Schachner says she is certain he was pleasuring himself while they had a conversation she thought was going to be about her career.

In a parade of clips, boldfaced names like Janeane Garofalo, Roseanne Barr, Dave Chappelle and others either defend Louis C.K. or blame the women who came forward or both. Clips of fans walking into one of his shows echo that attitude with a simple, dismissive notion: Everybody makes mistakes.

Meanwhile, the film depicts women who helped expose his misconduct as mostly still struggling, watching as more powerful comics friendly to Louis C.K. minimize their work and what he did to them.

[The documentary] Sorry/Not Sorry asks viewers to consider all this again – as pop culture’s short memory threatens to erode progress made by the #MeToo movement – insisting that the stories of those hurt by misconduct remain a central part of the conversation.

It’s crazy that you can read the individual attackers names (in the linked referenced other page), visit their social media profiles, see their happy family pictures, while they’re out there shelling other people and families.

And then you see even stuff like

- mother, on June 28, 2022, a day after the terrorist attack in Kremenchuk, reposted a post about “The Deadliest Plane - TU-22m3.” Missiles from such a plane hit the Amstor shopping mall;

Insane.

Holy mother of misinterpretation and misrepresentation. Did you not read their comment, did you not understand their comment, or did you choose to ignore and misrepresent it?

can’t have something unexpected non-standard in city traffic after all, that’s not allowed!

Over the last 3–4 months, we have observed that CPUs initially working well deteriorate over time, eventually failing. The failure rate we have observed from our own testing is nearly 100%, indicating it’s only a matter of time before affected CPUs fail.

damn

Everyone HAD to do it. ✂️

Ostrich didn’t win the pecking order.

Is this what you call a Roadhog?

Putin, Trump, and Musk. They’re doing the same thing. Lying without restraint, freely, at every opportunity.

"The European Commission offered X an illegal secret deal: If we quietly censored speech without telling anyone, they would not fine us.

Maybe we can translate that claim to what may have happened?

“The European Commission asked X to conform to regulation protecting its citizens or face fines.”

How about adding a check mark to the money icon? I think that fits better.

Name 💵✅ or Name 💵✔️

As if to say “has money”, or “spent money”.

Hello. This is the EU grammar police. Please fix your typo. Thank you for your cooperation.

Looks like he’s getting sucked in and will disappear

I certainly didn’t expect an acceptance speech…

Lol, they added a “Location” to the winners (winner characters)

I guess it’s more about the characters than only AI-generated images.

In a CNN article titled, “The first Miss AI has been crowned — and she’s a Moroccan lifestyle influencer,” fashion journalist Jacqui Palumbo writes, "Meet Kenza Layli, a Moroccan lifestyle influencer who hopes to bring ‘diversity and inclusivity’ to the AI creator landscape.

That’s the real problem, isn’t it? Not the original character contest, with a clear setting. But others promoting the characters as if they were real people.

There is no artistry. […] It’s all a bunch of fake stupidity and I can’t understand why anyone would care at all about this, much less deign to critique it from a feminist perspective. It doesn’t seem worthy of spending the time analyzing it to that degree.

I really don’t get this take.

If they’re crafting prompts and iterations they are crafting. If they’re crafting them according to artistic concerns on the output, there’s artistry.

It’s a different kind. But I don’t see why it would be immediately disqualified just because it’s something different.

It’s much closer to creative/producing arts than it is to classic beauty pageants.

Why would a girl feel pressured to look as good as an image that doesn’t have actual bones or organs or skin pores - not even fucking gravity.

If you can interpret it as an image of a woman then there is correlation. What they are sourced from doesn’t make a difference.

Do you think photoshopped images or makeup also don’t change perception and consequently influence beauty standards? Those are also not based on the inherent physical properties of the original bodies.

What do you mean? How so?

Erlinda Johnson, one of the state prosecutors on the case, resigned on Friday, the fourth prosecutor to quit or be forced to step down.

Four?? In and during one case?

Many legal analysts said the case should never have been brought to trial by the Santa Fe County District Attorney’s Office. “The prosecution felt it had to cheat to get the result it wanted,” said legal analyst Duncan Levin, a New York defense attorney. “This is the worst of our system on display.”

Judge Sommer asked Hancock who had decided to put Teske’s ammunition into a separate case file number.

Hancock said it was the decision of her supervisor, prosecutors and herself.
