I’m not trying to “look at me, I’m one of the good ones” I promise. But I think it’s even worse than cannibalism honestly. That level of violation and dehumanization is unforgivable.

You can’t have it both ways. You can’t be “It’s simple math, vote blue no matter who, grow up” and ALSO believe you are fighting fascism by making calculations as to who’s expendable. The world we’re in now demands more from us. More from everyone.

This is alarming and you need to read it. This is only the beginning. It WILL get worse when more and more of these fake articles get generated. What even is shared reality if we are fed hallucinations as news?

Hallucinating AI robots wrote an article in one of the largest English papers in the world saying I quit writing to become a gardener. I did not! Instead, I wrote about them. Read on: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/i-wandered...
A fake AI generated article about me in the July 2026 Times of India. No i did not quit writing to become a gardener, as they claim!

Naturally. Kitty! You can’t turn them away. My mom keeps collecting strays. They won’t go inside so they get fed outside which naturally means more show up. She complains but she loves it 😸

The vibe looks so much more traditionally Star Wars too. Like the gap has been bridged from mando.

I don’t come on Bluesky often enough. I should come around more. But I must say you two are still so adorable. ☺️

Travis @travis.social · 28/07/2026
No what I meant was, early on in the film we see the heroic side of it. Then at the end we see the tragic side of it and the explanation of the trauma and guild Odysseus carries.

@coolzonemedia.bsky.social wait is Robert actually dril? This would explain Behind the Bastards.

The cyclops was equally scary for the heroes and sad. So well done. I had my earplugs in when the earth trembled due to his footsteps so thankfully I didn’t get that bit lol Seeing the horror of Troy rather than the heroic side of it was such perfect juxtaposition.

YES! All you have to do is read about the biological processes that determine assumed sex. It is so incredibly variable even prior to birth. Assigning sex and calling it done is clearly wrong in significant numbers of cases. The “basic biology” argument just shows you didn’t get past punnet squares

I love the original but have yet to watch the adaptation. Not against it just don’t see much of a reason to. I assume it’s pretty good?
