OpenAI designed the affirming tone of ChatGPT to goose engagement because their business model depends on it. Blanket affirmation and encouragement is how we get people turning to ChatGPT as a therapist AND how we get suicide instructions, deepening delusions, and this shit. It's the business model.

Breaking news: roumd

that whole 'this country isn't ready for a woman president' line is really upsetting because it shows exactly how neoliberalism works, redirecting blame from issues of policy (or lack thereof) onto a flattened, vague type of sexism in a way that ultimately doesn't even challenge sexism!

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo

i went on to try and get an assessment for adhd when i was in highschool and this quack psych told me i couldnt have adhd bc i was too smart and my issues in school were because of my terrible sleep schedule. but my terrible sleep schedule was because of adhd 😭

the world as we currently know it is ending and there will be a final confrontation eventually. climate change will increase migration and disasters will throw more and more people even in america into abject poverty. the plan is to let us all die.

Ok guys back to communism. Libbing out was fun but let’s stay focused

Similar to the Nazi group chat semi-apology responses, I think it is remarkable that the “Groyper” war is being framed pretty exclusively in terms of antisemitism, while the racism is unremarkable for them.

today’s information came out piecemeal, and people should be able to share their own situations on their own time, but I could share this much ^ as it is pretty cut and dry on the facts. Teen Vogue also no longer has any trans staffers as of today.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

i shouldve been born during the era of fully automated luxury gay space communism get me out of here

the other 1% is people not knowing the difference between something being harmful and something being annoying

my friend Grace is the woman who stood up to the guy in the Nazi SS uniform in those viral videos youve probably seen- he broke her nose with a beer stein - please share & donate and give her a hand with medical expenses, recovery and potential expenses gofund.me/72cb1a415

It’s not that people shouldn’t be nice or generous, only that these are not serious *political* proposals. Ultimately the way people are is heavily (if not completely) determined by the organization of society anyway, so we should start there.

I find statements like “what if everybody chose to be nice” or “it’s all because of greed!” thoroughly unmoving and naïve. Blaming our problems on the way individuals are (unlikely to change) rather than how society’s arranged (which we collectively have complete control over) is all sound and fury.

i think like 99% of recycled discourse comes down to tangible and real material splinters in social movements being reduced down to pure thought experiments detached from both the reality of history and the material conditions of the present. a simulacra of ideological struggle

and also, as always, historicization & building the future desired > abstract taxonomy

i think this can be squared when people better understand labels as imperfectly communicative: descriptive of desire and embodiment sexuality/gender subculture and themselves always contested and never static

all else aside why the fuck would i say "first cousin once removed" when i can just say that's my aunt lol. there are very few times when all that info is relevant

germany allows for no gender marker or an x as gender marker and I made an active choice to not do this because this effectively creates a list of trans people for the government. no gender marker for anyone please.

hundreds of thousands of people will try to kill you for the radical belief of "you should be able to eat well, get creative with your body, and enjoy life"

i think its good that bluesky is boring and you dont want to scroll through it too much because you're not supposed to waste your day away scrolling on social media when you could be using the computer to play & draw & learn before the corporations destroy the rest of the internet. tick tock

Even pre-stroke, this was the Fetterman problem. It's the Chapo Traphouse problem. And it's also widely an establishment media problem. These are elites who think the Working Man is a white Nazi and they believe the Democratic party can only be saved by going Nazi.

There is a genre of White Dude In Progressive Politics that makes his whole brand about how he "gets" the white dudes that Dems simply cannot reach. The problem with these guys is, the Dems don't reach those dudes because they are racist reactionaries
