Let them fight

Welcome to Garbage Weekend. It’s the internet garbage you know and love, but in a format that’s easier to read while you try to avoid wet bulb temperature.

This week, maybe the biggest protest in US history was enough to bully JD Vance off Bluesky, but not enough to stop President Donald Trump from supporting Israel's attacks on Iran. Get in loser, we're doing 2003 Part 2! Except now all the warmongers, like BuzzFeed lost causer Sen. Ted Cruz, can get generative AI to do all the manufacturing consent for them. In a complete coincidence, OpenAI, the company founded to avoid making Skynet, now has a $200 million defense contract to develop Skynet. Maybe it can lay siege to Cinderella Castle, after Disney sued Midjourney in the biggest copyright case against AI yet. We'd say "let them fight," except we might get in legal trouble ourselves.
