It's not this platform. It's all of society that hates AI

Engagement KPIs have been responsible for infinite scroll UI traps, RecSys radicalization spirals, public shame brigades, and basically every modern ailment novel to the past decade. At some point, you have to recognize that the problem isn't any one technology, it's the metric.

Ah yes, trans women

shoutout to trans women who make totally unlistenable music

The government is full of pedophiles and the legacy media is complicit but on the plus side broad adoption of Linux on the desktop might have a fighting chance so today is kind of a wash.

You must disappoint your parents. If you don't, you'll never be free.

you know we used to have to do at least a little work to prove the connection between racism and transphobia

look if the president can fuck up hard enough to make socialism truly viable in america, and rock with me on this one, maybe we can apply this to culture, too. maybe if we get a singer-songwriter to drop a brick with empire state building velocity, harsh noise can become a viable pop genre

This is absolutely going to be used to 1) further suppress Palestinians desperately trying to raise money to survive and 2) punish any marginalised person who is pushing back against bigotry posted on here 🙄

The AI as God thing really separates the actual antitheists from the posers. I will assemble friends and kill that computer as a service to our dignity as a species.

les américains existent seulement pour rappeller aux européens que meme si c'est la merde ca pourrait etre pire

ok but to be honest if someone actually transitioned purely cause they felt like it was a trend they wanted to get in on that would be cool as hell? like yeah, use that bodily autonomy, fuck around because you feel like it

My favourite thing to do in the Hades games is not pay attention to the lore at all and have no idea who anyone is or what’s going on

disgustingly gorgeous new mag bay single, like come the fuck on they can't keep getting away with it what the hell full body frisson stank face good

Israel Agrees To Go Back To Killing Palestinians On Less Frequent Basis

just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok

i’ve no doubt this platform will eventually crash and burn or become completely unusable due to libertarian brain but for now i will hang out and talk about art that only 3 people like

Transhumanist as in

new scam going around where they hire you for a job but pay you less than the value your labor produced

wikipedia pages that explain common, well-known concepts are comedy gold and should be used proactively

i need everyone to get more communist

Microsoft is a genuinely fascinating company like Their products are the most used in practically every niche. All of them are ass. Most of their customers don't even realize they have other options. Their software powers essential infrastructure and can break on mandatory updates.

Antifa isn't an organisation - it doesn't have a formal structure or leadership - but that doesn't matter. They're constructing a basis for plucking inconvenient leftists from the street and from their homes; for trying, convicting, and executing them as terrorists.

mass shooters are the only cis men who know what it feels like to be misgendered

god what a fucking time to be 27 years old

🔴 IMAGES STREETPRESS : Une grenade lacrymogène tirée par des policiers aurait provoqué un début d'incendie sur un immeuble parisien ⬇️

Did you know it's legal to say "an Elbit arms manufacturing plant in Bristol has closed its doors after months of targeting from Palestine Action". But it'd ILLEGAL to follow that with "what incredible work from those heroes". That'd be an offence under the Terrorism Act of 2000. Don't say that!

Funnily enough, I sincerely believe many trans women stay closeted even to themselves because they mistake their own feelings of dysphoria with the reasonable unease someone should feel about being unreasonably privileged.

it makes me mad that riot has as good of a music department as they do. it's fucked up that pentakill goes as hard as it does. that should be illegal

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

Our message to the French government 👇

I haven’t been this excited for a bubble to burst since I was a toddler.

piracy is a morally correct choice in a world where prices increase in inverse relativity to job prospects. you deserve access to culture no matter what side of the poverty line you're on. buy a used video game console and jailbreak it, learn to torrent, install soulseek. art is for everyone

theyre going to somehow invent the worlds first vaccine that actually gives you autism

I know a lot of you have already heard or read about BDS Movement's call against Microsoft, and felt weird and bad about it all, but decided to move forward as normal because of some degree of ambiguity. "What service is Microsoft providing?" Here it is, clear as day. A direct line to death.

hold up im cooking

given now the UK requires age verification for minors to listen to "adult" music on streaming (lets be real, LGBT shit is included), how many countries outright ban western streaming services and how evil spotify is - if u can't access my music or can't afford it, my entire discography is here:

It's a bizarre and frankly alienating feeling realizing that if you know the basic fact that the murder rate has gone down significantly since 1990 you're in the ~90th+ percentile of fact-knowers

Depuis près de deux ans, Blast collabore avec Mohamed El Saife, journaliste à Gaza. Dans ce long format exceptionnel, il donne la parole à des habitants épuisés, décimés, traumatisés par des mois de bombardements, destructions, déplacements forcés auxquels s’ajoute une famine organisée meurtrière.

"Nobody listens to concerns over immigration" is just plainly nonsense, not only because it has dominated discussion my entire adult life, but because the more accurate version is "Nobody listens to the benefits of immigration". Anyone trying to make the case is shouted down. Evidence is discarded.

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.
