Bad Art Friend

congrats to The Residents for ticking all 15 of the "bad art" boxes

yes he's right abt the residents

That just feels like a “please ratio me” post.

there are so many of these trad art accounts, that ones particularly low qual tho

things that make me :) vs things that go :(

needless to say its all just nazi bs and none of them care about art at all

these bullshit takes are precision guided for negative engagement

The most annoying people in the world love to say there is no objective difference between good art and bad art. So I made a list

Painfully obvious that the first sentence is concocting an imaginary problem that only exists as a pretext to justify his tweeting out the list that he'd already written. Lame.

its true, then if you zoom out what do these z tier right wing personalities want is there a greater plan do they see themselves on fox news one day or are they just in it for the engagement, pure posting

i know the top retvrn guy bronze age pervert has broken through to a higher level he has a book billionaires are listening to him and so forth

Seems like every day I happen upon a thread like this where almost every single reply would result in a justified ban from Twitter just a year ago

This is the link, should put a content warning about extreme genocidal homophobia before anyone clicks

prefer bean dad to 4chan TheWesternCanon guys posting bait and then responding with pepe memes tbqh.

With Elon Musk, Saudi Arabia is now the second-largest owner of Twitter https://t.co/zC2g1OYQik

lately it's been all boner pills and weed gummies, tbh I'm kind of considering combining them

gummie boners

Basically podcast ads

Vince Bevins is such a mensch

At least in his reporting— The Jakarta Method is a must read book

https://www.wsj.com/tech/elon-musk-twitter-x-takeover-walter-isaacson-5f553fa

niedermeyer on bsky: "Just read this entire excerpt from the upcoming Walter Isaacson book on Elon Musk, and am gratified to report that no amount of friendly spin can keep him from coming across as an incredibly off-putting, unhealthy, vindictive weirdo. The punchline is that Elon couldn't get out of overpaying for Twitter by tens of billions of dollars so he made up for it by screwing Twitter execs out of $200m in severance and stock options and called it a W. You know, real Ben Franklin, Albert Einstein, Leonardo DaVinci shit. Good going, Walter."

That led Bankman-Fried to call Musk in May. “My bullshit detector went off like red alert on a Geiger counter,” Musk says. Bankman-Fried began talking rapidly, all about himself. “He was talking like he was on speed or Adderall, a mile a minute,” Musk says. “I thought he was supposed to be asking me questions about the deal, but he kept telling me the things he was doing. And I was thinking, ‘Dude, calm down.’” The feeling was mutual; Bankman-Fried thought Musk seemed nuts. The call lasted a half hour, and Bankman-Fried ended up neither investing nor rolling over his Twitter stock.

lol

time to roll out what i call "soylent blue"

that logo looks like an aeroplane next to two vertical structures

this shit makes the gilded age look like the New Deal

Gilded Age work week was six days, workdays were 12 hours, child labor was rampant and life expectancy under 60. I'd still prefer this era, bad as it is.

wow checkmate

just due diligence

produces stagnation

twitter or whatever it's called requires ongoing child labour to function so what are we doing here

thank god it's them instead of you

me so chastened

how could I not see that the Gilded Age should be viewed as the good old days compared to now?

Let's wait and see how many striking actors and writers get gunned down by Pinkertons

sign me up for the saudis getting my DNA

solidarity to the actors & writers but they're not exactly mining cobalt are they

assassination of union leaders, like child labour, mostly outsourced to the global South these days

news flash: the late nineteenth century also had colonialism

The Gilded Age was fantastic if you were a robber baron or a corrupt politician.

nothing in my statement to make anyone think there wasn't colonialism in the 19th century but sure aimless fume away

my comment was not solely directed at your post, Daniel, but more toward multiple posts that imply that the persistence of capitalism and colonialism in the present day somehow negates my dissent to the idea that ex-twitter's new policy "makes the gilded age look like the New Deal"

things bad then things bad now different but also same

pedantic nitpicking of rhetorical statements uncool

sometimes hyperbole overshoots into just plain silliness

most of us could stand to be sillier

sometimes it does feel like this pic.twitter.com/towU6yBIcU

Something went wrong, but don’t fret — it’s not your fault.

Never noticed this laughable message before.
