Counselor: These feelings of "everything sucks," how long have you had them?

Butt-head: Uhh, since everything started to suck, I guess.

We’ve known what will fix climate for decades, and the dipshits with the power to make it happen have been wasting time pretending we need a different answer because they can’t stand the idea of not making money off it. Fuck AI

Scientists no Longer Find Twitter Professionally Useful, and have Switched to Bluesky Synopsis. Social media has become widely used by the scientific community for a variety of professional uses, including networking and public outreach. For

Bluesky is the new science Twitter, new study by @whysharksmatter.bsky.social and Julia Wester concludes!

"Results show that for every reported professional benefit that scientists once gained from Twitter, scientists can now gain that benefit more effectively on Bluesky than on Twitter."

Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
Watched by Branson Reese 28 Apr 2022

Abrams isn't a man so much as he's an avatar of cultural entropy. If you make something popular enough eventually you will die or sell it off and and a person in thick rimmed glasses whose main artistic vision is that he loves to have meetings will take it and sandblast it until it's nothing. I hate to see this happen here but maybe it's good that this happened. Maybe every franchise should collapse into a version of itself that makes shareholders nod and shake each others' hands. We should learn to speak in a language that rich people who don't dream can't comprehend.

Every time someone describes a somewhat useful feature of these text and image generators, they should have to follow it with "...and that's why I don't mind if people post fake nudes of your children on the internet."

So much of what you’ve said in this thread is painfully familiar, I wish I had recognized the possibilities before I was 20 years into an unsatisfying (but comfortable) office career.

As a kid I always wanted a STEM career, but when I couldn’t pass the calculus pre-reqs in undergrad I floundered in the humanities and squeaked out a degree after 5 years. Some blame falls on me for not seeking help or alternatives but it was never clear to my awkward young self that was an option.

Trump's Vile Obama Video Follows the White House's Official White Nationalist Line DHS and other agencies have been spewing racist goals as government policy

Trump's racist video depicting the Obamas as apes wasn't a mistakeβ€”it's part of a pattern. From DHS posting neo-Nazi recruitment material to erasing slavery exhibits, white nationalism has become official government policy.

hatred of unhoused people is genuinely a pipeline to fascism. if the wealthy can get you to dehumanize your own neighbors, then they can get you to do it to anyone.

I retired with $4.5million after taxes. I am currently living the American dream (1600sq. foot 4bed 2bath house a mile and a half away from the beach in SoCal, kids can go to the colleges they want, we take occasional vacations).

At a certain point, you have enough, and it’s well before $50million.

Twin Cities tow truck driver returns abandoned vehicles to families after ICE arrests Juan Leon sends a "chase" car to check out where abandoned vehicles are located and arranges discreet drop-offs. Since late December, he estimated they have dropped off 250 cars.

ICE has grabbed so many people from their vehicles that there are abandoned cars across Minnesota.

This tow truck driver returns the cars for free as a public service, and he’s been getting death threats.

They hate the helpers.

Which is why must keep helping.
