WTAF Google !?! Why are you giving licencing money to the queen of TERF island? This is a really shitty look, and will have serious consequences for trans people (continued financial support for anti-trans legislation). 🤬

A huge thank you to
@hagenblix.bsky.social
and Ingeborg Glimmer for writing "Why We Fear AI". They do an excellent job of explaining how AI is the turbo boost mode for capitalist extraction, which will ultimately fuck everybody up. I really hope Werner Herzog is available to read the audiobook.

If you need to complete an opinion survey/give a performance rating about another employee in the same organization that you work in* - you DEFINITELY need to get your workplace unionized ASAP *I think this might be quite common practice in higher ed institutions
