[AI bubble bursts] billionaire tech bro: the stupid consumer did not understand it

Scarlett Johansson, Cate Blanchett, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Vince Gilligan are among 700 artists, writers and creators backing a new anti-AI campaign calling out tech companies for stealing copyrighted work "Stealing our work is not innovation. It’s not progress. It’s theft — plain and simple"

There is no level to which these heartless shit-for-brains won’t stoop to inflict cruelty and suffering.

CONTINUE TELLING EVERYONE YOU KNOW THAT AI IS THE STUPIDEST SHIT EVER IT IS WORKING CONTINUE TO MAKE ART YOURSELF CONTINUE TO WRITE THINGS THAT INSPIRE YOU THE WHOLE POINT OF BEING ALIVE IS TO CREATE COOL SHIT AI STRIPS US OF THE POINT OF BEING HUMAN

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Happy MLK Day Always remember the dream. 🖤 #mlk #martinlutherkingjr #erma

Sonic has soared to new heights in the 2020s from conquering Titans, to exploring new islands, discovering new friends and foes, taking on the silver screen, and so much more. Here's to making this Sonic's best era yet! 🎨: Yui Karasuno

Newly available videos and existing footage synchronized and assessed by The New York Times provide a frame-by-frame look at what led to Renee Good being shot and killed by an ICE officer in Minneapolis. Watch our visual investigation. trib.al/dJBtpjH

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”

DEFEATED! Democrats joined by 6 Republicans just took down this anti-worker bill, the final vote was unchanged from below. Mike Johnson spent nearly an hour trying to flip Republican holdouts but ultimately gave up, his first floor defeat of the year and likely not the last.

I'm just gonna go ahead and post this now.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

Grok is producing ~6,700 sexually suggestive or nudified images per hour • Twitter (X) is now the top deepfaking site in the world • Women who speak out become targets by users (via business)

important message to all bluesky users

Yeah, it has long been the case that adult-oriented businesses have to be careful or risk the wrath of everyone from prosecutors to payment-processing companies, but "prominent social media company owned by world's richest person swiftly became world's largest CSAM producer" produces no reaction.

The wisdom of Mr. Rogers is eternal:

You couldn't publish this today. You'd have to cloak it under several layers of metaphor.

2026. I will draw, even if it’s bad. I will draw, even if it’s challenging. I will draw, even if it’s been done before. I will draw, even if it’s imperfect. I will draw, even if someone else is better. I will draw, even if I have much to learn. I will draw because it’s fun. Because I’m human.

For all that the media has spent years freaking out about what social media does to our brains, I don’t understand why there appears to be little effort to grapple with the fact that these chatbots are, for some not insignificant portion of the population, literally psychosis machines

Saving this screenshot from Threads as a new reaction image

you simply do not have to preface your statements about this with “but Maduro sucks” whether or not Maduro sucks is entirely beside the point - we invaded another country and grabbed their leader with no justification other than “we wanted to” don’t give them cover on it

Time to dust this one off again

People be saying “you can’t put the genie back in the lamp/bottle/bag” when the literal most popular film about genies, Aladdin, ends with Jafar turning into a genie and getting shoved the fuck back into his new lamp. Carry that energy into 2026. Make AI so unpopular that govts are forced to act.

Drink some water. Go for a walk. Put your phone down. No amount of doom scrolling is going to make things better. If you want to do something, make a plan to protest and call your representatives. Dont run your nervous system ragged on socials rn

Morning. If you're waking up to a feed full of vague "wtf" it is because the US bombed Venezuela overnight and kidnapped its president That's where to start if you're catching up. Good luck

As a Ukrainian, if you ever cared about Russia's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Ukraine, you should absolutely care about US's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Venezuela. My solidarity and best wishes to all Venezuelans.

fuck this country. fuck this country and fuck the pedophile dictator who is in charge.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

@artbunnii.bsky.social is safe but within earshot of the invasion. Who knows what comes next, so please help them out if you can: ko-fi.com/drstarline

this is the first and probably last time i'll ever try and be preachy about not using twitter because bluesky really is not a very good site either, but i genuinely think if you're aware of this and continue to use the site then I've lost a lot of respect for you, this is abhorrent on every level

If any of yall are wondering what the hullabaloo at Twitter is now, Tldr: To the surprise of nobody, Ai bros are generating child pornography More at 11

(seeing three "fuck the US" posts in a row) uh oh

As of today I’ve removed Twitter from my phone and locked my account. Elon going all in on Generative AI, including enabling Grok to generate deepfakes OF MINORS is unconscionable. This year we ALL need to be louder than ever about this: GenAI is largely unethical and needs to be regulated.

FUCK YOU IT'S JANUARY!!!

Wanna see real-life miracles? Fund scientific research. A team of US scientists just cured Alzheimer’s in mice — and there is now hope that the disease can be reversed in humans. futurism.com/health-medic...

Please say “ethnic cleansing” when posting this stuff because that’s what they’re broadcasting. They’re broadcasting plans to engage in ethnic cleansing.

In 2026: Generative AI is not inevitable. You can say no. You can refuse. You can reject the disgusting lukewarm slop that the richest and worst people in the world are trying to force-feed you. You can tell them to eat shit and die mad. You can break the machine

Lol. This is a testable hypothesis.
