Not the first to say it, but certain people understood that the book said not to build the torment nexus just fine. They like the torment nexus & its horrible effects. They use the cautionary tale as a blueprint on purpose and with full understanding of what they’re doing.

Since I’m in a Martina Topley-Bird mood, and jumping off of Massive Attack perfection…

I’ve had Martina Topley-Bird’s song “Ilya” stuck in my head for weeks thanks to the hockey show (this is not a bad thing). This post is brought to you by me currently watching the protag on Pluribus sing word association songs about what she’s doing and observing.

This Christmas, I have just one wish for you:
Take a moment to really see the older people in your life.
Let them know they’re loved, valued, and never invisible.
Share a smile with an elder you don’t know.
Offer a warm holiday greeting.
Small gestures carry enormous power.
Love,
Lynda 🎄✨

You are painting a vision of a future in which teachers create lessons with "A.i.," students complete them with "A.i.," and teachers grade them with "A.i."
No learning takes place under this system.
The only benefactors of this system are the corporations being paid for the "A.i." products.

Kind of amazing we’re in the midst of an open campaign for resegregation and people are still willing to play the “are you sure racism is real?” card.

I have been looking at Black Friday sales for a week but I do not actually need anything so instead I closed all those tabs and bought a Polaroid for a foster kid in Florida who uses photography to deal with big feelings. Perhaps you would like to do the same for one of the kids at the link below?
🧵 We are, in fact, doing the thing again for @onesimplewish.bsky.social. In 2024, the kind people of this community put the money cannon on blast to help grant $75K in wishes for children in foster care. Toys, tech, a suit for job interviews. Here we go again! 👇

Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

If you have phone anxiety, call tonight and leave a message (it’s Sunday. The offices are closed). Include your ZIP Code as part of your message to let them know you’re a constituent.
Asking anyone who's got energy to do so to call their Dem Senators and urge them not to back down on healthcare. 🙏
Your friends who are too sick to work to access healthcare are going to be really fucked otherwise. Being too sick to work means no paycheck to cover now-exorbitant marketplace plans.
