An under discussed drawback of moving back home with your parents is that your cell phone will be forever therafter bombarded with spam offers for your parents. 6 years after moving out again: still getting hit up for them as often as for me.
Stuart Fails to Save the Universe is … fun. Kind of Chuck Lorre cribbing from Mike Shur.
Huh. This may be true on some superficially, but if you really push on political matters or the political theory underlying its choices, I’ve found AI really conservative. pro-capitalist, heteronormative, and patriarchal…. Though it really hates to be called out on the last two

real. fuck your ai overview
There is no ethical consumption of Harry Potter. And not in the usual "no ethical consumption under capitalism" way. In the "your fandom is now comprised of hate symbols" way.
s. e. smith@sesmith.lol · last mo.JKR explicitly said she considers anything Potter-related, even fan-made, endorsement of her politics. And every time you engage with this franchise, you signal to the industry that there's still money in it and they should keep pumping out content from full-cast audiobooks to book box partnerships.
When we finally gonna start getting news coverage on the discriminatory biases of ai? The homophobia is systemic and deep.
Agree with @jamellebouie.net that it's pretty clear Elon Musk wanted to eviscerate USAID *for the purpose of killing as many African people as possible.* Mass death wasn't an accidental byproduct of his "deep state" paranoia; it was a key mission of DOGE. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/o...
Coordinated in that no one likes him and no one wants him anywhere near able to directly exercise power. A crony is always a crony www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Knives are out for Vance in the GOP. His allies say it’s a coordinated ‘op.’
The vice president has faced a barrage of attacks recently that are unusual for their intensity and how early in the political calendar they are taking place.

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti
France really needs to learn what cultural appropriation is. This after that horrid little Zoe Saldana musical…
The Hollywood Reporter@thr.com · 2mo ago‘Zorro’ Review: Jean Dujardin Delivers Throwback Charm in MHz Choice’s Farce-Forward French-Language Swashbuckler
Can we just delete the phrase "Dark Academia" from culture? Just be honest and call it "Harry Potter Core." That's at least honest about the actual instigation and core problematic tension of the "style."
Whoever it was that suggested the musical artist Bright Light Bright Light to me on here: Thank you!
Trump is about to CataPulte his grift and graft on the internaltional scale with the new DNI….
even @anthropic is producing deliberately biased ai products. you can't even get Claude to engage with removing heteronormative presets. i am absolutely disgusted.
Been using Claude (hi, @anthropic.com) the last 2 months. finding the model incredibly shortsighted in its build/interface.. It feels designed to be disposable rather than reliable. can't be expected to actually execute on the advertised skills.

This is what we get for letting a Florida snowbird be president.
hollywood as a whole needs to put another 2 weeks of time recovering between cosmetic procedures and the public appearances they anticipate. not looking forward to the plastics convention that is the oscars red carpet.
I'm constantly trying (/failing) to get this point across. If you're a trained expert in a field, then it may be worthwhile to question the scientific consensus of your peers. If you're not, the scientific consensus is absolutely the best you can do and it's arbitrary foolishness to disregard it.
UK: Prince Andrew arrested. South Korea: Former President Yoon sentenced for life. Brazil: Former President Bolsonaro serving a 27-year sentence. USA: President Trump demands $10 billion payout from taxpayers.

I will not be charitable to law professors who malign my colleagues, make false claims about the law to the Supreme Court, and think that torturously tendentious social media activity counts as scholarly engagement. If Ilan wants me to be nice to him, he should start by acting like a scholar.
I just heard someone say on TV that use of the term "concentration camps" to describe ICE facilities was "very strong language." I think ICE's concentration camps are very strong abuses of human rights.
