So @kjcharleswriter.com says when you work in a googly eye factory, you become somewhat immune to thinking that sticking googly eyes on an object makes it alive. It applies to “can AI think?” but maybe also all us creative types who watched them loot our stuff by slapping their googly eyes on it.

Practical Magic 2 isn’t terrible, it’s a middle of the road paranormal family drama that would be right at home on any streaming service. However, as a sequel it is a failure. I know it pretty closely follows the plot points of the sequel book. Those plot point are part of the problem.

The amount of AI slop on the Romancelandia tag is enraging. I’m especially annoyed by white authors using GenAI images of women of color to market their books. Multilayered racism shit sandwich.

DuckDuckGo has added a feature to filter out AI images from search results.

Post from "The Rundown"

July 18 at 5:30 PM
·
DuckDuckGo has introduced a new feature allowing users to filter out AI-generated images from search results, addressing growing concerns over synthetic content overwhelming authentic visuals online.
The filter can be activated through a dropdown in the Images tab, search settings, or by using a dedicated AI-free domain: noai.duckduckgo.com. The system relies on curated blocklists, including uBlockOrigin’s Huge AI Blocklist, to detect and suppress AI-generated imagery.
While not perfect, it significantly reduces synthetic content visibility. This move sets DuckDuckGo apart from competitors like Google and Bing by giving users direct control over their exposure to AI-generated material.

‘You don’t know it’s gen AI!’ Yes, Sharon, I do. Because despite what your sycophantic chatbot tells you, humans do not have four extra bicep muscles, skin does not blend together like pudding, no one was born yassified, and the colour grading of all your images is piss-yellow.

Practical Magic rewatch complete. Of course it has my brain buzzing about all the ways sequel could have been changed to better fit the tone of the original and still hit the beats of the story. But honestly, I wanted to see Evan Rachel Wood back as Kylie. And see Sally as a grandmother.

One thing I’ve learned after 50 years of being autistic is that people will try to hold you responsibile for their feelings, usually caused by other people’s actions, simply because you happen to be around them while they’re emotionally disregulated.

I literally conceded in the thread you’re replying to. You don’t have to like what I do, but trying to prove me wrong with nothing but your opinions and personal attacks doesn’t fix the problem. It just makes you feel good to blame me for actions of other people on social media.

I think after I do some laundry, I’m going to reward myself with a rewatch of Practical Magic. I didn’t rewatch it before seeing PM2 to give the sequel a fair shot without nostalgia clouding my judgement. Now, I need to heal after sitting through that mess.

Creatives using AI in different fields is the most selfish thing. Using AI to make graphics while complaining about your work being stolen by AI is something. It’s like arts nonprofits with the AI flyers. Lack of awareness + laziness

Yes! When folks talk about Europe as some bastion of anti-racism, I’m reminded a popular drink in Belgium. The “Lumumba,” is hot chocolate with a shot in it. Patrice Lumumba was the first prime minister of what is now known as the Democratic Republic of Congo was assassinated by firing squad.
