I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

the thing about Ensign Kellogg on TNG being played by a stealth trans woman really is like we as a community always say…we've ALWAYS BEEN HERE. Just because people didn't realize it doesn't mean we weren't here.

she had to hide and be stealth, it’s never mentioned the character is trans but there’s something truly magic in knowing that the next time i rewatch TNG, i will see her there and i will know that someone like me helped make the show that ignited my lifelong love of Star Trek 😭

Fox News talks a lot about the WNBA, but it’s not because it likes to see talented female athletes putting the ball in the hoop. To Fox, women’s sports is good for 2 things: 1. To agitate for white grievance. 2. To foment anti-trans hate. (This is No. 1, but there’s a lot of No. 2 on Fox as well.)
Fox headline: Sports media celebrates Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham losing in the playoffs.

Wir, die Berliner, haben die "große Koalition" abgewählt. Weil ihre Politik scheiße ist. Wir haben R2G gewählt, weil wir eine andere Politik wollen. Man kann das blöd finden, aber was hier gerade an Kampagnen abläuft ist nicht weniger als ein nachgelagerter Wahlbetrug und Sabotage der Demokratie.

But it’s also true that these systems are just misogynistic. And we’re so busy holding victims to an impossibly high standard that we forget to ask the most basic questions about whether people like police did their jobs effectively.

All of this. I also want to add that, in my research, I found that a lot of “inconsistencies” in a victim’s story actually came from gender bias affecting investigators’ record keeping and interview methods.

Der Tankrabatt wirkt pro Liter. Wer einen sparsamen Kleinwagen fährt, bekommt knapp 7 Euro pro Füllung. Wer eine fette Karre fährt und am meisten Sprit verbrennt, bekommt am meisten Geld. Der Staat belohnt genau das Verhalten, das uns in diese Lage gebracht hat. Das muss man sich erst mal ausdenken.
