I miss the BB Tumblr era nerdphobes so bad. The stuff we were saying about poor Steve for putting up Jackie in the double was insane lmao
I'm so not built for this app reality TV squad but still I persevere (all of you love the white male nerd archetype and I hate that the most after the bigot archetype)

This is why hating and mocking AI relentlessly and publicly is vital work.

We have to ensure we don't replicate the conditions that created Stephen Miller.
Stephen Miller: "If Somalia keeps failing, if these societies all over the world continue to fail, you have to ask yourself if you bring those societies into our country & then give them unlimited free welfare, what do we think is going to happen? You're going to replicate the conditions they left"

United Airlines asking for volunteers to check in their carry-ons for "free" when they've already charged folks $50 to have a carry-on... I will never forgive Democrats for the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978

After a banner year of Warner Bros putting unique, filmmaker driven original movies into theaters and getting giant audience turn out for them, the corporation that now owns them would like you to know that actually you didn’t like this and that what you really wanted was to watch at home.
As Netflix confirms plans to buy Warner Bros. for $82.7 billion, the streaming service has said it expects shorter theatrical runs for movies in future "to meet the audience where they are, quicker." https://bit.ly/3XCvY8M

The Oscars & other film awards should require a film to have had a full theatrical release to be eligible for contest.
Maybe it'd help a little..

Meaning Netflix and Disney hold more than 40% of the US market share (probably over 50 if we add Paramount and Amazon MGM)... I can't believe I might see the death of the movie theater in my lifetime. Devastating

"...Newsom has vetoed our menopause bill, not one but two years in a row. But that's OK, because he's not going to be governor forever. And with the way he's overlooked women, half the population, by devaluing us in midlife, he probably should not be our next president either."

This is disgusting, cowardly garbage. Let trans women play tennis. Everyone who entertained 'just asking questions about men in women's sports' should understand that this was never, and is is not, about sports, but pretending it was sure did pave the way to erasing trans people from public life.

This really lays bare how absurd the manufactured war theory is:
A shipwrecked survivor of a Hellfire missile strike on his small burning vessel is supposed to do... what, exactly, to show he is not "in the fight"?
When there is no war, applying the law of war is an exercise in absurdity.

If your choice is between an existential risk to your organisation, vs being a fascist collaborator, and you make the difficult choice to be a collaborator...
...then you are still a collaborator.

Like, I'm sorry the fascists are giving you difficult choices. But that's what fascists fucking do. The only legit answer is "fuck you make me". The only answer that shows you have actual fucking principles not preferences is "fuck you make me". And that sucks. But here we are.

Let me get this straight: we trained this guy to be an elite killer, abandoned his country to the Taliban, isolated him, arbitrarily banned him from working and so left his family unsupported.
I don’t know if there’s any more efficient way of producing a mental health crisis outside of torture.
