Oh yeh when Indiana Jones punches nazis he gets ANOTHER movie made after him, but when James Lane says punching nazis is ok HE Is “in breach of Tinder’s community guidelines”
whales never use generative AI, but they do make poop from a butt, which is similar except that whale poop is essential to the health of our oceans and generative AI is essential to being a fucking loser
Especially YouTube. Though it’s changed a LOT since its golden era, it’s still fundamentally a place where community is built and celebrated, and skill sharing and learning is a vast amount of the content present.
Laws made without the input of those they affect are statements of political arrogance. Physical spaces for young people have been gutted, educational spaces aren’t meeting needs, and now online spaces are inaccessible.
The state shouldn’t be playing the role of a parent. I’m no fan of social media, but I know enough about the difference it made in young people’s lives during Covid to be able to see that a blanket ruling is more damaging than it is protective.

Gen AI use is creatively, ethically, morally and environmentally bad for music, bad for art, and bad for the world at large.

If you need to mount a picture on a wall you use a hammer and a nail. Those are tools.
Gen AI is like telling an automatic hammer to mount the picture then taking all the credit for it being mounted and none of the fall when the wall comes down.
I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
underappreciated how crazy it is abba dancing queen opens in media res with ‘you can dance…’ not just opening with the chorus but halfway into the hook? high level shit those swedes were lightyears ahead… the way it makes it sound like it’s always playing somewhere… perfection
