anyway read Family Values by Melinda Cooper to learn how the US replaced any semblance of a social safety net with a tacit mandate to marry and breed in the Clinton 90s and has only gotten more fascist since

I met a player at my LGS who I only ever saw playing Bant decks.

They had a variety of decks and played several different formats, but only ever with Bant colors.

When I asked them why they never played black or red, they sighed wistfully and said "Well, I'd love to, but I'm Rakdos intolerant."

On a beach in Oahu, 26 ancient Hawaiian petroglyphs—18 of which depict anthropomorphic stick figures—were exposed that were likely carved 600 years ago, a few centuries after the first Hawaiians arrived.

For so long I’ve said that Thomas Chatterton Williams is a stupid man who can’t write or think, but there are too many people, including people I know, who are invested in his positioning that the race problem in America exists because Black people are too invested in it to move on

Proof that bullying people for using AI works and we should bully them as hard as possible.
Being seen as too risky due to social fallout for Disney's investors really is the writing on the wall for AI in creative spaces

I don't like praising Disney but this is a genuinely a good call for reasons the investors probably cannot comprehend

Unbound/Boundless owes me $15k+ on a book that in its first royalty reporting cycle had sold around 3k copies of its 5k copy print run

of which I have not seen a single penny. They also haven’t even reimbursed me for postage costs I incurred mailing out the arcs in the US at their request
So, this Unbound/Boundless fiasco. I was going to be polite about it, but after this morning’s email: no

“Just calm down and let people enjoy chatgpt.” Sorry, no. I find it creepy that folks are treating a machine that mimics human speech as their friend / therapist. It is feeding you lies. It is destroying your thinking abilities. Shut it off. Talk to other humans. Go outside.

NFT are dead because none of you actually bought or tried to use them.

LEARN FROM THAT.
Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

When men scream at me on here for having the standard that we shouldn’t elect Dems who are accused of sexual assault because “they’re better than Trump,” it reminds me that men benefit from rape culture because they can always compare themselves to a man who has done something worse

The Massachusetts House has taken a major step towards banning trans athletes in sports.

It would be the first blue state to do so.

The amendment has been inserted into the state budget bill.

This is a five alarm fire for trans people in Massachusetts.
