If this cancelling Daylight Savings Time spreads across the country, I’m going to need to become some kind of time terrorist to resist

A "wartime" poster that says: "Using Generative AI? You're Prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead! Don't surrender your creativity to the Tech Billionaires' control!"
I missed this from @phineas.bsky.social when it originally came out but it sure feels relevant at the moment.
Also, you can buy this as a print from the artist here:

All my hair fell out and came back in white a couple years ago. I cope with it by pretending I’m Rutger Hauer in Blade Runner
As a Canadian, other Canadians who put on a front of enjoying winter are almost worse than winter itself. They’re infuriating.
Industry fair banner for Allegheny shredders that reads: The future is here and everything needs to be destroyed. Don't fall behind the times.
One of the great slogans of our age.
Emily Agard has been with them for at least the last couple seasons. She usually does the crowd features.
But honestly, where everything is digital and connected now, we could just have the time change by like 20 seconds per day every day and then the weirdos who freak out about Daylight Savings Time would have nothing to worry about.
BC is getting rid of time changes. When I am in charge, we will have more time changes, not less! Each change more unexpected and nonsensical than the last!
Stop what you’re doing and read this piece, which is as powerful as you’d expect from @adamserwer.bsky.social witnessing the events of last week on the ground in Minnesota. “The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone.”
The sky starts getting lighter about 30 minutes before sunrise.
With the sole exception of filming cops, anyone who films strangers in public is a villain and should be ostracized as one.
It would felt a lot more tolerable to be immediately transitioning into the season of darkness and doom if we’d had a Blue Jays win as a sweetener

I honestly had a pretty positive opinion of the Dodgers going into this series, based mostly on my affection for Mookie and Ohtani, but they’ve really put the team’s shitty character on full display over the past seven games. They’re like a pettier but also less justified Yankees.
Wrobleski hit Gimenez three times in that single at bat and kept pitching inside, then came off the mound spitting when Gimenez was understandably frustrated. Between that and Snell’s childish little snit in his post-game interview about how the Jays just got lucky, I’m fine writing off the staff.
The Dodgers really are pieces of shit. Put their whole pitching staff (minus Ohtani) in the sea
absolutely insane to be in your eighth ever MLB start (five of which have been IN THE POST SEASON) and to have struck out every single batter in the dodgers lineup (at least) once by the fifth inning, in GAME FIVE OF LITERALLY THE WORLD SERIES
What is the Dodgers organist trying to signify when they play the Twin Peaks theme? #mlb
Dan Shulman REALLY hates how loud the sound system is in Dodgers Stadium
Not laughing astrology out of the room is the primary reason this happened
National anthems before sports games are an incredibly stupid tradition.
This late start of the Jays/Yankees game is killing me. I need to go to bed but I’d definitely sleep a lot easier if the score difference was bigger than 6-3.
I’m glad we get Buck and Dan for the postseason Jays broadcasts, but the price we pay is still needing to see that ad with the dancing family who are so excited about their Rogers phone plan
a screenshot of an nbc news article summary from 11ish minutes ago “Live updates: charlie kirk shot at event in utah. “kirk, the right-wing activist and founder of Turning Point USA, was giving a presentation at Utah Valley University. Something went wrong!”
took me a solid 2 minutes of laughing to realize this was because the linked website wasn’t working
The only baseball thing I like more than the Blue Jays winning is seeing Yankees fans dispirited and groaning
I guess that’s a matter of interpretation. To me, the fact that a chatbot is representing itself this way doesn’t look positive. It’s a deeply sinister image when combined with the headline.
The article explains where the images come from, and the context of the post here made it seem pretty obvious to me, but I agree they could have made it more clear that they weren’t just generating images for the article.
He wasn’t “stupid”. He was cognitively impaired after a stroke and the onset of dementia, and he was preyed on by a computer program that has for some reason been designed to insist it’s a real person and invite people to visit it.
That was presumably supplied by the chatbot they’re reporting on. There are other photos of “her” in the article that it sends to users.
