Saw a post saying "I don't want NSFW accounts to talk about voting, just let me jack off" Buddy, NSFW artists and sex workers are being constantly attacked by a government of nonces trying to distract from their own crimes by pinning the blame on porn. They have the right to speak up about this.

We absolutely need more transparency at city hall and get a full picture of which departments were hit hardest with Zero Means Zero. The mayor’s budget task force was basically DOGE, gutting the equity office and climate funding. Time for a People’s Audit!

“The City of Vancouver should work for the people who live here, young people, families, and those who have been long-time contributors to this city." @stephanieformayor.bsky.social Stephanie Allen has a plan to clean up Ken Sim's mess: www.votecope.ca/news/stephan...

What they "like" is what it stole; same with the Studio Ghibli stuff a little while ago. They like the original thing these machines ground up into slop-paste and regurgitated.

Interesting how one artist uses AI to make music and gets “I hate that I like this” headlines and another gets something much more accusatory. Either it’s all shit (it is) or it’s not (it is). www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

My staff pick is coming up! This Aug 5th at the Roxie on 35mm, one of the best New York films ever made, The Taking Of Pelham One Two Three (1974)! See Walter Matthau bicker with Robert Shaw! See 70s disdain for city government! Listen to bitchy New Yorkers bitch at each other! Link to come!

I just re-watched this! It's so good! It's also full of 'just plain ol' 70s actors!' which was a nice refreshing experience; barely any household names apart from the two leads and a ton of really interesting looking people giving great performances.

The original Taking of Pelham One Two Three is coming to the Roxie this Wednesday on glorious 35mm film! It’s my staff pick! I’ll be doing an intro! Check it out! roxie.com/film/staff-p...

Anyone worth a damn would have quit this show when these storylines started showing up. Gross in the extreme.

What is PBS Kids doing telling 3rd graders to use Ai to write a poem???

never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.

So it's going to sound hyperbolic but hear me out; the Hank Green AI thing is capitalism. Everything is now "Make as much as possible, as quickly and cheaply as possible" and that becomes increasingly difficult, so what if there was a magic fairy that could help? Surely nothing could go wrong...

I can't be sure, but...I think this is advertising a chance for a five-way with elderly quadruplets?

Pixar receives a $26.2 Million Tax credit to keep film jobs in CA, and immediately lays off 10% of its work force, after making over a billion from Toy Story 5, the highest-grossing film of 2026.

Pixar's Layoffs Came Days After Receiving a $26 Million Tax Credit. So I Wrote California Officials.

State tax incentives should create and retain jobs for Californians, not subsidize corporate layoffs.

I'm in my early 40s and *I* lined up at school and got my polio vaccine and Measles Mumps Rubella. It's insane that it's coming back

Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · last wk.

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

Gotta shut down the factory that makes this kinda guy

I'm the business starter, twisted business starter

Hey Guys Due to external circumstances beyond my control, my income has taken a significant cut -- And this, along with my medical issues (including a time sensitive procedure to get precancerous tissue out of my cervix), has made it necessary to make a GFM gofund.me/555dbf1d0 #gofundme #GFM

Donate to Urgent Help for Bills and Medical Needs, organized by Cos B

Hi Guys, its Cosmic I am not usually the one to ask for help, I hate doing so -- but… Cos B needs your support for Urgent Help for Bills and Medical Needs

The anti-data center movement is like "I don't want to pay more money for a thing that will not benefit me at all and will actively make my life measurably worse in a bunch of ways" and the pro-data center movement is like "We want it to be illegal for you to not like us."
