Zelensky knows how to play the game though

The Newsmax desk, apparently

AI is so wildly popular because it’s cheap, and through the lens of the consumer (read untrained eye), the best of it evokes emotions they get from a piece that would go for hundreds or thousands of dollars.

I just went to an art museum that had a bunch of Van Gogh’s sunflower pieces on display, and I can assure you, AI art will never be able to invoke the kind of emotional response as I got from looking at those paintings. I’m not an artist, I haven’t taken an art class since high school, so my eye is pretty damn untrained. But even I can appreciate the history of the pieces, the artist behind the work, the headspace he was in and how it affected the finished piece, the extreme conditions he had to overcome just to finish some of the pieces. That’s a huge part of what evokes emotion in an art piece - knowing the story of the art and the artist. And that’s something AI art will never have.

AI art is cheap, sure, but it’s hollow, and people will always be able to tell that.

They don’t have to go to the trouble, there’s traitors here at home that will be more than willing to meddle

Cool, that’s not what gun control means

Probably the grammatical incorrectness of it

No, probably not.

Huh. I want to make something very clear: I’m not trying to tone police - please, by all means, paint whatever you want on your own property. Free speech and all that.

However, if I saw that in an area that I knew was deep red, I don’t know that my first thought would be “hell yeah, that dude’s protesting Nazism/Zionism” 😬

So you painted swastikas all over your own property in a deep red area… in protest?

Who’s building is that?

Other way around

Any time anyone ever mentions extra-terrestrial rail guns, I immediately think of this NPC exchange in ME2:

Nobody is saying trans people are unsafe or untrustworthy or even “less” than.

Yes they are, or else trans inclusion in sports would be treated as the common-sense no-brainer that it is, instead of openly opposed. And how is this reasoning a stretch? It’s literally a bigot dog whistle, the exact same type of discriminatory “reasoning” that was used to justify segregation. It’s not even consistent with his whole “God loves all people, including queer and trans people, equally” schtick, because if that were true, they’d be treated equally. And until all of us are equal, none of us are equal.

His stance on trans people in sports for one. He says he opposes trans people in sports if it affects the “safety or fairness” of the sport. It’s the exact same line white racists used to justify segregation in sports. It implies trans people are inherently unsafe, untrustworthy, or otherwise “less” than non-trans people, ie, treating them as second-class citizens.

Eh, Jesus is better than the old testament God, but even he still does some pretty shitty stuff in the new testament. That’s the thing about Christianity (and most organized religions) though, it doesn’t have to make sense or be consistent or even moral or ethical. It’s propaganda, a tool for controlling the masses, not actual philosophical doctrine.

“feels different”? When talking about real actual day-to-day life, he talks about trans people like they’re second class citizens.

No winning maybe, but there’s certainly losing, which is what he’s doing by siding with people that are pro-genocide.

After spending years cultivating his “regular guy” facade and doing shows in support of Ukraine, yes

We’re already mad at Kraft. We’re mad at the billionaire class in general. Kraft’s behavior is not novel. Ed’s is. That’s why his actions are getting more attention. We didn’t know Ed would side with the enemy till now.
