me when the big wooden horse rolls up

Every use of AI that I hate is downstream of corporate capitalism. Why are students and teachers alike turning to ChatGPT? Overworked and stressed, seeking ease. Why are people making AI art? No time or desire to take up a hobby involving risk of failure when already stressed.

You know, I'm getting pretty fucking sick of these freaks hitting the "Destabilize Economy" button every 15 seconds because they've found a loophole that lets them gamble on the markets like a shitcoin

us government went from telling miners “learn to code” to telling coders “learn to mine” in less than ten years

being able to see so much art lovingly made by hand, endlessly, daily, has got to be one of the biggest boons of the digital age and one we take for granted. think of all the accumulated labor, love, hardship, etc. we are treated to in the form of illustration, writing, craft. for free, always.

Going on Twitter after not being on there for a while feels like entering a shadow world where shadow people interact with the real world in unseen ways.

Just a reminder: The real domestic terror is right-wingers engaged in networked violence against protesters not those protesting the billionaire fascist engaged in state capture and destruction of democracy.

TECH EXEC IN 2005: We believe the world is a better place when people are able to communicate online THAT SAME TECH EXEC IN 2025: The greatest existential threat to humanity is the ability for women to talk back to me

It doesn't make sense to bomb one of the poorest nations on Earth if you're one of the richest nations. It's barbaric and it's never been a show of strength. It's the sign of an insecure world power that's overreaching and collapsing under the weight of its own contradictions.

The Number You Have Reached Has Been Disconnected

Don't EVER tell a man to be a good person or he'll join a death cult and campaign for your extinction

Institutions must learn: there's no appeasing fascists. Columbia humiliated itself, broke the law, brutalized students/faculty, and destroyed the concept of truth. It was targeted not in spite of that, but because of it. If you lack integrity and show weakness, you'll be crushed.

A lot of people who’ve posted that “I don’t know how to explain that you should care about other people” quote need to know that they should care about other people. I want my tax dollars to go to paying for insulin for the most vile MAGA asshole you ever heard of; that’s part of “everyone”.

“Wait we are still going to have to work in socialism” girl there is 8 billion people on this planet and we need to stop climate change

Kleptocracy

we don't need a butlerian jihad. the computers aren't this way ontologically. it's the real people making them evil who are the problem

Pedocons, every time. The Republican platform is simple: they want to sexually abuse children. And they want you to pay for it.

There is no ethical doomscrolling under capitalism

There's a reason the far right don't want anyone to have media literacy because then they'd have to accept that most of their favorite fiction is anti-imperial or anti-fascist

the democrats 'could' do this or 'should' do that but the democrats 'would' push you into farm machinery for a long weekend

Hey guys meta announced a new policy where they send a killer to get you so be sure to go to settings>my account > killer> disable killer to turn that off

Once capitalism achieved global domination, it began to have less need for the capacity of the nation state. Looting it while also weakening it is a two for one deal for the Musks of the world. Billionaires have become global citizens of an emergent and powerful nation that has no fixed home or name

Musk has 12 kids with 4 different mothers (one who he wasn’t in a relationship with at all), and doesn’t pay his child support. Grimes has specifically BEGGED him not to parade their kid in public like this. Just trashy behavior.

for pity’s sake, I am BEGGING university leaders to stop framing this issue in terms of what this will cost the university. people dont care! EXPLAIN WHAT THIS WILL COST THE PUBLIC: closed hospitals and clinics, skipped treatments, loss of access to experimental drugs, unemployment, recession

I don't want to live in a meritocracy. I want to live in the world where you'll be ok even if you don't have an iota of talent in your body.

like what is anyone supposed to do with this when you open any app and see this shit immediately

Under fascism, no one is safe. Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc. Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations. Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

You know who else says they "built the modern world"? White supremacists. They say it all the time. Hell, they're the only people I've ever heard say it and I don't know Shedletsky enough to know whether this is even a break from that.

For so many reasons. (Reposting with alt text.)

i still can't believe it's called doge. this is like if the nazis called the wehrmacht "Der Fartenboys"

Dear white people on Bluesky, You should not be posting any original content during Black History Month. You’re just colonizing the space and erasing Black voices. Also, boosting Black users is performative if you aren’t changing their material conditions by giving them money.

if all your personal information isn't stolen once a month are you even participating in digital capitalism

not trying to minimize the harms being done but please believe the country supports trans kids your enemies are made of paper

The people who think they are good at everything because they are good at coding are also bad at coding.

A Nazi billionaire is drilling directly into Fort Knox in broad daylight and we’re just watching it happen.

ICE loves panic. Stop helping ICE. bit.ly/nj_kyr

Remember that every day you can participate in small acts of resistance against the Trump administration, such as liking and reposting my posts

I really hope at some point the rightwing victimhood thing rings hollow because we’re at the point now where they have the Supreme Court, 99.9% of billionaires, the house, the senate, the presidency, and they’re going “you know who is oppressing us now? The deaf”

Radiohead lied to us. Computer not OK. Computer not OK at all.

Gamers of Bluesky, is #Mouthwashing a #Metroidvania ?
