“The promise of AI – the promise AI companies make to investors – is that there will be AI that can do your job, and when your boss fires you and replaces you with AI, he will keep half of your salary for himself and give the other half to the AI company.” — @doctorow.pluralistic.net
I like the medicalised framing of the metaphor—asbestos being a health hazard. @doctorow.pluralistic.net’s use is somewhat parallel, I think; something like, “what is left when the bubble bursts? Asbestos.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
There are many ways in which every billionaire is a policy failure, but the most corrosive and destructive way in which billionaires are policy failures is this: billionaires, despite being unelected and unaccountable, possess the power to control - and ruin - millions of peoples' lives.
I am stuck between how much I hate all this for the people who have their work stolen and how much I am frustrated by people who believe they should be able to do absolutely nothing to verify where something is coming from and still be confident it’s going to work.
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving. Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

happy first day of the nhl season to everyone who celebrates !!
One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city. They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.
@lataco.bsky.social first began as a blog documenting local Mexican cuisine. Now, it’s an essential reporting powerhouse to the city as Trump’s mass deportation plot unfolds. Check out the latest from our friends at Reveal: tinyurl.com/4cm2bsdr
"Selling Out Is Bad" is a valuable concept and despite all the baggage and bullshit and elitism it could contain it's actually really good to reinforce the ideal that having integrity when it matters, especially when it hurts, is what good/cool people do. Should be adapted instead of jettisoned.
i don't want to hear your most boomer complaint. what's your most millennial complaint?
I hope we never stop creating art. As long as we still have the tools to create art, we will always have a way to fight oppression

i continue to have a zero-tolerance policy with this shit. stop using spotify. i dont care what you replace it with. fuck your playlists, fuck your discover feed. STOP USING SPOTIFY.
Parasite becomes aggressive. Sure all the musicians looking at our £0.0003 Spotify payouts for our work are delighted this is what our fans’ money went towards instead, and the fans equally pleased. Artists are always very in favour of war, traditionally.
I GUESS WE’LL NEVER KNOW
Aryna Sabalenka says if Iga Swiatek had beaten her, she thinks she would’ve beaten Coco Gauff in the Roland Garros final: “If Iga had beaten me the other day, I think she’d come out today and get the win.” Source: puntodebreak.com/2025/06/07/sab…

*taps mic* Hey Millenials! You know what we're not gonna do? We're not gonna fucking watch that new HBO Harry Potter show because R*owling is a reprehensible human/transphobe/acephobe and we're not giving her money. Okay? OKAY?! Yes, I mean *you*. Also read a different book. Hell, *write* one.
She brought Victoria out to do some acrobatic gay shit. I approve of that. 🤷🏾♀️

EXCELLENT reporting here from @katiebarnes.bsky.social on Sedona Prince’s draft prospects.
Why Sedona Prince is the toughest WNBA draft prospect to evaluate
She's a skilled 6-7 center, but some GMs have expressed doubt about drafting Sedona Prince after accusations of intimate partner violence.
