Oh man, that Red Dead Redemption announcement reminds me of the time Rockstar did some union busting.

We don't use leaded gasoline, we don't need to use ai either.

"You can't un-invent AI!" We can't un-invent asbestos either. That doesn't mean we have to use it.

Here's a massive scoop from Ed showing OpenAI has been lying about their revenue for years

Huge scoop from Ed, who had several years of financial reports leaked to him. OpenAI has been over-reporting their revenue. The company is even less profitable than we knew.

BTW, looking for artists on Bluesky was quite the journey. Scam artists inundated me from the outset, but one studio was legit, and I cannot recommend them enough: Collateral Damage Studios out of Singapore! @collateralds.com Highly professional and *REAL ARTISTS*. Absolutely worth every penny.

On the anniversary of the Haymarket martyrs' execution, we're adding a new title to our Working Classics series. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘍𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘚𝘱𝘦𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘌𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘨𝘰 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘴, back in print for the first time in decades, preserves the chilling, defiant words of the accused. www.akpress.org/famous-speec...

Hey, if you're in the US, buy dried lentils.

If it’s not too early for this annual reminder: remember not to give one single penny to these guys this Christmas.

For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore. Our review: https://bit.ly/49bVn01

On this remembrance day, I want to echo something I have been told time and time again: The best way to honour veterans is to stop making them.

3/ We got photos of all of them and got to work finding their names. CBC verified our identifications and added two. By bringing in the CBC, we were able to reach a much larger audience to talk about the threat of white nationalism in Canada. Read CBC's reporting here:

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

not enough chatter about how frequently members fly and how attacking airport capacity directly affects them in a way that cutting SNAP does not

I do not like violence, but it's hard to see a future that does not contain much more of it. I fear that those who have been comfortable in inaction may soon learn that if people cannot afford insulin, they will afford ammunition instead. It's not a future I want to see, but I'm worried it's ours.

trying to avoid "told you so" in favor of "do you see where i'm coming from now"

Democrats, coming off a historic national protest against fascism and a country-wide electoral sweep:

If Games Workshop still wants to push the narrative of "there are no good guys in Warhammer 40k", they need to also make pop. Media that has chaos protagonists. As it stands, the medium most people interact with the setting only has imperium protagonists.

To be perfectly honest, I'm struggling a little bit this month. I've been working hard on my classes and teaching, and trying to do research in two very different fields. Which is why I have been reposting that commission post. It would go a long way to help me this month

So uh bluesky how's that attempt to distract and make us forget how much you've been ignoring input from the users, predominantly artists/creatives and bipoc/queer folks? Because yall are still making some ass backward calls and it's not going over well

Not that I like GTA but: Corporate greed is the reason your much anticipated game is being delayed. It's also the reason for massive day one patches, bad performance, paywalling essential features, sub-par stories, etc. Games are worse when corporate greed dictates their design

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

Wait my Twitter account has a banger lemme just repost it

The truly maddening thing is that, unlike when I was a young man in science and the materials and engineering just weren’t there yet, the future is *right there.* The problem is *solved*. What’s holding us back is not just greed, but this bizarre nostalgia, an obsession with petro- masculinity.

A 98% strike mandate for the nurses is historic on its own. Now consider that they voted this way even after seeing the government clobber the teachers with Bill 2.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Sitting in on ERIAC conference that respects, honours and cares about Romani language and identity. Welsh Kale is invited and represented on a transnational basis.

i can’t believe a good thing happened we should do this more often

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

I hope the NDP/Green parties are taking note that Socialism is a winning strategy.

Trans rights is a winning platform. Pro immigration is a winning platform. Taxing the rich is a winning platform. Affordable housing is a winning platform. Free childcare is a winning platform. Hating Andrew Cuomo is a winning platform. SOCIALISM IS A WINNING PLATFORM

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

What we know, 10:20pm —VA Dems flip Gov, LG, *and* AG —BIG Dem gains in VA House —Dems win NJ-Gov —Mamdani wins —Dems keep PA supreme court —Larry Krasner & Bragg win — GA Dems flip 2 statewide offices —JD Vance’s half-brother loses Cincy —Dems sweep Orlando council —ME anti-mail vote measure loses
