I CAST WHIMSY ON THE SKYLINE

Look, if not for Bluesky, you'd have no idea who Jeremy is. I think that settles any question of its relevance.

From the University of New Orleans, Bayou Magazine announces its first-ever online issue! Poetry, fiction—even a play!—all available now for you to enjoy! Honored to have worked with Bayou's editorial team on producing this landmark publication. 🤩 bayoumagazine.org/issue-80/

After watching a lot of Greg on HowToDrink I have started adding Angostura bitters to literally everything and I have not yet found a beer that is not improved with a dash or two.

Laughing at journalists who say if Bluesky was nicer to them there’d be more journalists here like…you don’t know your audience AT ALL. Trying to shame Bluesky into behaving the way you personally want is like trying to keep a cat off a counter. That cat is gonna be on the counter EVEN MORE now.

Email: "Exciting news: Zendesk Copilot usage now included in your plan!" Exciting news, Zendesk! I will be turning it off immediately! 🖕

I say this as someone who loves technology but hates the tech industry - why do we have to love technology? why do we have to give something like AI clemency for its errors? It's a product we are being sold, it should have to earn our money or attention.

i shouldn’t give this piece any more attention than it has already garnered but i feel like it is worth pointing out some flaws in the argument/unquestioned assumptions thread 1/

FFS, just got an email that Zendesk is now incorporating Copilot in our instance and there doesn't seem to be a way to disable it. When will the madness end?

You can completely uninstall/disable copilot on Windows. Your system and local search will run faster afterward. www.howtogeek.com/how-to-rip-o...

We did it, #nolasky

Got my @swordscomic.bsky.social comic today! Super excited, thanks for the bonuses!!

Over the past two weeks I've begun to realize that rich people only started funding chatbots once they could no longer email Jeffrey Epstein

it's a brand new day let's get to it people!

It serves the public good to know who our public employees are. If they are scared of their actions angering their employers (us) then they should get other jobs.

Okay troublemakers, punks, antifa supervillains, and anyone who just enjoys being a petty little shitbird while they fuck up the algorithm of a massive media corp. Here's your assignment for the weekend. Get on it and spread the word.

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I approve this message.

This is beyond pathetic, but what would you expect. On top of all of it...the $50 is in Trxxp Coin. Losers.

I think about this post a lot.

Interesting how all these "they shouldn't have been there!" folks were dead silent on January 6, 2021 when those people DEFINITELY shouldn't have been there. Oh, I guess the "right to protest" only applies to them.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

I didn't make this, but it needs a reposting.

Thank you, @trampolinepoetry.bsky.social, for publishing "Indistinguishable," a poem for @maudiemichelle.com. Maudie is an incredible poet—and an even cooler friend/sister/person-who-made-me-a-person! Please enjoy this story from the early days of our friendship. www.trampolinepoetry.com

Buy the physical comic book! I have lots left and stocktake is coming up! They gotta go! ko-fi.com/s/aa2e2ff0c9

Graphic design is my passion.

This must be weird news to see if you’re one of the literally hundreds or even thousands of university administrators who preemptively censored faculty, scrubbed websites, changed the names of centers, etc.

Congress passed the Taft-Hartley Act in 1947 (over Truman's veto) to make general strikes so incredibly difficult to organize that there hasn't been one since. That there is a general strike happening in a major US city on such short notice is nothing short of a miracle.

NVidia chief creep says resistance and scorn for AI have done a lot of harm. Good. Nice confirmation it's working. Keep it up. Although the main thing is this stuff is harmful crap so the mind and body tend to revolt against it automatically.

@icegov.bsky.social Hi. My wife left me. I'm broke and full of rage. How do I join ICE?

Don't fight them. They want us to fight them. They want to troll us. They came over here because they're sad they can't taunt us. Nothing will make them more angry than becoming the most blocked account on this site and hearing the wind whistle by as we consign them to invisibility.

Who here will notice that dems are doing the thing everyone demanded they do?

a poll on slop in everything?? you know what to do voteyesornoai.com

We need to be campaigning on hope right now, not on "Resign yourself to voting for 80% Hitler" god damn it.

lol

Maybe we should stop paying federal taxes altogether and make the IRS come get us all with a skeleton crew

Bandcamp has banned AI music. The company has released a statement which includes the following: "Music and audio that is generated wholly or in substantial part by AI is not permitted on Bandcamp." stereogum.com/2485199/band...

now we're fucking talking

The future of gaming is not on AI. It's on Linux. youtu.be/zkDjLWsMg1A?...

Dang

no

This is very very funny (also kinda mean). “Fascination with feces” lol www.reddit.com/r/ICEwatchMN...

Libby this is not how you help libraries or our communities are you kidding?! Stop trying to make it sound better than it is. Those lists already exist in there. Librarians already exist in their communities that can give better recs than anything this slop can. Ditch this crap. What a bad idea.

So the official Fox propaganda line is that Wine Moms are stronger, faster, and more organized than ICE? I mean, we all knew this, but it's good to see Fox News publicly admitting that the ICE boys are weak, dumb, and ineffective.
