I remember doing the deal for Epic Mickey, and Bob Iger shooting laser beams out his eyes at me in the Disney dining room. “Don’t let this video game fuck up Mickey.”

We really need to double down on outwardly stating our work does not contain AI.
We're seeing it in movie credits and books, we have to start putting it on things we make and pressuring others to label their work as human made, and normalize that as much as we can, I think.

amount of money spent on this could be far better spent on third spaces and places for kids to do things other than use phones
it could be spent on helping kids with critical thinking skills. it could be spent on making life easier for families so parents can spend more time with children etc etc

I can't believe this - thank you everyone for pushing this even further to £120,000! I hugely appreciate everyone's support for The Trevor Project - this is the most we've ever raised in a year for Jingle Jam now!

I am so furious at YouTube for doing this. You have literal gambling ads plastered across your website. The video you take action on contains no real gambling, and is promoting an LGBTQ+ children's charity fundraiser. Absolutely horrendous image and optics for the website. Completely moronic
I am beyond upset, YouTube has age restricted my video tonight for thinking it depicts real actual gambling. The video is on CloeverPit and contains no real gambling, but does contain a massive charity push for The Trevor Project. Last time this happened I almost quit YouTube

None of this is ever really of any good quality, it's easily debunked, but that's not the point. In aggregate, however, it gives the impression that there is problems with trans people and our healthcare, otherwise why would there be so many articles and news pieces? And that's why it's the volume.

Shocking twist, there is actually some debate about whether the testosterone dose was too high. Overall the kid seems to be doing better with it than without it.

Something I have to reiterate is that you are being straight up lied to about trans people and our healthcare on an unfathomable scale, this instance reporting is already being torn to shreds by other people commenting, but the frequency of this kind of reporting is astonishing, it's neverending.
You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

In Aug 1969 the Royal Ulster Constabulary sent 3 armoured vehicles into the mostly catholic Divis Flats. They opened fire on 13 homes there with heavy-duty vehicle-mounted machine guns. Patrick's mother took her kids to the back of her flat to protect them, Patrick was killed in front of his family.
The PSNI has apologised to the family of Patrick Rooney, the first child killed in the Troubles.
The family will also receive "significant compensation," the High Court in Belfast heard this morning.

A company that protects its valuable IPs strongly and fiercely is investing in a company that has stolen IP from others. It's not the IP principle so much as they think this is going to print more money for them eventually. Money people have and will find the shittiest ways to exploit creatives.

This is fucking pathetic on Steam’s part. There’s no way in hell “has muslims” should be approved as criticism, and the DEI whining is the same hateful sentiment with a flimsy cover draped on.
I can only assume Valve *agrees* with the bigotry if it’s gonna keep claiming such nerdzi shit is valid.

Once again, I am begging you to document your processes at work.
Yes, it takes time and it's not a natural strength for a lot of people (maybe even most people). It is nevertheless worthwhile.
"They'll figure it out." No, they won't, and then you have to fix it.
