We impeached but never convicted him Had four years and mountains of evidence but never held a federal trial Convicted him at the state level on 34 felony counts and then levied no punishment, not even probation Tell me what, in all of this, would lead me to believe he’ll be held to account

‘The Odyssey’ Backlash Failed Tremendously

Our two investigations into Madison Square Garden are now unpaywalled and free for anyone to read.
WIRED@wired.com · 3w agoYesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.
Incredible moment where Fox News puts up a graphic with all the reasons it opposes the DSA and why people should be afraid of them
Gee. I wonder why people are saying Netanyahu is committing genocide.
I’m happy for New York, I really am, but I’m also envious as fuck. Imagine if L.A. had a mayor and city council who cared about L.A. the way Mamdani cares about his city.
Spectrum News NY1@spectrumnewsny1.bsky.social · last mo.New York City residents are celebrating the reopening of public pools — including Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who jumped into the water while wearing a suit at an East Harlem pool on Saturday. Outdoor public pools will be open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day through Sept. 13.
Hollywood has *always* run on the exploitation of unpaid labour and misery (casting couches, child/animal abuse, interns working 20 hour shifts) The use of genAI is theft. It’s theft from the creatives that CEOs want to replace because it pads their bottom lines. kotaku.com/a24s-bad-exc...

The reason Obama used water from the river for the reflecting pool and not city water is because city water is treated with orthophosphates, which is food for algae, causing massive blooms that produce cyanotoxins that kill wildlife.
If you are a writer who uses AI, you are dead to me. By trying to side-step the creative process with a plagiarism machine (trained on my writing), you are admitting that you have no interest in or respect for your own work. If you don’t respect your writing, why should I?
Laura Keating@lorekeating.bsky.social · 4mo agoI keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines. Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."

Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed our campaign for the US Senate. We’re building a big tent to take on this corrupt system that Ken Paxton embodies.
Team Talarico@teamtalaricohq.bsky.social · 2mo agoBREAKING: Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed James Talarico: “I defended Ken Paxton for years in the impeachment trial and in state criminal cases. But in my view, I think Ken has lost sight of his core mission, which is to represent the people of Texas. That’s why I'm supporting you.”
The GOP takes Ohio for granted. Farmers and small-business owners and teachers and nurses and vets and the elderly know better. They know the MAGA has left them behind - and offered them shitty candidates. See you in November.

Here’s a fun fact for you. A mere 28% of TV scripts are written by women. Only 14% are hired to write prime-time dramas. In film a mere 16% of hired screenwriters were female. (Sources: WGGB and ALCS) Do you see the problem here? #ScriptSkyUK #ScriptSky #WritingCommunity

FOUR HUNDRED female screenwriters they could have chosen from to tell such a sensitive female centric story.

Hey creatives: Folks will remember. If you were aggressively against AI, like Gutierrez was as recent as last year, and then suddenly turn around and go NO I GET IT NOW IT'S AMAZING as soon as you get a project with a big payday? Your peers will not forget that. You will never be trusted again.
