A frame from All Monsters Attack (1969). The monster Gabara (green scaly skin, hay-colored wispy hair, overbite) stands, lush forest and blue skies dotted with white fluffy clouds behind. The caption reads, "But it ain't easy being a monster."

Al Jazeera cracked this "enigma":
This school had many daughters of military officers and soldiers. The idea was to attract them to the school, strike it to draw in rescuers and relatives, and then strike it again to kill them.
OpenAI says its postponing it's roll out of AI erotica (and other adult experiences) claiming they need to focus on work that is "a higher priority for more users."
Like, I suppose, bombs and war.
sometimes people ask "what is the boy -> ceo grindsetter pipeline and why does it ominously end in a dead end" and unfortunately you have to look at the state of a lot of men and their politics around the world right now to see what this means
Like a lot of things rich guys believe and fund, the AI consciousness thing is in part driven by a desire to abscond from the responsibility of what they've made. It also explains why so many of them think we're in a simulation. Doesn't matter if everybody died if we're all just 1s and 0s baby!
NEW: The FBI has been unable to access a Washington Post reporter’s seized iPhone because it was in Lockdown Mode, a sometimes overlooked feature that makes iPhones broadly more secure, according to recently filed court records.
BREAKING: U.S. & Israeli airstrikes bombed the Iranian Tondgouyan oil Refinery, just south of Tehran tonight.
They are really hitting water infrastructure
It's a sign of the times that callousness is now dressed up as intellectualism. That empathy is framed as being as morally problematic as prejudice. That bigotry and hatred is just honesty. That solidarity is treason.

It is still happening. No country is stepping in. Cuba has helped so many movements and people around the world and they are being abandoned to die
The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.
They're definitely conditioning people not to watch these things though, especially with how directs in and around geoff's wacky keynotes clear. Having duds to end the show only reinforces that
This was the first year I paid the show no attention until after it had ended and it served me well (control resonant reveal mega man reveal and I guess gang of dragon were the only things they showed that I was even interested in)
don't post kids online. especially now don't do it. kids are the most vulnerable people of the world, at the whim of every conceivable power, they can't give consent, no expectation of justice, they don't deserve to be plastered in front of the public or harvested for the deepfake csem machine
Hey this is like the most serious oil guy i know and this is worse than i expected

SCOOP: Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.
AI and chatbots and meta keeps winning cause we don't attack the core issue
TO MANY PEOPLE ARE LOSERS!!!!
This new cycle of violence was all too predictable. For months, Israeli officials had signalled an escalation of their campaign against Hezbollah. Despite a ceasefire that ended a devastating 13-month war in 2024, Israel had continued with its bombing of Lebanon almost every day, saying the group was trying to rebuild its capabilities. Hezbollah, however, had remained quiet, aware that any move would inevitably be met with a powerful retaliation.
Interesting admission by BBC

Security researchers have revealed that signals from tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMSs), required in U.S. cars since 2007, can be used to track vehicles from 40-50 meters away using devices costing $100.
TPMSs send a unique sensor identifier that never changes during the lifetime of the tire.
It’s unreasonably important to me that people know JewBelong isn’t some big org, it’s just Archie Gottesman, a hugely shitty racist rich white woman who used to make billboards for her daddy’s company and pivoted to vomiting her bullshit racist crybullying onto them in the name of “antisemitism”
One reason the fascists are using terror tactics, bellowing draconian threats and demanding compliance so loudly is because they have real weaknesses around numbers and capacity. Their grip is weaker than it looks and the resistance they're already getting scares them.
In which a Wall Street Journal op-ed explicitly compares Erdogan to the Ayatollah after the fall of Saddam Hussein and implicitly makes the case for an eventual war of aggression against Turkey by the US and Israel.
When I lecture to students about how the apparently thriving economy of the 1920s was really a house of cards just waiting to be knocked down, one of the points I stress is how much a small number of the very rich were essentially propping up consumer spending in unsustainable ways
