If The Acadamy doesn’t explicitly ban generative AI in any form from award consideration, the slippery slope will start here. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/the-brutalist-ai-backlash-adrien-brody-1236113015/

I say again, the power of the U.S. President to pardon and commute is an abomination.

Guess the markets think being run by a Nazi is bad for business.

I’m so old I can remember when Republicans were thought to be the rule of law party. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jan/21/ross-ulbricht-silk-road-trump-pardon

I simply have no energy or interest in relitigating 2016 or even 2024. The American people had a moral choice in front of them. A simple black/white, good/evil choice. Like from a fairy tale. And they failed. Spectacularly. It’s on them. No one else.

Explain it to me like I’m five. Make it make sense.

Hard to describe how badly Apple* has fucked this AI thing up. * Nearly all tech companies. https://daringfireball.net/2025/01/siri_is_super_dumb_and_getting_dumber

When I pointed out that the discussion of sexism and misogyny on a forum had hit all the standard sexist tropes (denial, notMe, sexual objectification, victim blaming, "men are the real victims", etc) I got accused to trying to muzzle my fellow males and prevent them from discussing the topic, and told that if men aren't allowed talk about sexism, nothing will change. Add that one to your bingo card. 🙂 #sexism

According to a CBC news story, people in BC are starting to realise what a bad idea it is switching to permanent daylight savings time: among other things, it means children will be walking to school and crossing major streets in the dark during the winter (sunrise will be as late as 9:08). Yes, get rid of time changes. No, don't standardise on #DST. Local apparent noon shouldn't happen at 13:30.

Rumour has it that when the U.S. created its temporary 5-star ranks near the end of WW2, George Marshall vetoed the British term "Field Marshal" for the U.S. army because he didn't want to be called "Field Marshal Marshall." I don't care if it's true. That's a story I'll keep on telling. #history #WW2

When I'm in public, I hope nobody hears me moan "oh god, YES!" when the first sip of tea hits my tongue. #tea

@7sleepersmusic @cohentheblue @fortyseven Why do you say this? Socialism makes sense to me?

@DoughPayMe@mstdn.social ##5465179

@7sleepersmusic @cohentheblue @fortyseven Be nice to see people in politics here on the Fediverse. Suspect they have a lot on their agenda keeping them super busy, especially now.
