when ai leaves u behind
7 panel comic.

Panel 1:
A Red Guy with AI across his chest looks like he’s about to run away. A Yellow Guy stands next to him. Red Guy says “I’m the future, buddy. You comin’?”
Yellow Guy replies “Nah”

Panel 2: 
Red Guy is almost out of the panel. He leans in and says “Enjoy getting left behind, pal”
Yellow Guy replies “ok”

Panel 3:
Yellow Guy stands alone.

Panel 4: 
Close up on Yellow Guy, there is a quiet “huff-huff-huff” noise coming from behind him

Panel 5:
Yellow Guy turns to look behind him

Panel 6: 
Close up on Yellow Guy’s face as if from the point of view of an attacker.
Yellow Guy yells “Jesus Christ”

Panel 7:
AI Red Guy is now chasing the Yellow Guy. 
Red Guy: “Use me”
Yellow Guy “No”
Red Guy “USE ME”

On July 8th, we published a piece on AI in Heated Rivalry fic fandom. On July 30th, the New York Times ran a piece on the same subject. We weren't surprised—because we knew a Times reporter had read our coverage. A tale of two fandom articles, part of a longstanding dynamic in the media industry:

"The site was being hammered by AI crawlers at industrial scale (by early this year only about 10% of its traffic was human) and buried in that flood, someone was probing a thirty-year-old codebase for back doors." the extraction machines continue to destroy the world they depend on.

Re: “Dead Dove: Do Not Eat” I always just use the original definition as coined by the creator, mostlyvalid on Tumblr, as the all fandom alternative to “HYDRA Trash Party”. ie. There will be no subversion or condemnation of the things tagged, proceed with caution
The "Dead Dove: Do Not Eat" tag would essentially be a "what it says on the tin" metatag, indicating "you see the tropes and concepts tagged here? they are going to appear in this fic. exactly as said. there will not necessarily be any subversion, authorial commentary condemning problematic aspects, or meditation on potential harm. this fic contains dead dove. if you proceed, you should expect to encounter it."

“Why is the proletariat not cheering for the bourgeoisie?” Look, if you believe AI is the “next Industrial Revolution,” ask yourself if weavers & the working class were super excited about factories. Then you’ll know what to say about AI at a commencement speech!

NASA's photo galley from yesterday's lunar fly-by are bonkers gorgeous full gallery here: www.nasa.gov/gallery/luna...
 The Artemis II crew captures a portion of the Moon coming into view along the terminator – the boundary between lunar day and night – where low-angle sunlight casts long, dramatic shadows across the surface. This grazing light accentuates the Moon’s rugged topography, revealing craters, ridges, and basin structures in striking detail.A closeup of the moon fills the bottom diagonal 2/3rds of the photo, and it shows hundreds of large and tiny craters, lit brightly by sun. The distance a small blue planet earth, dusted with white clouds, is rising over the moon's horizon. The rest of the sky is pitch blackOn the left, poking into the frame, is the round edge of the Artemis 2 capsule, with a solar panel jutting off diagonally at 2 o'clock. In the middle left of the screen is the moon eclipsing the sun - so the moon is mostly dark and ringed by a bright grey-white corona

Visitors are coming, so you clean your messy house because your standard of cleanliness is based on the houses you visit, houses that look spotless since they cleaned up before you arrived after seeing your house was clean when they visited. Together, we can stop this. Don’t clean up.

the thing about skysports halo is that it's likely a result of higher-ups seeing their social media demographics skew increasingly female saying "this is a problem that needs to be fixed" but unlike boys' tv that gets too popular with girls, they can't just cancel the show because the show is sports

Frustrating though entirely unsurprising that a young femme-focused magazine that has been doing banger work in reporting on crucial issues is being gutted by the politically grey Vogue. We need this reporting now more than ever, and I've said this far too many times in the last two years.

Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason | Daiz.moe
With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.

one more: i think people should be able to navigate a website like ao3 instead of demanding an app. it's digital literacy. it's important. it's a learnable skill. and perhaps most glaringly, it's divorced from the algorithm. that's important, too.
