Learning in school is not enough. You must continue to teach yourself throughout your life. Study history, read myths, memorize poems, get acquainted with the greatest philosophers & writers. In an age when tech is cooking many brains, we need an army of autodidacts.

to my mind the woman who dies of sepsis because of antiabortion laws, or the person who dies because they can't afford insulin -- these are just as much victims of political violence as the man shot through the throat while making a racist speech

Ford and Carney are marching in lockstep. Look at Federal
Bill C5 and Fords Bill 5.
Remember: when politicians say “red tape,” they mean “environmental and safety regulations and/or agreements with Indigenous communities.”

Not feeling great about being unable to distinguish Mark Carney’s statements from Doug Ford’s 😐

Amnesty Canada 🇨🇦 is warning us about our government, please pay attention.
After a disappointing first 100 days of Canada’s 45th Parliament, the federal government under Prime Minister Mark Carney must change course and reverse the declining state of human rights protection in Canada.

Canada elected a neoliberal banker who scrapped the carbon tax and paused the EV car mandates while the country is on fire. He's demanding austerity for social programs while pouring billions into the military.

While corporate profits soar so do mass layoffs.

This sets the stage for fascism

This is vital now, and going forward.💜
Absolutely! Humanity, community, and government is a response to Darwinism. We survived as a species as a collective who protected and provided for the vulnerable amongst us.

AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action

It is my birthday tomorrow! If you want to do something for me, I have a big request.

Think of somebody in your life who is struggling. Make them soup. Play a videogame with them. Help get their window unstuck.

You don't know how far a little goodness can go. But I believe in you.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life.

And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

Because they don't see them as hobbies through the process of which joy is created, they see them as arduous processes which rewards one with goods, acclaim, and success at the end. They're not trying to acquire a new hobby, they're trying to optimize the time and labor out of a productive process.
Why are so many AI people trying to get into hobbies they absolutely despise? "Fuck reading just give me the summary", Fuck art just make it for me", "I got ideas but fuck actually writing" like??? Maybe just find something you enjoy doing and do that?????

🚨 you cannot be neuro-affirming and be transphobic at the same time

these are mutually exclusive terms
diametrically opposed states of being
not possible to embody concurrently

thank you for your attention to this urgent matter

If Meta's glasses used AI to blur images of every human form until that human gives them a "I consent to being filmed" signal, I guarantee sales would plummet.

They're perv glasses, made by pervs, for pervs.

Old Soviet joke for today:

A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.

After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”

“I’m looking for the obituaries.”

“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”

“Not the one I’m looking for.”

They just want to conquer a thing like always. They don't give a fuck about anyone who built it, they just want to say they did/can

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

Get some of the death pheromone on him so he keeps getting thrown back on the dead ant pile
We should just pretend he’s dead. If we say it often enough, we can gaslight his followers into believing it. “That’s not him, he’s dead. It’s all AI. Don’t tell me you fell for that.”
