RT score currently at 90% with 30 reviews btw, so this guy is in the minority thinking it's a bad film, and really going for special boy status giving it one star.

I loved the movie of Crazy Rich Asians, but after reading the book series, I'm not sure where this new HBO series will go. The longer arc of the books is Astrid's marriage—something they blew through in the movie because they couldn't rely on there being more.

I'd say people who are insistent on getting folks on Bluesky to put violent resistance plans in writing but we know that's probably what Kash Patel has his agents doing instead of all the actual criminal work they canceled in January of 2025.

What do you think all of this is for if it’s not at least partially working to keep people secure in the knowledge of their safety? What does it say when even the most high profile people with social power don’t feel like the police keep them safe?

This by Courtney Maum is where I am too. I am grateful to her for the words...

For me, the subject of AI detection is an ouroboros. I’ll speak only for myself, here is my opinion. I didn’t ask for artificial intelligence. It’s not something I need, it is not something I desire. And yet, it barged its way into my life and stole all of my books. All of them. Stole them. Trained off of them. Did not compensate me for this theft. So now, AI can write a book like me, because it stole my own work and learned my breed of humor and satire. So if someone runs an AI text detector on my creative output, it will probably “test positive” why? Because AI is a contaminant that has embedded itself into my work by stealing it and using my own work to perpetuate itself. It will test for itself and find AI there because it AI is a virus that has contaminated the DNA of my current and future writing—a form of intellectual rape. A kind of colonization. A raging plague that some gatekeepers are opening the door for.

If you ask me what I’m currently working on, the answer is nothing book-length. I’m not going to publish a new book in this current landscape. That’s a stance of privilege, I recognize that. And I can’t hold this stance forever, I can hold it as long as I have savings from my last book.

This current literary climate isn’t acceptable. It is not acceptable to have a thing thrust upon us that takes absolutely everything, and then be forced to prove that we are not the thieves.

i'm kind of tired of people saying "AI has legitimate use cases". fuck that. AI is an illegitimate product based on the stolen work of others that seeks to increase wealth for like 6 people at the expense of all of us, and that IN AND OF ITSELF means it has no legitimate use case, period.

Yeah when I see them on the side of the highway I wonder who they are supposed to be convincing. When they're on your lawn you are sticking your reputation to your endorsement of the candidate. When it's on the side of i-65 it's just trash.

“oh well, nothing we can do here” is not a legal approach we take to any other tools that are used to commit crimes and I don’t see why we should with these ones, even if they aren’t being specifically directed to do so

Wondering how much the AI bubble wobbles if Republicans lose control of the governing bodies. Do investors lose confidence they won't be regulated (this musing is separate from my own belief that most establishment Democrats don't have the spine to regulate AI).

I've been using DuckDuckGo for months and my conclusion is that their promise to not force AI on you is empty: their results are flooded with AI and their refusal to let you block more than 5 sites is therefore forcing AI upon you.
