Kamala lost the popular vote by 2,284,967 votes. More than 7,000,000 people are on a #SAVE #studentloan plan. Feels like if the @democrats.org took #studentdebt even a modicum of seriously, we might not be in this mess.

Sooo... Everybody on the SAVE plan saw we're getting raw dogged in the ass sans lube by the #Trump admin, yes? Can I get banned here for hoping a certain chief exec gets chlamydia of the mouth and rotting disease? Asking for a friend...

I say this for no particular reason, but the U.S. Copyright just released a two-year study concluding AI generated proceeds are NOT entitled to copyright protection. Which means EVERYBODY can use Tilly without having to pay or get the consent of the company that owns the software that generated it.

There was no problem in Los Angeles. There were people downtown (a tiny area) protesting cruelty. Trump sent troops in to pick a fight.

To alllll the folks out there who are like "more people were deported under Obama," I'm like "so what you're saying is Obama did it better (since nobody felt the need to protest) and more efficiently?"
It's not ICE's mission being protested. It's the manner in which they go about completing it.

I'm an attorney, but I still don't know if the past tense of "plead" is "pled" or "pleaded."

I appreciate the sentiment. However, since 1978, the Copyright Act has expressly protected as fair use the unauthorized copying or use of another's works for purposes of teaching and research. I don't think the WGA presents a winning argument on that basis.
"OpenAI has been referring to [training AI on creative work without paying or getting permission from creators] as 'the freedom to learn.' In New Jersey, it's just called theft."
AI’s Napster Moment May Be Next
In 1999, a groundbreaking site launched that felt too good to be true. And that’s because it was. Sam Altman should take note.

So, I fell down the rabbit hole watching AGI 2027 videos on YouTube last night. Can anybody convince me we aren't headed for a Terminator-style #AI extinction level event in the next two to five years?

Maybe it's just me, but I'm kinda over the "Vibes Era" for motion picture scores and ready to get back to epic, groundbreaking and memorable themes again. Can anybody hum the Inception score? Cuz we've ALL "da da dumdum dum da dummed" to the Indiana Jones on our own without prompting. #Filmmaking

Standard take: Syril and Dedra are definitely into BDSM as a couple (no kink shaming, please!)
Hot take: They're DEFINITELY a switch couple!!

Watching #Andor and figured out WHY it feels like it has #StarWars back on track: what makes evil EVIL, rather than just oppressive, is its banality. It uses the board room instead of space battles to show us the clutch of the Empire. It's the Wansee of it that makes them monsters.
