in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy

Absolutely devastated to have to deliver this news.

I have loved working at BuzzFeed so much but I have to stand up for what I believe in.

Please DO NOT send hate to anyone!

If anything changes regarding this, I will let you know.

Oh yeah - I work in marketing for a university and some of the LLM-based scientific research projects coming out have been incredible. But the keywords there are scientific research 😵‍💫 As soon as it enters arts & humanities spaces, it fails spectacularly.

My Labour MP lost my vote on this issue. Their fixation on AI is so weird.

If any tech people do happen to have the ears of billionaires, I am here with my wallet open saying I would pay EXTRA for devices and software that don't have AI in them. Please take my money.

I haven’t upgraded my phone for this exact reason. Clinging onto old AI-free tech for dear life.

Adobe once again proving they are the absolute worst.

Never touching their stuff again if I can help it. The issue I had trying to cancel my membership a few years ago was a SAGA.

Uuuuuugh - makes my skin crawl. But not that surprising coming from her.

Let me know how it is! I fancy watching it too.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio) YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

Iceland had it on sale last time I got it 😁

It reminds me of salad cream but more … Monster.

Ngl it’s really tasty.

“New technologies will come along to save the environment.” What they said versus where we are:

From the new Private Eye, in shops now.

If it weren’t for the bots, the place would be a wasteland. Dead internet theory in real time.

Just further proof that all the money in the world can’t buy you class, friends, or even people who slightly like you 😂 I know Twitter wasn’t perfect before then, but the day they let him take over was the beginning of the end.

I deleted mine years ago and it was -freeing-. It’s just a non-consensual p*rn site now. So sad.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!! 🎄✨

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday with family and loved ones, and ring in a happy new year!

I covered this in my premium last week, it’s laughable!

I love painting holiday cards for our friends and family. This one of a Winter elf, is a favorite.✨🎄✨

Was at a Christmas party with a load of clergy last night and as some people were leaving they found a person collapsed on the street outside so the Verger took over and called an ambulance and sent all the clergy away because "if they wake up surrounded by priests that'll just make things worse"

December 21 is the winter solstice, which means that in the Northern Hemisphere:

- The path of the Sun is farthest south in the sky
- The Sun travels the shortest path, giving the day the least daylight and the longest night
- Things can only get lighter from here

Aaaaaah we were there too! Two levels above 😍 Wasn’t it brilliant?

"concept artists can experiment with AI to make their lives easi-"

wrong

I smack you with Claire Hummel's immaculate and detailed understanding of costume design, which she got by studying historical references, which made her strong, which you will not become by relying on AI

get good

screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
