Chat, generative AI has completely cooked society.
If you don't know how already, you need to learn how to identify fake images and videos. And for the love of god stop just sharing things out without verifying!

Finished story mode in Pokopia tonight and started our cloud island. Now the real fun begins π₯Ή
I regularly say to myself, "I need a grown up" when thinking about everything that's going on but I fear there's not enough left.
Then I remember I'm a literal grownup and I need to show up and take care of things now.
The only thing we can do is to keep on fighting for what's right.
Keep speaking up, keep the pressure on the ones driving this dumpster fire off a cliff.
It's getting harder and harder, but we just keep on swimming.
Everything feels hopeless. It feels inevitable. It's maddening. Enraging even, because there have been giant glaring signs for a decade telling us what would happen if we didn't stop, but not enough people paid attention.
Letting a madman bomb another country (a SCHOOL!!) so he feels important is fucking insane.
Every person who enabled this farce should face trial and be judged accordingly.
It's fast spiraling out of control, and I just don't have any answers for how to stop it.
I am not equipped to intellectually talk about everything happening right now. I'm not a foreign policy expert, or a polisci major. I don't have years of experience understanding the anthropological complexities of conflict in the Middle East.
But I do know that what we're doing is wrong.

Me catching up on news after rebuilding a post-apocalyptic pokemon world all weekend
The damage Donald Trump is doing to the world will take decades to remedy, and if he is not stopped we may never recover.
A cheese-tastic garlic pizza-bread.
Oh my gawd that crumb.
We don't need @modpizza.com, we have that at home
Now's as good a time as any!
A messy desk covered in way too many hockey cards next to a laptop with a spreadsheet open. A bulbasuar appears (on the oodie)
Taking a break from cozy gaming to catalog alllll the hockey cards in prep for a maybe live show???
Yes I am drinking chai from a Jameson pint glass. No I'm not a birds fan.
It's almost like the people running the AI companies don't realize all they built was a giant echo chamber that get progressively worse and worse the further you spiral into AI-induced psychosis...
It's so bad out there. I've also been on hiring panels within the last year reviewing these applications and so many are bots or deeply unserious applications because people are just throwing things everywhere hoping SOMETHING sticks.
Honestly do the analysts ever talk to real people? Anyone who actually works for a living has know this for at least a year.
I applied to over 300 jobs last spring, all of which I was qualified for, and got 4 interviews. I'm still getting auto deny form emails a year later...
Just saw the MAGA pokopia meme and I want to barf. This is the SECOND time they've used pokemon to further their hateful agenda and I hope Nintendo sues the fuck out of them.
Trading him at 1am this morning is fucking diabolical.
Little Donny says he "guesses" Americans should be worried about strikes on US soil because some people will die.
He should be worried about what's coming for him this fall.
Heres the answer to my questions: bsky.app/profile/tani...
What are the special election rules in OK, and is it something we can realistically flip?
Now that Congress remembers how to do its job, do the rest now. Let's start with Kash.
Hearing ICE Barbie been taken out to the farm??
It's so freaking adorable, I love it so much already.
It's Pokopia release day and yes I will be burying myself in a Pokemon-Minecraft-Animal Crossing hybrid to distract me from *all of this*
Fully agree there which is why I try to be really vocal about races like this where both candidates are amazing AND EITHER ONE WOULD BE INCREDIBLE.
But now that primaries are over, we gotta back that horse. What they did in NYC to mamdani can't happen this fall.
I do love the Carnegie library though, was one of my favorite places to read while in college.
As a carney*, a state fair carney!
Omg CARNEY! Why would it even correct to that!?
Progressives CANT win in every district... yet.
But they can win in a lot more now, thanks to the work of moderates who have been turning red areas purple over the last decade, opening them up to more and more progressive candidates who run and win.
