@BarneyFlames This was one of the books the brought me out from being leftist. I read this because it was recommended to me and was like “ehm… this is basically genocidal…”
English
quite literally one of the most popular texts among academic leftists is a book about how prole white people need to be genocided for the left to achieve its goals
English
its just obviously true that libs hate conservatives almost genocidally

I am detecting some tension between "liberals are terrible at modeling the minds of their political opponents" and "liberals just straight up hate rural whites".

@olorininir @JoshDaws "See, AI art is merely indistinguishable from one of the lesser paintings of one of the world's best artists. It can't yet replicate the very best masterpiece of the very best human artist."
English
@JoshDaws the comments are pointing out this is not a well known monet if it is, probably because... it is not that good
saying AI is on par with a painting that is not good (and apparently AI didn't even make this) makes for a pretty pathetic gotcha
English
I love how the comments have now shifted to assertions that Monet is overrated. It couldn’t possibly be that you can’t always tell the difference between AI generated and the real deal like you constantly claim. Hate AI all you want, but you need better arguments against it than “I can always spot AI slop.”

i just generated an image in the style of a Monet painting using AI please describe, in as much detail as possible, what makes this inferior to a real Monet painting

One big wake up moment I had was driving through rural Alabama, taking the back roads between Huntsville and Birmingham. There were huge 5000+ sqft houses with $60k trucks parked in front the entire way.
You don't see that going through rural Germany.
Ross Douthat@DouthatNYT
America has its "fallen" regions, esp. in the Rust Belt, and its emptying rural areas, esp. in the high plains. But generally the experience of driving the country is the constant discovery of money and development in places that look like the middle of nowhere on the map.

He's significantly more gifted than Mamdani and he's trying something 10x harder

Amazon/MGM is reportedly pushing for Jacob Elordi to lead the James Bond (2028) reboot. He is in “pole position” to be cast as next JAMES BOND, according to multiple sources He’s reportedly met with Denis Villeneuve If cast, he’d be the youngest James Bond ever.

I'm doing a modern remake of 'Mrs Doubtfire' where the Daniel character doesn't use any prosthetics or wigs, and just changes his pronouns. Everyone goes along with it except the mother, who protests. She's branded transphobic and Daniel gets custody of the children.

@Watchman_motto I love the river walk, though it’s a shame how small it is
English
It’s amazing how a simple thing, like building around a river, rather than destroying it, can make your city famous. Everyone talks about the riverwalk in San Antonio. We like water, it’s pretty simple. Why aren’t we doing this in more places?

@c_h_e_m @martianwyrdlord Is that the whole staff? Every job title has either “senior” or “director in it

@martianwyrdlord Look at their staff page : eff.org/about/staff
Can you tell the difference between that page and a Antifa meeting? Cause I can't.

"Solid B cities might not have the MoMA, but they are likely to have good museums, a great brewery scene, a functional bike path, and a minor-league stadium. To live in a place you can afford with a municipal government that works, this hardly seems like a consolation prize."

@MrOpinionsLLC @Nasaaeaoa It’s not really the 7th largest city in the country. By metropolitan population I think it’s like 24th
English
@Nasaaeaoa San Antonio I'd nominate, just for being the 7th biggest city in the US, yet not known for much except The Alamo and a few minor things (Riverwalk, a few military bases)
English
This has got to be the most irrelevant metro area relative to it's population, right? 1.5 mil in a place most people have never even heard of
