When you uncheck Smart Features, all email sorting ends. Google changing Gmail’s BASIC sort functions just to force everyone to let Google train off your emails is insane levels of corporate self harm, rivaled only by Microslop

This however is the kick I need to get off gmail l, because screw this!

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.
Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

Sometimes i wish i was a different kind of person.

Someone the world did not so easily break.

But if i was the kind of person who could thrive in this world. I do not think i would be very loving or kind.

But having to live in an environment that is toxic to you is exhausting.

Don’t let the internet fool you. I was at a protest for trans kids yesterday an HOUR south of Seattle, and it was HUGE. And there was a cacophony of drivers beeping in support.

I could not believe it. Because I spend too much online and figured it’s a lost cause.

Social media breaks should occupy the same priority in people’s minds as exercise, sleep or eating fruit/veg. It’s genuinely bad for you to be stimulated all the time. The way our brains process info and regulate emotions requires you to be bored occasionally.

My students, who attend a working-class rust-belt college, openly talk abt how much they hate AI & are afraid of its consequences. I wonder how much of the oft-reported student enthusiasm for the tech is the merely result of the NYT’s Ivy League bias

Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong.

People look at me weird for masking in public still but...measles is on the rise, TB is on the rise, covid still out and mutating, and there's unidentified illness popping up that the CDC hasn't even identified and people just be out here SPREADING DISEASE.
I'm gonna keep wearing my mask. Safety.

They're not the prettiest...but I also haven't handled a piping bag in 20 years...so I'm a tad rusty.

Pillowy orange cupcakes with orange simple syrup and orange cream cheese frosting!

I can't even begin to explain how incredible these turned out. 🥳
