I'm beyond sick and tired of seeing my trans friends constantly terrified and threatened just for existing. Call your senators today and demand they oppose the Big Bullshit Bill. We CANNOT lose gender-affirming healthcare.

Last year almost every poster I saw outside for festivals and plays was made using genAI. Today I could only spot a single one between ten. Keep talking down on AI tech bros, keep being loud, keep making it as EMBARRASSING and SHAMEFUL as possible to use this tech, because it is genuinely working! ✊

My doctor changed my diagnosis to "Endocrine Disorder" in November without me asking--because he saw the writing on the wall. Ask your doctors to do the same--Just to protect your access to life-saving medication.

This. This is morally and ethically correct. a fascist, illegitimate regime has no right to restrict your medical care much less to do so out of cruelty & murderous intent. You have every right to survive and thrive and these are radical acts of hope & fascist refusal.

If you're out of the loop, here is a very VERY brief comic touching on just the little bits I know. This bill can (and WILL, if passed again) redefine sex as it applies to law, eliminate gender affirming healthcare access, and prevent insurance coverage FOR it. #art #transrightsarehumanrights

Boycotting large chains is a privilege. Protesting is a privilege. Moving States or countries is a privilege. Prepping is a privilege. Growing your own food is a privilege. Stockpiling meds is a privilege. Far too many of the “solutions” to fascism are inaccessible to many disabled people.

Here's a thread of verified civilians trying to survive in Gaza. Their Bsky accounts are constantly deleted, so I’ll post directly to their funds. These are real people, in desperate need of help. We’re their only lifeline due to the aid blockades. Please give if you can and share. 1/17

I love that Japan is going to Tax single people and childless couples instead of doing one (1) single thing about its harrowing work culture and appalling discrimination towards working women. Great job guys!

Heba has raised very little- she told me she was poor before all this happened and has just been desperately trying to survive the past few years. If you can help give her and her boys a chance please do.

Am I the only one not impressed by this AI Vader thing? Like, not even on an “AI bad” level? It’s literally just every AI chatbot, just with a 3D model. The Fortnite gameplay’s taken a complete backseat; if you want to talk to Darth Vader so badly, just use Character AI or some shit.

No exceptions. If you use Gen A I in any capacity whatsoever, you suck. Yes, the way you're using it too. You're not special. "She probably doesn't mean me" I do.

This is not an idle threat, either. Most publications will not only fire you, they will blacklist you for using AI. Some of our fields are small, and we talk, mostly because we tend to run in the same circles. You will be found out.

America is complicit in the slaughter of the Palestinian people. 2.2 million people are trapped. Disease is spreading. Children are starving to death. And we continue to provide U.S. military aid to Netanyahu.

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

Using AI is basically crossing a digital picket line, and treating authors who use it like scabs feels appropriate. If you care about your rights and the rights of other creatives, you don't use generative AI under any circumstances (marketing, editing, drafting, outlining, artwork, narration, etc.)

Bills that ban porn DO NOT get rid of porn. Porn, like abortions, moves underground, and any industry health/safety regulations put in place disappear. Women in sex work suffer, and a purposefully vague definition of what constitutes porn will be used to ban queer literature. This is Christocracy bs

Worth noting: All the problems within the company have come from a single individual, who just so happens to own and run the company. If ownership were handed over to someone else (which is highly unlikely) or this person was removed, then I would re-evaluate my stance. But as I said: unlikely.

For those failing to get the "copilot" AI off their Microsoft Word -- If you proceed with canceling Microsoft Office, you'll get a "wait wait don't go!" screen where they suddenly offer you "Microsoft 365 Personal Classic" -- which doesn't include AI and is actually cheaper! Weird workaround.

I can understand the feeling of "saving time" by using genAi for "not-doing" stuff. But... if you're in a course, job or relationship where you constantly urge to "not-do" things... You're in fact wasting time by being in the wrong place. You don't need a hack, you need to rethink your life choices.

We can flip some if we run candidates who follow the tried-and-true strategy of "attack, attack, attack" instead of the proven-loser of "emphasize your common ground with Republicans."
