  Maybe something could be hacked together to fix copyright, but further complication there is just going to make accurate enforcement even harder. And we already have Google (in YouTube) already doing a shitty job of it and that’s… One of the largest companies on earth.

  We should just kill copyright. Yes, it’ll disrupt Hollywood. Yes it’ll disrupt the music industry. Yes it’ll make it even harder to be successful or wealthy as an author. But this is going to happen one way or the other so long as AI can be trained on copyrighted works (and maybe even if not). We might as well get started on the transition early.

  Ah you’re right. Torterra then

  I imagine it’ll look like paras

  I got a lot of down votes, but ^ is exactly the point. A man being raped by a woman is so far outside of everyone’s thoughts that it doesn’t even cross their mind when seeing an image like this. But the same joke with genders reversed would get people with pitchforks.

  I don’t think there was any actual rape here, as the comedian considers these encounters consensual. Which is the important bit factually. But if you couldn’t even imagine interpreting it that way then maybe you should think about why not?

  Rape is a serious crime and jokes about it are part of the culture that encourages and enables it

  Your carton did a shrinkflation on you. And a regular inflation

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the US, is this actually the moment past the point of no return?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s going to be a really shit 4 years. There could be a point of no return anytime along that based on a variety of issues, but IMO the most likely point of no return is if/when Trump moves to take a third term in '28. If that happens it’s clearly dead no hope.

  Because it’s buried in that Wikipedia article:

  Not a paradox. Tolerance is better viewed as a social contract - it’s not owed to those who don’t practice it themselves.

  If only it were so simple

  Exactly. That’s why I refuse to do algebra.
