Oh, please don't insult our intelligence. LAPD still murdered that lady's dog.

One time I wish something was AI. I couldn't help crying listening to her grief and seeing that lifeless dog. Ugh.

[selwyn kane apologist @deannareads]

a Black woman couldn’t even celebrate the knicks win in the comfort of her own home without her neighbor calling the cops on her, and they killed her dog.

I think it’s fair to say that the U.S. is no longer a constitutional republic but an oligarchy serving foreign-lobby interests over its own citizens.

[Kristen @Missuriro]

Haha NOPE! There were classes I absolutely hated and struggled with, but I never felt that I was suffering. I love that feeling of having something finally click into place in my mind.

[Tim Gill @timgill924]

Let’s be honest. All these people upset about college students using AI are just jealous they didn’t have it when they were in college. They just want them to suffer like they did. It’s an old story: “Well if I suffered, they should too.” It’s also a morally repugnant position.

[Kristen @Missuriro]

@Her_Nonymous_D Please never stop trying to do right! Not gonna lie, if someone talked to me like that I'd want to say "screw you" . But there are plenty of selfish people in the world, and we don't need more. You tried to bless that man even if he didn't appreciate it. That's important.

[Kristen @Missuriro]

Huh. The idea that painters didn't paint EXACTLY what they wanted us to see is... interesting to say the least.

Also, the slop version is unbearably flat and depressing compared to Van Gogh's work.

[vittorio @IterIntellectus]

finally AI can show us what painters wanted us to see

“disabled people need AI” not as much as they need WATER dumbass

Someone said “Baby Boomers did that thing where you leave a single square of toilet paper on the roll and pretend it’s not your turn to change it, but with a whole society” and now I can’t stop thinking about it.

And the artwork was energetic and full of emotion. The AI one is the definition of "slop"

The reason why the Take On Me music video is so famous is because it was created by real artists using a technique called rotoscoping. They drew over 3,000 frames and it took 16 weeks

Seeing how the Bezos are ruining the whole vibe of The Met Gala makes me appreciate WHY Mrs Astor made it her mission to keep the riff raff out in The Gilded Age 🤷🏾‍♀️😂

[Dr. Allison Wiltz @queenie4rmnola]

It is terrible. That’s why Ida B Wells, who witnessed the rise of Jim Crow said “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.” Civil rights are never permanently won. Each generation must do their part.

[Kristen @Missuriro]

Late on Saturday nights ABC (or CBS?) used to show old movies in the public domain with wonky sound quality. Nick-at-Nite literally had a "Block Party Summer" where they showed I Love Lucy, Gilligan's Island, I Dream of Genie, etc. Let's be for real.

[Upstate Federalist @upstatefederlst]

People out here acting like 80s and 90s kids regularly watched movies from the 50s and 60s.

@ximtorturedpoet Yes! A sweet, cozy, stand-alone episode released on Christmas day. Absolutely. And it would be a nice way to bring ALL the siblings together at least once a season.

To the MAGA folks who are all, “Lol we told you he wouldn’t go through with it!” you’re missing the point. Anybody who threatens nuclear annihilation, even as a “negotiating tactic” shouldn’t be anywhere near the Oval Office. He embarrasses and diminishes this country every day.
