Guten Morgen! "Hätte nicht ein:e Whistleblower:in die Vorgänge öffentlich gemacht, würden die Klägerinnen bis heute dem Irrtum aufsitzen, die Fachjury hätte sich gegen sie entschieden" ☝🏾In a world of Weimers be a whistleblower! #Solidarität

Schauen wir einfach weiter zu, wie eine Handvoll Milliardäre Stück für Stück unsere gesamte Medienlandschaft aufkauft und neue Propaganda-Blätter kreiert, mit Desinformation den ÖRR und die anderen Medien einschüchtert und zensiert, damit sie uns am Ende indoktrinieren, Faschisten zu wählen?

Truly dystopian.

Oh boy! What a headline... Ask yourself: "What am I being asked to believe?" "Who am I being told to blame?" Take a few seconds to imagine what the Daily Mail (And Telegraph, GB News and Express) WANT you to think is going on. Let's see what's ACTUALLY happening...🧵 1/21

Meanwhile, my little brother from another mother is so addicted to Gemini he lies to his parents, neglects all of his chores and duties and health and is almost completely socially isolated. It's time to fucking restrict access to chatbots.

Thank fuck! This was disgusting!

"You just wanted to steal, so you stole. You wanted to take things without permission, so you did. It’s wrong. It’s so enragingly wrong." This is so, so good. Like a cleansing fire.

Omg I just got slapped in the face with nostalgia!

So finally in the 21st century after a debate of more than 25 years we decided to abolish feudalism. Or at least the most visible part of it. 👇

Nevertheless, she persisted!

Truly a perfect news alert

There's also the fact that Rowling has been fairly explicit that the money she earns through Harry Potter she's putting into anti-trans lobbying efforts. There's a difference, IMHO, between an artist with a shitty private life, and an artist using their money to fund regressive social change.

What exactly is the Pentagon paying these AI companies to do to us? www.npr.org/2026/03/08/n...

oh for fuck's sake!

Als die Epstein-Files veröffentlicht wurden, dachte ich, wie gut, dass endlich Täter zur Rechenschaft gezogen werden und sich Täter und ihre Unterstützer endlich fürchten müssen. Aber es fühlt sich gerade ganz anders an. Männer wissen jetzt, womit sie davon kommen. Selbst, wenn es öffentlich wird.

“Even masks are becoming difficult to find. This is a huge mistake. I ask those who have the ability, especially foreign media, to reflect on this situation. What are people supposed to do under these conditions? This is truly a crime against humanity.”

yay the new firefox update with the block all AI integrations is here!

Message to men: you can date/marry way, way above your league if you will just fucking learn to cook and do some laundry, please stop hitting yourself in the face with hammers or "optimising" things and try vacuumcleanermaxxing instead...

Back home. It's so silent.

Nicht Mann zu sein, bedeutet in dieser Welt, dass vom Smartphone bis zum Sicherheitsgurt kein Gegenstand an deinen Körper angepasst ist, Medikamente nicht für deinen Körper getestet wurden, du für einen Teil deiner Arbeit kein und den anderen weniger Geld bekommst und am Ende ja nur "überreagierst".

Watched Murder in the Embassy on the plane, because Egypt, and it's safe to say: do not make the same mistake. It was AWFUL. Like, BAD bad.

The environmental damage, next to the utter senselessness of this war, is unbelievable. This is truly inhumane. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Alle Rolltreppen in Berlin scheinen nicht zu funktionieren. Weder im Flughafen noch am Hbf. 😩 Selbst schuld, dass ich so viel Gepäck dabei habe, but still.

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

Good good

Just pulled up this classic made for me by Hugh D'Andrade from a decade or so ago. From not so long after Google abandoned its "don't be evil" motto so it could be unrelentingly evil.

Feeling strangely validated for never having liked TC.

I'm gonna need a holiday from this holiday.

These are the 4 things AI can do well: •Clean up your email inbox (badly) •Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party •Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself •Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday You can see why we need to base our economy around it

National Theatre at Home brings back "Take Your Seats," with Ncuti Gatwa's 'The Importance of Being Earnest' streaming free on YouTube.

AI and instant gratification are inextricably linked. I see it every day here how it messes with everyone, but especially students. There are almost no restrictions on AI here in Egypt and the deskilling it caused is terrifying. Mental breakdowns, depression & rage included when they can't use it.

the one who loved horses, the one who was a great goalkeeper, the one who kept a diary every day, the one who held her sister's hand when they walked to school, the one who read Harry Potter in English, the one who collected old coins, the one who drew rainbows for her grandmother ...

amichai.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

I love how so many friends are thinking of me when they see the ads for Young Sherlock :D

OpenAI is now used to kill people. Stop being lazy and start thinking and doing actual research again! If you want to know something, I PROMISE you will find it somewhere outside of an LLM. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The absolute insanity of all of this. The entire administation is beyond corrupt and evil. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks. They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors. Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption. Watch how they vote this week.

This is not just cursed, its monstrous. The digital resurrection of a historian who died in January of this year, all so Grammarly can get some more clicks and engagement from students and/or scholars and/or others. It feels so wrong on so many levels, these ghosts enslaved to AI forever

Fuck AI www.lvz.de/lokales/leip...

This makes me laugh because it's so true! www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...
