This is a start in framing the issue. Its tragic because its almost an insurmountable task to defeat the tech oligarchs of the world at this point. What it doesn't address is the ethical issues w/ AI in the Arts which will always be a foundational loser for AI advocates. aial.ie/pages/aiparis/

Different creative fields responses to the AI push / takeover: Authors: We'll see you in court! Actors/Writers: We're striking until our demands are met! Architects: Oooh, shiny new toy! Just happily driving the car right off the cliff. #AI

“The United States has threatened to cut off Ukraine's access to Starlink satellite internet terminals if Kyiv does not reach a deal with the U.S. regarding critical mineral resources, Reuters reported on Feb. 21, citing three sources familiar with the negotiations.”

Spoiler: The glue is failing in freezing weather. Because they used glue on the Cybertruck.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

I tried to pet every breed of dog at the Westminster Dog Show. The resulting video: 12 minutes of extremely good dogs 132 dogs pet 5 face licks 2 belly rubs Me saying “BEAUTIFUL dog” at least 59 times youtu.be/nOzLZH29wFc?...

Feels timely to reshare this from from the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz’s liberation. World leaders lay candles, in silence until spontaneous applause greeted Zelenskyy. Those there knew he is fighting the 21st century’s Nazis. 20 days on, a US regime has sided with them. What utter darkness.

President Macron: "Russia is already aggressive towards the whole of Europe.It's started.It's got a strong army,it's attacking us on information,cyber,migration.I can mention other things.It's destabilizing us,it's attacking our interests in Africa,it's provoking us,testing us at sea,in the air"

If I had a band or a label, I would do a punk cover of "No More Kings" from Schoolhouse Rock. And then I would gather a bunch of people to write a whole album of next-generation Schoolhouse Rock songs, with songs about Social Security and Medicaid and NOAA. I am not kidding in the least.

Canada, "Keep your Nazis, we'll take our Hockey!"

There's nothing better than the golden goal format in sports. I hope all the maga's in attendance had their heads literally explode. #Canada

SUCK IT, AMERICA!! #Canada

If Canada wins this game on a golden goal, I want the cameras to immediately snap to the flag draped, maga hat wearing douchebag right behind the USA bench. #4Nations

Go tell it to the Ukrainian soldiers faces, Elon. #Ukraine

This is exactly how Hitler talked. It's not even a comparison or analogy, as people claim. It's a direct connection in ideology as well as a similar approach to governance and relationship to democracy. This needs to be how we talk about it. They are the ideological descendants of Hitler.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

This severance edit is why they wanted to ban tiktok 🤣🤣🤣

There was a better than average chance Elon cut his head off with the chainsaw on stage while hopped up on super drugs but alas we live in the worst timeline. #CPAC

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Goddamnit, on top of everything else we have to suffer through baseball again?! #Baseball

State governments should cut off all state and local cooperation with the FBI, and they should do it immediately. No law requires it, the Constitution fully empowers you to not even return their calls. But there is no legitimate purpose now in treating them as an acceptable partner for anything.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Holy shit we must protect this man at all costs

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Pretty exciting to ever see the transition from loved book to screen. Goal is to never be angry at someone's attempt at producing entertainment for a wide audience. Disappointed possibly but why would you ever be angry? www.polygon.com/tv/526411/mu...

Gotta love the British press! 🇬🇧

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

"Now we have a clear decision, and it is favorable for rightsholders." Very useful fr Roy Kaufman of the Copyright Clearance Center this am on @scholarlykitchen.bsky.social --on fair use in the impt recent case of scraping for AI training. scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2025/02/20/c...

The good news is i saved you 60 billion dollars. The bad news is that is a typo i saved you 600 dollars and also your plane is falling out of the sky

The waste is coming from the White House. 👇

Duckworth: "He essentially just surrendered to Putin."

I was electrocuted, beaten, stabbed in the leg and starved after being captured while defending my home and family in Mariupol. We held back Putin’s invasion for several weeks while Russia slaughtered over 25,000 predominantly Russian speaking Ukrainians including women and children.
