Trump on the US running Venezuela: It will not cost us anything because the money coming out of the ground is substantial. We’re going to take back the oil.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

bragging because they believe they can get away with it. "yes it is in fact an occupation, yes it is all about oil, and what can you do about it" comically upfront
Trump: "We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure and start making money for the country. And we are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."

the thing is, if genAI & LLMs were just a niche little tech toy for like a few thousand techies to play with, it'd probably be fine. people would have concerns, but it wouldn't be a BIG deal.
but they have been declared The Future, the whole of the future, and so now we have to fucking fight it

This has always been a extremely tiny screeching minority demanding that their bigotry dictate that no one else's children can learn of the existence of LGBTQ people.
1. 4 months ago, The Supreme Court gave families a right to opt out of LGBTQ+ education in schools.
Now, in Montgomery County, Maryland, where the case originated, the results are in.
Only 43 families out of 160,000 students have exercised that new right.

I'm just trying to dispel misconceptions from artists. Be happy, use tools to make your art less stressful. As I said, it's only unethical when you copy other people's work and try to convince everyone it's yours. That's why so many artists hate AI—this tool does exactly that.

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown:

Wanna post this again because I still see some people saying "they just want to ban rape, what's the big deal?" and this is an excellent explainer.

It's really amazing how much of the effort to retaliate is focused on people who're like, "Here are the things he said."

pointless to say this but the democrat leaders should be out there banging the drum that they're going to tear these agencies apart & prosecute every single masked fash who ever did some shit while refusing to identify themselves
Masked men jumped a San Bernardino family in unmarked cars, opened fire, and shattered their truck windows—all while the family was just coming home from work.
The feds later admitted it was CBP, but the family says the agents never showed warrants or IDs.

Great, Jessie is reinstated, as they should be. Now, about the Palestinian accounts…
I’m back! I saw your messages on here & elsewhere—thank you all <3. I’m deeply disappointed in @bsky.app moderation; equating pushback against people like JKR with the harm they cause to trans ppl only enables more violence. I’ll talk more soon but even a day away from social media has been healthy.

Gonna say what I'm thinking, as inarticulate as it may be, but the religious right wants to punish queer people for being queer and appears to be leveraging every institution it can to do so, including economic pressures; only heterosexuals can do business
NEW from me: This morning, a Stripe customer representative confirmed to me that they do not allow LGBTQ content and haven't for a month--at first.
Later, after putting me on hold, the representative confusingly said they were wrong and that they don't ban LGBTQ content, only "abusive" content.
