In his hearings they’ve been attacking RFKs hypocrisy for wanting to give Trump a Nobel Peace prize for Operation warp speed while also saying the vaccines are dangerous.

Always have figure out how to tie a policy position to something that hurts him personally. He doesn’t care about anyone else.

WTF weather app - why you gotta come at me like that?

My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

The main thing I realized I wanted to say but didn’t, is that while it can be frustrating being hit by bad news all the time, it’s also very reassuring to see people taking action and being vocal about it. So thank you for that.

I appreciate the posts. Understand it can be overwhelming for everyone at times, but it’s important.

SoundCloud knows artists don't want their music used in AI training, and this is in their Terms of Use! 😮 Yet another reason to not use SoundCloud for professional pitches. We will always have artists' backs!

Wouldn't it be great if giant corporations could exist without massive illegality? Some of my academic writing was vacuumed up into the LibGen database, and subsequently used by Meta (owners of Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and more) to train their LLM (AI) models.

^^ That’s it. I’m not a financial expert but it seems like he’s just looking for a way to increase tax revenue so he can justify income tax cuts for the wealthy.

Loved that whole experience - wish I could’ve just hung out at that bar for most of the event.

Was hoping for a bit more overt takedown of the system to go with the theme of the songs. I understand it was for the culture, but it’s a big stage and not sure the ppl that needed to get the message got it.

You knew they were going to complain no matter what so might as well go big.

Tuned in for Kendrick then turned the TV off.

it's so funny when you get notes from a sponsor that are like "we would like you to remove the unnecessary quirks of the segment and stick more to our script" like oh what you're saying is you want the ad to be more boring so people skip it. sounds great

To creators on BSKY: Recently, our team had the chance to sit down with dozens of you worldwide to get a reality check about what you need to help your channels. They even shared some personal stories, and I couldn’t be prouder of it. I’m so glad it came together. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGBM...

Yeah for sure, feels like the term still applies to those roles.

Publishing felt limited to those who work for game publishers. I like Games Industry as it covers anyone working for a studio or business that supports the broader gaming ecosystem and is inclusive of creative/non-business roles.

Games Industry? What I most commonly see for people who work in games biz dev or marketing (aka the people who would attend an E3 or Pax on behalf of their company).

We got a Frameo for my parents so we could send baby photos to it with the app. Been happy with it so far.

It’s scary because I always thought it was a fringe thing that was just getting more attention, but after the last election it seems like the majority of the country at this point? Terrifying

Beautiful family! Made me realize how weird it is that many of us spend so much time interacting with industry people, but don't get much deeper than work stuff.
