So it turns out ABC used AI all throughout Game 1 whenever they went to commercial. Check out this sequence where a modern championship tag spontaneously blooms on the back of Hakeem Olajuwon's jersey, followed by another where Kobe and Ron Harper twitch awkwardly w each other.

The most 1999 thing about the previous NBA Finals between the Knicks and the Spurs might be that the Spurs were playing StarCraft against each other in between games

When I was a kid, I was weirdly fascinated with the idea of giant trees growing indoors and always thought it'd make the coolest fantasy story interior, and so I got a big kick out of actually seeing it realized in an episode of Witch Hat Atelier.

The Rockets players at halftime listening to Udoka and realizing that every game they win means another day that they have to be around him

And finally the Tony Parker sequence, which hilariously begins with an index finger waving to the right of the screen and I imaging it's because the producers literally combined their "waving a finger" prompt into both AI-ified photos at the same time, which is insane laziness.

Knicks-Hawks Game 6

The more I've seen the Ant dunk over John Collins from 2 yrs ago, the more I've come to believe that it might be the best looking posterization of all time from the broadcast camera. Some dunks might look better on instant replay, but from the live game cam this is hard to top.

Here's another sequence where they transformed a pair of photos of Bill Russell and Scottie Pippen, making Pippen's muscles look very weird

When there's an "incident" with the Discover feed

Posted 20 hrs ago "_paperplanet_: A call has the power to save a life & this is especially true for queer #kids. Trump cut that line, then erased every mention of #trans and #queer people from 360 #government records. Through this hotline trained counselors, picked up the phone..." Thread 2 👇

13 Americans killed in action. Hundreds wounded. Thousands of civilians dead. The regime in Tehran? Still intact. @ossoff.senate.gov on Trump’s war in Iran: “A huge self-inflicted wound.”

Video 1: Peskov says there's no risk of fuel disruptions in Russia despite drone attacks. He says there might be some "seasonal preventative maintenance", whatever that means. Video 2: a resident of Russian-occupied Crimea shows that there's no fuel available at a gas stop⤵️

Low poly Hodela :> Allow me to properly debut Hodela, who has been floating around the back of my head for about a year (and appeared briefly as pixel art). Finally sat down to finish up her visual details. 600 triangles, two 128px square textures (one just so I can give her a variety of faces).

Every time I hear “to what end ?”, this is what plays in my head..

Day 492 - Cutting gasoline/energy prices 50% by 19 JAN 2026 ? Just another broken promise. This video shows trump making that promise on 29 September 2024 at a campaign rally in Erie Pennsylvania. He also promised to NOT allow cuts to Medicaid/Medicare, and to lower grocery prices on day 1. Nope

In a powerful address to President von der Leyen, Valérie Hayer, leader of the European Parliament party Renew Europe, urged decisive action: a more united, sovereign, federal Europe capable of protecting its citizens. She stressed that only an institutional “big bang” can meet today’s challenges.

We want EVERY DAMN CENT that Trump and his criminal crew STOLE from the people of the USA. We demand Trump face JUSTICE and be held FULLY ACCOUNTABLE for his crimes. #Accountability #Justice #Trump

"He doesn't know what he's talking about... the problems at the Washington Post were entirely created by him." @karaswisher.bsky.social tells @timmiller.bsky.social that Jeff Bezos is wrong twice: about the media business, and about the idea that cozying up to Trump is the only way to survive it.

The Right's claiming Albo's a liar for a sensible policy change on negative gearing when the election policies weren't increasing supply quickly enough. Good govt's adjust. One Nation's Pauline Hanson on the hand is just a liar. Net Zero integrity. #auspol #OneNation

I'm one of those people who believes all these top players are doping on some level anyways. All those supplements they take "legally" & the TUEs are very sus to me.

I've been contacted by local residents about another potential pollution incident in the Loop River. I've informed NIEA and Andrew Muir's office, but both I believe are weak and ineffective. It's not a question of if, but when water quality becomes a risk to human health in NI.

President Trump’s mass deportation agenda and all-of-government approach to immigration is raising costs for everyone. Learn why in part two of this important 72 & Sunny episode at the link in my bio, on my congressional youtube page, or most podcast platforms.

The mAgA Agenda:

This is the only 3 second clip you will ever need to explain why Trump did something or said something when you realize how simple he is - everything starts to make sense everyone is always trying to "explain" the reason he did something, how it hurts others blah blah blah he doesn't care

🔵 Once seen as an agenda pushed onto Africa from outside, green policies are now clearly essential for African economies themselves - from cutting emissions to making borders and transport chains more resilient.
