It's so fucking convenient that they get to "fear for their lives" anytime they want to absolve themselves of anything and when we actually fear for our lives because of them and do anything a scared person would do it's justification for our death.

Remember that the US *does not care* about the people of Venezuela. It is not about "narcotrafficking", or "democracy", or whatever propaganda they have going. It is *explicitly* about US control over oil, capital accumulation, and geopolitical power.

Sometimes I wonder if there's a reasoning behind certain celebrity appearances on Hell's Kitchen other than "just because." Like the latest episode is the one where everyone tries to get a black jacket, and the challenge was setup with appearances by Big E, Liv Morgan, and Braun Strowman...

AI cannot take accountability. AI cannot be “sorry.”
You have no control over the outputs of AI if you did not make it yourself, train it on very specific data sets, and create extremely rigorous control methods. Even then the safeguards are limited.
The creators must be held accountable

Alright, calendar's rolled over, so time to kick off #AlbumADay2026. And since I closed out the last thread with Metallica, figured I'd start here with something tangentially related while I had it on the brain:

With like however many in 2025, I suppose I should reflect on the year before the calender rolls over. It's always felt weird to be like "I had some decent personal stuff happening while the world falls apart" every year this decade, but that dichotomy was at its biggest this year.

Seriously there's a lot of strong art in this volume so far. Like I adore this one page of Taichi, Futaba, and Toma all deep in thought, giving them detailed close-ups that reflect the differences in features such as their eyes.

2025 was… just utterly terrible. Nothing but alternating between despair, anxiety, and being infuriated by how much everything everywhere sunk into chaos while evil was allowed to run rampant…

Suddenly tempted to make a Summoning Salt-inspired video essay about Spain's competitive ham-sniffing scene.
I like to imagine that there is a rivalry between two top ham-sniffers: one, a meticulous keeper of precise traditions, the other a brash bad-boy with a colossal nose.
