I first saw The Transformers: The Movie (1986) 20 years ago, and in the two decades of being a Transformers fan since I've always assumed that Wreck-Gar and the other Junkions spoke in random TV quotes because, like... their robot brains were intercepting stray TV signals from Earth. Something like that. Right?

So anyway now I'm watching the entire G1 cartoon with Anthony, because he wanted more context for who the hell the characters in the IDW comics are. Which means sitting down and watching all of season 3 for the first time in my life, because I could never track down the DVDs as a kid and as an adult I just never bothered watching more than a few noteworthy episodes. So imagine my surprise when we get to "The Killing Jar" and Wreck-Gar is depicted as literally just sitting there on Junkion watching a Bozo the Clown knockoff on an old rabbit ear TV set he somehow inexplicably owns light-years away from Earth and parroting phrases like an iPad baby

They could do anything in '80s cartoons. No idea was too stupid

I always think about how in 20 years, when the internet is a much bigger graveyard of dead links and deactivated accounts, nobody is going to be like "well theres massive amounts of art that is now lost forever, but at least some twitter artist didn't get their feelings hurt by someone reposting their art!"

Everyone was happy with the occupation's withdrawal from eastern Gaza, but the surprise was their location.

My hot take is that the internet has been more fundementally changed by the replacement of forums by Discord than by AI

tried to explain to a white liberal that i felt weird seeing white people make racist sounding jokes about AI ("tin crow laws", "wirebacks/silverbacks", "my daughter better not come home with no god damn clanker") because of how ingrained it is into the "white" identity to incite genocide by inventing an outgroup, and how that's the only "white heritage" that exists because "whiteness" was invented 200 years ago from ideology.

i was told i was "flexing my history knowledge" for bringing this up, and then accused of promoting bioessentialism for saying racism defines white blood-- something objectively true, as "whiteness" cannot exist without an outgroup.

There is a pervasive ideological construction that someone either deserves autonomy or support, but that these are mutually exclusive.

This artificial construction is extremely present when it comes to discourses about age and ability. People will discuss taking away choices or censoring information as "protecting" young and disabled people, and will discuss taking away material support as a necessary exchange for decision making (e.g. "if you live under my roof, you live under my rules"--a threat that asserting autonomy comes at the cost of homelessness). This dynamic is so foundational to the oppression of children that even when applied to adult groups we use words like paternalism and infantilization to communicate that a group of adults is being treated "like children."

Whenever you demand autonomy, people use this as justification to withdraw resources and care. Whenever you express your need for resources and care, people use this as justification to withdraw bodily autonomy. In reality, all people deserve bodily autonomy and care. And in reality, oppressed people are routinely denied both.

That thing so many people say like "Don't use AI instead commission some anonymous person from the global south on fiverr for 5$ and have them do it for you" is actually so hilarious we truly are not people for impcorers LOL! "instead of using the scary image machine why not exploit some vulnerable worker taking advantage of your global positioning?" WOW THANKS THAT SOUNDS SO MUCH BETTER AND NOT DEHUMANIZING AT ALL!
