With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power. The power to throw workers under the bus. The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives. The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.

They warned us Mamdani would impose Sharia law. Instead, he unleashed the real threat: line dancing in Bryant Park.

If that cunt demolishes a JFK memorial, Americans’ first act when they’ve ridded themselves of him should be to turn his fucking arch to rubble.

Just finished House of the Dragon. What a ramshackle hunk of junk it is. Martin has whored out his legacy as a writer for anything that has a dollar sign on it. Tolkien he is not. Shame on HBO for pumping money into this monolith to greed. I feel for all the actors.

Remember: all royalties from my gay horror novellas (Virtuous, Drummer at the Hôtel du Passé), both the $1 digital version or the $10 paperback, goes to Rainbow Railroad which extracts LGBTQ folk from countries like Chechnya where Queer=Death. (See Welcome to Chechnya which talks about their work).

I dunno. If you’re using AI to make these anti-AI memes, maybe you’re part of the problem?
A screenshot of a text-only meme in a dark purple block. It reads:
It’s called a Data Center because “Mass surveillance infrastructure” sounds to dark.

Then below, in teeny text, which I’ve circled and drawn an arrow and two exclamation marks for emphasis, is text that reads: Meta AI. 

Okey dokey. 

And yeah, spelling mistakes and odd capitalisation simply adds to its charm lol.

I’m calling on @mark-carney.bsky.social - as we reevaluate our relationship to the US - we should be applying our content laws to #meta platforms or close down their activities in Canada. Facebook and Instagram should not be allowed to exploit Canadian markets while ignoring Canadian media rules.

In 2087, a message from deep space warns Earth a harbinger of doom is hurtling towards our planet. It also outlines a plan to save us, but at what cost? Is it a hoax, or a trap, or will we indeed soon face extinction—unless we agree to the ‘Alliance’s terms? #BookSky #SFF amazon.com/dp/B0F82Y9S7X

I so want to get excited by House of the Dragon but watching it feels like homework. I get more excited for another rewatch of Game of Thrones than a new episode of House of the Dragon. I am about to go into Knight of the Seven Kingdoms with greaaaaaaat trepidation. #gameofthrones #houseofthedragon
