Probably why these billionaire tech boy ghouls have such a hard on for generative ai. It spits in the face of true creativity, something they’ll never have.

I think one thing folks could do with remembering while debating which part of the sky is falling in EDH is that the Panel is working as intended.

It is providing community engagement and soliciting feedback on ideas. Does that mean they'll be implemented? Not necessarily.

This is good operation.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Did VAR just not even bother to check for offside interference on the Llorente goal?

The audio is delayed on my stream, so the crowd cheer happened right when Ekitike received the ball at the 18 yard box, and I thought "Wow, they love him already... OHH well if they didn't before!" #LFC #YNWA

ICE detained a veteran and U.S. citizen for three days.

They didn’t let him contact his family or a lawyer. They didn’t let him change or shower. They didn’t give him a reason for his detention.

Under this regime, no one is safe. apnews.com/article/us-a...

Colbert will be all right, maybe even better off. The world's his oyster and I'm sure MSNBC and Netflix will come calling. He could stand up the biggest late night YouTube channel in days. But they are just torching the Late Show, an institution, solely to appease a dictator. And that fucking sucks.

Treating trans existence as up for debate and platforming eliminationist campaigns isn't just a matter of "bad journalism" (it isn't journalism at all)—it targets and singles out trans people for abandonment and death.

The conservative movement is lying about basically every empirical "debate" of our time, from climate change to voter fraud to vaccines. Why is it so impossible for reactionary centrists to contemplate the possibility they're lying about trans healthcare too?
No, New York Times. That's not what trans people are saying.

I'm a little late posting about this, but I encourage y'all to look into the TCGplayer Union busting controversy

I left my Channelfireball/TCGplayer writing gig after taking a call with some of the TCG union reps in 2023 and hearing about their poor treatment

Since then, little has changed

yes. they literally blame higher education for a social order that doesn’t give unquestioned deference to people like themselves
I do not think people are actually seriously calibrated for how rabidly anti-university the MAGA right is and how core that is to their policy goals. It is probably the #2 issue after immigration for them, and for some of them it’s higher.

What is a nation supposed to do when its leader is publicly committing impeachable offenses on a daily basis and the impeachment process is utterly broken due to slightly more than half of the nation's Congress being members of a cult dedicated to destroying rule of law

Solomon has suggested that Palestinians have "killed their own people" in one of his many pro-Israel posts but this article suggests that his identity as an Israeli alone is why clubs like Marseille — who are aware of their own city's demographics — might not want to sign him. Bad journalism.
The door to a Leeds United move for Manor Solomon appears to have been left open. But it also appears to have been left open to just about anything. Competition will be fierce but maybe Farke being able to 'channel' the winger's fire will count.
