the thing about ONE NIGHT ONLY is that it's stupid and entertaining, and i can't say i had a bad time, but it's also weirdly conservative and maybe a little evil

[Austinsseus @awoodustin]

There’s a real argument to be made that just as this film has a very modern American view of war

It also has a very Christian view of the Gods. It’s a film that focuses on faith rather than direct proof. Theres even an argument to be made the Gods don’t exist at all in this film

Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads. Meta and X, every other thing is an ad. Pinterest is nothing but ads. AI is in everything. AI finishes sentences incorrectly and won’t stop. AI reads your email and search history to target you with more ads. Every time you open an app or visit a site there’s an update making it worse. In a hurry?

Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon. Never mind, you didn’t respond to their text within 9 minutes and now you’re no longer friends. They blocked you. Make new friends. Download this app to find people in your area. In your neighborhood. On your street. Two doors down from you. Do you know this person yet, we think you’d get along. You need an account to use this app. That username is taken. Enter a password.

Allow the app to access your contacts, know your precise location, store your credit card details. Oops, sorry, we got hacked now all that info is available on the web. There’s a class action suit. You can join. It’ll take a decade to get your $3.73 share of the ten billion settlement. We’ll send it via PayPal or deposit it to your bank, just tell us those details. Oh no, another hack. That info is circulating now, too. Here’s a spam call, a spam email, a spam text. Why are you angry? Why are you talking about getting rid of your phone? Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

@Eric_T_Racher You gained a follower here! I’m jealous I wasn’t aware of the book when it was originally on sale at Dalkey

Good meme from the Pynchon subreddit as I embark on a long weekend with Mason & Dixon by my side.

They’ll make movies about this one day and everyone will weep — including the ones who stayed silent while it was happening in real time.

This is beyond horrifying.

New data shows Israel has killed over 680,000 Palestinians in Gaza.

Among them:

• 380,000 infants under 5
• 99,000 children over 5

That’s 479,000 children murdered by Israel.

Israel isn’t “defending itself.”

It is wiping out Palestinian life.

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

this has played out identically 100 times at this point. hamas went from making reasonable demands like permanent ceasefire / all idf leaving gaza to conceding to all of israel’s insane demands & israel’s still rejecting the ceasefire. they want to complete the genocide.
