I'm pretty sure I know. They aren't. We're not going to really be able to make a lot of progress in dealing with the implications of this tech unless and until we get rid of all this "woo-woo" talk about LLMs. Anthropic pushing this line is PR, unserious.

time to be loud about this terrible decision.

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes."

After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

An excerpt from Sophie Gilbert’s review of the new Melania movie:

"Melania shows off her custom-made inauguration gown, stark white with black ribbons overlaying it, a dress that now looks unavoidably like the redacted Epstein files."

it's a common mistake to think that when people say "he's the goat" or "my goat" or something that they're referring to the acronym "greatest of all time". in reality, they're using a metaphor to compare the subject of their praise to "goat", the developer of the titular XIVLauncher and Dalamud fram

Good time to share this I guess

Alt text: Screenshot of a long social media post by Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump). The post claims the United States has subsidized Denmark and European countries for decades and argues that Greenland is critical to U.S. and global security. It states that China and Russia want Greenland, criticizes Denmark’s ability to defend it, and asserts that only the U.S. can protect the territory. The post announces planned tariffs starting February 1, 2026—10% on goods from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland, rising to 25% on June 1, 2026—until a deal is reached for the complete purchase of Greenland. It ends with Trump signing as “President of the United States of America,” with engagement metrics and a timestamp of January 17, 2026.

Trump just placed a tariff on most of the EU of 10% that will increase to 25% in June unless they agree to sell him Greenland.

This is mad king shit.

it's only been a week into 2026 and i'm already feeling like

I missed actually trying to hear how bad the non-con Prime Video AI Dubs were, and they're...even worse than I thought they'd be? How anyone signed off on them is amazing. Even the dumbest brick of a media company CEO would have to agree that they were terrible and make the platform look bad.

YouTube video by Sarah Moon thanks, AI hate it

The new video by @\prettytranslator.bsky.social is a pretty good watch if you rely on @crunchyroll.com and other streaming sites for anime. I saw the crappy typesetting and translation fails back when they happened, and didn't think it could get worse.

"Whoever creates this stuff has no idea what pain is. [...] I never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself. - Hayao Miyazaki, co-founder of Studio Ghibli was "utterly disgusted" when he was shown an A/I demo in 2016

Yeah, f*** A/I. It's something that's making everything worse in every single way - I don't get it. I mean, I get it in a 'This makes sense to save money by not paying artists' way? But then, what the f*** are we doing? Is this where we want to be?" RIAN JOHNSON ON THE USE OF A/I Hollywood

I know I'd definitely try for one, but with a full time job and patreon already, I wouldn't want you to get overworked or overloaded trying to meet even more deadlines or to deal with impatient commissioners.

I think vgen might have some similar policies for a TOS and time expectations too.

2 a week would be a pretty fast output. Most artists I commission tend to say they'll deliver start -> finish anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months, for active / top of queue.

If you want to dabble with comms, maybe a YCH might work best, so you have some control and expectations? Or claim SKEB style.

went through to verify the accounts on this list and yeah this is pretty legit and helpful.

I hate doing this again. I don't like piling up work when I have commissions to finish, but I'm going to be opening up some emergency slots for commissions to make sure I hit my bills before the end of the month. If y'all would like one I would appreciate the support. Details below.

Who were the ones who suggested a bluesky blackout??

When I was placed on the Professor Watchlist in 2021, people sent death threats about my children. I had security officers monitor my 8yo at school.

Where is all the outrage for those of us who have been targeted for years? Where is the outrage for our families?

My own colleagues are silent.
