All AI is built on theft, there’s no way to use it that isn’t theft. Using it for inspiration is billionaire-enriching theft. Using it for edits is billionaire-enriching theft. Using it for memes is billionaire-enriching theft. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

I am loving Sandwich Guy’s acquittal because it means one of those ICE fascists had to testify in court that his tacticool bulletproof gear could not protect him from a sandwich. The smell of mustard now constitutes harm.

I feel like the universe just played Fuck-Mary-Kill with Jonathan Bailey, Zohar Mamdani, and Dick Cheney

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

Anyway if you’re in Maine take a minute and go vote to preserve voting.

Criminalizing porch piracy would kill my eternal yard sale business :(

Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.

Y'know that Guardian article which cited an anonymous friend of Tyler Robinson claiming he was the only "leftist" in his family? It just got updated after the "verified source" decided he couldn't remember his "relationship" with the accused shooter well enough to be quoted

💯

It’s like when they thought people were turning mice trans

I'm sure we've all heard the old saying, but it bears repeating: The best time to have hired etsy witches was ten years ago. The second best time is today.

"Political violence" is a term that exists to suggest a moral distinction between "violence against politicians" and "violence by politicians" - so that one can be condemned while the other can be normalized. Obviously, no such distinction exists in reality: violence is violence.

Anybody able to get past the paywall and tell us precisely what words were apparently engraved?

Got a post removed cuz I said that if the situation were reversed the white house would have posted an AI ASMR video of the shooting. I maintain that this is nonthreatening and demonstrably the truth.

When the rivers are poisoned and the last tree has fallen you will discover that you cannot staunch a bullet wound with money.

They're gonna have to replace it all again in a week when they decide that secretary is a girls' job and he's actually the DIRECTOR of war.

This gets progressively funnier with every use of the term "floppy".

At this point my 10-year plan is "I hope the people who invade us to put a stop to our war crimes are kinder toward civilians than we are."

how do i explain to my kids two women being married?? how explain sun go away at night but come back next day? how explain magic rectangle show people talk??? HOW

Hollywood thinks there’s a limit on how many actors I can totally lose respect for. Like if enough otherwise-fine people sign onto this project I’ll have to see it as something other than a fundraiser for transphobia. Joke’s on them, I can be disgusted by unlimited numbers of famous people.

i wish brands would include more technical information in their product descriptions. i don't need to know this was inspired by timeless italian men summering in nantucket who could dress up or down. i want to know the fabric weight, leather tanning method, seam construction, etc.

"Dickfuck no it's not" but in the "How in the absolute hell is it already September" kind of way

I remember the last night that my ex attacked me physically. One way I found comfort then was reminding myself that this was the bottom. Nothing could get worse than this, so at least I have that. I feel so sad for that woman who probably felt that exact same way, and then Rudy Giuliani showed up.

A sea turtle surfacing by a MASSIVE school of rays near Clearwater, Florida a couple days ago. Another post into the BluSky void. Maybe 2 or 3 people will see this one and my time won't have been wasted. I'll keep trying a little longer. #nature #animals #amazing #wildlife #awesome #ocean

Need 600 dollars due to recent personal tragedy. Picture is not related, I cannot figure out how to delete it. The money is not for that. I don’t know what it is even

The Humperdink Queerbaiting test: is the text (The Princess Bride is engaged to Prince Humperdink) subverted by enough subtext (Westley and Buttercup are in love, Humperdink is evil) to make “Jesus Grandpa, what did you read me this for” a valid reaction to the ending?

www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... Excellent bill to support, in essence, credit card processors can't refuse to do business with someone who is not breaking the law.

Have you ever thought "Damn I'd love to read one of Hazel's books but I wish they were a dollar? Super good news for you, we're doing a kindle countdown deal and all my ebooks published through Riptide are .99 cents today, July 25th! And $1.99 tomorrow, if today's no good.

It warms my black little heart to know that my books are getting recced by people who aren’t me.

I have no coping mechanism but this

Just a friendly reminder that we should beat anyone trying to sell us this bullshit scambot snake oil to death with sticks.

June does not speak for The Onion in this instance. As a policy, we are open to extravagant, golden-toiletted sky palaces from all known petrostates.

Stocking up on crystal light packages because a year from now we’re all going to be sitting around campfires drinking pond water and I’m gonna be ~*~popular~*~

I once spent a three hour car ride practicing for how I could disprove an accusation that I had stolen my renaissance faire costume, using only evidence on my person at the faire. No internet. I must emphasize that no one even hinted at suggesting such a thing.

staffers are still cleaning up the Kristi Noem mess after she got gutted/filleted by @chrismurphyct.bsky.social this is A MOMENT. #MustWatch 🧢 @trumpfile.org
