Itâs hard on the internet. Also I post on threads, and the critical thinking is way lower over there.
Oh okay. Sorry. I get a lot of real estate gurus accusing any type of criticism as NIMBY-ism
You can have apartments without selling tribal lands, without stripping safety regulations, without selling national parks, without stripping environmental regulations, without defunding affordable housing programs, and you can have apartments WHILE actually holding greedy corporations accountable.
NO ONEâS TALKING ABOUT THAT HERE.
Trump shouldnât sell our national parks and Tribal lands. Real Estate MAGA: âsO yOu wAnT pEoPle tO bE hOmElessâ
I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
Theyâre going to pretend heâs healthy while saying Biden wasnât competent to serve so they have to repeal his legislation. But Silver Lining â if it takes 5 days for Trump to make a small announcement, weâll hear a lot less from him.
Our current housing supply is way higher than it was a decade agoâ yet rents continue to rise. Because itâs not simply a âsupply and demandâ issue. Prices are being manipulated. Deregulation of housing and environmental laws will only help those increasing your rent.
The difference between the text of the post and the headline of the article below it is staggering

Doomerism is a part of fascism. They want you to think theyâre all powerful masterminds controlling everything. They want you to think nothing will change because then people will give up. Itâs the lazy personâs pre-compliance.
We got to have a 3-day weekend of Schrodingerâs Trump
Google taking over the the education market with chromebooks đ€ą has created so much ewaste...
Wow.
âFiller episodesâ really should have been rebranded as âcharacter development episodesâ
you misspelled "I will be holding public hearings immediately on RFK Jr.'s mismanagement of HHS, and even though we do not have the power of the majority, these hearings will be televised live and Republicans are welcome to join if they care about Americans' health even a tiny bit"
Doomers can be quiet today.
This is how writer levels worked out. This will be specific to the writer (and their *ahem* demographic) 1st: Staff writer repeated 3x, Story Editor, ESE 2nd: Staff repeat 3rd: Co-Producer 4th: Freelance Writer 5th: Producer 6th: Supervising Producer 7th: Supervising Prod repeated 8th: Co-EP
Breaking it down by genre: Comedy: 3 shows, 11 seasons, 186 episodes Drama: 3 shows, 3 seasons, 24 eps Animation: 2 shows, 4 seasons, 46 eps *I was on some shows its entire run, and some I was in one season or freelance.
This is how dramatically this Industry changed in the last decade -- here are shows I've written for (some I was there it's entire run, some not) 1st Show: 5 seasons 71 episodes 2nd: 3 sns 76 eps 3rd: 3 sns 39 eps 4th: 3 sns 39 eps 5th: 1 sns 8 eps 6th: 1 sns 8 eps 7th: 1 sns 8 eps 8th: 1 sns 7 eps
Wait â a pickle spear is only 5 calories AND it has the salt you need to keep you going?!
I mean, yeah, but his scheme is âwait for sick old man to get sickerâ
Oh, thereâs no way heâd be able to say this is Trump wasnât sick. This is the party that said Trump was 190 pounds with an 6 pack.

Writers, keep writing. Do not buy into the hype train telling you your job will be replaced in a few years. Those using AI are literally atrophying their brains ability to be creative. The future will need your words, your creativity, to function well. publichealthpolicyjournal.com/mit-study-fi...
So the thing about this is that the comic is promoting the "benefits" of Lois raising this adopted child during the time of the 60s Scoop, with the child's tribe being shown as unreasonably wanting to keep the child.
My fellow authors outside the US! My brethren! Behold and rejoice, for it seems we can *also* sue Anthropic.
Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!
According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago. 8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois. And yet Trump is sending troops here.
A Trillion Dollar lawsuit.
As much as Iâd love to believe META is that much of a shit show â theyâre all shit shows. I suspect that the answer is much more simple. The bubble is popping and META dramatically cutting back on AI probably meant they got screwed over so they left. The ship is sinking. The rats are scurrying.
American elites have conditioned themselves, over decades, to always extend Republicans the benefit of the doubt, lest they accused of being unfair to Republicans.
Oh do people love cartoons? You wouldn't know it by how cartoons are treated
In all seriousness. Preventing a weak candidate with obvious presidential aspirations from filling the entire political space is actually a good thing and strengthens the party. Californians, Vote Yes on November 4th. Dem Politicians, stand up & fight so itâs not just Pat Bateman doing anything.
Honestly, it could be either. Or both. One thing is certain. Zuckerberg is a đ€Ą
So⊠is METAâs AI push so bad that people are pushing away hundreds of millions? OR did Zuckerberg get tricked by AI con artists so bad that he spent millions to hire them only to realize that the promises were BS and AI was always fools gold.
Schumer, Pelosi, Jeffries⊠has any Dem leader taken time out of their busy angry letter writing to actually stand against this? Or idk, use it to motivate voters and opposition?
remember, this is what our "opposition" party can't figure out how to use to motivate voters
Damn. Heâs going to be in he nominee.
Wild how last month, at the height of Trumpâs Epstein scandal, the lawyer who secured Epsteinâs rosy plea deal â and presumably knows a lot about the case and which soggy orange diaper is involved in it â died. And everyone just moved right past it.
UNDERSTAND: Ghislaine Maxwell is in prison for sex trafficking children and she was found guilty of lying under oath. There is ZERO reason for any members of congress to interview this POS. Interview the damned victims. Itâs not that complicated!
Californians votes Yes on November 4th. If you think Newsom sucks â so do I. Vote Yes on November 4th.
At this point in the 2008 presidential election cycle, Obama was not on most folks' radar for president. He didn't lead the Democratic nomination polls until Super Tuesday. Yet, he got the nomination, and went on to two terms as president. No, we do not need to get behind a single candidate now.
âWe must stop themâ âtheyâre trying to undermine democracyâ âthey know they canât win so theyâre rigging the systemâ Literally what everyone else is saying. No clever wording needed. Thereâs only two things you shouldnât say â âI support itâ and âIâm not worried about itâ This is incompetence.
What a loser.
That is a beautiful timer.
Everyone should be worried. Unless theyâre complicit or foolish enough to not learn from the last 8 years.
The conceit of Lost in Translation makes no sense now becuase A Listers donât have to secretly do commercials across the world anymore.
Not to mention it's a false alternative. The muscles trained by deposing one fascist will be useful for constraining or deposing the next. There is no swap that doesn't impact the legitimacy of the regime and their supporters.
We saw Desantis crash and burn. Desantis was stronger than Vance. MAGA remembers Vance used to call Trump Hitler â they just donât go against their cult leader.
Thereâs a lot of ways I can explain how Trump has been uniquely effective at destroying this country, but I shouldnât have to. We know why Trump is worse.
âVance is worseâ yeah he sucks, but youâre effectively saying âTrump is betterâ Trump (of the Epstein files) is better? Heâs your choice of the two? Is that what you want to be saying? đ€ą
They know better though. They understand the criticism when people say âI like Bernie, but no more octogenarian candidatesâ they understand âI like that Alec Baldwin stands up to Trump, but no more celebritiesâ No, they only have the âsupport everyoneâ for centrist/right wing Democrats.
Stopping a fundamentally flawed politician from becoming the âfront runnerâ is a good thing & helps the Democrat party. Itâs wild how people get mad about that. Will be voting for his redistricting plan though! All while saying âNewsom still sucksâ because we donât have to fall for the propaganda
Itâs really telling when you say something like âI support the push to redistrict California and will vote for it but Gavin Newsom is a bad dudeâ and they get mad. Like â fundamentally youre agreeing with them about the need to fight Trump, why are they mad?
4. Technically, according to Maxwell, Trump and Epstein are the same level of guilty.
Ghislaine Maxwell didnât just say she didnât see Trump do anything predatory â she also said the same thing about Epstein. 1. She obviously canât be trusted. 2. Trump and Maxwell are clearly working together to perpetuate the idea that Epstein trafficking girls is a âhoaxâ 3. Trumpâs GUILTY GUILTY
Thereâs a weird trend in tech scammers faking everything now. Like AI people have to lie because theyâre grifters who donât understand the tech but want to still scam. But why do VFX channels need to do this?
We should take Maxwellâs quid pro quo statement for what it is. An admission of Trumpâs guilt. Release the Epstein files.
If there was a bank robbery and someone was a suspect and that person rolled up to the cops and said heâs innocent because the robbery was a hoax⊠THAT GUY IS THE MOST GUILTY.
Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.
Studios always learn the wrong lesson because otherwise theyâd have to put value in writers and creators instead of something they can control and own like IP.
Yeah, there are other ways to bond, but time in a finite resource.
Every Dem needs to hire a social media manager to mock Trump about the Epstein files. It's the only thing that works with his base. Every Dem also needs to do their job -- which isn't social media (that's for the manager you just hired to do). Dems need to be constantly jamming up this admin.
One way humans connect with their babies is through the act of feeding, washing, ect. Caring for a baby creates a bond. People can bond in other ways, this isn't some requirement. But it does provide some context for why the rich -- who tend to outsource that care, can have so much family issues.
Next year's WorldCon is in Los Angeles, and the theme appears to be Westward Expansion or possibly Manifest Destiny. The guests are referred to as Pioneers and the venue as The Frontier. This year the awards were swept by Indigenous writers. The choice is stunning in its ugliness.
A tail of two headlines and double standards.
come for the essay, stay for the chart
A bellwether of our times will be the failures of those who leaned into bigotry and the successes of those who embraced diversity.
Horror is perhaps one of the most expansive and diverse genres and thatâs why I love it.

Media outlets seem to have soured on the AI hype machine.
As a writer also in a field with a very high exec/top brass presence in the creative process, I can guarantee you that in 99% of cases, if the writing feels like you're repetitively being spoon fed plot and exposition, it's a directive from on high and not what the writer would do if left alone.
Apropos of *waves arm
Itâs always the person you most suspect.
Weird huh. It's almost as if Trump hates Texas, and looks down on them like some rich nepo baby elite from Manhattan.
Wait -- Donald Trump (of the Epstein Files) put a Registered Sex offender who raped a 16 year old girl on the President's Sports & Fitness Council... allowing him to consult on the fitness of young girls in school? That's like hiring a degree-less Epstein as a teacher -- which Bill Barr's dad did.
The Price of Beef is up 50.1% in Texas since Trump took office. Only 4.7% in California. Seems like Trump is bad for Texas.
Friends (esp if you live in CA) we REALLY need signatures on this petition supporting Bill AB412 - the AI Copyright Transparency Act. TLDR = this will require AI corps to be transparent about what is in their datasets! Signing takes 1 min. Once you sign, PLEASE SHARE!! tinyurl.com/4uxbp963
Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon wrote/drew this in the 90s. Trump supporters are still proving it true today.
Hello. I wrote a nice long essay about AI and this very strange moment where we're constantly told we're living in the dawn of a strange new future but the only thing that's actually clear is that everyone feels pretty unmoored and uncertain. I hope you'll read it
Part of fascism is pre-compliance. Part of fascism is negotiating with fascists.
The funny thing is⊠when a candidate pushes for free education or healthcare or abolishing the police they often get called too radical and unelectable â and despite clearly making those issues their line in the sand their detractors are never called purists.
NON-ELECTION YEAR: "Don't Criticize this candidate, at least they're doing something." NEXT YEAR: "They're not even running, why tear them down?" NEXT YEAR: "They have name recognition, why would you sabotage a frontrunner?" ELECTION YEAR: "You HAVE to vote for them or else fascism wins" *Loses*
I've seen folks saying we should avoid tearing down Newsom while he's doing good stuff to fight Trump. And I get that. But we've all seen how early & easily people's minds can cement on who's a frontrunner, based mostly on name recognition. So we need to make sure other, better choices are known.
So it looks like programming with AI slows you down, AI doesn't actually discover as much science as people have claimed, and also there are material risks to using AI to create assets for games and other media. Got it.
A Rambo prequel is fine, but we should remember that his mother is Navajo during casting discussions...
What happened to vote blue no matter who?
I think that what we call radical (left) is actually popular and it's only the radical right and media that portray something like feeding kids lunches at school as radical. But yes, compromise has helped fascism more & more. If only there was a historical lesson about appeasing dictators
Totally and Democrats shouldnât change their policies to be conservative.
This is 100% what it is.
No one is being fooled. But pointing out that sheâs being slightly more defiant of the right narrative highlights the weakness of the ideology among the public. One year ago she would have never fallen out of line of the emperor.
Ew. You like posting pictures of Trump on peopleâs threads. Thatâs sick.
Heâs been released again until his trial Sept 4. But if a judge thinks the charges are excessive, that doesnât bode well for the case.
A judge just called the felony excessive and released him.
Has anyone called this guy Reuben Hood yet?
Stop offloading cognitive tasks to "generative AI." Stop using systems w/ "AI" features either inextricably woven through them or prominently displayed at the top to nudge you into their use. Stop *Designing* "AI" tools & integrations that way. Stop building or using "AI" like this. Fucking Stop it.
