Imagine living your life in constant fear of anything not being white men. Sounds exhausting and pathetic.

Been slowly working on adding my collection of ebooks to a Calibre digital library and the NUMBER of books whose "official plot description" is ONE SENTENCE about the book and PARAGRAPHS of "kudos for the book and author"

I OWN this book and I have NO IDEA what it's about 🙃

I wrote about a new Nazi party that seeks to criminalize all human virtue, and how that means that human virtue is the greatest weapon against the new Nazi project.

The Crime of Human Virtue

Sometimes it really is as simple as good vs. evil. This is one of those times. Human virtue is our great crime against the fascist project; it's also our great weapon against it.

GPT-5 is better at resisting liberal ‘pressure,’ the company says.

As well as this, I feel quite strongly that the increased prominence in recent years of social media influencers who engage in nothing but ragebait content and harassment has proverbially sucked all the air out of the room, content mills producing bullshit at speed who dominate gaming conversations.

“Why isn’t anyone covering our indie games?”

1. The gaming press has been decimated by business suits, and the whims of an uncaring search engine behemoth
2. Doing the job means you get death threats and harassment
3. There are more games released in 1 week than there were in entire months in 2015

Re. Roger's voice not being "quite there yet" in the opening cartoon b/c it was the first thing Fleischer recorded; I like to imagine that's just how Roger im universe "performs the character" of Roger b/c he's not as confident an actor as he's just naturally funny

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Will definitely be picking this up first time it goes on sale

Honestly Andrew's fix for the movie of basically removing all or most of the dialogue and turning it into a rock opera with a focus on trippy techno visual is FANTASTIC and I'm now retroactively kind of mad it ISN'T

But seeing him bleed is was what convinced them he was a User. So programs DON'T bleed, only humans brought into the computer world

Honestly, I'm PRETTY sure they're "supposed" to be "digitized" not Fantasic Voyaged, but the bleeding plot point REALLY throws a gear into the analogy

Long-standing code exploit in Unity Editor results in several temporary (and some permanent) delistings

An exploit in the Unity Editor that has left the potential for local code execution attacks open for the past eight years was patched earlier this week. While the exploit was first identified back in June, the patch that negates it was just released on October 2nd and developers have

CBS News will now be a megaphone for the country's most vicious crusader against free speech, and the most relentless propagandist of far-right disinformation.

Cancel Paramount Plus, call every CBS advertiser until their only remaining ads are for MyPillow and Daily Stormer.
