"Will Jared Leto's sexual misconduct allegations impact his big studio movies?" I don't know, will his intensely off-putting 'the beard stays on' persona and repulsive dead-eyed acting impact his career? Apparently not!

Just look at the quality and craftsmanship of these gables, each one lovingly made and installed just for you. Act now and we’ll throw in a scarlet letter for your local adulteress.

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things I’ve seen anyone on this site do.

In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

I went to see The Master Plan tonight, a play about Alphabet subsidiary company Sidewalk Labs’ failed attempt to create a data-driven utopia on the Toronto waterfront in 2018. A riveting play about urban planning and the clash between bureaucracy and Silicon Valley arrogance.

If you ask someone today to name the builder of Hadrian's Wall, they would give you a funny look. But historical memory is odd, and right up to the 1800s we forgot who built it.

Until in 1840 John Hodgson, an obscure Northumbrian clergyman, published the LONGEST footnote in history... 1/22

long stretch of worked roman stone on Hadrian's Wall.

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.

They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

Stephen wreathed in snakes. Shot on a Fujica GS645 with Kentmere Pan 200. Developed in a monobath. Snakes: Fritz, Leonard, and a couple whose names I've forgotten.

AT Proto has become a sort of ideological vaporware; a way for Jay Graber et al to run a social media platform while claiming they don't run a social media platform. This is just another iteration of the Silicon Valley monoproduct: power without accountability.
