a few months ago I said "having generative AI handle absolutely anything with regards to healthcare is a nightmare and should be banned" and a bunch of people made fun of me and called me stupid. anyways,

Some good news.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

Every few weeks we gotta make posts like this”call your dem reps to tell them to not vote to allow Lord Killdude to shove people into a volcano” and then the dem reps go “we’ve made an amazing deal where Lord Killdude can have his volcano so long as he promises not to shove people into it”

I did the same. Do it. Now.

I honestly don’t get the value of this company. They hoover up energy and water. Their product constantly gets things wrong and, in extreme cases, coaches people into suicide. And it’s all built on what seems to be malicious and vast intellectual property theft. What does OpenAI offer the world?

A lot has been said about how Fox News melted so many boomer brains, but not as much about the insidious way the NYT is corroding the minds of our progressive elders. How their beloved paper of record is poisoning them against their anti-genocide children, making them doubt their trans grandkids.

Saying "it's my political belief that this sort of harrassment is right and good to engage in" isn't a magic spell - or at least, it shouldn't be.

I was told you couldn’t even do this if there was a pandemic killing millions

congrats to everyone for thinking this through before signing very big contracts to put it on every student’s device at the school or university you run

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

Why in the world is Michigan letting OpenAI build a data center in Saline Township? The environmental harms are bad enough, but it's also a murder machine! If we allow this project to go forward we are complicit.

OVER A MILLION USERS DISCUSS SUICIDE WITH CHATGPT EVERY *WEEK* what the fuck are we DOING here

Average SNAP benefit per person is less than $200. Elon has received over $38 billion of our tax payer dollars. But go on about soda Karen.

HAPPY FOUR SEASONS TOTAL LANDSCAPING DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

1. In a devastating decision for trans kids in Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Tennessee, the 6th Circuit has ruled students can bully trans kids by repeatedly misgendering them. Trans kids also are not allowed to return the favor to their bullies. Subscribe to support our journalism.

since chatgpt has coached another young person in a mental health crisis to their death, I am yet again tapping the sign

Transphobes are already targeting the biggest star in women's soccer and baselessly alleging she's a man because she's Black. This is what trans people warned would happen. Gender policing that becomes explicitly racial. www.outsports.com/2025/11/6/24...

And this is what they call “the ole Chappaquiddick Farewell” in the Kennedy family, dude couldn’t help it, it’s in his blood.

Speaking as a GAC provider: for years now, NYT has been a reliable spigot of medical misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation (true facts presented in a way that misleads). NYT has goaded the anti-trans political machine as much as any institution in our country. I will never forget it.

The nyt editors already have a biased angle in mind. They’re not seeking facts, they’re looking for quotes to fill in a predetermined narrative of bigotry. Every nyt story about us is intended to spread disinformation and foment discrimination. The leadership’s anti-trans animosity is deeply held

It’s almost like if people tell you that to win you have to turn your back on poor people, or Muslims, or trans people, or immigrants, you can just say, “no, that’s immoral, we’re not doing that,” and keep doing good old fashioned organizing and campaigning and things will be ok

There’s no reason ever again for any Democrat to suggest moderating on trans rights. There was never a moral reason but now there’s no political reason either. Somebody tell Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg. it’s joe-ver.

"Hope over tyranny. Hope over despair."

Do you want to laugh? Democrat Aftab Pureval has been re-elected as the Mayor of Cincinnati. His Republican opponent, Cory Bowman, is JD Vance’s half-brother. A landslide loss: 81.7% - 18.3%

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

From Evan: it's a huge night of hope for the trans community. The Republicans went all in on anti-trans ads in multiple races and so far there's no sign it got them anything. Perhaps the page can be turned on blaming us for Harris' loss last year.

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win

Earle-Sears ran what felt like 12 billion ads about how much she hated trans kids and I didn’t hear a single pundit say she should stick to real issues that affect real people.

People act like all conservatives are the same when the movement has a ton of diverse intellectual traditions. For example: Bryan Johnson who measures the size of his son’s erections for technofascist reasons Mike Johnson measures how often his son gets an erection for christofascist reasons

I’m a lifelong democrat. But if anyone tries to raise my taxes to pay for schools, libraries, or sidewalks, I will be forced to campaign with Republicans for the fifth consecutive election cycle. #a2council by Kathy Griswold

TIL that in 1920, former president William Howard Taft, the year before he became Chief Justice of SCOTUS, did a ruthless takedown of Henry Ford's "The International Jew" and its antecedent the Protocols of the Elders of Zion: babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu...

listen we may have lost our family business, made our kids miserable, had to live in a barn with goats and lost $50,000 to a local Russian slumlord, but at least we dont have to see gay people in public

In which a straight woman highlights a bunch of known anti trans activists and claims there's a divide in the queer community. It's pure propaganda and gaslighting.

“They were careless people … they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made."

Saw a man in a cow costume carrying three gallons of milk in Costco this morning.

I'm an 80-year-old lifelong Democrat and Ann Arbor resident. But if the new comp plan allows someone to construct a duplex in my neighborhood in 2045, my ghost will be forced haunt both units after voting for Donald Trump for the seventh time. #a2council

UM Regents Paul Brown and Jordan Acker are trying to get on ballot for re-election. They refused to hear reports from Faculty. Dismantled DEI at UM. Stopped gender-affirming care at UM Medicine. Expelled students who criticized Israeli actions in Gaza And yet, aft.org is considering endorsing them

When I chaired the Faculty Senate last year, Regent Jordan Acker, enraged that he couldn’t control faculty voice, doxxed me on social media. UM police installed security cameras on my home to protect me from his threats. Now Acker wants to be re-elected. @aft.org is considering an endorsement

The Jewish right discovering in real time that the Trumpist right, and the open bigotries it has unleashed upon the US body politic, is not in fact going to spare Jews, is quite a trip.

30 Oct 2025 -- WSJ op-ed by anti-trans biologist Colin Wright (Genspect-SEGM-Quillette) touts debunked survey showing young trans identification "collapsing" by only counting those NB-identified as "proving" that debunked "social contagion" theory was right. Really, guys? @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

1. This morning, a flurry of movement in federal rulemaking signals Trump's intent to ban transgender youth care nationwide. If these rules go into effect, the administration may be successful in doing so. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Just saw a white US Customs and Border Patrol SUV westbound on Forest at River in Ypsilanti.

Tampons and pads should be in all public restrooms - ESPECIALLY schools. Stock them like toilet paper. Scotland, New Zealand, even Kenya do it. But not the USA, where men (and even some women) are so aggressively sexist that they fight AGAINST period products in schools.

If Trump’s fascism is so bad, why aren’t the students protesting? We asked three right-wing oligarchs who bullied their alma maters into enforcing total bans on freedom of assembly on campus.
