Right. The publisher / platform owner still owns the means of production. Holding a copyright that you are coerced into providing to a publisher (or "self-publishing" platform) is MANIFESTLY not being in control of the means of production.

It is wildly fucked up that they label their incredibly unsafe product as "may sometimes be wrong" — falsely, might I add, as they are not "wrong" inasmuch as they are accurately guessing the most likely next token in a given sequence of tokens, the only thing they are actually designed to do.

You find that written in a journal in an atmospheric horror game. There are splatters of chunky green slime all around the room. Someone has smeared the words "I DON'T KNOW" on the wall in slime.

I vividly remember the episode where they ate foraged mushrooms and died in sequence and it was accompanied by laughter. I remember the locker scenes but none of the jokes. I fear that watching it would feel like a fever dream.

Also wild. They could just shut their mouths, but they have to say with their entire chests, "anarchy is when I pull down the crab directly above me, and the further I pull them down, the more anarchyist it is!"

The accusation that writers are petty bourgeoisie is WILD. Writers are artisans sure as any wheelwright. The fact that so many have to resort to taking on the role of a kind of small business owner is actually an artisan being forced to be a merchant AND a promoter against their will!

It will definitively say that the event should not have happened and that a person who was responsible for such an event might get into trouble and should really think about what they've done.

Thanks for letting me know! I hate this! Will not fuck with Katy Perry or shit she's involved with.

This whole thing sounds made up. Everything sounds made up. The volume of bullshit in the world is growing exponentially, devouring our attention.

I mean, he sounds like a shitty dude. He's claiming impairment and there's a mountain of evidence to suggest that he was of sound mind for an extended period of time and capable of elaborate planning. Also, don't eat snacks on camera, that's weird. Coffee or water, sure. Snacks? Weird.

Don't worry. I'm sure he won't be lavishly rewarded for this like all the last guys who did this exact thing.

If there's one thing I learned growing up around evangelicalism, it's that they operate under an incomplete theory of mind. They think that as they had an Evangelical-Christian-God-shaped hole in their souls that everyone else has that same void. They don't realize the molded a God to fit into it.

Every version. The Greek textual witnesses use "ἀντιχρίστου" which can be anglicized to "antichristou," meaning exactly what it sounds like.

Lizza is making it clear that he could hide a lot of unethical activities in the profession so long as he wasn't cheated on by his partner with multiple men.
The entire marquee journalism just as rotten as the people they cover.
