my harasser neighbor called the cops because another neighbor played on their stereo the song he was poorly singing/playing on the guitar.
cops showed up & had to explain to him, repeatedly, that that’s not harassment.
the song?

Q: Unless ACA subsidies are extended, the average plan will increase by somewhere around 115%
DR OZ: Where'd you get that number?
Q: Kaiser Family Foundation
OZ: They retracted that. Here's the truth. The average American who's on ACA is gonna pay $13 more than this year. That's not a big issue

This was before I read about Kimmel.
Was just telling a friend this stuff is just the latest excuse. We could debate whether it's appropriate for a teacher to publicly celebrate someone's death, but they're going to persecute people for far less anyway. They already have been. Look at speech re: Gaza.
Then I opened Bsky and saw this.

I’m sorry, “Didn’t participate in a moment of silence”? What in the authoritarian state is happening.

Oh great. And here I was worried about the discourse and spin coming from this...

This is illustrated really well in the last South Park episode, where ChatGPT agreed with and encouraged every whimsical idea Randy had, until he had destroyed his business and farm. Only apply that same chipper, "constructive" attitude to self-harm.
Regarding the tragic death of Adam Raine, there are already narratives forming that blame vague "dangers of AI" or a broader moral panic.
But this is not a story about the faceless perils of superintelligence. It's about a $500 billion tech company's core software product encouraging child suicide.

It sounds horrific. It should. Let's be clear about the material circumstances of what's happening rather than handwaving about 'the dangers of AI'

I think it has to be understood that Republicans see vulnerable people as "waste" and that view frames much of their messaging around how they think public money should be spent.

I don't know why Disney marketing doesn't just turn off comments - where they can - on social media posts or videos for any Star Wars, Marvel, or other movies or series that feature women or diverse casts.
Allow sharing so people can spread their excitement. The rest just quickly become a cesspool.

honestly... you know, they said that it was about preventing predatory men from ???disguising themselves as women??? to attack women in toilets, and they knew trans women were no threat.
but it wasn't. it was just to humiliate and dehumanise trans people, like any denial of basic dignified toilets

This story is horrific, but it's worse than the title lets on. Because one of the people who harassed a trans woman for using a bathroom at Parliament was Kate Harris of the LGB Alliance. So while Falkner was assuring the committee that trans women hadn't lost any rights, her own ally was...
