Drake’s lawsuit against UMG over Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us" has been dismissed

"The Court concludes that the allegedly defamatory statements in ‘Not Like Us’ are nonactionable opinion, the motion to dismiss is granted”

They also noted that the song had a ‘catchy beat and propulsive baseline’

"Nama Mithras" - Latin
(Namās Mithra - Sanskrit for Adoration to Mithra)

Yes, I visited the #LondonMithraeum again to bask in the glory of Mithra. This was an old piece when Vidaar assumed the role of Mithra in The Witches of Pompeii artbook.

it was said by someone like half a year ago that learning how to deliver passable if not good work under both immense pressure and short notice is actually an important part of the college experience and an incredibly useful skill and the person who said that was right

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Lol at some people online being like “No one would be mad at this game”

Literally just this year people got mad at that game Relooted, that had an African character taking back stolen artifacts from a museum.

The ignorance (or just delusion) to act like there wouldn’t be any outrage is wild

True story, during the Great Recession, Airbus said that to survive it needed to open some non-EU factories in places with cheap, compliant labor, no environmental restrictions, and no meaningful labor law and after a lengthy internal study the two sites they chose were Bangladesh and Alabama.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that all these data centers are going into communities that have been historically targeted for exploitation and have the least amount of civic power wielded by the people living there.

Why Are Plans for This Alabama Data Center So Hush-Hush?

Officials in Bessemer, Alabama, are mum on Project Marvel, a proposed data center the size of 18 Walmart Supercenters.

James Baldwin to Angela Davis in 1970, discussing white Americans:

Or, to put it another way, as long as white Americans take refuge in their whiteness— for so long as they are unable to walk out of this most monstrous of traps-they will allow millions of people to be slaughtered in their name, and will be manipulated into and surrender themselves to what they will think of-and justify—as a racial war. They will never, so long as their whiteness puts so sinister a distance between themselves and their own experience and the experience of others, feel themselves sufficiently human, sufficiently worthwhile, to become responsible for themselves, their leaders, their country, their children, or their fate. They will perish (as we once put it in our black church) in their sins—that is, in their delusions. And this is happening, needless to say, already, all around us.

The CEO of Bluesky is craven and evil. The only people that build these platforms are infected with the self-reproducing moral rot of capitalism. They have no sense of duty or stewardship. They see their monetary reward as a cleansing justification for their actions.
