They love twee schmaltz like Hobbitton, racially coded ontological evils, and clear black & white morality. The fact that even the best of them would be a pale imitation of Boromir and that Gandalf and Aragorn would despise them never occurrs because they're illiterate.

your mileage may vary but my experience on here improved pretty noticeably when I stopped offering explanations to people whose questions sought conflict rather than answers

Does anyone else see stuff behind lock and key and just decide to not buy it? I tried to buy batteries at the grocery store once and the unlocking process took, not exaggerating at all here, 30 extra goddamn minutes of finding the keys, finding out the lock was busted, then trying something else.

Not dissimilar to the irony of needing to be intolerant to intolerance, I suspect that the only way to thoroughly repair America's institutional collapse due to authoritarianism in an immediate sense that could last a long time would require some authoritarianism. Too much poison in the system now.

I really do think the fascism is melting brains in ways that don't seem to make sense. Feelings of helplessness and being surrounded by constant Nazism is leading some folks to lash out in insane ways.

Jumping straight to "You're a Nazi" cuz someone says "That seems odd" about anything is... bad.
the fact that this is all over an extremely neutral throwaway comment about an animal crossing character has dealt me immeasurable psychic damage
Sure a lot of people out there referring to me as "they" and "that person." Good times.

Weird that the BBC would decide the statements made by the President of the United States aren't newsworthy.
BBC journalists have been banned from describing the kidnapped Venezuelan leader as having been kidnapped.

The BBC News Editor has sent this to BBC journalists.

I’ve had porn deepfakes made of me since long before genAI existed, and am (sadly) very unphased by it at this point, but I do strongly agree with this sentiment.

These men don’t do it to jerk off to - they do it as a means of ‘digital rape’. If anything, they jerk off to knowing you don’t consent.
He was of course a MAGA guy. The posts on his account that weren’t replies with AI porn of other women were barely literate Trump support.

The underlying point of the fake genAI nudes in his posts was not so that he could jerk off. One can do that quietly. His point was: “we can do this any time.”

Welcome to the new world:
This video, viewed millions of times on TikTok, Facebook and X, claims to show Venezuelans taking to the street to thank the US for detaining Maduro.

But the video is a combination of four AI-generated clips and was first posted on TikTok by a user who frequently shares AI videos. It's not real.

This is my favorite headcanon and it's a great example of how readers can offer a different reading of a text that the author never considered and did not intend, but is nonetheless validated by the text itself.

"It's actually good that Hitler invaded Poland and thumbed his nose at the evil Stalin, that makes our country look strong."
Some Democrats hate that their party is largely positioning itself in opposition to the operation that resulted in Maduro's capture.

"Everything Trump touches must be bad according to the base," one House Dem told @axios.com

Said another: "It looks weak." www.axios.com/2026/01/04/m...

Can't tell if Trump is to blame or if UPS has always been that damn expensive, but I just paid over $100 to send two admittedly somewhat large (15x15x9 5.375lbs, 20x15x10 3.625lbs) boxes to Chicago and Wisconsin. Ugh.

You ever think about how the Roman Senate kept meeting centuries into the reigns of emperors. Hanging out, shooting the shit, giving speeches, and play-acting that their positions of privilege remained positions of power.

"A woman dressed as a pink Power Ranger hacked a dating site for far-right extremists. She deleted the entire site, but first she made users fall in love with AI bots she ran, thus obtaining information about them. Over 8,000 far-right profiles have now been mapped."
En kvinna, utklädd till rosa Power Ranger, hackade datingsida för högerextrema. Hon raderade hela sidan, men först fick hon användarna att bli kära i AI-botar som hon drev och fick på så sätt ut information om dem. Över 8000 högerextrema profiler har nu kartlagts.

Jeffries and Schumer might well be the most powerful Republicans in Congress. Especially Schumer.
This is *extremely* weak leadership from Jeffries and Schumer. When the wannabe king ignores congress to initiate regime change abroad, they are requesting a fucking briefing sometime soon.
