Public service announcement: this is *not* a dire wolf.

It is a genetically modified grey wolf made to resemble an extinct species, so a bullshit company can raise more money for their bullshit projects.

#Deextinction is a scam on so many levels I don't even know where to begin. It will *not* help us save endangered species. Instead, we should spend our money on preserving their habitats *before* they go extinct.

"If you're trying to dunk on the practice by linking to articles or examples that showcase the work, inadvertently flooding people's timelines with examples of this ghoulish, stolen work, stop.

Nobody wants to see that shit. Nobody needs to see it."

Stop Sharing The Ghibli AI Slop, What Is Wrong With You - Aftermath

Nobody needs to see this shit

You can hardly find a studio the works of which are so thoughtful, kind, and intentional as Studio Ghibli. To stripmine that for its aesthetics, to take a piece of cardboard and paint it like food and say "See, doesn't this taste just as good?" is more than missing the point, it's barbaric, dystopian. It's an insult to life itself. #OpenAI

I just had a thought:

If the #USA actually _does_ invade #Canada , then #Tesla cars become valid military targets.

After all, ultimately they are controlled by #ElonMusk , who has already stated that "Canada is not a real country" and largely seems to support whatever inane thing #Trump wants to do.

And Tesla cars are already massive surveillance devices, and could probably be turned into autonomous #drones very easily with a few simple software updates by Tesla.

So... Canada (and #Greenland, etc.) should probably start banning these cars.

If you’re calling Mark Kelly (U.S. Navy combat pilot, NASA astronaut, and U.S. Senator) a traitor and Donald Trump (convicted felon, rapist, and Russia’s KGB agent “Krasnov”) your president, it might be time for a long look in the mirror.
