Stand up to him, get rewarded. Try to placate, he'll just demand more. The way is clear

it is very clear, which is how we know that when any entity doesn't resist, it's because they don't want to

Trump signs order to ax federal funding for NPR and PBS His order calls the 2 biggest U.S. public broadcasters that have decades enjoyed bipartisan congressional support "biased."

Another Project 2025 promise kept by Donald Trump.

Cutting funding for public broadcasting and children’s programming all so his administration can’t be held accountable without paywalls or subscriptions to hide behind.

RFK Jr. Encourages Americans To Do Their Own Research About Dragons WASHINGTON—Claiming the fantastical creatures were “way too cool” to leave their investigation to a handful of so-called experts, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. issued a statement Friday encouraging Americans to do their own research about dragons. “People, especially new parents looking for awesome bedtime stories, need to be reading everything they […]

“People, especially new parents looking for awesome bedtime stories, need to be reading everything they can possibly find about these ancient and powerful beings instead of blindly accepting the narrow range of depictions put forth by the mainstream media,” Kennedy wrote theonion.com/rfk-jr-...

Nice restaurants love to have a dessert called like “Milk and Cereal” or “Donuts and Coffee” and it’s their little take on what if those things cost nineteen dollars.

seems kind of weird that the vice president of the united states is openly supportive of german neo-nazis!

I've wanted to know for years now if it was intentional that drifter's clothing crosses right over left because that's how it was when he woke up from being dead

Exasperatingly frequently necessary reminder that the weaponization of ableism and fatphobia and homophobia and transphobia against your political enemies still works to NORMALIZE those things, thus SYSTEMICALLY HARMING your supposed allies.

okay

Sun City mom dies in home because A/C was shut off by APS during summer heat In May 2024, Jonathan Korman said his mom Kate Korman was found dead in her Sun City home, days after her electricity was shut off.

Never forget that Nancy Wake:
- Has whakapapa to Tainui.
- Killed an SS sentry with HER BARE HANDS.
- Cycled 500 kilometres in 72 hours through occupied France to deliver codes to the resistance.

Good on Greyhound for stepping up!

So just to recap, the Transportation Secretary is scared shitless of public transport. The Education Secretary is being sued for enabling child sex abuse. The Health Secretary is bringing back measles. And the Defense Secretary is texting classified war plans to the editor in chief of the Atlantic

That would be Secretary of Education Linda McMahon who's being sued for aiding and abetting systemic child molestation, just to be clear

Do your own research. fly your own airplane. Build your own submarine. Test your own food for salmonella.

Screenshot of quotes from Robert F. Kennedy that says: “I would say that we live in a democracy, and part of the responsibility of being a parent is to do your own research,” the health secretary said, in response to a question from a woman in the audience who asked how he would advise a new parent about vaccine safety. “You research the baby stroller, you research the foods that they’re getting, and you need to research the medicines that they’re taking as well.”

This is vaccine denialism, but it's also shifting risk and responsibility from the government to parents. The CPSC determines whether strollers are safe. The USDA determines if food is safe. The FDA determines if drugs are safe. Yet Trump is gutting all of them. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/29/u...

I think people that claim LLMs are "definitely useful" are just suffering a less acute version of this delusion. It is a machine that sets the "seeing a human face in random pattern" instinct into turbo drive. But it's all you projecting onto it

I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”

so about the “ethical” part

the studio is financed primarily by Asteria, an AI firm that partnered with Moonvalley to build a generative video model that was supposedly “only trained by owned and licensed content”

they have yet to announce any of their those licensing deals, nor has any studio
