“This “privacy for me, surveillance for thee” attitude feels like a perfect encapsulation of the future we’re already living in: one where wealthy elites can afford privacy, while the rest of us are forced to live in a corporate surveillance panopticon.” www.ms.now/opinion/tayl...

@lawyeroyer.com Trump’s DOJ is making it possible to buy a gun online and have it delivered directly to your doorstep. A company called GrabAGun stands to reap big profits. You’ll never guess who owns it.

​🚨 BREAKING: Thousands of anti-ICE protesters occupy downtown Los Angeles, clashing with LAPD officers in full riot gear. ​Major highways are blocked as demonstrations spread nationwide.

I’ve been saying they need to take the money from those white producer guys and give it to the 2958287592 Asian animators trying to make tv shows

The vibes may be exciting, but if Democrats are going to win this year and in 2028, they must reject the DSA. If you’re tempted by a democratic socialist this year, think of what use Republicans will make of these victories, and ask whether you want to do favors for fascists.

currently spurred by how often I see artists fumble at the finish line when posting commission openings, events, etc and including examples of graphic design so you don't sabotage all your work

This is exactly it -- if you make a kid use generative "A.i." or an LLM, you're telling them they're not good enough. That their own minds and ideas and experiences and abilities are not enough. That's a terrible, thoughtless, cruel thing to do. Shame on Kaepernick and everyone involved in Lumi.

DEAN WON!!!@deansnuggles.bsky.social · 3w ago

my daughter (11) spends hours every week drawing comics. her art (and storytelling) has improved exponentially in the last year! I can't imagine how harmful it will be to tell kids their art isn't good enough, they need to use a theft-engine instead. we'd lose a whole generation of artists!

NEW: Bethesda has announced a slew of new Fallout games, including Fallout 5 and Fallout 3 + New Vegas remasters. The company also confirmed my scoop last week that it is working with Obsidian on a Fallout game. I spoke to Todd Howard about the roadmap: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The Luddites loved technology. They owned looms at home and would ‘mod’ them to count threads. Their battle was against worker exploitation. The degradation of their rights, safety and wages. They were against a handful of rich businessmen owning the means of production. Sound familiar?

you've heard me gush incessantly about Roo's work and how literally every book of his is a banger and worth buying, whether softcover or ebook, but for real... for real though frictionpress.com/books want something long? KNIVES or VELVET. want something shorter? SEED TAKES ROOT or ANGEL/PEARL.

Roo 🔞 FLAMECON BOOTH E18@frictionpress.bsky.social · 3w ago

this is my call to action to say HEY if you like my work and you've never posted a public review about any of my books, NOW WOULD BE SUCH A GOOD TIME FOR IT 💦 if you're worried someone's gonna cancel you for liking transgressive art just tell them to mind their business and go back to watching HotD

I repeat. Roblox is the worst thing that's happened to the video game industry.

My opinion: Roblox is the worst thing that's ever happened to the video game industry.

Goblins and elves are fine but the idea that people of color can be in these movies is ridiculous?

Bianca Michelle Parker@bumblebigirl.bsky.social · 4w ago

Feels bad that a director of a major studio film is perfectly comfortable saying that casting non-white actors is just something you do to look woke and otherwise isn't remotely necessary

everyone seems to be responding positively to this and i hate to burst anyone's bubble, but i recently went to a Luddite festival in NYC and this is something organizers specifically warned about: don't let capitalists sell your hatred of capitalism back to you

Meta now lets anyone use your Instagram photos in AI images without your consent. SAG-AFTRA recommends that #SagAftraMembers (and all Instagram users) opt-OUT of Meta’s new AI image generation tool, Muse Image. Take action to protect your likeness.

Genuinely I think I link this post every 3 months at this point but I've been seeing random people talking about how with AAA in a bad state it's time for "the year of the indie" or whatever and: it's time for those people to read A Pivot To Indie Won't Save Us auratriolo.com/blog/2025/01...

Don't buy the remake to Assassin's Creed: Black Flag. The game just came out and how does the team get rewarded? With layoffs. Why should we reward Ubisoft with our hard earned money?? Boycott this shit! insider-gaming.com/assassins-cr...

Okay, so I guess people in Texas can't use this app anymore. How many of my friends are going to disappear now? ☹️ Also, this isn't going to stop with Texas. If the KIDS Act or KOSA isn't stopped, this'll be your future, too:
