I know this is extremely vulgar idealism, but I do think we should try to aggressively reassert the norm that lying is bad. Not in a "Four Pinnochios" fact-checking kind of way, but in a way that frames this kind of lying as moral degeneracy that is fundamentally corrosive to the human spirit.

Happy Black History Month

I'm devastated to report that Sandra Powers, 'Mania' to most Petopians, passed away from cancer on 25 January. Sandra was the power behind Petopia and creator of Warcraft Mounts. She's responsible for making Petopia what it has become. There's too much to say, so please see the image/alt text 🤍

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

It might hurt my bottom line, but I’m probably going to stop posting art to Twitter entirely and I suggest you do too. Not only is the site actively putting a “Okay, now remix this” button below art (and elevating them above the OP with a QRT) and it’s false flagging original art as made by AI.

They’re doing the meme

Silicon Valley be all like "You didn't want to buy our monkey jpgs and conduct meetings with VR headsets, I guess we have no choice but to start WW3"

I think my favorite thing about Bluesky so far has been that every post that's even mildly funny doesn't have a dozen "GET THE TSHIRT HERE ⬇⬇⬇" posts at the top of every comment section

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

it's a mood

Cancelling stuff I haven't used in a while and it's SO SCUMMY of Disney+ to bring up a whole ass "Pause Subscription" menu/interface when you click Cancel Subscription. Makes me want to never resub tbh

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

I'm not currently on an RP server, but you just KNOW that RP servers are gonna have the coolest fucking neighborhoods. I might have to swap servers now that guilds are cross realm 🤔

Well I got one of the mounts, if only I could get the other...

How it feels to live in America

The Internet Archive has to date downloaded 500 terabytes of US government websites, which it crawls at the end of every presidential term. The whole archive is fully searchable. This effort's housed by a donation-funded nonprofit, not a branch of the US government. blog.archive.org/2024/05/08/e...

Might I suggest now being a good time to rethink your LA Times subscription.

Almost every journalist I knew who properly covered extremism has been fired or laid off over the last few years.

FYI google have now stopped "-ai" working at the end of your search string. So put this at the end (after a space) instead: &udm=14 Fuck you #google. #AI

Whys it look like a fucking xenomorph?

Speaking of tiny vertebrates, say hello to the smallest vertebrate in North America: Least Livebearer (Heterandria formosa) *fish released after class observation

Oh wow, OpenAI actually made the accusation, they're cooked. You can't steal everyone else's IP to train, then turn around and claim someone took it from you. In what world is laundered IP more protected than the original work? This is absolutely going to hurt them in court. 80.lv/articles/ope...
