Curmudgeonly shit-posting (but mostly just lurking) geriatric they/them millennial. Currently obsessed with DA, KCD2 and whatever shiny new thing catches my attention. I also like books.

So like itโ€™s insanely fucked up that payment processors wonโ€™t allow adult creators their livelihoods anymore, but suddenly chat GPT is about to profit from the same type of content, content it couldnโ€™t regurgitate without having scraped from those creators now being penalised for their work

let me make sure I understand these media standards...

so a 25 year old Black man is a man but a 25 year old white man is a kid?

is that how this works?

it doesn't seem like that's how anything should work.

Another thing about that group chat? The โ€˜boys will be boysโ€™ mentality also paved the way for that group chat. Particularly when you consider that only certain โ€˜boysโ€™ are given that grace.

White boys.

While Black boys are assigned manhood status as teenagers and predator status at all ages.

Today I learned that Neil Diamond originally tried to make it big under his real name of Neil Coal, but in the end had to change it due to immense pressure.

a tarot like illustration of Zevran Arainai from Dragon Age Origins surrounded by crows. he's doing the hush hush gesture and is probably headed for the window, because when was the last time he used door anyway

he has a golden halo and a golden dagger which has a golden halo of its own

A.I. generated videos are like dreams - you find your own fascinating and no one else gives a shit about them

why the fuck are magats/gop so obsessed with others' genitalia?

honestly, unless/until another person expresses amorous interest in myself, I spend 0 time thinking about what's between their legs. isn't that how life is supposed to work?

These freaks keep getting on TV talking about opposing antifa and how they believe antifa wants to destroy them, and not a single person in mainstream media has asked or commented on what is the opposite of antifascism and who is threatened by antifascists

โ€œThis new funding model benefits school divisions with declining enrolments, often found in rural areas. For school divisions with increasing enrolment, the WMA model creates a funding shortfall.โ€

Needing multiple streams of income to stay afloat is a societal failure not a personal one. You should be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle with one job. You are not lazy.

The fact that so many US citizens have no idea Bad Bunny is also a US citizen (and don't believe he can be a US citizen) tells you that when they say "citizen," they really just mean white.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

*whispers* Look, I just think that Rook deserves to hold a knife to the Dread Wolf's throat and threaten the Elven God of Lies and Sarcasm a little as they hate-bang in the Fade prison. As a little treat.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

๐Ÿน Before viral videos on TikTok or YouTube, there was Hampsterdance.

Full of dancing hamster GIFs & a sped-up tune, it became one of the internetโ€™s first viral hits.

You can still dance to it on the #WaybackMachine โžก๏ธ web.archive.org/web/19991222...

๐Ÿงต I think it would help if people stopped โ€˜feelingโ€™ whether or not a person or party is/was extreme or far right.

Thereโ€™s actually a fairly respected definition. Let me take you through it & then you can decide if someone meets the definition. This is aimed, in particular, at journos [1]
