#doctorwho varada sethu is an amazing actress but belinda deserved so much better im sorry... no consistent characterisation, sidelined for ruby and then to top it off suddenly reduced to the role of "mother" in frankly misogynistic writing.

Marvel could pay for my healthcare for the rest of my life for a fraction of 1% of profit from Spider-Man Noir, a character whose original comics I edited. For Peter David to die in medical debt, co-creator of Spider-Man 2099 and writer of countless seminal Hulk and X-Factor comics—that's a disgrace

Hayao Miyazaki, who said AI is an "insult to life itself," would probably hate all the AI-generated art ripping his studio's style that people in the AI industry are now obsessed with www.404media.co/hayao-miyaza...
Hayao Miyazaki, Who Said AI Is ‘Insult to Life Itself,” Reduced to AI-Generated Meme by OpenAI
The internet is flooded with AI-generated images in the style of Studio Ghibli, whose founder said “I would never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all.”

All Labour MPs have reportedly been called in to Downing Street for talks with Starmer about the expected disability benefits cuts.

If you have a Labour MP, this is the time to email them. Tell them your objections. Tell them your experience.

just so great that labour is going to do austerity again. think of how well it worked the last time! why tax the rich when you can starve disabled people?

To be a little real for a second, the USAID news is almost (just almost!) too much for me because I was born in one of those refugee camps. I was a difficult birth, and I know my mother got her natal care in that camp. This stuff absolutely devastates me.

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.
What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

Hello, all. In a time where everything is so much for so many people, I feel guilty asking but my family and I are in need of help.

Even if it is a signal boost, any help is appreciated.

I love you all, and I hope you are all safe.

Long past time to stop otherizing American fascism. It is a thoroughly American movement supported by America’s leading institutions. The rot runs deep and attempting to paint it as foreign is to diminish it and neglect the root causes
