When dressing up as a Nazi for Halloween is even remotely acceptable then you know as a country we have lost the plot.

We can never normalize this:

Citizen Sleeper 2 received the "Code the Rights - Best Game 2025" award from Amnesty International earlier today, at the CEEGA Awards in Poznań 🥳

It recognizes "games that address human rights topics in an innovative way" and it's a really cool initiative:

Also this is still literally a video. A bad video for sure. But even if it was good, it's still a video. It's not a game

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI

Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

Literally going through 3 crises at the same time right now and I'm so lucky I have friends and family who are willing to support. It's crazy how randomly unfair this world is sometimes

The same Portland ICE Landlord also struck a protester with his SUV in 2018 and said he wanted to fight them.

My latest — I wrote about Cuomo’s vile racist speed run in the final days of the mayoral campaign, with gross comments on a right wing radio show, an AI video best suited for 4chan, and his weaponization of white and Jewish grievance to beat the would-be first Muslim Mayor of NYC:

Cuomo goes full gutter racist down the stretch

A deranged AI video and radio comments aimed at Mamdani show his truest colors yet.

When I simply played the game, I don't mind this at all because I was occupied with building a nice "Sims house". But now it's different because I am looking at building a nice "real house". Obvious in hindsight but still surprised me

Using The Sims 4 to interior-design an apartment I might be living in next year makes me realize how hard it is to actually do it "realistically" in the game

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

This person is one hundred percent correct and it’s scary af. We will never “media literacy” our way out of this as a society. We are about to reap the whirlwind when it comes to misinformation, disinformation, and informational warfare.

in Meta’s defense, they never know what they’re doing, including when they renamed the company Meta to focus on the Metaverse (remember that lol)

Dr. Damien P. Williams Wants A Better Sociotechnical Paradigm @wolvendamien.bsky.social · 3d

Meta *literally just* fired 3600 people earlier this year so they could "focus on AI," and now they're firing *600* of their "AI" people? That does Not sound like a company that knows what the fuck it's doing.

Meta lays off 600 employees within AI unit

The cuts come as Meta has been pouring billions of dollars into AI

Seriously, why are you insulting people's intelligence like this. There is very obviously a massive excluded middle between "bland Ivy League corporate automaton" and "still has large Nazi tattoo." There's nothing wrong with having found him appealing. He was! But it's over and this is silly

People make the luddite vs technophile divide too clear cut. In reality, most people hate most technology. The amount of planner, project management, and note taking apps speak to this. Most software and appliance are good at like one thing and jamming in a bunch of features tends to make them worse

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

This conversation was already boiling up 12 years ago when I was in school to study computer science. Love that after over a decade of people raising their concerns about this, the answer is "what if it's even worse though"?
