Electric Toogaloo

I keep thinking of that scene in Handmaid’s Tale when her bank account is suddenly frozen.

Men are allowed to own both masculinity and freedom from gender in perpetuity, and I do not want to join them, I want to tear these from their hands.

I don’t know if there’s a more perfect illustration of the utter fucking nonsense that creative pollution by AI will produce than this choice to illustrate the power of Paramount’s new “localization” and “customization” technology by face-swapping Brad Pitt into the lead role of GET OUT

I worked in the US and they don’t understand/want to pay for veterinary care there either. I think the James Herriot mythos is baked into the public perception of veterinary professionals, and we are expected to give a lot away for free.
But also, the corporates can absolutely get fucked.

All of these people are too unimaginative to ever think about life beyond capitalism.
