"AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." Good lord [positive]

Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

Kim Irvine put up a massive print of digital concept art for the Magic Key Terrace on the wall of the actual restaurant as part of the space’s permanent decor. She’s being named a Disney Legend.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Disneyland raising food prices everywhere when they’re begging locals to come to their empty parks with insane ticket discounts is reallllly something. Good for them. Great business.

Hiring Neil Patrick Harris to host the big Disney Experiences showcase at Expo this year is the most cowardly bullshit I’ve ever seen. Pathetic.

The NYT obituary of Lindsey Graham makes no mention of his effort to overturn the 2020 election by calling Georgia’s secretary of state to intimidate him into manufacturing votes for Trump. The Times, like all news media, is GOP propaganda erasing Republicans’ history as election deniers

Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina and Staunch Trump Ally, Dies at 71 Mr. Graham died of a “brief and sudden” illness on Saturday evening, his office said. Over more than two decades in the Senate, he consistently pushed for the use of U.S. military power overseas.Over his Senate career, Mr. Graham led two influential committees, Judiciary and Budget. As head of the Judiciary Committee, he oversaw the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court after the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. He also played a critical role during the 2016 fight over President Barack Obama’s nomination of Merrick Garland to the court, aiding in Republicans’ success in blocking the pick.More broadly, Mr. Graham was instrumental in advancing Mr. Trump’s effort to reshape the federal judiciary. During his tenure at the helm of the committee, the Senate confirmed more than 200 federal judges, including Ms. Barrett, cementing one of the defining conservative judicial legacies of the Trump era.As chairman of the Budget Committee, Mr. Graham played a central role in translating Mr. Trump’s domestic agenda into legislation. He oversaw the budget resolution that allowed Republicans to advance much of the president’s sweeping tax, immigration and spending package without support from Senate Democrats. The effort required months of negotiations among warring factions within his party before the tax package became law last year. Mr. Graham, along with Republican leaders and the Trump administration, embraced budget reconciliation as the party’s primary vehicle for enacting Mr. Trump’s agenda at a time when Republicans lacked the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster. Those efforts became a defining accomplishment of Mr. Trump’s return to Washington with a Republican-controlled legislature, and highlighted not only the growing influence of Mr. Graham within his party but also his transformation from Trump critic into a steadfast and outspoken ally.

My lasting image of Lindsey Graham will always be when he theatrically declared “Count me out. Enough is enough!” after January 6th — and then got back in with Trump more than ever before for Trump 2.0

Lindsey Graham: “Count me out. Enough is enough”

Graham concluded by saying that “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are lawfully elected and will be the president and vice president of the United States on January the 20th,” earning applause from his coll...

idk… maybe buying a cheap $175 garden statue off the internet and sticking it where every guest can touch it wasn’t the best idea? plowhearth.com/products/gum...

remember when club 33 was super classy and wasn’t constantly having themed events and the merch was always very reserved and dignified?

We once asked our server at Boma why literally half the restaurant was empty when we could barely find a reservation. They replied that they kept a good swath of it open for walk-ups--and that's when we had to inform them that security at ANIMAL KINGDOM LODGE of all places was turning people away.

I will never understand when fans choose the “Disney deserves to treat its guests as inconveniences and make their experience terrible” hill to die on.
