Guys' Mr Wolf living out Gideon Grey's story!

Those that survive are endangered by habitat loss & introduced species. As many as 95% of all bird species that were on the island prior to human colonization (~10th century AD) are now extinct. 70% of the survivors are endangered. 1/3 of all endangered birds in the US are Hawaiian.

I’m so sorry, I know budgets are tight around the holidays, but I am still drowning in debt from all of this and truly anything helps… ko-fi.com/bixbyte

🚨URGENT: Congress prepares to push forward wolf slaughter bill that would remove federal protections for gray wolves across the lower 48 states and prohibit judicial review. Decision will be voted on Dec. 15 and could move to a House vote next week. 📣Take action: https://bit.ly/4adWexU

Also, if you want me to be more creative, I dont need fucking AI what I need is god damn healthcare, a 4 day workweek and a 20-25 dollar min wage as a start. That'll really make me more creative.

I checked twitter the other day and the first thing I saw was discourse about the morality of drawing NSFW of Gary De'Snake from Zootopia 2. People were actually rebuilding the classical definition of anthro from first principles but ONLY FOR THIS ONE GUY. I swiftly exited the tab.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous this is worth sharing and educating people about

The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht

my fiancee katie is really struggling right now and needs help affording to live while catching up paying off her replacement appliances for the ones that broke 💕💸 bsky.app/profile/kati...

If you can still consider a weasel after being relocated into Neogale, the long tailed weasel is the “most weasel”

if ur wondering what happened to this guy, i just reworked him entirely. i only need to stream something now

Lovely Herbert art from @admooosa.bsky.social So good I had to get two!

Commission for nuclearexchange. Class is over, and someone got a surprise to show you.

new weasel just dropped

Great example

When Tulin greets you after a long adventure 💚🏹✨

there’s a large portion of people somehow posting about how this made them more islamiphobic which to me implies they endorse the shooting

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

yall made him mad.

I'm giving out this star, so get it while you can folks

We have been robbed of a livable future.

My hottest take is that letting cops park in red zones for mundane errands and coffee breaks; I think “you can break the law at your discretion as a job perk” is the small domino that ends in the large domino of “shooting protesters in the face with rubber bullets”

Because if you care about securely owning a movie that you love--as opposed to "owning" it only until a license agreement over which you have no control expires without warning--you need a DVD or Blu-ray. The hardware may be yesterday; the concern is very much of this moment.
