Thinking about the reel on Instagram (@mayamelissapottery) where she muses about whether people who are supporting genAI "art" would be equally happy watching AI sport.

It's a great point, well made.

What oil, what land, what assets did Venezuela steal from the US? And when? A social media post from an alternative reality.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

🗣️ @redstateupdate.bsky.social (Murfreesboro): “It costs you a lot to be racist— health care, livable wages, due process… the racism is worth it for some people. And somebody’s making money hand over fist by dragging (brown) people out and locking them up in camps 🎯.”

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about

Good. Like any industry, if you can’t make a profit without paying for your labor and materials, you’re not a viable business.

Watch attempts to use the horrific mass shooting in Australia as “proof” that gun safety laws don’t work

Bondi is Australia’s first deadly mass shooting in 3 years

Brown is USA’s first deadly mass shooting in 3 days

And the 15th deadly & 389th overall mass shooting of 2025

There is no comparison

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

KLAXON: an anti #trans clause has been smuggled quietly into the Republican healthcare bill. They continue to block people from lifesaving treatment—refusing abortion access and also refusing #transgender care #LGBTQ
Tucked inside the Republican bill for health care subsidies, a clause that would restrict the money from being used for abortion (with exception for rape, incest or life of the mother) or for "any sex trait modification procedure or service."

"Now that I've hit everyone with ruinous taxes, I'll dole some of it back out to my political supporters as welfare payments."
Trump: "I'm delighted to announce this afternoon that the US will be taking a small portion of the hundreds of billions of dollars we receive in tariffs ... and we're going to be giving and providing it to the farmers in economic assistance. We love our farmers. The farmers like me ... $12 billion"

Remember, kids, using people's preferred pronouns is "Marxism." Centralized control of the economy that leaves people increasingly dependent on cronyist government largesse is, apparently, good ol' free-market conservatism.

Qobuz?
Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

I don’t know why this is so complicated other than the fact that Americans do not have faith in the outcome of debating moral questions. Calling this a war crime gives first degree murder too much dignity.
"When there’s no war, you aren’t committing war crimes when you kill people indiscriminately. You’re just a straight-up murderer."
A war criminal without a war
It's just murder.

The "DOGE is gone" articles are clickbait but this one gets it closer to the truth: DOGE is not gone, it just claims to have "no centralized leadership" anymore -- in other words, its leadership is hiding in an attempt to avoid blame.
DOGE no longer has ‘centralized leadership’ under White House tech team, personnel head says
The team that was altered to house DOGE — formerly the U.S. Digital Service — is also still doing its own technology work across agencies.
