EXCLUSIVE: We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items.

It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores too.

Our months-long investigation with @consumerreports.org and @groundwork.bsky.social found it could cost families $1200/year.

I also think it's important to keep in mind that despite all corporate claims otherwise, excellent movies and TV shows are only ever the result of the focused labor of a group of artists and craftspeople. Studio mandates curate a slate, but only artists can make it great.

Mad Men 4K
December 3, 2025 at 2:07 AM
My new favorite genre is sloppy "remasters/re-edits" that show the guts of how film is made.

I watched an ER ep on hbo where 2 characters in a hallway are looking down at their feet...where their brightly colored end marks are.

New goal to be the gal they're supposed to edit out but don't. 😂
HBOMax has started showing a 'remastered' 4K Mad Men and they’ve messed things up so during Roger’s oyster vomit scene you can now see the crew men with the vomit hose on the right

ANYWAY

Buy from small businesses
Buy from independent creators
Buy passion projects
Buy commissions
Buy art

In a society that's decided that money is final word, be aware of where yours goes and to support what

Yes it sucks, I don't like it either, but pretending it's not a thing does not help!

1/3 Massive efforts are being done to ensure states do not regulate GenAI.

Regulations like CA’s AB-412. A transparency bill that terrifies Big Tech!

On Dec. 8th, there is a major hearing on this bill.

We need as many folks to show up! Come join in support of creatives!

In self-interest but also general interest, folks: Black Friday is coming up, and small publishers/independent creators will always be a better choice than megacorps.

When the sales drop, please remember that!

I got to attend a Film Fest screening of Wake Up Dead Man (Knives Out) & I loved it. Director/writer Rian Johnson talked about making it which was lovely but I especially enjoyed seeing it in a historic theater with other people who really love movies. 10/10 would recommend the movie to y'all.

A federal court ruled that ANTHROPIC illegally copied MILLIONS of books to train its AI.

All authors and publishers whose books were downloaded by Anthropic from pirate websites are subject to receiving compensation. This could involve your work.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
