the pope is not “based” or “woke” unless and until he abolishes the catholic church and distributes its wealth among all those it harmed

Hey remember how one of the themes of Dawntrail was unhealthily holding onto an imitation of life and the damage it can do by not giving people the ability to move on

not loving the current trend of "indie devs can use the mechanics of addiction a little, as a treat"

I'll be the first to admit knowing very little about medical sciences, but god damn from the outside looking in, mRNA tech seems like actual magic

I probably sound like a broken record, but I cannot wait for this AI bubble to burst, I want to see the architects of this tech to be taken for every penny by those whose artwork they stole for training data, and I want those tools to cease function and be confined to the same memory hole as NFTs.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

The thing that unites conservatives, liberals, fascists, and leftists around Epstein's violence is that the vast majority never cared about the girls.

It has only ever been about whose reputation can be damaged.

i dont want to be in a fandom that critisizes the choices of fictional characters like they are human beings. i want to see THEORY and ANALYSIS and STORY STRUCTURE and CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!! I WANT PARALLELS AND MOTIFS AND VISUAL CUES!!! They're not REAL they are TOOLS so stop acting like they are people who made bad choices and should be punished. of course they made bad choices!!! that shit is funny and cool to watch!!

A screenshot of a food ordering app screen that asks, "Would you like to add two bones to your order?" This is labeled "Optional". "Add 2 Bones" costs $9.95.

The people who cling to the Woody Allens of this world will never understand the people who drop the Neil Gaimans like they’re on fire.

Some of us are allergic to joining cults.

an image of bill clinton with the text "donald trump sucked me off??"

Anyways I spend my time slowly replaying videos of ICE shootings so I can figure out what's going on and report on it and also the government is trying to make it illegal for me to have healthcare and my apartment's toilet breaks about once a week so.................

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Well well well if it isn't the blowjob brothers

This *shit* is exactly what I am referring to.

Incredibly disrespectful to the intelligent and proud SEX workers who made her platform successful.

We don't need saving, Bella.

We need platforms who fucking support us.

Epstein appeared to text with House member during Cohen hearing, documents show Newly released documents from the convicted sex offender’s estate include text messages from him that appear to influence the lawmaker’s questions to President Donald Trump’s personal attorney at a 20...

Breaking news: Newly released documents from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate show that he appeared to be texting a member of Congress during a congressional hearing investigating Donald Trump, and that those texts may have influenced the lawmaker’s questions.

I am begging America to not be stupid enough to embrace a racist and an antisemite because Donald Trump thinks she's a meanie. Just grab some popcorn and watch the Nazis fight.

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

Eurgh. It's not even cutting corners. They just decided to not have artists involved at all and just used whatever they could squeeze out of an image generator.

There's a whole set of Generic Ghibli Style ones in there too.

This is Call Of Duty, the poster child for budget excess in AAA. So tacky.

Oh thank GOD

Some Internet pirate ripped @mattczap.bsky.social's AMAZING animated version of Badger's "Star Trek" spec script from "Breaking Bad"

We commissioned this at Vulture in 2013, right when I started there as the video chief, but the original was lost in a server migration

LLAP, folks 🖖:

libshits and even his own base are gonna care far more about this than all the CSA, too.

i fucking hate it here

new york magazine calling the first epstein victim to come forward a "tranny" and dismissing the complaint completely

A screenshot of a tweet from Ludwig saying: a couple weeks ago I found out one of my oldest viewers passed away she started following when i had 100 viewers she was super active in chat, funny, and helped turn my goofy dream of being a streamer into a full fledged career she was also trans, and my community was one of the few places she felt comfortable expressing that in so today in her memory im doing a charity stream for the Trevor project ty to anyone who tunes in or donates rip kanabana

So the streamer Ludwig recently found out that one of his earliest regular viewers, who was trans, passed away and tonight he's doing a charity stream for the Trevor Project. So far he's raised over $46,000 in about 5 hours. www.twitch.tv/ludwig

one function of capitalism is to funnel these types into positions of power, because if competent & kind people get into power they start taking from the rich and giving to the poor. capitalist leaders must be either evil or ignorant or both, only by mistake does anyone else get near power

Bluesky adopting a "we will ban anyone who is mean to pedophiles" moderation posture is confusing until you remember it was started by a bunch of tech libertarians as a haven for Ai cultists and crypto guys.
