None of you in queer adjacent, leftist discords dare give them the scan of your ID or your face so you can view "mature content"; doing so would be extremely fucking stupid and endanger you and everyone else on the server.

really fills me with despair to know how many people use chatgpt for research, since every time I ask it for more info on something I have knowledge on it gets it wrong. this is the wikipedia they warned us about citing in school, and half of everything we watch from now on will be based on it

Just a reminder that playing around with AI as a joke is just as environmentally harmful as playing around with AI for any other reason.

it's very hard to reconcile institutionalist liberalism with the utter failure of so many institutions to stand up for the principles on which they were founded. you can get sent to El Salvador for not having your drivers license in your pocket but you can't get a parking ticket in Bay Ridge.

Since genAI is just predictive text generation that doesn't actually know anything, asking it leads to 2 outcomes: 1. You can't tell if what it's saying is correct, so you have no reason to trust it. 2. You know enough about the subject to tell if the answer is correct, so asking it is pointless.

Disabled people can be ableist This is called lateral ableism, which is due to a combination of factors: - internalized ableism - mainstream media & entertainment - thinking they are “better” than certain groups of disabled people if their disability lets them contribute more towards capitalism

Gaslighting in the quotes, as per usual. Case in point: Them folks argued with disabled people for MONTHS about the bare minimum of masking at protests. Which you should do because of state surveillance anyway. I won’t let y’all forget.

Fun fact: before pasteurization became widespread (1920s in the US), milk was a regular carrier of tuberculosis, diphtheria, and typhoid. Before FDA food inspection standards, inferior milk was regularly adulterated with chalk, lead, alum, plaster, and even arsenic to improve its color and texture.

Shit like this is a big reason I roll my eyes at endless messaging debates — Republicans are killing independent media and building their own alternative reality ecosystem with little response from liberal funders or Democratic leadership

I’ve seen this story pass back-and-forth about two or three times but never commented on it and honestly, it’s wild to me that they just admit that this has always never been a thing. We’ve always known the whole thing is a spectacled fraud but damn.

I think it's getting lost that Trump is currently very much in the process of defying the Supreme Court, which directed the administration to "facilitate" Abrego Garcia's return. This is not some theoretical showdown that will happen later. It's upon us right now.

The attempts to eliminate anything resembling public health and increasing claims by companies that their personalized tech and ai will make you healthy are part of the same fascist project.

The key chart right now: Usually US economic pain is cushioned by falling bond yields and a strengthening dollar, which mean lower interest rates and more spending power for consumers. This time we’re seeing the opposite, meaning the pain will be amplified.

i think people are missing the forest for the trees with this one. RFK Jr wants complete centralized knowledge of every American's health in order to exact control on what medications are allowed and in order to fabricate "evidence" for each and all of his nonsense theories.

When I left the Washington Post in 2023, my colleagues and I were worried AI would hoover up our work and enable "zombies" to churn out stories based on our reporting and writing styles. Today WaPo announced a partnership with OpenAI. And here it is: Zombie Gillian Brockell. I DID NOT WRITE THIS.

I wrote something about how we're seeing the rise of the online "alpha male." This is someone who speaks in clipped imperatives, squeezes into tight suits, and performs for our feed. They present a vision of masculinity shaped by politics, tech, and 100 years of cultural history 🧵

I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

Hey, you know what’d be a big help? If the media would stop covering trans sports participation like it’s a new idea with no existing evidence, so we have to discuss in in terms of what various people THINK will happen. But we don’t, because there is plenty of evidence, scientific and anecdotal.
