As long as its AI slopaganda anyway, WHY can't it be audio described too????

 Is it okay to admit that the barrage of AI "slopaganda" related to the war in Iran are a bit of a guilty pleasure?

Some of the videos are so dead-on that RantWoman wonders where the authors are getting their cultural insights?

In some cases, RantWoman would be just fine with the content if it were not for the certainty that the content is coming from forces that probably do not have US interests at heart and are happily playing into multiple fractures in US society.

Never mind all that.

RantWoman has one simple question: as long as all the videos are all AI-generated anyway, can't SOMEONE add an audio description track for all the viewers who can't follow the frenzy and probably couldn't stand some of the imagery even if we could follow it?

Pretty please.

Here are a few examples just to fire up everyone's literary instincts and try to tackle the visual complexity.

Nice music. What is on screen?

RantWoman realizes that the audio experience is a little less frenetic if RantWoman listens at noraml speed than if she were to listen at her usual 1.5x

A collection of the Lego Iran War Movie bangers

At least some of the clips here have subtitles but RantWoman is thinking of Bad Bunny's halftime show and all the different rounds of cultural examination she has seen about it. Do some of these clips need that much cultural interpretation too? OR based on subtitles RantWoman manages to read, is it safe to just file it as dueling war propaganda in the same bucket as the Secretary of #WarCrimes praying?

Ai Ai Ai: Elon tripping over his own hubris.

In case RantWoman has not been sufficiently clear, RantWoman is a GIANT AI skeptic. RantWoman blesses the video below for addressing Elon Musk and Grok in particular. The video is a literary delight, a rant fully worthy of RantWoman's endorsement.

RantWoman has also remained on X, or as RantWoman is prone to say when not reverting to Twitter, Elon's sandbox. Recently someone has been dumping AI related curricula from several major universities. Also, a whole slew of articles has appeared about fatal flaws in various AI models. 

Theoretically, if RantWoman wanted to sound fully informed and use the jargon of the moment, she could read up. RantWoman is, though, going to take the chance that meaning can be generated with or without the most current jargon.

Basically, Elon's promise to rewrite the whole corpus of human knowledge sounds to RantWoman like hubris. RantWoman already once blurted out, in one of her X accounts, that Elon needs to STOP PEEING ON  HIS BRAND.  Perhaps if Elon would take the following commentary to heart and let the community of users do our thing, knowledge would get transformed without him needing to fall on his face tripping over his hubris.

With that as intro, please enjoy the following commentary.

Comment RantWoman posted

1. Mobility aids are NOT Weapons. WTF with the weapons charges for what multiple sources have said are CURTAIN RODS? Thank you for the description of two poles. I could not make that out in the body cam video released by Buffalo PD. Curtain rods are, of course, not standard white canes many people use, but other people do use walking poles for all kinds of reasons. 2. LOTS of blind people, even blind professionals with excellent travel skills get lost sometimes. It seems like Mr. Shah Alam is charged for: --getting lost while brown --getting lost while Muslim --getting lost while blind --getting lost while not speaking English. --accidentally trespassing 3. The body cam video of the original arrest you mentioned featured a female officer SCREAMING at Mr. Shah Alam to drop the poles or she was going to taser him, like he has any clue what a taser is. Then there is a melee, reportedly by two officers who somehow could not de-escalate the situation.

In other words, Mr. Shah Alam was WAY overcharged for what should have MAYBE been a simple trespassing issue. What is the source for hearing that Mr. Shah Alam's family and attorney were waiting for him when he was released? Reporting I have seen says there were no efforts to contact family or attorney. This case is heartbreaking and infuriating on so many levels, and so much worse for the Muslim communities because it's Ramadan. And unfortunately, except for the extra issues because of blindness and medical fragility, this case is all too similar t DHS general Deport First and due process be damned policies.

Melania. Melania. The world plans to miss your movie.

Update from the YouTube comment repeated below:

A theater in Boston has been running ads promising free tickets and $50 to anyone willing to sit through the new Melania movie. RantWoman is forced to contemplate how much she would have to be paid. RantWoman thinks the privilege of RantWoman's eyeballs and attention on this movie should be worth at least $50,000, the same as the bonus being offered to people willing to sign up for ICE thuggery. RantWoman promises to be a LOT less violent and to TRY to find something redeeming about the movie and / or the current first lady. RantWoman admits it may be a tough sell, but RantWoman is ready for the challenge.

Trump Forced To Cancel This As Melania Humiliates Him Publicly

The US deserves a first lady who either is interesting enough for someone to want to make a documentary about without paying a bribe or modest enough not to care about documentaries.

Needless to say, I am NOT going to spend money on this movie but if someone wanted to bribe me with good popcorn and some form of light alcohol, just out of pity I would be happy to sit through the movie and try to find something redeeming to say about it or about Melania or about the ways the press attacks her. Probably looking for intellectual depth from a former underwear model is not realistic, but in a spirit of adventure I would be willing to try.

The whole thing reminds me of a cartoon I saw during the Reagan administration. Ronald and Nancy Reagan were standing next to Mikhail and Raisa Gorbachev and the text had Pres. Reagan saying to Nancy "It's ok. I will get you a PhD in philosophy in the morning."

Interpreter level knowledge of 9 languages learned while growing up in a Housing project???

RantWoman means to research and fact check a couple points but enough of the story rings true to RantWoman based on educational background and experience that this is a powerful story.

The bias / discrimination angle also rings true.

"I SPEAK 9 LANGUAGES" — Said the Young Black Woman... The Judge Laughed,...

The way the story is told definitely lacks that US English dialect usually called legalese. I assume what actually happened in court as reflected in a transcript would be closer to standard courtroom argot with presentation of credentials by all the professionals serving as witnesses Since specific companies are mentioned, it should be easy to fact check. It would also be interesting to see how the court record reflects the demonstrations of different languages, says someone who has done some legal interpreting.

The story mentions specific companies and legal cases that can probably be easily researched. It also uses language I as someone familiar with dialect issues in different widely spoken languages recognize in professional terms. The way this story is told does not reflect legalese probably used in court proceedings so anyone who doubts the general thrust is free to research further.

That should have happened a month after #J6 and no one should have waited around for him to decide to run again before deciding to file charges. On the other hand. if #GrandpaSleepyhead where anyone else, he would already be a dementia patient with a court appointed guardian managing his affairs. If he doesn't leave office feet first before the end of this term, the goal needs to be secure, genteel, well-supervised retirement. And EVERYONE of both parties is going to need to focus on undoing all the damage his reign of error is doing to US democracy, US national security, and realities for ordinary hard-working people in the US.

ICE Agents CAUGHT Arresting Comedian For HUMILIATING Them

Forget tone "policing" RantWoman is about to go full generalissimo with a humble request to protestors.

1. Evidence from ICE hiring standards and ICE Barbie's endless propaganda efforts is that a lot of the brand new just signed on for the bonus ICE recruits are undertrained, uneducated, humor-impaired, and extremely thin-skinned. NONE of that is an excuse for all the different thuggery they are trying to pull off, but MAYBE could y'all, all y'all protestors possibly consider passing on at least SOME of the opportunities to torment and antagonize them? RantWoman admires creativity and really, really, really thinks y'all could all do MUCH better about verbal communications. So PLEASE try. Pretty please.

2. I don't blame the vulnerable families, veterans, people with disabilities, NEIGHBORS across from the ICE House of Ill Repute in Portland for being resentful of tear gas, blast balls. Try to sound concerned about them and keep pointing out that protestors aren't the ones bringing the tear gas and blast balls.

3. Remember this is about immigrants and all the hard work, creativity, richness they bring to the country. RantWoman is not sure how, meaningfully, to say "we've got your back," President #StableGenius keeps going off about how immigrants bring diseases. Immigrants have the same health issues as many other people in the US, but the President complaining about immigrants is NUTS when his own Secretary of Health and Human services is doing everything he can to shred public health infrastructure, disease surveillance, and OF COURSE vaccination.  Plenty of other really important "don't blame the immigrants talking points need airing and people who aren't crazy about running around in frog suits need to get their points heard too. Word!

And another video for the road

And Robby Roadsteamer in his own words. RantWoman recants, SOMEWHAT.

The Noble committee just doesn't have enough categories for all the ways President #StableGenius is overachieving

With the anticipated announcement of this year's Nobel Peace Prize and Prsident #StableGenius endless imprecations to please, pretty please, pretty, pretty please recognize fabulousness like never before seen and award him the prize, RantWoman has come to several realizations. 

🚨Nobel Prize Committee Drops SURPRISE TRUMP BOMB

Forget those silly Norwegians who ordinarily hand out Nobel Prizes. They clearly have nowhere near enough categories for all the ways that President #FartsALot and his cadre of sycophants are distinguishing themselves with contributions to the betterment of humanity.

RantWoman has no opinion about who should staff this brand new shiny gold-plated Noble Committee. The internet probably abounds with aspirants and RantWoman refuses to be in charge. RantWoman simply offers some prizes they might consider awarding.

President #StableGenius certainly deserves a No Bull piss prize. Incontinence happens if only because of rumors of his diaper-wearing. Why pretend?

The No Bell Peas prize to be awarded to anyone in the President's circle who can convince to be bold and try some vegetables--besides what's involved in Big Macs and French fries.

Consider the Noble Pries for Litterchur, to be awarded to the hapless staffers who crank the White House toddler's  endless supply of BS provided in his daily briefings. The President probably does not even know where most of the countries he claims to have brought peace to are located.

Next, the Noble Flies of Bad Medicine, awarded to #BrainWormBob, aka Secretary of Health and Human services #RFKjr

The Noble Fleece Price for everyone ducking unflattering data about the economy, the jobs report, gas and grocery prices, not to mention the epidemic of corporate price gougers

The Noble Fleas Prize for the Secretary of Agriculture because why should anyone leave out an economic sector getting clobbered by the #TrumpTariffs and this administration's deport-a-rama.

The Noble Flies of Physics? What Physics to all the climate deniers, oil companies terrified of wind power,

All additional suggestions welcome.

Lawrence on Trump attacking the rule of law: We are all Harvard. We are ...

RantWoman's comment

Thank you for the recitation of Harvard contributions.

People MUST start litigating which of the Velveeta Voldemort outrages fall outside the boundaries of "official acts."

Part of what was gross to me about the conversation with Bukele was Bukele saying, based on ZERO due process in either The US or El Salvador that Mr. Garcia is a terrorist and why would he send a terrorist into the US?

I hope to GOD there are people in El Salvador who can and will call BS on the prisons for hire topic for exactly the same reason. Why should El Salvador let the US send thenm Venezuelans? The MS 13 issue is different but people in the US accused of being MS 13 are still entitled to due process.

Mr. Garcia's wife is a US citizen. The US DOES IN FACT, at least sometimes, help the family members of other US citizens unlawfully detained abroad and that should absolutely happen in this case.

In other words, horrific reality notwithstanding, I refuse to believe the whole mess is hopeless

And from Rachel Madow

Trump exposed in hot mic moment planning further abuse of power

and of course with a RantWoman comment.

So aside from playing silly games with the wording of #SCOTUS rulings, wanna bet that part of the point of this drama is to distract everyone from all the disastrous fallout from his tariffs, or to take everyone's eyes off the markets and a bunch of insider trading and financial market shenanigans?

That said, when asked about returning Mr. Garcia, Mr Bukele made some comment about "why would we send our terrorists to the US?" Terrorists according to whose due process???

BUT if he is going to play that card, shouldn't the people of El Salvador have a choice about which "terrorists" they are willing to receive in their government's prisons for hire gig?

And, serious question, what is Mr. Bukele going to do when all the people working in the US get deported and stop sending money home to prop up the economy.

Supreme Court Creates ITS OWN MESS With Trump

RantWoman's questions

I keep saying in human rights terms, there is a straight line from Abu Ghraib to this case. I hesitate to ask what if anything the concept of "due process" means in El Salvador, but what possibility is there for Mr. Garcia to petition the salvadoran government for release? If the US really cared, shouldn't someone under normal diplomatic order be able to hire a Salvadoran lawyer to assist with petitions. That would definitely be a step to FACILITATE release. What I saw of Trump and Bukele comments: "Bukele was saying but why would I send a terrorist to the US???" And if the US is going to try to send citizens to El Salvador, is there any basis under Salvadoran law for citizens to call BS on this prisons for hire scheme? I know the political atmosphere in El Salvador makes this difficult, but I figure it's worth asking. Mr. Garcia's wife is a US citizen. He will have a US citizen child. (The part of my brain that finds Stephen Miller disgusting half suspects that one more brown baby probably sticks in his craw. I DON'T CARE) Anyway, is there anything Mr. Garcia's wife can do either in the US or in El salvador to facilitate further progress? What finally won people held at Guantanamo to get legal representation? Is it just that people were finally in a US base or something else? Is any of it applicable here?

Kids, Kids, Kids: an eruption from Protest Curmudgeon

YouTube served up to RantWoman the following item unbidden 

SEATTLE COPS ARREST NOTORIOUS ANTIFA MILITANT DURING ANTI-ICE PROTEST

This is a scene from what was reported to be a protest against Trump administration immigration, er mass deportation policies.

The video was contributed by a little regarded "journalist" known for work that depicts Seattle as a tear gass filled dystopia full of homeless people and other modern urban horrors. But PLEASE don't shoot the messenger.

RantWoman's point: There is NOTHING about this exact clip that says "We are very concerned about the safety of people most vulnerable to Carrot Man's machinations. NOTHING that says we value all the contributions that immigrants make to our community. NOTHING that says "Yep, there are a small percentage of really dangerous creeps among immigrant populations, but heck, there are plenty of disgusting creeps among the non-immigrant population as well."

Maybe the woman in the video was having a bad day. Maybe she is grasping for more varied vocabulary and a clearer message. Either way, please tolerate a bit of motherly advice. If possible, there are PLENTY of scared people who need well-aimed assistance. Also, Protest Curmudgeon has plenty else to talk about, so pretty please....
