Gen AI doth remove commitment from art. Yf an artist ys committed to makinge somethinge trulye weirde, even shockinge, that artist doth neede to crafte the art, at everye steppe thinkinge, "Yes, Ich am drawinge a sexy C-3PO." Wyth Gen AI you kan make a sexy C-3PO wythout caringe, and that ys wrong.

Stop sharing AI slop.

It's one thing if you don't know or just made a mistake. No need to breathe down someones neck b/c its harder to tell nowadays.

But if you do know (ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO KNOW) even if you're posting it to make fun of it or sharing it unironically... consider not doing that.

Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night.

He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.

Actually, I say let's go ahead and let these guys brand AI slop as Web 4.0. Hear me out: this framework accepts that Web 3.0 really was just 18 months or so of people trying to sell cartoon jpgs for profit, and establishes a trend line wherein "AI platforms" are the next devolutionary step.

I just got an email declaring "Web 4.0 is dawning."

No it isn't. Shut up. What is wrong with you? Have some fucking self-respect.

I’ve been in Canada since October 11th. In that time I’ve tried more good food, had more good times, and felt more at ease with life, than I ever have before. Also I married my best friend and started posting about sappy things. But I’m still dark and mysterious- horror is the way and all that.

Nearly half of America’s children—48.9%—now grow up in families considered poor, according to Oxfam’s 2025 inequality report. It’s a statistic that should shake the nation to its core: in the wealthiest country in human history, almost one in two kids are struggling to meet basic needs.

I am once again begging you to remember that "illegal" does NOT mean "impossible."

Today someone called and told me they don't understand how this illegal thing was done to them by police because it's illegal, so how is it possible they did it anyway?

Laws are PUNISHMENTS, not PREVENTIONS.

Love to have a landlord lawyer back out of a deal because they believe my client being on SNAP is evidence that my client is a fraudster.

Yes, I can fight it. No, I don't think this argument will work in court. But this is another several weeks of hearings and stress that my client can't afford.

watching the Mamdani campaign from afar during the primary, so many things were impressive, among them the incredible work his online video team was doing to spread the message in fun, creative, educational, invigorating ways that spoke to people

this is my story about how they did it

This is very interesting. So the Christian nationalists also like Eastern Orthodox and for some parishes it’s a bit of a problem! Nazis want to take over. One of the fascists’ spiritual leaders‘ was defrocked for phyletism—confusing church and nation (due to his racism). ocl.org/orthodoxys-e...
