Birthright citizenship is a Constitutional RIGHT. Any attack on it is an attack on us all.

This is an attempt by far-right justices to attack immigrant communities and remove protections from any American who questions Trump.

Your rights are nonnegotiable. We can’t compromise on that basic fact.

see the reason it was important for us to dismantle democracy and turn control over to the tech oligarchs is so they can evolve humanity by giving us important inventions like second life but shit, shrimp jesus, and ugly car that explodes and kills you instantly
This is Meta’s brand new ad for Horizon Worlds. Not sure how I’m supposed to feel about it.

As a historian of late medieval Italy, it has always been clear to me that unfettered private wealth is the mortal foe of republican experiments and always has been. I’ve stopped teaching that history with any regularity, but it’s time to restart I think.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

If you've got stories to send in and want a swift response now's the time to do it.

Looking for the unsettling, the ambiguous, the stuff that actively resists explanation. Dark fantasy, bleak science fiction, unsettling horror, and the weird speculative stuff that defies genre.

Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser fighting hidden assassins and birds? Painted by me at 16, way back in 1978. Glorious.

The Bone Ransom

Framed for his mother’s murder, hunted by his sister & her pet monster, Talson Ravenpiper joins with a traditional enemy to restore the family legacy. The problem is, maybe all legacies are not worth preserving. And some enemies become lovers.

If George RR Martin decided to make a bonfire out of his unpublished drafts and freed himself from a fandom full of ghouls, grifters, and clout chasers, I would gladly light the first match

House of the Dragon season 2 was straight up poorly written and paced but we haven't talked enough about its insidious gender essentialism

This woman was profiled in the book, The Quiet Damage. While most of the people profiled had clear cut mental health issues and turned to QAnon as a cope, this woman was clearly just plain stupid. Completely credulous. Imagine if Joe Rogan was a woman from SF who attended drumming circles.

Couldn't get a better example of how AI is inefficient, expensive, ugly, and doesn't even really work than Coke using AI to generate a full movie's worth of unusable assets which are given to talented people to fix.

A gentle reminder before I fuck off to eat breakfast:
The push to replace artists with AI is a fascist push. The devaluing of arts and humanities in favor of engineering and computers is a fascist push. Students being unable to read a book is, yep, a fascist push.

No I do not want to use your AI generated instructional video. No I do not want Grok to write my lesson plans. No I do not think kids should be taught that ChatGPT is a great starting place for essays. Oh, the school is letting you do a training on it for the whole staff? Mandatory?

i fucking hate elon musk. it used to be you could at least bully him on twitter but now it's fully X and you can't even do that, so what's the point?
I briefly put principles and values aside to make a saltier, crankier case for leaving X: Elon Musk is uniquely insufferable holapapi.substack.com/p/x-out
