The reason A.I. is being shoved down our throats is shareholders want a return on their investment. Every company that integrates this crappy tech into their products knows you don't want it, but they've sunk too much money into it and don't care. Turn it off, don't use it, don't look back.

I have a little plea and it's this: please keep posting about things that aren't The Horrors. I am not saying to not look at or be informed about The Horrors. What I am saying—what I am genuinely kind of begging you to do—is keep posting about books and movies and sunsets and pets and joy. Please.

My immediate assumption about anyone who complains about DEI or similar is that they actually can’t compete on a level playing field

not coincidental that they did this as soon as they could be confident the federal govt had lost all interest in protecting consumers.
Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.

ok the Utah school book bans are awful, and part of a growing push for censorship, etc, but I must reluctantly acknowledge that it is quite funny that literally half their list is Sarah Maas books. I suspect the teens of Utah know what they want.

The State of Book Bans: Utah’s ‘No-Read List’ - PEN America
The law has now opened the floodgates for mass bans across Utah, and also requires schools to “dispose” of any banned books from their libraries.

We have so many other kittens right now & stories going on but I just haven’t gotten any good photos lately to make posts about them. The Sweet Treats, JJ, BumbleTus, Pikachu & Eevee, Turnip, Ash & Willow are all still looking for their people, & we have new faces to meet.

All groups are political. Your book club. Your knitting group. Your gardening collective. The companies from which you buy your food, clothes, entertainment. The place you work out. Right now, in this cultural moment, anything you can do in the groups you're in contact with makes a difference.
