A little behind the scenes on my art/animation for the AI Slop Police. (also a permalink for this topic as this happens with literally every piece of media I publish on the internet) www.bennjordan.com/blog/ai-art-...

A year of work drops tomorrow morning. 😶‍🌫️

It should be illegal for campaign funds or PACs to buy ads, send unsolicited messages, or send mailers about anything other than the candidate and policies they're backing. What's even wilder is when these candidates won't even show up to debate the person they're smearing!

Just to reframe this: • Your taxes subsidized the infrastructure that was strategically manipulated to help Russia invade Ukraine • Your taxes have heavily subsidized Ukraine's defense • Your cost of living is higher due to sanctions • The US deficit is now at $2 trillion

"Finally" - Not a single television owner on the planet

I'm all set for when Trump randomly declares war on weather forecasts.

Vibe-coding isn't bad, the rampant lack of transparency is. I loosely proposed a formalized grading system. www.bennjordan.com/blog/we-shou...

Cold Stone Creamery considers anyone that uses the term, "Large", as opposed to the highly accepted and more accurate term, "Gotta Have It®", THE ENEMY!

82% of electronics are tested in China. I'm the first person to tell you that safety testing in an adversarial nation is a problem, but banning it with no alternative certification path will just immediately result in a massive increase of untested gray-market imports and "DIY kits".

I found some JS8Call and DECT signals, and people seem to be talking about soccer and vulgarly joking about the plague and ineptitude of the Russian government. This is a relief as all of this would be jammed if there was some type of mass quarantine or information blockade.

Biological War: A Scenario is about... ...wait for it... ...the extremely concerning possibility of a weaponised pneumonic plague strain leaking from a lab in Siberia.

I'm actually pretty freaked out about this. An actual plague bioweapon makes nuclear war seem desirable, and Russia has been developing plague bioweapons for decades.

I'm about to get jammed up live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVei...

Jesus. I guess we can assume it isn't trained on siloed data. 😬

It'd be hard to find a 30 second clip of television superior to this. 🥲

It would've been easy to bash Flock in Senate today, but the reality is that this crisis would've not happened had there been any form of regulation or guard rails. So, let's demand them. And let's vote with the same ferocity we post with.

It's a really efficient song.

It's 3:47am and I'm in the zone. 😎

If there's one thing Warren taught us: If you bootstrap and work really really hard, you can earn enough to retire early and enjoy the second half of your life. www-foxbusiness-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.foxb...

Axon is a profitable company with a strong cash flow. They may clear $4 billion this year. So it was surprising to read about their plan to borrow a billion dollars via convertible equity that matures in 2031. The only sensible reason for this would be a big acquisition. 🫠

Wild day!

If you're a successful content creator, you can't really opt-out of using a social media service. Happy I don't have to pay someone to edit my content for TikTok, I guess. 😂

Wellness check ✅👌🏻

"Hey can I use your mailing list?" "Okay. Here's everyone's info in a csv" WHAT. WHY.

The crypto rug pulling kids don't know what a real job was like.

For years we've been screaming from the mountain tops about how insanely dangerous mandatory ID verification is. Now that half the country is doxxed, it would be a good time to take note of the politicians who didn't listen.

Even Flock has a sugar daddy.

Let's make September "Generative Pyramid Month".
