I'm fed up with hearing about Claude unless you mean this guy.

"May His Candle Shine Forever Bright" My tribute artwork to Eric Bauza, featuring one of many characters he voiced in his too short life, Roy Fox from #Kiff. Forever a legend. #RIPEricBauza #Fanart #Tribute #RoyFox #CandleFox #DTVA

Mel Blanc would have been proud to have seen Bauza carry the torch he'd ran with, even for the short journey he did. Rest in peace, Eric Bauza. I can't believe you're gone so soon. 💔

Congratulations, good people of Brazil, and indeed of the world! We kept the broligarchy out of one of the most critical parts of the planet... for now. Don't get complacent.

This should have been it. This should have been the moment it all came crashing down.

"10, 2, and 4 -- That's Cans, Gallons, and Bottles!" #PatreonEarlyAccess Jessica has a drinking problem. Don't worry, she's not an alcoholic. She just... drinks way too much soda. Will be uploaded publicly on the 31st. www.patreon.com/AdlerPoG/pos...

Remember that South Park episode where Randy gives himself testicular cancer? Liberty Biberty looks like the resulting nutsack of a minion giving himself testicular cancer.

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

I've got a great feline that this is gonna land feet first!

But guess what? Farmers could be bringing BACK nature and thriving if paid to rewild Foresters could be producing timber AND natural wildlife habitat Fishermen would benefit HUGELY from no-take MPAs Our NPs could be spectacularly rich, if rangers were properly supported. There are no excuses.

What can we do? Stop using Google Use alternative browsers like Ecosia Browser The browser that funds tree planting Be climate active while you browse www.ecosia.org/browser

NB. Do NOT take the above 👆 as 'doomism'. Capitulation is not an option. 'Doomism' is defeatism. We have not even begun to fight yet. And I mean fight. If necessary, we must go to war - total war - to save ourselves from those who would destroy our climate and our lives. No room for quitters.

Doomerism is such a plague. Used to do something similar with climate change and eventually realized how wrong-headed it was. With enough of us, we *can* effect change, even if it is just stemming the tide.

We don't have to choose between food security and forest conservation. Agroforestry proves we can have both. Food on the table. Carbon in the ground. Life in the soil. #EnvironmentalSustainability

One reason to conserve nature (among hundreds) is that its genetic resources are valuable - in clearing rainforests, we may be destroying a cure for cancer before it's even discovered But how can biodiversity-rich countries be expected to conserve nature if they don't get a share of the profits?

The data center fight, the climate fight, and the fight for the arts ARE ONE.

If I had a billion dollars, I'd just donate like 99% of it to protecting forests and funding renewable energy. I have no need for that much money. Nobody does.

Felling 250K trees for any reason should be penalized with nothing less than the perpetrators being jailed for the rest of their lives. That includes those who approved the project, that includes the loggers, that includes anyone who supplied the machines to commit the atrocity.

The problem with #climate doomerism isn’t necessarily that the risks are exaggerated, but that it may create a self-fulfilling prophecy – by engendering helplessness, rather than galvanising people. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

…yeah, I think I am gonna split it in two. I'll still upload the entire season 2 video as one video down the line, but I'm splitting its initial uploads into episodes 1-13 and 14-26.

If he actually said this, rare billionaire W. He still sucks for ripping Will Vinton's studio away from him, but at least he respects the arts.

As I've said before. 'Hexed ripped off Owl House' is the new 'Lion King ripped off Kimba'.

I thought the idea of flying cars was cool. When I was a kid. As an adult who has survived a car accident, and still has pain related to said accident, I realize how deadly, silly, dangerous, and expensive such an invention would be.

The script for the Season 2 Ranking is Magic video is now complete! ...I underestimated how much I love this season. Fillies, gentlecolts, and all in between... this video is gonna be almost two hours long, and I'm honestly considering splitting it into two parts.

A lot of facts, actually. But one of my favorites is that the pirate in Hook that gets thrown in the Boo Box is Glenn Close in drag. youtu.be/xFEQKk5odIg?...

If anyone can point me to forks of PCSX2 and Dolphin that don’t have Claude code or any other kind of AI code in it and are compatible with RetroAchievements, I’d much appreciate it.

(sees favorite Simpsons quotes trending) I'm gonna go against the grain and prove the 2000s also have banger lines. "WELL EXCUSE ME, FOR HAVING ENOURMOUS FLAWS THAT I DON'T WORK ON!"

OP-ED: Paris Agreement hasn’t saved world, but it successfully rebranded apocalypse, trading 4C of doom for 2.5C of highly problematic. Renewables are booming, yet politics remain fossilized. It means survival is technically affordable, assuming global leaders stop haggling over the receipt.

I can't put into words how much that "too late for climate change efforts" makes my blood boil. 1) People like Bezos have resources to help make it *not too late*. 2) It's not too late if we, um, try?, 3) Even if warming, Earth's climate is orders of magnitude more habitable than any other planet.

I feel like I need to point out as a professional climate scientist and former professional astrophysicist that it is not "too late" for climate change efforts on earth and any other solar system body would be worse for humanity than the worst-case projections of climate change

the nihilists, the cynics, the apathetic, the doomsayers, they all serve the current system by being useful idiots

The 'boiling frog' thing that comes up in discussions about climate change has been long debunked, BTW. Stop using it unless you're talking about what frogs actually do when the temperature gradually rises (i.e. they try to escape the heat like any other creature).

None. Because there is none. When I think artificial intelligence, I think sentient robots. 'Large language model' is the more accurate term for what we call AI. LLMs aren't capable of a damn fucking thing on their own and the bubble needs to pop yesterday.

2022: *sees the release of three film adaptations of Pinocchio* Internet: "Father, when can I leave to be on my owwwwwn?"

If not for Disney, it'd have been Fleischer we look up to. Fleischer is the Tesla to Disney's Edison.

there is still plenty we can do to mitigate the worst effects. In retrospect we should have switched to "capitalism is never going to stop we need to focus on workable mitigations outside the international capitalist hegemony" fifteen years ago instead of taking an all or nothing approach to targets

It's way too late to *stop* climate change. It is not too late to mitigate some of the damage. Telling people we can stop this when it already happens makes you look as bad as the outright denialists. Tell people the truth; The situation is very very bad but that doesn'y mean things are over and

"Would ya please pass the jelly?"
