How long until there's a movie where an action hero beats up ICE like Indiana Jones beats up Nazis?

There is a Donald Duck comic where everyone in Duckburg gets a home computer powered by AI, which not only makes everyone in Duckburg stupid and lazy, but also lets the Beagle Boys steal everyone's personal information for blackmail.

The comic is from 1983, but seems oddly relevant today.

During 2025, we've had:
* #Roblox protecting pedophiles.
* Governments harvesting our IDs and erasing our #privacy.
* #Youtube promoting AI while unjustly terminating real human channels.
* Credit card companies abusing their power to #censor people and content.

Any problem that has a permanent solution is a temporary problem by its very definition.

"Humans are the only animal species that allows the stupidest members to lead the herd."

The biggest problem with having a corrupt ruler is that there is no higher-up who can fire them.

The concept of an "unwritten rule" is weird. If a rule isn't written anywhere, then there is no evidence that such a rule even exists.

"Create the problem, sell the solution" is just a fancy way of saying "blackmail".

The neat thing about the saying "I hope life is as kind to you as you are" is that anybody who is offended by it is automatically a hypocrite.

You may have heard of this already, but #youtube is using "age verification" as an excuse to demand people's ID's under penalty of restricting their services.

Please sign this petition and protect your online #privacy.

Funny how "think of the children" never applies to preventing school shootings or arresting pedophiles.

HANDS OFF MY MONEY, a 4 page zine I assembled to inform my local comrades of the Collective Shout censorship, is now available for free on my Ko-Fi Page. Feel free to download, share, reupload, and (most importantly) distribute this zine far and wide. Info is USA-centric.

ko-fi.com/s/2b0207bbbc
READ THIS ZINE IF YOU: - Hate Capitalism - Play Viddy Gaymes - Respect Sex Workers - Love Furries - Are Queer - Jork Yuor Peanits Up In The Club This Is Your Chance To YELL AT BIGOTS!!! (An image of three bags with the Dollar Symbol that have flames behind them follow the bullet points.) What's Happening Collective Shout, an Australian hate group masquerading as a feminist activism non-profit, is pressuring financial companies such as Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, and Stripe to censor media by telling them to deny payments to sellers of sexual content, which applies to both real life pornography and fictional content. Wonder why the internet sucks these days? It’s because of laws like FOSTA-SESTA and the bad faith arguments by puritan Christofascists that seek to limit what small/indie creators can express in their art. Sex work is work. Video games can be art. They don’t care if a sex worker provides for their family or if a developer’s autobiographical game about their struggles with eating disorders and dysmorphia wins industry awards, that’s all “evil porn” to them and they want to silence our voices. Their censorship has forced platforms like Patreon, OnlyFans, Fansly, and more to restrict what creators can create and monetize for a living. Most recently, they have forced Steam to remove games and itch.io to de-index thousands of projects and withhold payments to creators, many of whom are queer and/or trans. “Violent video games cause violence in real life” is a myth, and the same applies to sexually explicit games with extreme kinks. Don’t fall for their fascist talking points! What You Can Do Scan A QR Code For Contact Info & Message Scripts Prioritize making phone calls, especially to Stripe and Paypal, and take up as much time as you can by being polite but annoying to the call center workers. Folks have reported doing calls over 25 minutes long by pretending to be clueless about the situation. The longer you make their average support call duration, the more the boards of these companies will have to take notice! If they tell you to leave an email, tell them you want to file your complaint on the phone anyways. Secondly, signing the petitions on ACLU and Change.org helps as well. The more signatures we can get on them the better, and it only takes a few minutes! If you prefer to write a letter, then try to send a physical piece of mail. Our goal is to get these companies to understand that they don’t get to decide how we spend our money. (Three QR Codes with their URLs follow the subheader.) More You Can Do The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) is rearing its ugly head again while the UK is battling their own Online Safety Act (OSA) that has already gone into effect. These bills are NOT about protecting minors: it’s about control and censorship of information. Multiple people in the UK have found that they can no longer access Reddit communities that are pro-LGBTQ or pro-Palestine, which can endanger folks looking for help and advice. Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn has also said a key goal of KOSA is to “protect minor children from the transgender in this culture and that influence.” US citizens can still fight KOSA 2.0. Sign the petition from Fight For The Future and find out who your representatives are to tell them to reject KOSA. Don’t stay silent. Share this zine with a friend. Support sex workers & queer creators before it’s too late. (Two QR Codes near the bottom link to the Stop KOSA petition and the US Federal Find Your Representatives website.)

Yet another failure of capitalism.

Payment processors #Visa and #Mastercard are coercing sites such as #Steam and #itchio to hide all NSFW content from their libraries.

Please sign this petition and do not allow big money companies to control our content.

One problem that music has compared to other creative hobbies is that you can't listen to anything else while you do it.

Does anyone else still remember those "Please don't read this, tomorrow will be the best day of your life but if you don't send this to five other people something bad will happen" type comments? I wonder what happened to them.

It seems AI is now being used to steal people's voices and faces to create forged video evidence.

Yet another reason why AI was a mistake AND yet another reason to never use your real face and voice online.

Here's a fun game.
1. Find words that are grammatically similar.
2. Compare them to one another.
3. Discover a word that nobody actually uses, but makes perfect sense nonetheless.

Repentance, repentant, to repent
Reluctance, reluctant, "to reluct"

Are there any MMOs that allow you to choose a nickname that's separate from your username?

I think it would be useful both for getting around the "no duplicate usernames" rule, and for eliminating awkward NPC dialogue such as "I am Xerina. It is an honour to meet you, WeedSmoker765".
