so if i understand this correctly, gaines has made her career by publicly calling trans athletes predators and threats to women while completely failing to ever mention even once that her mentor/college swimming coach was sexually assaulting and harassing women on the team while she was there?

A chance today to (re)acquaint you all with the wonderful work of Gaston Goor – we have just added his 1953 illustrations for Ovid’s Les Amours at www.honesterotica.com/portfolios/5..., but while you’re there make sure you check out all the rest of this artist’s groundbreaking homoerotic work.

Big Tech is using the art, music and work of Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander people to train AI algorithms, with no respect for cultural protocols or its spiritual and historic significance. Support our campaign here: meaa.io/3IUYC0M #PayUp #StopAITheft @microsoft

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

I think people should realize here that Mark Kelly is a very savvy politician who doesn't really move from where his constituents are and is notoriously careful because he's a democrat from Arizona. The fact that he's doing this isn't just presidential ambition, it means his voters want it.

I have never typed into a prompt box and this is why, every time you have a little fun making a meme or trying to take the piss out of site owners your having a real harmful impact on others. GenAi needs massive data centres and they harm lives so keep that in mind when you play with this crap.

Reminder to ecommerce customers as we get into the meat of the holiday shipping season: once the post office scans in your order, it's no longer our fault if the package is lost/delayed. Scolding us for "not shipping" your package when the tracking shows it's been delayed in transit is incorrect!

“battery also needs to not get wet” - from a Seattle based company! I’m just imagining their engineers in design meetings, looking out the windows at the all day drizzle - “any other risks we’re missing here, guys?”

Any time corporate executives are in a room together and don't know they're being recorded, the transcript is like: "Christ, I hate our customers. We're agreed that we all hate our customers? Let's lie to the IRS, criminally. Did I mention the Holocaust never happened? Put more lead in our soda."

One of my first initiatives as mayor will be to make sure that City Hall moves in a better direction, toward a more responsive city government that delivers services to people and explains what we're doing and why. #thisisyourcity

it's happening dot gif

Folks forget that the ACA *was* the compromise position. It was never full on heal reform so much as health insurance reform, but it was what the political reality of the time permitted. That said, Medicare for all, and let the shareholders answer to God.

🔮 sex where you just touch each other and kiss and follow what feels good without worrying so much about structure is so goated beyond belief

i guess since we are talking about star wars i'll note that my opinions are sacrosanct* bc i wrote star wars books *THIS IS A JOKE DONT YELL AT ME

It is with sadness that we learned that Viola Fletcher, the oldest survivor of the Tulsa racist massacre, has died at the age of 111. Learn more about this event here: stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1038...

it's interesting that Seattle's got its own version of "who was president in 2020" now

Absolutely. Who doesn’t love being given sativa?

I'd like you who know me to imagine how reading this made me feel. And if you support this...person...I'm blocking you faster than you can say "Rumpelstiltskin".

One thing that stands out in the responses i got was that genAI takes away the very thing that makes making a game so fun. It's fun and worthwhile to do BECAUSE it is hard, because the contraints force creative thinking, and that is in that tension point beauty is found.

Spoke to a number of devs about how, in the face of CEOs claiming gen-AI is the future, their declaration of being genAI free is making waves.

WONDERFUL NEWS 🎉

this is all fun and games but you gotta go outside and breathe the fucking air to live, this shit ain't real, this is the fucking illusory realm, this is the realm of spectacle and unsuppressed urges man, this is 100% performance, none of this means jack shit, peel your fucking eyes away

My perfect boy 😭💔

the cool thing about approaching things with a child’s eyes is you get to go “hell yeah, this is awesome” without any baggage of the stuff about it that sucks and the hard work of adulthood is enjoying things you enjoy without over intellectualizing how stuff that sucks is “good, actually”

I didn't know it was possible for an agency to shoot itself in the foot like this, but it happened. My local agency, The WTA, has told the local universities, which make up half of its ridership, that it does not intend to continue giving free rides to their students, faculty, and staff. (1/3)

Spread this around. Make sure people know that this is going to happen and put pressure on WTA from across the transportation community to come to the negotiating table and allow the universities to have bus passes and to scrap the fare change. For more information, please visit savewta.org (3/3)

One of my favorite things is getting to tell friends who are new to NYC that the subway "stand clear of the closing doors please" voice is a trans woman named Bernie Wagenblast and she's amazing.

#SaveSpeech if you're Canadian, you may have heard about a handful of bills that have free speech and anti-surveillance orgs worried, so ive made a cheat sheet of info about what makes each one worrying! We need to block these bills! please contact your reps! oncanadaproject.ca/findyourrep

haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”

SWTheory’s dumb ass gave a bunch of people cover to be bigoted pieces of shit.

Wow this is bad.

Good art fashions you into a crude blade and stabs a guard

Good art busts inside your mind and leaves you discarded on the side of the road like a used condom

Bigger than this, I think people should be more skeptical of online leftism that says, "Actually, under capitalism I don't owe other people anything." Oh, your communal philosophy says you can be interpersonally vicious and steal from other people? How convenient!

I heard there was a Cohen song, And all the Christians got it wrong, But you don’t really get the meaning do ya? ‘Cause you see its about getting laid, It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith, But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”
