Its strange to be middle-aged, married, and still feel lonely. Like, so lonely it hurts even though I'm never actually alone in the house (especially with 3 cats and 2 dogs). I'm not generally depressed or anxious about anything unless it's significant and imminent, but I can't shake feeling alone.

Here is what people don't understand about AI. Our country has complete and total collapse between 14% and 16% job loss. Thats what our projections are for widespread riots, marshal law, and politician being dragged into the streets.

Right now companies are getting some pushback from employees... but that pushback is slowly eroding. We are very close to becoming a surveillance state and people finding out that the police were never here to protect us, their here to protect private property from us.

Stuff we can do about it: Push legislature to make sure gen art/writing/animation can't be copyrighting. Push for Gen AI regulations against using images of real people to stop AI misinformation slop and porn. Push for laws to protect job against replacing people with AI.

Here is what people don't understand about AI. Our country has complete and total collapse between 14% and 16% job loss. Thats what our projections are for widespread riots, marshal law, and politician being dragged into the streets.

Our trucking industry is between 6 and 8 years away from being fully automated. Once that happens we hit 10% in this country. And that assuming no other jobs are lost between now and then and you know thats basically impossible.

Thats how long we still have a country. So the reason some people like myself are so interested in protecting the arts. Once the arts crumble and AI is fully embraced as a norm, it's that much easier for other jobs in other areas.

We saved @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social by standing up to Disney, maybe Kimmel can bring Sarah on to pitch her case to us directly, and maybe drum up support to save the new Buffy the Vampire Slayer Sunnydale show? How about it Jimmy? Sometimes even Buffy needs saving! #Buffy #JimmyKimmel #Hulu

DC comics is dead. No way Gunn will want to work for a Trump mouthpiece, the vast majority of artists and writers at DC are libers, if not leftists. With luck they'll try and sell off DC to Disney... I hate to say it, but thats the best case scenario.

Can we all just agree that it appears that in America, its safer for everyone to choose the bear over police, and not just for women? While especially true for women and minority groups, it still holds for everyone. Pick the fucking bear or get shot in the face.

“The Department of Health and Human Services has canceled seven federal grants that supported programs aimed at reducing sudden infant deaths, prenatal substance exposure, birth defects and adolescent mental health problems, after the grants’ recipient repeatedly criticized federal vaccine policy”

Maybe if the DNC put forward a resolution urging the education of Socialist concepts like company workers over company shareholders, moving Americans out of poverty, and equal protections for everyone instead of holding a vote denouncing the term "Socialist" we'd be in a much better place?

We are literally giving power to the GOP because they can label ANYTHING as Socialist which helps people and we just helped them with demonizing the term they'll use against it. Hakeem Jefferies has to go.

So was the real reason Dems caved on shutdown the fact that they had these new emails to release? I was going to dismiss this thought because of all the healthcare and financial assistance Americans were to lose, and then I remembered that red states will take the bulk of that hurt. Now I'm unsure.

Why isn't anyone talking about the fact that the breasts on Trump's illustration clearly suggests that the figure is a young girl? Like, most crude drawings overly exaggerate the breasts but here Trump drew the figure of a 13 year old.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say

Brandon Friedman@brandonfriedman.bsky.social

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

Can anyone ID this girl Elon has brought in as an Assistant Manager for the US Treasury Macrodata Refinement Team? The only name we got is Ms. Huang but it might be an alias. I understand she has at least two sets of social media accounts!

So can we impeach Trump again for crippling the FAA on day 1 because Elon had grudges? For forcing FAA employees to submit to a "MAGA" pledge with a 1 week deadline or they'd be fired and given a severance package. Many of whom just quit and took it early. With NO PEOPLE trained behind them.

Elon thought the FAA could be run JUST LIKE TWITTER. He sacked Twitter employees and made the rest sign pledges to him. Thats what Trump did... Remember what Twitter was like for a few weeks? Well, the FAA is crashing just like Twitter. Only lives are now lost when the system crashes.

DEI hire does not mean hiring an unqualified person and instead hiring an unqualified minority, it means you interview people for the job who are previously overlooked and underrepresented and pick the best qualified for that job. If nobody is qualified THEN you can look elsewhere.

Wanna hear some irony? The cost to insure healthcare CEO lives, like the next CEO of UnitedHealthcare, will go up dramatically since C-suite executives are usually insured up the nose as an employment perk. The fact that they'll get screwed by insurance is gold. #UnitedHealthcare #LuigiMangione

One thing that I haven't seen addressed regarding the UnitedHealthcare assassination was our justice agencies response with manpower which far exceeds any murder of a poor person I can think of. Its just another example of how rich people have access to another level of justice than the rest of us.

Lioness and Sweatpea have been the breakout hits for me this season. Lioness was good last season, but this season is another gear. I loved Sweatpea so much I'm now digging through IMDB for anything else by Kirstie Swain.

You are up to date.
