It's amazing that it's taken this long for the investment folks to notice there's actually no profit here

Yet another news network falling under the control of fascists. Make sure y'all delete @cnn.com from bookmarks, unfollow it on everything, and block it from your news feeds.
PBS News@pbsnews.org · 5d agoParamount officially closed its multi-billion-dollar deal for Warner Bros. Discovery on Tuesday, creating one of Hollywood's most valuable properties. The combined company, called Skydance, folds such titles as HBO Max and CNN under the same umbrella as CBS and Paramount+.
If the Democrats had competent party leadership this could have been one of the biggest midterm blowouts in American history. Instead, we get the guy that failed to do anything about the US' slide into authoritarianism claiming victory for the people that organized despite him

one thing i understand more and more as i get older is that i do not have to post every half-baked inane thought that blows through my weary, addled brain. i do it by choice. i can stop anytime i want.
Corporate media is hostile to you and your way of life. It must be left behind. All of it.

So I finally got around to the Dungeon Crawler Carl books and they're great and everyone should read/listen them, with one BIG, incredibly disappointing caveat: If you buy the audiobooks you're gonna hear Will Jordan's idiot voice in book 3 and a glowing plug for Critical Drinker at the end. blech
@sweetshop.app For the DRM-free comics, am I able to download and move them onto my kobo reader?
i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward
Seriously, this thing is awful. I love how my new phone is *less* functional than it was yesterday.
MrPajitnov@mrpajitnov.bsky.social · 2w agocool cool cool... My phone says I have to use Gemini now instead of the voice assistant that has worked fine for years. So far Gemini has failed to do anything I've asked it to do, instead turning every request into a bad Internet search that it responds to at full volume. Fuck Google and fuck AI

i used to like apocalyptic books and movies, but i don't now, and i think it's cause i realized five years ago that if the apocalypse happens i'll still have to work
going insane because you traveled interdimensionally or met aliens or met god is understandable. but going insane because you used a computer chat program is just embarrassing
It’s Batman Day. People call Batman ‘66 silly but let’s remember that Christopher Nolan ends The Dark Knight Rises with a slightly higher budget version of this classic scene from that movie.
It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.
Schiff voted to confirm Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and one of the first things she did was cut $1 billion for a program that paid local farmers to deliver to food banks and schools.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov · 4w agoLater today, the Senate Agriculture Committee will again vote on a Farm Bill that falls short for California families. We need a bipartisan farm bill. Badly. But this isn’t bipartisan and doesn’t meet the needs of our people.

Two conclusions can be drawn about Ed Sheeran here: -He is a total coward -He thinks it's more important to get paid than to take a stance on genocide Either way, dude can fuck right off. I hope the rest of the tour fails.
Pop Base@popbase.tv · 4w agoEd Sheeran has released a statement on Macklemore being removed from his tour for speaking up for Palestine: “I am not complicit. […] Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn't mean I don't have [my own opinions], and it doesn't mean I don't care.”
And every single Dem who won't stand up for trans rights will be a fucking coward about everyone else's rights too. Fuck every single one of them. May their careers end in shame & may each of them be yeeted to the curb.
PBS News@pbsnews.org · 4w agoAn increasing number of Democratic officials in red and blue states are distancing themselves from their party's unflinching support for the transgender community's policy priorities, such as allowing athletes to compete on teams that match their gender identity. https://to.pbs.org/4xO5rWu
Worth noting, as Macklemore was banned by NFL owners in what will be dubbed "fighting antisemitism", that Kanye, who - sold merch with swastikas - said on Alex Jones that he idolizes Hitler - tweeted he was "going Defcon 3 on Jewish people" is currently on a multi-city tour of NFL stadiums
Prem Thakker ツ@premthakker.bsky.social · 4w agoNew: Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran. Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.
for the past fifteen years I have tried to explain to people how the president has very little control, especially in the short run, over inflation and gas prices never contemplating that one would be stupid enough to make the kinds of policy decisions that actually could have an impact
Asawin Suebsaeng@swin24.bsky.social · 4w agoI need younger generations to understand how weird it is that trump is such a unique terrible fuck up that it’s actually correct to blame the president for a demonstrably shittier economy and costs
There were so many things I used to feel obligated to support for the sake of community, until the organizers started doing AI nonsense. Now I am free to ignore them guilt-free. So, in a way, LLMs HAVE simplified and streamlined my life. Just not in any of the ways its inventors intended.
