I am once again inviting anyone who wants to be an #artist to look at "Drawing on the right side of the brain". Your skill is not what holds you back, you are.

I'm a bleeding heart conservative, artist and philosopher, and I'm either really kind or a straight up dick depending on how much of an asshole you seem to be.

@Alientrap I think they should interpolate into their "new" positions, at different rates so it feels like they "settle"

"We have to arm them because they are so genocidal that they will murder everyone in every neighboring Country" is a wild attempt to defend Israel on ethics
Chico Muya@chico_ray
The Iron Dome isn’t necessarily to protect Israel. It’s there to protect the people constantly attacking Israel. If Israel didn’t have a way to shoot down missiles, they would have to neutralise the threat, at all cost. If every missile from Hamas hit homes, and killed people—I don’t think there would be a Gaza left. Despite what you hear, Israel consistently fights with one arm tied behind its back. It literally tells people where—and when—a strike is coming. They actually care about human life. Defences like the Iron Dome allow them to endure more, before acting. It makes them long suffering—even as the world lies about their military conduct. Israel’s enemies are genuinely retarded. They will continue firing projectiles forever, no matter how often they lose. No matter how many deals they’re offered. Leftists think it’s a good thing to remove Israel’s defensive weapons. Doing that is begging to see more brutal wars, with more casualties, more often. But hey, I don’t expect these people to think about the consequences of things.

@AGHamilton29 no one believes your bullshit any more

Mask off.
What really upsets them about the Iron Dome is that it limits the number of Israelis that terrorists can kill. That’s the mentioned “costs”. They prefer that number be higher. With no regards for how the lack of this tech would force Israel to respond.
Notice this isn’t even about a funding discussion.
Luckily, whether Israel has the technology to save lives isn’t dependent on people like Mehdi Hasan. They invented it. The funding question just relates to our role and extent of access we have to the tech.

@MaryDil29664033 @stringbean670 Republicans, the people that want them dead? Seems like an easy pull, you're right.
English
@LFTH_Alex @stringbean670 Then why are they never asking republicans for anything?!
English
I hate when queer people ignore reality because it's imperfect. The Dems have blocked almost all anti trans legislation the GOP has tried to pass.
luci 🏳️⚧️@lucytgirl_
so are yall gonna try and protect us or...?
English
@fakechuck @stringbean670 to protect them, you have to do more than stop a current attack, you have to prevent further ones.
It's like saying school shootings are fine because the police keep showing up
English
@LFTH_Alex @stringbean670 "Have they done anything to protect them besides literally protect them from harm that was actively levied at them?"
Fucking listen to yourself, dude. This is embarrassing.
English
@flurbylovesyou @stringbean670 Okay so SOME of them pass SOME trans protections in SOME states. Do you hear anything from Congressional Democrats that signals they care on a federal level?
English
@LFTH_Alex @stringbean670 Fighting to stop anti trans laws IS doing something lol. And they pass a bunch of pro trans protections in blue states but they don’t have power federally to do that. Which is why people have to vote for them if they want that
English
@stringbean670 If people keep pointing the gun at you, something needs done besides disarming each one

If someone points a gun at you and someone else knocks the gun away, did that 2nd person "do nothing"

Actually no, I hate Trump a lot more than anyone or anything else when it comes to politics. I just consider you all collaborators and enablers of Trump's rise and electoral conspiracy theories, and that is why I also hate you.

You guys can keep repeating it over and over but no matter how many times you repeat it, it doesn't make it true. The "Activist Left" was absolutely responsible for all of the worst excesses of 'identity politics' that people associate with the Dem brand.
Cole Sandick🌹🇵🇸🇺🇦🇸🇩@ColeSandick
This is the skeleton key for understanding the current crisis of the Democratic Party. They're seen as radical because they were ideologically hijacked—not by extreme leftists—but by extreme centrists with radical views on identity politics, Israel and representational politics.

@vacuumflowers @groove_sdc The settlers are inherently unjust by the acts necessary to be called a settler
English
@LFTH_Alex @groove_sdc You are empowering zionist narratives here. Refusing to draw a difference between, say, Europeans, and people who might only be where they are because their ancestors were ethnically cleansed from surrounding countries makes any violent act inherent unjust.
English
Killing 1,200 civilians even if they're settlers is not armed resistance and parachuting into a music festival to kill civilians is not armed resistance. It's terrorism.
Don't demand people call the war genocide and then play word games with a mass atrocity and war crimes.
Zak@zakfilm
Which makes it so disappointing that Emma Watson tried to both sides the Gaza genocide by repeating the propaganda that armed resistance against the occupation is terrorism and falsely equating it to the IDF. Even saying 50,000 Palestinians died which was not only a shamefully incorrect figure but she refused to say they were killed by Israel. An embarrassing activist that enabled the dehumanisation of Palestinians and has remained silent since.

@Riley_Gaines_ Bro you're the one persecuting Christ

We live in a world that hates Christ and those who believe in Him, but that's to be expected. Just as He was persecuted, so will we be.

Not a parody, not a comedy show item. Donald Trump has designed for his Presidential Library main hall, as its highlight, a 10m tall golden statue of himself.

@trouble_man90 Yeah but if you actually did the leftist things you'd win more elections

This isn’t true at all actually. Our unpopularity was caused by being associated with the far left. The majority of Americans think liberals and leftist are the same thing.

@JonahPlatt Why do you disagree with a narrative of not murdering children

A children’s platform. 12+ BILLION views. 19.2M subscribers. More than the entire Jewish population on Earth.
This isn’t fringe. This is how narratives get mainstreamed.

OpenAI's Sora made $2.1 million across its entire six-month life. That's everything the app has ever earned. In-app purchases, credit bundles, the works. Meanwhile, the app was costing over a million dollars a day just to keep the servers on.
That million-a-day number is actually the low end. A Wall Street analyst broke down what it takes to make a single 10-second Sora video: about $1.30 per clip. Sounds cheap until you realize each clip needs four specialized chips running together for about 10 minutes. At roughly $2 an hour per chip, that's how $1.30 adds up. When millions of people were using it back in November, Forbes estimated the daily bill was closer to $15 million. OpenAI's own head of Sora, Bill Peebles, said it in October: "The economics are currently completely unsustainable." He was the guy running it.
I keep coming back to the download curve because it shows how fast this thing bled out. November 2025: 3.33 million downloads in a single month. People were obsessed. By February: 1.13 million. Monthly downloads dropped by two-thirds in three months. Monthly revenue hit $540,000 in December and slid to $367,000 in January. The product was shrinking, and the bill wasn't.
But the money wasn't even the main problem. It was what those chips couldn't do while they were busy making videos. Every chip that rendered a 10-second deepfake couldn't answer a ChatGPT question or serve a paying business customer. Fidji Simo, who runs OpenAI's apps, told employees they couldn't afford "side quests" anymore. Their CFO, Sarah Friar, was blunter on CNBC: "We just are facing a lack of compute." Meaning: we don't have enough processing power to go around, and we're burning ours on this.
Disney got the worst of it. They'd put $1 billion on the table and signed a three-year deal letting Sora use characters from Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars. Per the Wall Street Journal, Disney found out Sora was getting axed less than an hour before OpenAI told the public. No money had actually moved yet. The whole deal just evaporated.
OpenAI is trying to go public later this year at a valuation of around $840 billion. A product burning an estimated $5.4 billion a year while bringing in $2.1 million total is the kind of number that makes investors choke. The app goes dark on April 26. Six months, start to finish.
