There’s always money in the

"Art isn't political now that i'm feeling backlash for opinions i made money expressing", say an increasing number of filmmakers and musicians.

I copy-edit books. Can LLMs do that now? Yes, but I'd still have to go over everything with a fine-tooth comb and make sure it didn't fuck everything up, so why not just… do that in the first place?

love the cameraman trying to do the wacky, normal monkees-show zoom in and out on the first chorus, before the absolute power of the song sorts his head out and he calms the fuck down a bit. .

It's morally reprehensible to rent out an entire home as a short term let in the current climate. Profiteering over public good while babies legs wither as they've no where to crawl in the hotel room they live in.
We need a culture shift of letting people with holiday homes know how grotesque it is.

Reader, I am that fool.

Exactly why my weeds rewatch has managed to hit s8

Just need it to be done now.

"waaaaait a minute, this is only TEN pieces of silver!"

Some important new government policy that Native Americans might be interested in:

Sorry, normal people and your kids, FG aren't interested unless someone's profiting off your safety.

But protection of people against sexual malfeasance doesn't come with a hefty lobby like the vintners that keep weed illegal, or the IMRO that keeps the pirate bay illegal, or the overseas funds that keep house prices high.

Even if O'Donovan was right about blocking access to the site, he could sure as shit deactivate his own account if he felt as strongly about not supporting sexually abusive AI tools as he does about not interfering with The Market Almighty.

Somewhere in the swirling whatsapp groups of conservative spin doctors, the decision has been taken to keep using twitter for their purposes rather than take the morally admirable stance of @garygannontd.bsky.social , which is to simply give up the reach to do what's right.

Various file sharing sites have been banned here, because they were used to break the law. As far as i'm aware, these bans also extend to some more sinister sites. The state is perfectly capable of banning a website if they want to, but FG don't want to.

Instead, they remain paying customers.

Every media figure and politician could do exactly this right now. @garygannon signs off from X, the deepfake child sexual abuse material generation app.

Your reminder that there's no such thing as consensual sexualised images of children, and the omission of men from the list of people that shouldn't have this done to them is absolutely fucking baffling.

My friend Francine said the funniest thing ever, which is that she thinks nick cave invented the genre of serious evil man music. If someone believed they were evil they'd make songs that sounded like they were from nick cave

Apparently the Dublin city centre chippers all close early now because of the hassle not being worth the trade.

Im sticking with droolers.

This idea needs to be annihilated by any means necessary.

This election is over, unless the indo can find more head-the-ball columnists and rte can maybe add a third FG moderator to a debate.

Aras25 is Irelands equivalent of america in 2016. The press bias will hand victory to the target of their amateur ire.

It's poor but there's honestly no contest in my mind here. This is 3 on 1 and connolly is still coming off as the grownup in the room.

She retired from politics a year ago citing exhaustion. It's pretty clear she was dragged in as the substitute for mairead mcguinness, presumably because someone up high in fg doesnt like sean kelly.

Thanks for reminding me those books exist. Lovely things altogether.

Anyway, fuck FG, vote connolly.

It's ok, it was a rural pursuit.

RTE follow up on humphrey's question

maybe if they put on a third presenter they can win some votes back for the blue

Whatever her party orders told her to do. Always.

Sure letting the Irish starve during the 1840s was grand, it was a rural pursuit #Aras25
