Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

an easy way to understand this is that people make clothes cool and not the other way around. so our judgement of what looks "good" is often shaped by the cultural capital of various social groups. punks, skaters, hip hop heads, etc look stylish simply bc they are cool. thus money is not a barrier.

Imagine still using Twitter.
Users are noticing Twitter/X has added a Grok-powered AI image editor that lets anyone edit any image on the platform, including other people’s artwork using text prompts.

Artists warn there’s no opt-out or consent, raising concerns over unauthorized edits and misuse.

I experimented with following a couple of plant influencers that show face and I should've known better.

I don't have an issue with baking your personality into your branding but you have to balance it - because now you are just barking back bullet points from an internal email 👋

VIE flopping on the 200 is not surprising - Jack's hyperpastiche often overshadows the artist (see also St Vincent's Daddy's Home) but the discourse about Doja wanting to have her "Taylor" moment is very corny (see also racist).

Taylor didn't invite the breakup record. Open the schools.

Seeing NECAs growing Ben Cooper line already at 13 installments makes me wonder if kids really do need more than a couple of dolls. #landfillcore

I didn't know that comedian I was following was a weirdo until yesterday but WOW 🤮 I was just looking up their bold suits then it took a dark turn.

I don't know how they made it out of the nineties but I'm even more confused why they are still working 🙃

public broadcasting my ass.

Our rights are slipping away. Young women nowadays have less rights than my mother did in the 70’s.
This wasn’t as long ago as you might think.
Women couldn’t even have credit in their own name until 1975. Equal rights for all hurt no one.

My algorithm served me this video and I'm glad it did; earlier this year I found Halloween Nutcracker piece of decor (aka design slop) from the exact same season with a Goodwill sticker of 3.99 priced directly on top the Wal-Mart price of $3

lolnvm wait I might watch this weekend just read a spoiler.
would love to catch up to on t*tans2 but I've already seen a screenshot apology somewhere from you know who and I can only imagine what the superfans [sp. aff. crackerpaste] are writing about on reddit.

get in the habit of posting screenshots of your photos to whatever social media you need to instead of the raw photo. #AI is going to extract your EXIF data and use it for whatever they want.

Coming soon for all US residents.
It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

One day after watching this terrific video on upcoming consumer surveillance, I walk into my local grocery store and they're ripping out the old bar codes and installing digital ones.

Pantone is part of the suite of brands like Adobe and Apple that are additional gate keeping necessities for creative professionals and they've aggressively been capitalizing on for years.

So, it's always been fuck Pantone!

I love when people send me a snarky counter offer when I make an offer on their listing, like taking a dollar off.

I usually go buy someone else's listing of the same thing for more then the snark counter wanted and tell them in the comment section that #eBay allows you to add at the bottom.
