I was going to delete my account, but I thought it would be more fun to leave a subtle trolling up...

This makes sense. It's also scary and not very reassuring of future agendas that this regime is aiming for. If it is true, and all signs and receipts point in that direction, then plan on electricity and water issues in the area.

Trump Isn’t Building a Ballroom
When Trump announced a $300 million ballroom at the White House, something went off in my brain.

"Recreational" shooting can get fucked. If a gun isn't a tool of your trade then you have no excuse to own one.

It's an agricultural implement. It has no place at all in cities. You can't do the school run in a combine harvester. Leave it where it belongs.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about
screenshot of a post on facebook from Alex Lamoreaux, depicting two versions of the "same" photograph of a bobcat in front of a pine plantation, one labeled original game cam photo, one labeling AI processed the markings have been altered on the AI photo, and the head changed and resized text says: Oh! A neat goose hybrid posted to ‘What’s this Bird?’ but when you zoom in on the photos the bill details have been too manipulated by AI photo editing to be accurately assessed for which species may be involved. Scroll on… A cool-looking Red-tailed Hawk that someone is wondering which subspecies it might be - right up my alley! But when you zoom in on the photos literally every feather group has been so heavily manipulated and altered by AI editing that it’s impossible to determine subspecies because the photo is essentially fake now; just a mashup of whatever AI thinks parts of a Red-tail should look like. Scroll on… WOW! That’s a remarkable trail cam photo of a Bobcat! It almost looks like a painting!… but the head looks oddly small…. hmmmm. After some prodding the original photo is produced and sure enough it had been so heavily altered by AI ‘post processing’ that the photo posted was essentially a digital mock-up with totally different proportions and fur markings. No longer the photo off the trail cam; it may as well have just been ‘created’ by AI from scratch. This stuff is killing me. My days on social media are becoming very limited. We can’t even trust simple, everyday photos of animals to be real. The wildlife community needs to quit editing with AI, and we need to start calling out photographers that are using it. Our reality is being destroyed all around us.

A screenshot of a social media post from a parody account styled as a governor’s press office. The post uses all caps and mocks a political figure by describing a fake award in exaggerated, insulting language. Below it is another post sharing a short video clip from a televised event at the Kennedy Center. In the video still a man in a suit is being given a large decorative medal by another man while cameras and a news chyron run along the bottom. The scene takes place on a stage with a blurred backdrop.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

They called these Jan 6 criminals patriots. Trump pardoned them and now they’re right back in the mugshot rotation.

The right’s so-called heroes keep getting arrested. Who could have seen this coming?
