I almost have to hand it to them for managing to make her look like she’s not one of the most beautiful women alive?

All of this is all very fair but also the internet loves Nemesis

i guess the vertigo relaunch and jim lee's anti AI speech is a good time for me to reiterate my position on dc comics, especially now that no one seems to remember or care who charlie kirk was anymore: www.patreon.com/posts/pullin...

The COO of bluesky, Rose, is following the heritage foundation account on bluesky.

Soyweiser @soyweiser.bsky.social · 4d

She is the COO en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chief_o... of bsky. This is worrying because after the 'we are turning waffles into an anti-trans thing' by the CEO the CEO started to follow a transphobe. Shows a pattern.

Wonder when we find out one of them follows the discovery institute.

Kershaw grew up in one of the wealthiest & whitest places in the country, & decided to use his incredible fame to make sure a huge % of the population knows he hates them.

Taijuan & his family lived in a van, & he uses his platform, time & money to make people feel special & welcomed.

Taijuan Walker is 100x the man of Kershaw, btw.

The Power Fantasy is one of the best comics on the stands right now. @kierongillen.bsky.social and @casparw.bsky.social. Real cerebral take on superpowers and mutually assured destruction.

Remember: These are not MAGA stormtroopers. These are everyday teachers and accountants who signed up to serve their country with their spare time. They're being used as political pawns by venal, un-American, draft-dodging president

Everything we’re dealing with, this fresh hell every fucking day is thanks to the Dems/DNC kneecapping progressives instead of republicans.

Walker Bragman @walkerbragman.bsky.social · 4d

77-year-old Maine Gov. Janet Mills has apparently been coaxed into jumping into the Maine Senate race, challenging Graham Platner in a Democratic primary.

The 40-year-old Platner has become a favorite of progressives and Democrats wanting a more muscular response to Trump. He has raised millions.

This is going around again and it is not true. Like every site on the internet, Bluesky uses machine learning to do a first-pass approximation of image classification to detect and label content. They have repeatedly confirmed outside services do not use Bluesky user data to train their models.

It is entirely possible they have a moderation algorithm that is separate from a generation algorithm, but Bluesky should be explicit about this.
