always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

A heavily redacted cartoon. My @smh cartoon.

If you’re canceling your Washington Post subscriptions today, 1) I don’t blame you, it’s a sad day for the Post, and 2) I must shamelessly recommend another (non-billionaire-owned) news source for you to subscribe to: zeteo.com/subscribe

Voting for the right people should be easier than it’s ever been. Is this candidate a perve? No vote. Sexist? No. Racist? No. Homophobic? No. Liar? No. Wealthy as fuck whilst suggesting the poor have too much? No. Favours companies over climate? No. Wants to profit your ill health? No. And yet…

Because I'm talking about measles. It is also A VERY VERY VERY CONTAGIOUS VIRUS. If someone is in a room and has measles and then leaves that room and you enter that room within TWO HOURS (depending on humidity) you can get measles. And people are contagious for four days before the rash appears.

I’ve spent the past 2 years debating the credibility of the Gaza Health Ministry’s numbers with Israel supporters. It turns out the Israeli military agrees with me, not them. My latest for Zeteo on how the media was also complicit in the genocide denial:

The files are so evil and terrible and they also confirm that the wealthiest men in the world are the biggest bunch of losers in the world. Every single one of them is a sentient fedora.

AI use is terrifying. This can't be the only person who got this far knowing nothing. Read/share this thread!

Tonight I watched Prime Minister Mark Carney take the actual Heated Rivalry Canada fleece from Hudson Williams, slip it on and say: “This is true soft power.”

Hi @repmoskowitz.bsky.social will you now apologize for this bill of yours and admit you got it wrong?

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

This isn’t just a fight for Gorton & Denton. It isn’t even just a fight between Greens and Reform. It’s an ideological fight between a millionaire-backed, cynical power grab Vs community organising, collective power and a much needed revitalisation of what democracy should be.

Femslash fans! We* need you! (*In case you're unfamiliar, The Rec Center is a weekly newsletter of fandom articles, fanart, and fic recs run by @elizabethminkel.bsky.social and @gavia.bsky.social. It has nothing to do with Fansplaining other than being made by our editor + frequent contributor. 😅)

Complex prehistoric tools found in China rewrite story of human evolution

this week i've blocked half-a-dozen users across platforms for posting (amazingly bad) "fic" and (historically inaccurate) "meta" produced by LLMs, as well as for posting about fun activities you can do with generative AI. hey guess what THERE IS NO ETHICAL USE. mute, unfollow, unsubscribe, GIRL BYE

for me it was the fact that the author is one of the main driving forces behind the global movement to kill my trans friends and erase their existence hope that helps

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

In the midst of all the horrors, a fire last week claimed my niece’s family’s home in St Paul, including their 3 cats and her mom’s prosthetic limb. Her dad is in the ICU with a brain bleed. It’s not safe for them to leave their temporary housing. Please help if you can. gofund.me/4481a1d9e

“Donald Trump probably won’t leave in 2028.” @mehdirhasan.bsky.social discusses how the UK can’t afford to be complacent given its historical tendency to follow trends in American politics, where democracy is currently under threat.

Imagine voters sitting there after the Beeb has gone, worrying about paying to see a GP and thinking about an EU orange or tomato tgat costs a fiver. While watching Nige suck up to Vance for a dogturd trade deal. Imagine the rage then.

I hope they never experience peace or a good night‘s sleep and they meet their Nuremberg moment soon.

My question is what took her so long. I expected this turd to flush itself down the Reform toilet ages ago

I am THRILLED to say that by the end of day 2 we have officially passed the thousand dollar mark!!!! We have now raised $1,217USD to help victims abducted by ICE! Let's make it $1500 by the end of tomorrow!!!

The extent to which UK and other European policy elites seem intellectually or psychologically unprepared for scenarios where the US is no longer able to function as a geopolitical actor is rather worrying

Jesus fuck, the courage.

Welcome to the WangXian Gotcha Against ICE Donate now to any of the organizations providing legal defense to ICE's victims in Minnesota (listed⬇️⬇️) and request whatever WangXian fan work prompt(s) you like from our volunteer artists writers & Podficers! forms.gle/am9zuDC8p4Ne...

It is a truth universally acknowledged that ICE are a bunch of goose-stepping cowardly little bitches.

A big issue with people who look at the US, and elsewhere, and say something along the lines of "it couldn't happen here" is that it very much can, and in some cases is, happening in the UK, especially with discrimination against marginalised groups. Escalation can always occur given circumstances.

I did a little experiment of one here. And uploaded my 2023 radiology reports. ChatGPT recommended waiting 3 months for another scan, with a 10-40% estimate of cancer. Not wrong, evidence-based. My doc, who’s been practicing for 30 years, saw scans & ordered an immediate biopsy. I had cancer.

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Never mind the Ofcom investigation, when's the police investigation into it being a child abuse image generator?
