Notice how those “apolitical” people ALWAYS end up siding with the oppressors

My dad walked in on me playing kingdom hearts as a kid and I told him I was killing a boss and he said "I wish I could kill my boss" and left

I worked in a bookstore in college, and one of my favorite interactions was the following: a little old lady came in, shopping for her teenage grandchild, and asked me if we had the book "CLIFFS NOTES, by Silas Mariner[sic]".

#portfolioday, unless it was yesterday. I'm an artist and designer, currently specializing in #patterndesign. I work in a mix of traditional and digital techniques, with absolutely NO AI. I can make it look like crap on my own, thanks.

Alas! It is 31 years since the world was deprived of one of its more colourful culinary characters: Phyllis Nan Sortain Pechey – better known as double bigamist, child abandoner, amphetamine user, dangerous driver, and celebrity cook Fanny Cradock
Fanny Cradock in a red dress in a TV studio with a spherical Christmas pudding in front of her and two ovens behind. She has a manic look on her face, which I believe is intended to convey triumph at her creation, but makes her look unhinged

CAREFUL: this whole thread (which consists of the repetition of facts) probably constitutes treason, or something.

And please also, AGAIN, never forget that they are inherently unethical to use because no one gave permission for their research or writing to be used in it. It is all stolen, and if you're using the plagiarism machine, please keep that in mind.

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

He's a pisscloth. A toilet brush, or as Alfred Jarry so memorably called it, an "unmentionable brush". An understain. A sticky, shitty motel mattress. There aren't words for the vileness he embodies.

I’ve heard more than one retelling of a C level suite who’s wanted to fire a guy for not using AI enough only to be told that they can’t fire him because he’s the one who’s fixing all the AI’s mistakes, much to the bewilderment of the C level exec who didn’t think AI was making those mistakes

This was deliberate: Oscar Isaac and del Toro based their Victor Frankenstein on "Bowie, and Prince".

When I worked at Chuck's Liquors as a wine manager back in the first Obama term, there was this one general manager who ONLY listened to pop country. Even then, everything was so formulaic that I could identify individual session players because they'd just recycle the same licks. So this tracks.

I guarantee you that nearly everyone who kept angrily declaring that "Old Town Road" and "Cowboy Carter" couldn't be considered real country music have no problem at all with this.
