Indie authors & publishers aren't paid immediately, so there's just 9 days left to where any books bought in 2025 will be paid out to them. So I thought I'd do a thread where people could find some books!

(authors, please read 🧵first lol)

Fascinating. Microsoft emailed me to say it was raising the price of Microsoft 365, but when i went to cancel it offered me me the old price — without all the AI bullshit.

It’s forcing AI on everyone and making them pay more for it, then only telling them they don’t have to if they try to cancel.

QUIT YOUR JOB
“The frustration isn’t yet producing mass resignations or major internal protests, but the officers and agents described a workforce on edge, vilified by broad swaths of the public and bullied by Trump officials demanding more and more,” Nick Miroff writes.
Trump loves ICE. Its Workforce Has Never Been So Miserable.
A “mission impossible” deportation campaign has left many employees burned out and morally conflicted.

With the awful news from the last couple hours, this post from the political optimism subreddit helped to break through a bit of the despair fog. Repubs know this is political suicide, ICE's support is crumbling despite the budget increase, and there's a myriad of ways to fight back. Keep strong.

And, copyright and patent protections. These guys are billionaires because the U.S. government gave them monopoly rents.
Even if you ignore the shitty conditions of so many Amazon workers you're also ignoring that Amazon only exists because of government investment.

The government made the internet.

The postal service.

The roads when they pivoted to Amazon delivery trucks.

And critically: government contracts

Thinking, as I do often, about how DoorDash has a poorly flagged LLM functionality that writes purely speculative item descriptions, creating potentially false - and potentially deadly - information for people with allergies. More apps have health risks downstream of AI functionality than you think.
One of the ways in which generative AI will kill people is that yesterday, when the wet bulb temperature was nearing 119F, the conversational agent built into the weather app said it was "not a bad day for a bike ride as long as there's some shade". No. No it's not.

so it seems the take away is that if you have a Spotify sub, you’re paying for military technology development?
Spotify CEO Daniel Ek's firm has invested $690 million in AI-powered military startup Helsing.

Helsing builds AI-powered military decision-making software, and is moving to produce its own drones, aircraft, and submarines.

In case you can't tell what just happened, JK Rowling instructed her followers to take photos of anyone in a women's restroom who doesn't match their idea of Western feminine beauty standards. Short hair? Thick cheekbones/jaw? Too tall or broad-shouldered? You're now "a man" and will be harassed.
If you're still buying wizard book shit, you are no friend to the trans community. Here's the wizard book bigot inciting harassment against innocent people to her 14 million followers on the nazi app.

And no, they can't Always Tell.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

the 2016 NC bathroom bill cost the state 400 million dollars & was called the most anti-LGBT law in the US. president obama called for its repeal. by 2021, state-level trans bigotry was so normalized that trans people started to lose everything from bathroom to healthcare access in 24 states.
