It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.

Any Democrat in a position of power should oppose this loudly and immediately. Make antitrust laws a campaign issue. Fight it every way imaginable. Do not hand over mass media to a creepy dad-son dyad who want to cozy up to an increasingly loathed president bent on maintaining power illegitimately.

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

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

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

I think almost every video editor uses AI in their work today, but when people hear that they think we're using Sora to generate complete videos for us, when what we're mostly doing is having "AI" make interview transcripts

GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE | Teaser Trailer | February 13 - Only in Theaters
GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE | Teaser Trailer | February 13 - Only in Theaters YouTube video by Briarcliff Entertainment

"Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die" was a treat to see on a big screen. Gore Verbinski goes totally bonkers with an old school Terry Gilliam kind of movie. Can't imagine any one else but Sam Rockwell as the lead character. Definitely a dark comedy made for today's world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaSx...

We should try electing some kind of deliberative body that makes decisions about levying taxes.

Really wish I could’ve seen Train Dreams on a big screen in a theater!

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images.

This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

Seriously wonder what is it going to take?? This is not America. Is Congress really going to let him destroy NATO and our alliances since WW II?

That there’s not a massive, credible, instant, bipartisan impeachment/25th Amendment move over these senseless and destructive Greenland threats is a sign of how broken our politics are β€” and especially how broken the Republican Party is.

Everything old is new again with the (sort of) return of Final Cut Studio as a subscription product offering. Lots of AI-assisted features highlighted of course. Hopefully the standalone one-time purchase applications will receive the same features as they roll out? #postchat

Democrats need to understand that they can just say β€œIt’s insane to threaten Greenland” and β€œI don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis.

Say bad things are bad.

Anyone not actively involved in impeaching and no other activity should just resign. There is no government until he is gone. Pretending otherwise props up him, not government.

A passage of text

As he traveled in France, doing as many as five shows a day from the backs of flatbed trucks, he brought battle-hardened men to tears. The song they wanted to hear was "White Christmas": "If he opened the show with it to get it out of the way, he would just have to sing it twice." A Third Army medic wrote to a friend at home: " [W]hen he sang 'White Christmas' there wasn't a sound, not even breathing, and suddenly no one was looking at Crosby, but just at the ground and making a little wish.... And so back to our tents, but the men are smiling now."
Any time officers tried to horn in, Crosby shut them down: he was there for the enlisted men, and he made sure they got the best seats.
"Nothing in his life, he insisted, gave him as much
'pride and satisfaction' as making those 'guys happy for a few moments.'"

WHO GIVES A DAMN?

It’s a public service, right there in the name. It exists as a public good for all the people in this country. It’s not supposed to turn a profit, you dolts.

Go audit the Pentagon and see what kind of return on investment we’re getting there.
