So, so true.
If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

The complete Bayeux Tapestry has finally been released and proves that Bishop Odo had absolutely nothing to do with the illegal Norman invasion of England.

Astonished at the number of creative intelligent discerning people who casually use “I asked Chat GPT” when talking about their daily lives.

AI is bad, the work of bad people, who hate you, normalised with bad intent.

You wouldn’t say “I wrote to the Daily Mail”

I wish people had more shame.

I've got nothing to add really 🙌
Using AI to produce art is more than a mere difference of opinion. It is a choice to deprive yourself of the entire justification for existence. You are free, in the abstract, to make that choice. But you harm more than yourself when you do. I will not pretend otherwise.

Here's my two pennies' worth on that issue, from a Neurodivergent (and anti-capitalist) perspective 🧵:

In terms of neurodevelopmental conditions like ADHD and autism it's lack of societal awareness and understanding and unwillingness of many workplaces to make adjustments that makes people quit: its not that they're unfit to work, it's that the work market is not a right fit for ND people.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Heba. Heba made cakes before the war (her insta has many examples) but she lost her home and all her supplies. She’s hoping to replace them so she can support her children Waseem, 20 (who is injured), Wadih, 17, Tala, 15 and Elias, 8

Aya and Majd need support, as they're struggling with health-related costs and other costs of surviving ongoing genocide.
Please share her posts and support them if you can: Aya is an absolute hero and has been performing true miracles caring for her family ♥️

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mohammed. Mohammed is 22 and was studying electrical engineering (you can read about his family in the 🧵 ). He’s trying to help his family including his pregnant sister Rasha and his 4 year old nephew Khamis who started kindergarten yesterday!

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

Nothing has undermined my faith in media reporting like the genocide in Gaza did. Shame on them forever for repeatedly using human lives (& lives lost) as some sort of unhinged rhetorical device. Seems like they have embraced the world of "alternative truths" & found it comfortable (& profitable)...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Nora. Nora’s husband Mohammed was killed and both her daughters Warda, 5 and Fida, 3 were injured in a bombing on the third day of the war. Since then they have been displaced in a tent with her mother and niece, and are struggling to survive.

Remember that when you say something like "I support the work, not the author" as a justification to consume any of the HP franchise products, your money goes straight into funding hate groups hellbent on trans erasure and you are in fact supporting the author, as the two are inseparable.
