This is just venting really. Because I don’t know what else to do at this point. But holy shit am I tired of my chronic illness. I had a sliver of hope yesterday morning that I was coming out of a flare that’s been lasting the better part of two months. But by late afternoon, I was thrown back.

I don’t like to throw around the term rape culture often for a variety of reasons, but this? THIS is rape culture.
It exists to intimidate women into minimizing their public prominence, which serves to strengthen male dominance in culture, society, and politics.

One example of how Grok is being used to target women. Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch being sexualised, degraded, and humiliated step-by-step by Grok. All the images accurately reflect the prompts provided.

This is awesome. 👏
NEW: A hacktivist dressed as Pink Ranger from the Power Rangers wiped three white supremacist websites on stage at the end of a talk at a hacker conference.
The hacker also published users’ data on the website okstupid.lol.
The three sites are still down, a week after the live hack.

I particularly like the part in there where this beanie insecure capitalist doesn’t grasp the fundamentals of the economic system he loves so much.

Trying to determine if my spoons are plentiful enough to join the protests today. It’s not looking great. My heart and mind are screaming to go. My body is screaming the opposite. This is the hardest thing about having a chronic illness. I want to support but not be a burden.

The big thing about the blatant imperialism here is that Trump doesn’t have the ability to at least sugar coat or even lie about the reasoning for #Venezuela. One small hope of mine is that more folks start to realize that this has always been the US. This is not new. This is very American.

And to add, media outlets are framing it as though the AI bot is a conscious living being “taking responsibility” to further avoid any human accountability.
Unless I'm missing something, and I'm pretty sure I'm not, Twitter's AI is cranking out CSAM deepfakes, Elon Musk is making jokes about it, and nobody is doing anything to stop it or hold anyone at Twitter accountable for its creation and distribution.
Is that right?
