One of my less popular beliefs is that you aren't serious about dealing with the problem of our big tech oligarchy if you completely disregard capital punishment for C-suites and founders. Thiel, Zuckerberg and Musk are all guilty of treason by any reasonable definition.

"he would not fucking say that" is a useful phrase that can be applied to so many fandom versions of characters but I doubt it could ever be truer than the post that originated it

NEVER update windows right away just delay it the longest it allows you

Avoiding AI is about to be a superpower.

Woah.

"this edible ain't shit" two hours later:

Inception. Nolan glazers are the fucking worst, but they were ESPECIALLY bad with this one. Me: I didn't like it. Them: You didn't like it because you didn't "get" it. No, I didn't like it because it wasn't that fucking good & y'all overhyped it like crazy.

Whats a movie everyone fucking loves that you despise? It doesnt have to be objectively bad, you just objectively DID NOT. Heres one for me since Ive been on a Barbara Loden kick lately-

AI is a scourge. But it is important not to trust "AI detectors". I lost regular freelancing work because my client insisted I used AI to write copy (I didn't, but their AI detecting software said I did). This is a great thread with an excellent example of why these detectors cannot be trusted.

AI RANT Following the cancellation of three major debut book deals over AI suspicions, I decided to put my own (needless to say, 100% human-written) prose to the test. My detector of choice was Originality AI, and the results proved to be jarring, to say the least. 🧵1/5

Fun reminder - in two weeks Sony is going to delist 500+ digital movies. If you bought one, they’re going to vanish from your library too. Oh, and no refunds, you didn’t actually own them in the first place www.pushsquare.com/news/2026/06...

Sony Will Permanently Delete 550+ Movies You Already Paid For

STOP ADDING COMMENTS IN PAYPAL STATING ANYTHING THAT WHAT YOUR PAYING FOR IS A COMMISSIONS ESPECIALLY A NSFW COMMISSION!!! THESE FUCKING PROCESSORS WON'T STOP PUTTING THIER OWN DISLIKES AND MORALS ON WHAT WE FUCMING BUY!!! Spread the Word!!!!

If you're in fandom, please engage with the fics you read, the art you view. You don't have to read/scroll everything, but if you *do* read/see it, please let the creators know. I am seeing so many people burn out because engagement keeps dropping. It feels like tapping the mic - 'is this thing on?'

Wattpaders... I am not looking forward to the influx of whiny, entitled bitches to AO3 who will be flagging fics via the report system for "problematic" tags and demanding that AO3 cater its UI/filtering to them and theirs.

I can think of better uses of time and money than trying to fight a god.

VICTORY IN FRANCE. A media ban aimed at children that requires the ID of everyone has been ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL, ruling that it violates free expression and privacy. "Protect the children" does not justify forcing every adult to prove their age just to access the internet. KEEP FIGHTING.

I think about this a lot.

low-key can believe Is also part of Big Tech’s hatred of physical media that they can’t control

Is there no evil AI bros won't lower themselves to? Buying up second hand books to scan all the data and then fucking pulp them?!? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

If you wonder why I HATE GenAI so much, it's because they HATE us. We said 'no' but they took them anyways, don't they sound a lot of rapists? I am sorry, if you think you are just using GenAI for shit and giggles, no, you are not so innocent.

transformers fans, don't forget that skybound is an imprint of image comics. do what you will with that information but this is something to consider with your continued support of skybound.

Popverse@popversesays.bsky.social · last wk.

What changed? Image Comics is working with Warren Ellis again after publicly cutting ties in 2021 due to sexual misconduct allegations. Details: thepopverse.com/comics-warre...

ah yes the rodigoatse

There is no depth of scum-feeding that AI wankers will not sink to.

If you missed the solar eclipse, this is what it looked like:

Bro. People are cool as fuck.

What are the people using AI doing with all the time they’re saving?

Your work will be called "porn" the moment it is convenient to power to define it that way. Solidarity is our only useful option.

Bruno Dias@brunodias.dev · last wk.

if you are any kind of creative or artist or writer you *have* to understand sex workers and porn/erotica artists/authors as being members of the same class as us. to the extent society recognizes a difference between "legitimate" art and porn, it's only as a tenuous, convenient, temporary fiction.

It isn't that we do not have enough to feed the poor, it is that we can never have enough to satisfy the rich.

Feral Millennial Communists of Late Stage Capitalism@feralcommie.bsky.social · last wk.

The biggest conn capitalism ever pulled was convincing us that working 40 hours a week and still worrying about the electricity bill is normal. We have the technology, productivity and wealth. Being exhausted and broke isn't a technological problem. It's a distribution problem.

No matter how good we get, it's always an issue🖌️

If you're pro-AI art you're anti-progressive. It's as simple as that.

Looking forward to a big piece rounding up all the ways people are starting to reject technology and step back into the analog world.

Brandon Friedman@brandonfriedman.bsky.social · last wk.

Went to parent-teacher night at my kid's middle school this evening and got told that the district is now moving away from technology in the classroom and going back to pen and paper. I love that this excellent news of rebellion came on the same day as Zuckerberg's AI supremacist screed.
