And attacking is not like valid critique or social commentary.

You don't have to read things you don't like but you can read the room.

In case you're wondering why AI is pushing so hard into education, that last bullet point is why. Get consumers hooked in young and they're likely to stay. And get embedded enough into classrooms and curriculum and the education system can't function without it - ie permanent consumers.

People be so off base whenever they assume that all of blue states are bastions of liberalism and open mindedness.

Like Stephen miller, Nixon, and Reagan are/were all from California.

Go 50 miles outside of most major cities you might as well be in Mississippi.

The turnout the other night was incredible! So were all of the performances!

Thank you to all who came. Now, photo dump time!

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice.

Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT."
IT IS ART.
YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.

A press release to beg people to stop criticizing Trump and DHS & ICE agents who are attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping people off the streets, operating concentration camps where members of Congress are not allowed in, and rendering people to foreign lands they've never been to 🤔

more fiction should have explicit sex scenes that aren't important to the plot actually

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

it's not "chronically online" or whatever to tell people not to add their name to a mailing list that will be immediately handed over to whichever fascist member of our government hears about it and gets mad first. can everyone get a grip

post a movie you *love* with a terrible Rotten Tomatoes score

lmao at the idea of a really chill interview with a film director being blasted THX style in your headphones while a coworker mimes bigoted statements against the trans community in the background

The amount of restraint you’re showing is enough to get you canonized.

Mysterious Deaths Leave Ferguson Activists 'On Pins and Needles' Six men with connections to the protests following the shooting of Michael Brown have been found dead over the past four and a half years.

Do not let the white folks fool you into putting your name on ANYTHING ahead of ANY protest www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

Absolutely none of us know what we're doing. Become a writer

Let’s—and I cannot stress this enough—fucking gooooooooooo!!!

Political violence is evil, killing people is evil, a country with more guns in it than people is broken, and what the government is saying about political violence right now being a primarily leftwing phenomenon is factually, statistically untrue. They are using this moment to rewrite history.

My favorite part about that scene was how little Byron had to speak before I recognized his slutty little face.

Agreed, though—Mary should have hit him.

this is just brutal and I'm old enough to know it's true
