I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.

Because I'm in too deep, it's easy for me to forget how insane this all is. An anonymous Facebook account claiming to represent rogue members of the National Park Service has posted fake spy-like "code messages," and amassed millions of followers for doing so.

A very informative read that I highly recommend! The term "sex addiction" is being tossed around by influencers and grifters today. I've been noticing a lot of "download my app to stop your addiction" on places like ig and twitter. These accounts are using your shame and guilt for clout and money.

Seen people talking about “sex addiction” and “porn addiction"? These are not real medical diagnoses. Dr. Amy Marsh explains, with information for people who are concerned about the role of sex and porn in their lives. www.scarleteen.com/read/sex-s...

Text: "Want the fact on porn and sex 'addiction'? Dr. Amy Marsh sets the record straight on a misunderstood term. Read it on Scarleteen," alongside a person squinting one eye into a magnifying glass they're holding up to their face.

"what can I do?" Call your reps and tell them to vote no on the Online Safety bill package because things will get worse the more censorship laws are allowed to pass. Tell your reps that payment processors must allow legal content. Go yell at youtube for their shitty TOS.

It gets revived every 6 months as a discussion but yeah even if PR was meant to be an Americanized and dumbed down adaptation, it still has its own merits and introduced global audiences to toku Incredibly talented and passionate people still worked on those productions and shouldn't be ignored

Power Rangers is such a weird title because it was produced by one of the greediest, most horrible people on the planet, but also features the hardwork of genius directors (Sakamoto) and a cast of underpaid actors learning and shooting fight choreography in a single day.

Important for all Gen Con attendees that if you've sat down to play a satisfying session of a game this weekend or simply connected with another gamer about shared interests, you've done what this convention ought to be about, and everything else is largely pompous noise.

it all just sort of makes sense, now, huh. all this shit was just generated by AI and he believed it all enough to parrot it on his podcast, and his fact checking team had to clean up after him this is a really massive blow to popular science. Everything is in question now. does he realize this?

YouTuber Hank Green Admits He Has Unhealthy Relationship With AI After Facing Backlash Over Recent Video 'The level of dopamine I've been getting from interacting with LLMs is not healthy for me,' said Green

So apparently some Hollywood reject is trying to trademark the most common word in the fandom: fursona. This impacts every furry and more importantly fursuit makers because they're trying to trademark it under Class 25 (Clothing / Robes) which includes costumes and subsequently fursuits.

Increasingly, Soylent Green serves as one of the best metaphors for AI -- it's taking all that we are, as people, chumming it up, and feeding the slurry back to us. We're told that we need it, it's nutritious, it'll save the world, even as it damns it and us.

Man, I wish I could consistently draw and that the economy wasn't turbofucked so I could have more than 14 subscribers on SubStar and could be popular enough to make an acceptable amount of money each month. Depression blows.

Very off brand for this account and this is a bit of a longshot: Anyone here in the ecology or chemical ecology field in the U.S.? Preferably east coast? Been desperately looking for new work to no avail and too much about job hunting these days is "who" you know not "what" you know

I really should open c0ms soon. Etsy orders are nice but man I can only advertise so hard and my pride month sale was kind of a bust. Shit is hard out here for artists. (I gotta work on some SECRET PROJECTS too but shhhh)

Gundam Zero is also not the 0 Gundam, which is not The O from Gundam. And even though it's not a prequel to 00 it is like the sequel, but that's a coincidence. This show's called XARX (pronounced Alex), which is not the Gundam Alex from 0080. Those 0s are also unrelated to this Zero.

Gundam Zero, is not a prequel to Gundam 00, no, the RG has nothing to do with model kits we swear. Please play our video game.
