holy shit i know that place, i'm going there tomorrow :D

I should feel something

31 months and counting since my last job

screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao

I'm watching an adult creator get systematically cut off from every income stream by payment processors and now debankment could be on the table. She makes legal content. They are trying to shut her up and hope that we'll shut up too.

We must get louder. Call Visa and MC. Tell them this will stop.

smh these sheps and sneps fighting

A four panel comic strip. An anthropomorphic wolf man runs into an office where three others are working at their desks. He says, "The fire marshal is coming for annual inspections!" In the next panel, a seated wolf is playing with a remote control airplane, and a smoke detector with an open battery compartment is mounted on the wall above him. The first wolf says "Put that 9 volt back in the smoke detector!" In the third panel, an anthropomorphic dog holds a power strip while standing next to a sculpture comprised of multiple power strips. The first wolf says "Hide your..."Daisy Chain Power Strip" sculpture!?" In the fourth panel, a bear proudly displays his t-shirt which reads "I love storing combustibles around radiators." The first wolf, in exasperation, yells "CHANGE YOUR SHIRT!"

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

I am being asked to tell my department which pieces of lab equipment should be supported with backup power because they expect rolling blackouts and brownouts in 2026 due to increased energy demands from AI. In case you're wondering how my day is going.

Tumblr post from user arahir: i just can't convey the frustration and sorrow that it's been to grow up at first without the internet and then watching it bloom into this useful, fun, connecting force you sometimes spent time on, only for it to degrade into this constant oppressive waste of time and energy where people are constantly pumping out algorithmically designed content for max algorithmic appeal and even the most simple search generates either no results or an infinite abyss of ai generated slop none of which is usable or correct. we briefly had a library of alexandria and then fed it into a paper shredder so advertisers could sell a random mash of pulp back to us at a premium.

14 years after leaving spawn KurtJMac made it to the far lands. I was in my mid 20s when he left. Many musings and chats on space travel since and he's finally there.

⚠️This is the Jimmy Kimmel monologue that got his show pulled.

Not hate. Not celebration of death.

Just the truth: Republicans rushed to blame the left before any facts about the shooter or motive were known.

Keep sharing it. Spread the truth.

it kills me knowing what’s needed is for people to double down on bucking any demands for “civility” because they understand these demands are training people to surveil & snitch on their neighbors and an exploit to intensify authoritarian control over our thoughts.

bluesky's admin/moderation reactions are the #1 exact reason why i see this site the same as twitter - if everything on this site is controlled by one organization then we're not one bit better than where it started in 2023

Folks are checking out earlier cause what’s the point of sticking around. I’ve started to notice it in the diversity of furries where I only see the ones who have “made it” with spendable income whilst the ones who struggle fade from sight and from mind.

YAASSS, good boys :3

that machine means youre supposed to pay up and support your public transit smh 😤 or the Wiener Linien ticket checkers will surround you and get you
