There is literally no better example of textbook fascistic thinking than "Who cares about human rights when the rich are doing so very well"
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

Been watching the crypto bubble pop and cackling with barely contined glee. It was always doomed to fail once the next grift established itself, and genAI is that new grift. Just wait for the NEXT grift to come along to watch the genAI slop bubble pop next. Grifters are migratory by design.

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum.
Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams

AI can't make you an artist. Only time can do that. And I hear AI users talking about hundreds of hours, but no. That's not TIME. Not the kind I'm talking about.
It takes years. Which is where people are like "years of free time is a privilege". Sure.
Except the time wasn't free, it was taken.

Decades ago, I really admired this guy's work, and during a dark time, he reached out to me and was incredibly kind. But gotdam, Doug crashed out so hard and so bad in so many ways. It's so stupid. What a sad little man.
Hey, if you need a reason to not support any upcoming Earthworm Jim stuff.....you can go on X, The Torment App and see the creator Doug TenNapel talk about how great AI is and quote tweeting everyone who disagrees.
I wouldn't suggest it though.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.
