I'm concerned that you'll just end up having to essentially make a bespoke, organic farmer's market meets comic convention for real human art/photography/creation moving forward.

I despise AI imagery, and likewise am increasingly encountering it in random places. I'm starting to feel that this is like fast food supplanting home cooking. Technically still food, but really kind of a crappy regurgitation lacking the same nutritional value.

Pro-tip, imagining sound can assist with rhythm and timing during animation

Annoy your spouses freely, with reckless abandon, knowing your methods are good and right

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

Minnesota pet rescues adapt to rising animal surrenders amid ICE detentions The Animal Humane Society and The Bond Between are seeing more animals who suddenly have no owners. They're also connecting communities with vet care and food.

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

the fact that the NRA is offering even this incredibly mild level of resistance is significant.

People do not like what they are seeing.

Every single Trump voter is pissing and shitting on the graves of their Greatest Generation family members who they claim to revere.

Let’s be clear: anyone defending the Trump Administration after watching masked, anonymous agents assault a man, pepper spray him, then fire 5+ rounds into his back is irretrievably complicit in political terrorism.

"Better to stay the night.... than to be the night!"

Agreed on Skeleton being the better film of those two. Though, D&S is better the Lost Skeleton 2.

πŸ‘‡πŸŽ― Once again, the two parties are not remotely the same, & yet they are covered in our most prominent media outlets in exactly opposite proportions to the actual degree of scandal, lawbreaking, authoritarianism, etc. This has reached new levels of farce & obscenity since Trump.

The physical weight of Trumpism That heaviness you feel, that drag on your mental health, that drain on your emotional energy and lethargy in the face of world events, like yesterday, is real.

That heaviness you feel after events like yesterday is real. We've all accumulated a lot of mental and emotional weight in the first year of Trump's disastrous presidency. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-physic...

We don't want to wait years for lawsuits to work their way through the courts to reverse patently illegal, authoritarian behavior. We want our damn money back. Now. And we want the administration to follow the damn law. Now. Which requires a functional Congress caring about doing its damn job. Now.

NEW: A mass propaganda event is about to engulf the US news cycle and what, if anything, survives it will be a lesson for our times.

But it’s what the rest of the world does now that’s key. When someone tells you who they are, believe them.

100%! It may not be the same thing, but have you seen the Sony Vaio P from late 00s-10s? Beautiful, small, and came in some bright colors (albeit this example image is boring silver).

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier
