@alicefraser.bsky.social I have to say, I absolutely adore your dad. The fact that he tied everything back to fundamental kindness as the core of how we need to address AI usage is a simplicity that so many don't think to say.

I read the “SAVE Act” (the GOP’s new voter suppression bill) so you don’t have to. This is my one page summary. Jesus it’s bad. 1/

TRIGGER WARNING, because here is a US Marshal from Trump‘s Gestapo Force in Memphis kicking a puppy today in the Whitehaven neighborhood and breaking its rib. They were serving a warrant and I guess BIG MAN got scared of the schnauzer. (I didn’t take the video, the dog’s person did)

@jackiekashian.bsky.social I thought you would appreciate this.

@alicefraser.bsky.social for the AI and the Creative Professional podcast, I would love to hear a discussion about whether the training itself is a copyright violation, not the output. I think that the fact creators didn't consent to the use for training has to be some kind of violation.

@mattcameron.bsky.social @seriouspod.bsky.social thought you would appreciate it.

@seriouspod.bsky.social listened to the 2nd episode about the Van Buren ruling. I did feel Jenessa switched back and forth how she was explaining things a bit contributing to your confusion.

@mattcameron.bsky.social got a good footnote for you.

“It was not unanimous. I was muted and not allowed to speak.” 🤔

“No, WE didn’t forget the mother in this situation. YOU did. You voted for this… it was ok until it happened to YOU.” #ForcedBirthNation

Trump says it’s “probably illegal” for seth meyers to be anti-Trump (Hard to imagine a better endorsement of Seth’s show)

Kristi Noem blasts “foreigners” for dangerous driving. According to the Rapid City Journal, that state’s court records show Noem had 20 speeding tickets dating back to 1989, alongside other violations, including failure to stop at an intersection and invalid license plates.

@techconnectify.bsky.social your beloved Menards is pulling some stuff.

@mattcameron.bsky.social footnote alert.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

@mattcameron.bsky.social @openargs.bsky.social Holy shit. I am sure you have already been sent this a hundred times but seeing someone shit directly onto their own career is amazing.

@mattcameron.bsky.social something amusing I thought might give you a moment of respite.

@openargs.bsky.social this is something that I think is worth a brief mention at least in the next podcast.

The port of Seattle right now. It's completely empty with no new ships coming in. We're going to have disruptions to access of basic goods unlike anything we have ever experienced in our lifetimes.

The soundtrack for the first third of 2025 is just a mechanical voice intoning "TERRAIN. PULL UP. TERRAIN. PULL UP. TERRAIN. PULL UP." over and over and over again.

I was recently asked if I needed to update anything from this triage list I proposed two weeks after the election for how to best protect non-citizens through what we knew was coming. Honestly, not really. It's all been pretty much as expected, if a little faster. A few notes though:

Octavia Butler was a sage. The quote below is from Parable of the Talents. It will remind you of our current situation. Please read 👇

Credit where credit is due these MAGA fellas upheld their end of the bargain after losing the bet. We miss the days where we all got along before this divisive, selfish con man came along 💔 #trumpsucks youtu.be/Tl4ggwyWEMI

First they came for the Palestinian protestor and I said “hey you Nazi fucks, you’re being Nazis, everyone else we need to shut these motherfuckers down RIGHT now” because I actually paid attention to the poem
