I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

“the USPS must turn a profit” makes me want to set things on fire

they put a clause in the fucking constitution about postal service, that’s how important it is

nothing in there about “only if you can make money on it”
🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.

USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.

Amazon looks into expanding its nationwide delivery network and giving up its longstanding partnership with the U.S. Postal Service.

After publishing this article, I've heard from many that CR seems to be using AI to produce dub CCs. Now, thanks to a slip-up CR had with episode 6 dub of The Banished Court Magician, we can say that with 100% certainty: Crunchyroll is using the AI service Ollang.com for its dub closed captions!

As noted earlier last month, the doll is going to be incapable of working this month.

As a result, will need to rely on support again, even if it's just sharing my link.

Thank you all in advance for your help!

My favourite stupid thing about AI is how DESPERATE it comes across.

Every new AI feature tech bros add to programs that make it worse? They make the icons for it all rainbows and glitter to draw your eye like “PLEASE USE ME AND PAY FOR A SUBSCRIPTION WE’RE LOSING SO MUCH MONEY”

A trillion-dollar company going super-cheap on producing a mechanical-sounding dub with no human touch, aura, or spark involved.

It's insulting, anti-consumer, anti-creative, shameful, and just damn embarrassing.

Also... I can't trust anything that pronounces "finger" as "fin-jer."

2:12 in, BTW.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

KOSA will obliterate trans people's ability to have spaces and even communicate online. It MUST be stopped.
Tell your lawmakers to oppose the Kids Online Safety Act- there are better ways to protect kids online without throwing other vulnerable people under the bus.

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

Did you know that big studios monitor piracy? Don't you fucking dare pirate this shit. Do not hate watch through piracy. JK Rowling is a disgusting human being that funds and encourages the hurt, pain and death of my fellow trans peers.

Support media that actually deserves our time and money.

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

ARTISTS! You can DISABLE this feature! Protect yourself and don't assume that you're safe if you're an sfw artist!

This feature can be disabled by going to Invoicing -> Feedback and toggling 'Collect feedback' off there (on a business account, at least)
Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.
