I'll be sitting here waiting for the follow through. Because that's the only way the sign goes hard.

the fecklessness of establishment Dems comes from the fact that they agree with much of what Trump is doing. they want aggressive immigration enforcement. they want to blow shit up in Iran. for them, Trump is a sin eater who's brashly doing what they've been trying to do politely for a generation

America’s most progressive media is still right wing. The years long campaign of platforming “never Trump“ Republicans did exactly as intended and remade the Democratic Party into the bush era Republican party 2.0

Love that this is nearly 7 years old and is just as spot on as ever

Hi so you already should not have been using ChatGPT because of the many social and environmental ills AI is causing, but now its parent company is part of a war machine and you need to absolutely delete your account (and def cancel a subscription) to not be complicit in killing innocent people

friends don't let friends ?si=

Holy shit I was right and I don't like that I was right. This is really not good at all. They wanted to let fully autonomous drones use their AI here. Oh my god that's uhhh. Hm.

so as it turns out AI has ruined preservation too because guess what all of those servers need that's unaffordable now that's right, storage!

cops ALWAYS lie.

load-bearing @xkcd.com

I missed this coverage by the Daily News about @mayor.nyc.gov broken public library budget promises. www.nydailynews.com/2026/02/19/b...

There you go. An overt technofascist Trump ally will now own CBS, CNN, HBO, Paramount, Warner Brothers, Discovery, and a big chunk of TikTok

ONE SSSSSSSTEP BEYOND

We operate concentration camps let's just be real

this is extremely fucking important, esp with what just happened in kansas. they are trying to criminalize every aspect of our existence. i try not to be alarmist about things but this is where we are and it is BAD bad

Stop following and boosting the Tennessee Holler, it's just Blue Resister trash pushing unvetted clickbait. There are plenty of genuine, ethical journalists you can follow to get actual news. You don't have to drink the too-sweet water from the lead pipes!!

Heads up folks: @thetnholler.bsky.social posted an AI-generated video this morning that was a deepfake of the captain of the U.S. women’s hockey team, and they seem to be promoting it as if it’s a real video. So watch out for that and don’t spread fakes.

Spoke with a friend a few months ago who asked how using ChatGPT to write your vows is any different from hiring a speech writer, to which I replied, "If your wife finds out you used ChatGPT to write your vows she's actually legally allowed to kill you and collect your life insurance"

New boil water alert for Uptown just dropped. Oh and the SWBNO website won't load. Here is the email from NOLA Ready. #NOLA

We were always going to end up here with these allegations about Trump sexually assaulting a minor. First because he's sexually assaulted others and admitted to it. Second because nothing else really makes sense re: the administration's unwillingness to release the Epstein files.

This is it right here. The whole game. They do not understand that homework is to help understand concepts and ideas, to put them into practice, to demonstrate knowledge. This clown doesn't want people to know anything. These people don't want you to know things so they can control you.

"We are dealing now with an allegation that the president of the US raped and sexually assaulted a child and is now using his DOJ to try to cover that up." If you want to understand latest Epstein revelations, @leahlitman.bsky.social explains them clearly on our pod: newrepublic.com/article/2070...

I think one of the things that every technologist needs to ask themselves is "What would the worst person on earth do with this thing I'm building given enough money to take it over". Often people are optimistic about the best uses and lack pessimism for the worst. (why I have a job in security)

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

Him being able to wait til the end of the academic year is crazy because if I did some fireable stuff I’d have to pack my shit it up and vacate the premises within 15 minutes while being followed by security

More like PLANTner

i just wanna say that this wretched man’s entire political career has played out in my backyard, and not only should nobody take his idea of “normal” seriously, but no one should be considering him as a serious candidate for president the only reason the recall failed is bc the other guy was a nazi

The thing about former Prince Andrew is that he lost his protector. Our Epstein conspirators have not lost theirs.

Whoa-ohh, we're halfway there: "This App Warns You if Someone Is Wearing Smart Glasses Nearby" www.404media.co/this-app-war... bsky.app/profile/wolv...

NYC public libraries are some of the last places in the city where you can use the bathroom without purchasing anything. Again, we need city government to stop underfunding the libraries. actionnetwork.org/letters/city...

OpenAI is a menace. Two recent stories make that clearer than ever. One day you have Sam Altman denigrating humanity to defend AI. The next, WSJ reveals OpenAI could have alerted Canadian police of a potential mass shooter, but refused pressure from employees. That person went on to kill 8 people.

Did you know? 💭 83% of Black teens play games, but only 2% of creators are Black. We aim to address disparities like this. Learn more about how we approach bridging these gaps in our 2025 Game Devs of Color Impact Report: www.gamedevsofcolor.org/impact-report

knowing that nobody at the BAFTAs spoke to Delroy or Michael, that apparently there was a 'sorry if you were offended' apology, and the fact that the BBC took time to edit "free palestine" and not the slurs has made an already ugly no win situation much worse

Lately I'm regretting that we didn't talk about space data centers in A City on Mars, but tbh the idea just seemed so transparently silly. Now Musk and apparently the CNA (www.reuters.com/science/chin...) are talking about it.

The biggest issue is that, contrary to what many people who really should know better say, space is a bad place to vent heat. It is very hard to vent heat in near-vacuum. You may have heard that space is cold but "cold" is a very counterintuitive idea in an environment without much matter.

I know high ed as a whole has decided that equity is our or whatever but this AI shit is absolutely an equity issue. On multiple fronts. 1. Students could lose access to different learning modalities that better suit their needs. 2. Who do you think is going bear the brunt of the suspicion ?

3. Who is going to experience the brunt of job contraction that results from no one knowing how to actually do their jobs bc they haven’t learned anything ? It’s all bad. I hate it. And honestly if you’re uncritically engaging in this shit as an educator or a scientist you are on my list.

Gunman shot dead in Mar-a-Lago was ‘fixated on Epstein files’ and avid Trump supporter, friends say.

I am currently doing an online L7/Masters-ish course officially titled AI and Data Science (that’s AI as in machine learning, not Obsequious Hallucinating Word Order Machine) and their official take on LLMs is Do Not Fucking Use An LLM Because You Will Not Actually Learn Anything

As a former special education student that was desperate to succeed on the merits, and deeply involved with young people who struggle themselves, this is mindblowingly bad. We’re also the group of students that are first accused of being indifferent, lazy, or hostile to education.

I'm going to need people to update how they shit-talk people who want stuff done. "Oh, they're mad that they're only getting 30% of what they want" really rings different when the 70% of shit we're not getting is "someone to shut down the concentration camps."

I just heard a story from a friend whose coworker was taken by ICE: They called the restaurant to make sure was working and then grabbed him on the way home. Do not give strangers information on your workers for any reason, EVER. Also Ice is operational in Kentucky now. I'm glad I got whistles.

damn that's crazy

Bush was the Kaiser Wilhelm II of this entire thing. Evil in his own right yet ultimately a clumsy failure, but proof of concept of a whole lotta stuff for the worst people alive.

People laugh at MISSION ACCOMPLISHED but I really think that was when authoritarians learned that they can just say an operation is over and then major media will be like "Well that's that!" and move on. Which is why we still have daily kidnappings in LA & Minnesota & everywhere else they've been.

"AI has long been a part of gaming" Twain and statistics doesn't cover the depth of damned lie that this damned lie of a statement is.
