Actual librarian. Misanthrope in theory. When not getting paid: parent, queer lady, belly dancer, witch, Pagan, fatty, spare cat fur repository, and other things that trigger fash.

The President of the United States unilaterally levied a tax on all of us and is redistributing our taxes to a core segment of his supporters.
Trump: "I'm delighted to announce this afternoon that the US will be taking a small portion of the hundreds of billions of dollars we receive in tariffs ... and we're going to be giving and providing it to the farmers in economic assistance. We love our farmers. The farmers like me ... $12 billion"

This is a perfect example as to why we need AI regulation yesterday.
AI cannot be the arbiter of whether human beings can live or die. This is an excuse for insurance companies to fire human workers and make our healthcare system even more nightmarish for a quick buck.

Reading Rooms at the British Library are closed *all week* because so many of its workers refuse to work for pitiful wages in a contemptuously authoritarian and obliviously managed environment.
We need leaders who get it and are big enough to sort it out!
It’s a mess and a disgrace.
Lift it up!!

Still disgusted that OU threw a grad student under the bus in favor of a lazy undergrad who didn’t want to do the reading or writing one week. It takes so much hard work and merit (good scores/grades) to get to grad school. Don’t try to tell me that any of this admin knows about hard work or merit.

"The math is brutal and the juxtaposition stark: millions for OpenAI while pink slips go out to longtime lecturers. The CSU isn’t investing in education—it’s outsourcing it, paying premium prices for a chatbot many students were already using for free."

AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself
Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.

I think an important thing to understand about brofluencer ideology is that they do not just deny that being toxic and shitty makes you a less appealing partner, they insist that women are only genuinely attracted to toxic and shitty men and being kind will instead make women lose respect for you.
I'm starting to wonder how much "the male loneliness epidemic" is just straight and bisexual women identifying low-effort, mean, and incompetent men and choosing not to date, marry, and tolerate them anymore

ICE is literally being used by a fascist criminal regime as their personal army to assault, abduct, kidnap, imprison and terrorize people of color and their perceived enemies. They aren’t a lawful agency, they’re a criminal Gestapo.

Missourians sit in the uneasy space between a constitutional right, and the reality on the ground - a state where voters voted to restore abortion access, but where it's still largely out of reach. The previous laws have to be repealed first, but meanwhile Republicans plan a new ban.
Abortion rights returned to Missouri one year ago. Access never did • Missouri Independent
Abortion rights became law one year ago in Missouri. How few abortions happened since illustrates the difficulty of rebuilding access once it's decimated.

Since this post, nearly 300 of you donated about $11k and I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. The union shared photos with me today of food being distributed. Remaining money will be evenly distributed among the 160 union members in the form of gift cards. Thank you. ❤️
