One of the ways you can tell America is stronger than ever is that it’s almost Christmas and all anyone is talking about is a heavily redacted set of documents about sex monsters

Labour Together are a wrecker outfit more damaging to Labour than militant was and their legacy, left unchecked, will be the wholesale destruction of Labour as an electoral force for years

I'm sure there are a lot of people who don't "know" anything actionable. I am equally sure that most of those people know precisely what not to ask and what not to try to find out. Who understand clearly the boundaries of the ignorance they are expected to maintain in order to remain employable.

You can tell, by how many vantablack rectangles there are, that there are people right now whose stories won't be believed for another quarter century. The purpose of a machine is what it does, and it is so very obviously a machine for enabling wealthy and powerful child abusers.

Each vantablack rectangle in the released Epstein files is a current customer of whoever took up that role since his death, someone actively building and maintaining that system for a new generation.

The system that created Epstein, protected him, and let him thrive for decades, still exists. His market of powerful monsters still exists, and they're still being protected. There is definitely, right now, someone serving the same role he did, being protected the same way by the same people.

Incredible words from real boxer Anthony Joshua after he knocked Jake Paul the fuck out lol

People are like "oh so you're saying you want there to be no food huh" like my brother in Christ they're draining the Colorado River to grow alfalfa to feed to racehorses in Saudi Arabia youtu.be/owieQnPYfT8?...

incredibly tired of people waving vaguely at the threat of farage tomorrow to explain why better things aren't possible today

This makes more sense once you realise that things like “talking openly about what the British state is, what it has done and what it’s doing now” really is perceived as a genuinely menacing threat, because any transparency about that would be very, very bad news for a lot of very important people.

What do I do??? We have barely any food, no heat and internet and phone is due soon. If I’m cut off from those I cannot come online and get help which will end in my kids and I living in my car MY CAR!!!!! I have been begging for over a week. Please boost we need more eyes. We need help asap!

The right/liberal transphobe alliance is engaged in a full bore "fuck you" drive to get violence against trans people encoded as normal and expected as quickly as possible, and this could only have been made possible thanks to the united front of the British press and their political lapdogs.

I notice that stuff about “they try to minimise civilian casualties” and “how dare you imply they would deliberately bomb a hospital” is largely silent now, in favour of politician and newspapers screaming the most serious accusations they can think up. The most inbred propaganda war I can recall.

💥 Seventy thousand women have now signed our letter. Seventy thousand women saying clearly that exclusion is not in our name and that trans people deserve dignity, safety and belonging. 🙏 Sign and share: notinourname.org.uk #NotInOurName #Love #Inclusion #WomenUnite

It is simply unacceptable for anyone to endorse violence, I tell military personnel at the Cyprus airbase where America has flown in a gajillion tons of cutting edge weaponry for use on undesirable civilians for over two years. Of course, I can’t talk about what you’re all doing here, but it’s great

Page 31: The call to globalise the intifada has effectively endorsed violence etc etc wargle blah blah. Do you see how it is always, every day, the human centipede of horrendous wackos demanding harder crackdowns on you, and less and less accountability and scrutiny upon themselves?

The new Head of the equality and human rights commission in the UK was a donor in Alison Bailey vs Stonewall; a frivolous case about how Alison being a knobhead caused Alison lose work after stonewall said its best not to work with knobheads. (Heavily summarised) 🫠

THIS IS REALLY URGENT NOW . NO GROCERIES, NO HEAT AND PHONE AND INTERNET DUE IN A FEW DAYS WHICH I WILL BE CUT OFF FROM HELP AND MY DISABLED CHILDS THERAPISTS AND HELP IF THAT HAPPENS PLEASE HELP PLEASE IM BEGGING SO WE DONT LOSE IMPORTANT THINGS WHICH WITHOUT HELP WILL BE OUR HOME END OF THE MONTH!

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

the way to defeat fascists is with solidarity, not by sacrificing your potential coalition against them slice by slice, precisely as they want you to.

Once again a reminder: We can have trans rights, bodily autonomy, gender nonconformity, and freedom of expression, or we can have none of these things. There’s no third option.

reshare if you agree wall adapters with a single USB C port have a surface area differential ratio that looks weird

With £1,000,000 now spent Allison Bailey loses again.

If the state is going to demand that we produce our papers to access the services we pay for, the bare minimum demand is "Give us our papers for free". They shouldn't demand this level of ID anyway but charging us for the privilege on top is just more evidence this whole country is built on scams.

In conclusion and getting back on topic, anyone feigning “concern” about gender-affirming care for trans kids is a fucking lying hunk of feces

Sorry to always repeat this, but it’s important: my trans kid saw multiple specialists +had therapy for over a year before receiving any gender-affirming care. My short cis child had hormones/puberty blockers aggressively pushed on him by drs starting at age 5 bc they were concerned about his height

Again, the secret ingredient was crime.

No need to relitigate the whole thing, but he also went to the papers with an absolutely risible crock of shit that they horked up into a terrifying national scandal on his behalf, because of their shared interests. If you still want to believe these were noble, then here, have a biscuit. Good dog.

liberal columnists: everyone despises starmer and nobody really knows why left/centre/right: here is a litany of reasons, with citation, as to why i hate that fucking guy liberal columnists: it's inexplicable. he's a decent guy, a human rights lawyer fgs, jus trying to fix 14 years of tory mess

This is to say that the usage of any of these models for any purpose is unethical from the start If any of these companies paid to use all the images they trained their algorithms on they'd be bankrupt thousands of times over The scale needed for function is 100% unsustainable without theft

Everyone who matters is now 100% committed to lying about what has happened until everyone implicated in it is retired or dead. And that’s going to be a long time, because every new escalation in lying and crackdowns is going to incriminate a whole new swathe of important people, for years to come.

CEO's ruin everything with get rich quick schemes, hopping on the "hot new trend" regardless of any harm it does No big corporation is your friend, it doesn't matter how much you like what they've made already they'll see your goodwill as a resource to be spent screwing you over for more profit

What's doubly funny about the Larian thing is that even a basic awareness of social media would tell you that this reaction was inevitable but the CEO clearly only listens to other CEOs who love the infinite plagiarism device.

PLEASE BOOST MY CROWDFUNDING! I know a lot of people cannot afford to help especially during Christmas but some can and all it takes is those people seeing my post. So please boost! It’s free and it can save my family from suffering.

Yes, if liberalism cannot metabolise “police shouldn’t shoot civilians for minding their own business” without perceiving that as a Russian sabotage op to undermine their authority, then I would say this is very much the bedtime liberalism has made for itself.

I try to focus on posting about art and comics and not my complaints about the state of everything but GOOD GRIEF

Anyway sorry if you’re a Larian dev and have to deal with your CEO publicly saying you’re cool with AI use, I’d be losing my damn mind

Everyone is more or less okay with it” dude you make people emigrate to work there because you don’t do remote work, they risk having to change countries if they disagree with it

This is very true, but also worth noting, TERFs are enablers of fascism, and just as worth standing up to.

From a professional comms perspective, I'd say a good start for Labour combatting far right rhetoric would be to stop repeating it, saying they "understand it" or including its stock tropes in official documents pretty much any time they talk about migration. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Regardless of how it’s used, a company has to give someone like Sam Altman money to use their AI bullshit so at best you’re just bankrolling the world getting worse

It's a very, very common act of right-wing deceit to accuse a quote of being selectively edited, taken out of context or otherwise "misrepresented," but to then fail to provide the context or the quote in its original form.
