"It’s 2026. Being apolitical during a genocide doesn’t work anymore. People are asking artists to show up, educate themselves and be in community. To use the stage for more than entertainment. To push back when the call for a Free Palestine is met with attempts to silence it." - Macklemore

Netflix's show plumbs new depths in generating revenue out of the regurgitated scraps of a bygone era and a distinct lack of original or inspiring ideas. Forget about the AI voice... The pure human slop on display here is staggering.

Three terms for the Ed Sheeran saga: moral outsourcing — the promoter owns the decision, he keeps the money. Complicity through passivity — neutrality that only bends toward power. Dirty hands by delegation — someone else does the cutting, his record stays clean.

Thursday Thought: The AI art backlash is everywhere—people claiming it rips off artists, is unethical, or is even dangerous. Yet these same critics don't blink before reposting memes made from TV frames, copyrighted comics, logos, and pop culture art. That's a wild double standard... 🧵

Why wait for algorithms—I've created software that connects bluesky to ollama for post analysis and even profile compatibility—incredibly powerful tool for cutting thru the noise. 👍

Here's a fascinating paradox: Research shows we resist AI most when accuracy matters most—even when algorithms outperform humans 70% vs 60%. Why do we self-sabotage precisely when precision could save lives, money, or freedom? 🧵 davidnowak.me/understandin...

Traditional thinking about group influence is binary—either a group is "good" or it's a "cult." But studying human systems revealed something more unsettling: influence operates on a spectrum, and most of us can't recognize where we actually stand... 🧵 davidnowak.me/navigating-g...
