if you are in a professional or personal situation where you cannot fully divest yourself from something being rightly boycotted, you've got an easy out: shut the fuck up. no one asked. you're free. i'm not your priest.
Whenever talks about boycotts come up, especially surrounding entertainment, there are always the people who will show up to say they agree before giving this big exposition dump about why they specifically need to keep doing the thing or whatever and not to judge them for it.

Nations are made up of people. Wars are waged against people just like you. When we act as if people and governments are the same thing we make a profound moral error.

there are so many amazing brilliant tech people out of work in this country. Maybe instead of garage startups based around sociopathic move fast and break thing business models we could start building garage coops and guilds and whatever other weirdness

I love when I email my Senator and this is part of the incredibly bland chat gpt auto-response not even responding to the issue I sent (public broadcasting in this case). Considering Bernie Moreno ran a crap ton of anti-trans ads in his campaign I’m not surprised.

I hate any time I have to go to LinkedIn for anything. Can’t even look at my feed it’s all AI scammers or the people recently fired they claimed to replace.

I’m sorry large remote research tool company that can barely get my Zoom calls scheduled properly; no I will not read your article about AI moderating. Have you even watched a qualitative interview ever? Genuine question.

(1/2) I'm Kas and I'm an introvert. I hate asking for things. @equalaccesspublicmedia.org is bigger than I am. More important than my comfort zone. It's honest news. Make this introvert's sacrifice worth it, just 5 - 10$ would be enough.

I'm here to care of my youngest brother this week post surgery! He still needs some help while navigating this weird financial time so that he doesn't have to return to work too early. Thanks to all who have helped out
My youngest brother has gender affirming surgery scheduled but found out that the leave policy isn't going to be helpful. If anyone has a few bucks to throw his way to help him cover missed wages during recovery, I'd appreciate it. ❤️

And “I would not be the first to observe that we are in a new phase of reaction, something probably best termed ‘postmodern conservatism’. The main effect of this shift has been to enshrine acting like a spoilt fifteen-year-old boy as the organising principle of the reactionary movement.”
"There was a time when reactionaries were able to create great art – Dostoyevsky, G.K Chesterton, Knut Hamsun, and so on – but that time has long passed. Decades of seething hatred of the humanities have left them unable to create, or even think about, art."

We need to stop making shitty surveys as excuses for not having imagination.
I once worked on a visual novel game where all the surveys and focus groups said that nobody wanted romance, they only wanted mystery and sci-fi.

Then 75+% of clicks in-game went to stories with explicit romantic or sexy themes.

'These kids do not care about romance': Game devs want to know what today's teens want, and surveys say sex and romance isn't it
Young people want stories about friendship more than romance, say researchers and industry execs.
