It is discouraging and disgusting to see a bunch of fellow voice actors - especially those with vast tenures and resumes - who say for "No Ai In VO" who also proudly use Gen Ai to create "ai images/art" on Instagram. You cannot say "no Ai in my profession" and then use it to take jobs from others.

We're living in a culture with a ruling class that wants to use our own pleasures, to starve, bankrupt, and stifle us. This isn't new, and the proven pushback is to refuse to legitimize their censorship in any form. So write your omegaverse shit or whatever, ur unironically doing the lord's work 🫡
Kill the puritan in your heart that pipes up with its shrill little voice every time you see something that you find off putting. Ppl publicly sneering at sex in art – including porn & kink – may as well just carry water for Mastercard, PayPal, and the conservative animus rn. I don't respect it
In complete sincerity this is the way
The author's brazen fetish, presented with such hedonistic flair and and open pride it makes you feel a little embarassed for needing to hide your own passions behind self-effacing jokes in order to preserve a sense of safe, pseudo-ironic detachment
Everybody is so mean and it's always to the wrong people!!!
I know everything feels terrible and doomy but I've been working on surveillance issues for most of my adult life and I have never seen so much energy, momentum, and concrete VICTORIES happening as what we are seeing right now on Flock cameras and facial recognition in venues. Keep. Going.
i swear to god this image goes viral every six months like clockwork. LISTEN TO AACK CAST!!!!
this is what young Cathy Guisewite looked like, btw
what if i do not want to be optimized. what if i want to make mistakes because that’s how you learn; what if i want to do nothing sometimes, what if i want a world that is weird and challenging and has mysteries left to reveal. what if i like taking the long way
"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

EVERYBODY PUT MORE SEX IN YOUR ART RIGHT NOW* *you don't actually have to if you don't want to don't do that bad faith online thing
‘ONE NIGHT ONLY’ director Will Gluck says they cut out “so much nudity” from the film because he thinks audiences dislike sex on screen. “Whenever people now see nudity or very adult situations in a big theater, they get uncomfortable.” (Source: variety.com/2026/film/fe...)
Daaaamn. “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." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...

Oh look! Dark Half, an AI VFX company, is listed in the credits having provided visual effects. Like so many predicted. "AI that holds up when blown up. Created for film and TV, not feeds." Their motto.
ICE CREAM MAN is hot (er, frozen) garbage; a pitiful gore-first midnighter with amateurish execution. Go watch Cooties or The Children instead if you want your "kids murdering adults" fix, two movies Eli Roth so desperately wants to be in conversation with.
I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
The next time you consider making a flier with AI, please also consider that the most intriguing ad I’ve seen this week is a garage sale sign made of particle board with spray painted writing that reads, “GOOD SHIT —>”
I want companies to understand that when I see an AI flier, my brain instantly deletes it. I don't think, "Ooh, I should go to this event!" I rush past it like it's a pile of dog poop. Same for ads with AI models. I assume that if your marketing is cheap garbage, so is your product.

Co-signing this site. Seems solid. For example, if you're buying cookware? We agree: Lodge for cast iron. Le Creuset for enamel. Ignore everything else.
This is kind of an incredible website: Why your stuff stopped lasting, who profited, and what's still built right.

It's a scam all the way down. Taylor Farms gave MAGA Inc. $1M USD less than a week after FDA postponed implementation of food traceability rules. www.patreon.com/mattbc/posts...
My pre-write turned out to be 70% a. CDC's comms have been wildly irresponsible; b. If I couldn't prove lettuce is not from Taylor Farms, I wouldn't eat it; c. Taylor Farms gave MAGA Inc. $1M USD less than a week after FDA postponed food traceability rules. www.patreon.com/mattbc/posts...
We're 93% of the way there for the initial goal (hell yeah)! Let's bring this home for @bjcolangelo.bsky.social, eh? Girl's got more fight in her pinky toe than most of us will ever muster, but that doesn't mean she should have to deal with what's described in the link below by herself.

When journalists asked me "where we will see the effects of DOGE on outcomes?" one of my responses was "during crises...as long as media connect the dots." Well, dots connected: www.wired.com/story/cdc-cy...

“Based on simple math, these outbreak responses—which require rapid, timely responses—are going to be greatly diminished,” the former CDC lab director tells WIRED.

It is impressive that AI might actually scale *worse* than Blockchain.
