I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape."

No, and this is upsetting. I like her work a lot. But there is no ethical use of this technology and in an industry where people are desperate for work, taking work away from animators is unjustifiable.
Ava DuVernay's 14th, about the 14th Amendment, uses AI to animate old photos that are in the public domain, and the filmmaker wants people to see the documentary for themselves before deciding how they feel about it.

NEW SERIES ANNOUNCEMENT: About a Place in the Kinki Region
The โfound-footageโ novel phenomenon, now in manga form!
After the editor of an occult magazine goes missing while researching the spooky stories surrounding a certain area in the Kinki Region...
Author of edge novels like 'Almost Transparent Blue', occasional filmmaker, director of 'Tokyo Decadence' and the man behind the book and screenplay of Takashi Miike's 'Audition' passes away too soon.
This owl was getting banded and tagged by the Rocky Point Bird Observatory. For the owlโs safety, he/she was wrapped up.
These photosโฆ๐คฃ๐ฆ. So cute.
Linda McMahon, the United States Secretary of Education, worked diligently to ensure children in her and her husband's "employ" could continue to be molested at WWE. She did this for the same reason she got the Secretary of Education job: Republicans like it when children are sexually abused.
Here's the district court ruling allowing a federal lawsuit to proceed against the U.S. Secretary of Education and her husband for negligently hiring and retaining sexual abusers who preyed on underage male staff during the 1980s-90s.

Outstanding.
More of this, please. Elon Musk is a white nationalist troll using the billions he made off government contracts to destroy this nation.
Light. Him. Up.
Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."
SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.
I see we're having a debate about whether it's okay to go back to "X," the site owned by a trillionaire fascist who is currently bankrolling the GOP's midterm, throttled Ukraine's war effort, and still winkingly allows vast amounts of CSAM on his service
Answer: No, what the fuck is wrong with you
Update: without explanation, and after being suspended for more than an hour during peak mobilization time, Zuckerberg's Instagram restored the No Kings account but we still lack admin access. More to come.
Rest assured we will not stop organizing against this regime and its collaborators.
Elon Muskโs actions are quite literally killing Ukrainian civilians, on an ongoing basis. And yesterdayโs Telegraph scoop on this reported that he was terrified of a consumer backlash in Europe.
If you buy or use any of his products, now is the time to boycott Musk.
If you want to watch your favorite horror films like you've never seen them before, you owe it to yourself to watch @factionman.bsky.social's thrilling experiment FAMILY GO TO THE BAD HOUSEโwhich stitches shots from 387 total features into a single terrifying story. Thoughts on @cinapse.bsky.social!
