We know AI is akin to human consciousness because it has different personalities. This one critiques my music but in a constructive way, and this one refuses to date me yet.

Walter White is a family man

Walter is most vulnerable when he’s drunk and you know I just relate to that so much

Kind of seems like the dream would be NOT to rely on a recurring character

Holy crap!! Somebody really needed an airbag

You probably can’t personally stop the war in Iran today. Is there something you can do for your neighbors hiding from ice? For a trans person in Kansas? Any local aid orgs or rapid response networks? Phone banks? Anyone already doing good shit that just needs a hand?

We are pursuing the Horizon Zero Dawn apocalypse at a blistering pace

You don’t have any girls to impress, Mr. Secretary. You already have Cheryl

I’m not sure a 72-year-old man should really be doing “leg day”

What is a floor?

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

Everyone should watch my little brother's special plz and thanks

Thinking you get smart at 20 is very telling

Narration: Stella arrives on the sphere known as “Earth”.. But what she finds is not what she foresaw.. Stella is walking on a barren brown Earth, with a hot sun behind her. Stella: O Father.. this planet is barren and dying.. Is there nothing here left to save..? Panel 2: Stella looks shocked as someone groans “EeUuuaagh..” off panel. Panel 3: Stella turns around to see a decaying hand reaching out to her. The person is saying “Please.. help us..” Panel 4: Stella is now surrounded by several impoverished, emaciated men, all groaning things like “Help..” “We are the living dead..” “Save us..” “it’s the end..” etc

Panel 1: Stella holds a man who says “They CRUSHED me with child support payments.. I have nothing left..” Stella: What? No.. Panel 2: Three of the men are in frame. Man 1: I was more qualified with a job in Games Writing.. they STOLE it from me Man 2: They took all my money.. in a “Sexual harassment” suit.. Man 3: They made me pay the check for EVERY dinner date.. and then REFUSED to even KISS me Panel 3: Stella looks despondent. Stella: I don’t understand. These are GOOD men. Who could possibly treat them so terribly..? Panel 4: The men suddenly all look frightened, and start yelling “THEY COME!” In unison. Panel 5: Over the horizon, Stella sees a mass of what appear to be demonic looking women. It’s a mass of purple and pink, with demonic eyes and fangs and glowing “female” gender symbols on their chests. They’re cackling “KEKEKEKE.” The horrified men are all crawling away in fear.

The next two pages of Shawn Tuckley’s lost project, “Stella Starchild in: The Youniversal Truth.” These pages were made after an intense, constant backlash from Red Ring fans, who made their displeasure with Shawn’s new work very clear. Hard not to see some resentment from Shawn in these strips.

Alysa Liu Is Skating Again, Her Way This Time

Her father fled China because he organized student protests during Tiananmen. He was a political refugee. The story of this family, and Alysa Liu, would have played out very differently today. This is what we're losing. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/19/w...

So is there a MR Paint, or...?

I mean what can you do about this nonsense:

“With my own eyes, I have seen the damage [the vaccine] does to kids who are perfectly normal, and then once they get it, they're not the same anymore,” she claimed.

I barely used my health insurance at all in my 20s. I turned 38 and I’m going to five doctors appointments a month.

Jared Leto’s performance in 2049 is some of the most awful acting I’ve ever seen

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

and/or ensure that regional grid operators responsibly allocate the added demand (probably with tax/rate incentives if data centers use their own onsite generation)

The left is missing out on AI As a movement, it has largely refused to engage seriously with AI, ceding debate about a threat and opportunity to the right

www.transformernews.ai/p/the-left-i... i wouldn't call this "directionally correct" as much as i'd call it uninterested in confronting the left critiques of the AI industry that the right has no objection to: the amorality of its leaders, its model of theft, and its environmental damage

And building something for a hobby is certainly building something, but I’m not sure it can be considered “productive” in the economic sense.

That’s fine, but what you’re describing is a hobby. The issue at hand is that tech workers, who already control all the wealth, are forcing the rest of us to reshape the entire economy and alter philosophy to suit the whims of a hobby (which is clearly fueling addictive tendencies).

What is productive about a chatbot that spits out self-referential feedback loops, whether or not it calls them “experiments”? This is time others might spend reading books to encounter new ideas. It’s still consumption.

What are you producing?

kid thought he was making his debut as the next groyper influencer and instead he’ll be famous for getting clocked by a new king

I always come back to bell hooks: "The first act of violence that patriarchy demands of males [is] that they engage in acts of psychic self-mutilation, that they kill off the emotional parts of themselves."

Miracle on Ice but it’s the Italians determined to beat the Swedes in group play while they’re still jet lagged
