Disabled people were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis. They coined the term “useless eaters”. They tested the gas chambers on us. They knew most people wouldn’t fight to save our lives. That’s why the President using the R slur is so dangerous. We’re not expendable

All of this happened in the time span of an anime opening

Everytime i see new ads for the upcoming avatar movie, im thibking about this

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay. See the problem?

We all agree that these "dubs" suck. But once again, that's not the core problem here. The quality will inevitably improve, though I personally doubt to the quality of a dub made by actual humans who care. The problem is that these exist AT ALL. They're an offense to art, and always will be.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

As someone who works in the tech industry--absolutely. They are testing the waters. These are top-down orders. The ONLY way to stop it is a visceral negative reaction. Write articles. Post your rage. Email. Post. @. All those things. Only you have the power to kill it.

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from. tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this. 🧵⬇️

The only immediate and TANGIBLE way of pushing back against this is to *cancel subscriptions*. If they have 90 shows and push out 10 AI dubs, they can start marketing “we have over 100+ shows!” It’s not about quality, but the scope of offering. *Your* subscription money is used in part to fund it.

Morale at paypros call centers is in the toilet right now. It’s not just normal Black Friday stress, they’re being pounded. Corporate is pressuring bosses to end the paypros call campaigns. Source familiar w/ internals at MC stressed that folks should stand their ground but be kind to agents (1)

KOSA will obliterate trans people's ability to have spaces and even communicate online. It MUST be stopped.

happy 9th anniversary FFXV!!!!! my beloved 🥹😭💕

Leave little Saruman alone.

The article is well worth a read; this information would never have come to light were it not for Steam's AI disclosure policy, and the game looks to be a rushed cash grab not involving Grasshopper studio. This is why CEOs dont like AI disclosures, they want to be able to discreetly serve slop

Please keep putting pressure on PayPal. Stories like this are becoming more and more common. Artists don’t deserve to lose their source of income over payment processors being puritanical/anti-small business.

If Mastercard says there are no restrictions and to contact your bank, I recommend telling them that your bank redirected you to Mastercard / your bank was of no help

I keep seeing people trying to play down the payment processor situation, saying it's only the extreme NSFW accounts getting sacked. Well. One of the cutest SFW furry artist got banned from PayPal. What more proof do y'all need that we need to keep fighting the good fight? Also go support Nakufin.

As always: the best way to protect kids online is to pass strong legislation that protects EVERYONE from Big Tech's surveillance capitalist business model & breaks their monopolies so that people can have social media and tech tools that serve community needs. Nothing in this package looks like that

Tell your lawmakers to oppose the Kids Online Safety Act- there are better ways to protect kids online without throwing other vulnerable people under the bus. www.stopkosa.com

This fucking sucks, if anyone is interested in yakuza 0 or getting into the series at all i really recommend getting the original version for cheap while its still available

Finally had that big fight with a Trump supporting family member over the holiday? Struggling with how to move forward as a family after they've endorsed inhuman atrocities? Well, if you're looking for permission, here it is: You can cut them off. You don't owe nazis anything.

As another ex call center employee, keep going. Companies only give treats if they're freaking out.

Guys, as a ex call center employee, this is fucking DESPERATION BEHAVIOR. Pizza and ice cream once may be an entire year's planned discretionary budget for a team, they do NOT value them enough to provide common comfort. If their doing this? Their not just scared, their TERRIFIED.

A promise to keep #ffxiv #ff14

this thanksgiving always remember:

#SaveSpeech The European Council has agreed on a version of Chat Control that it wishes to push forward in 2026. This version contains "voluntary" mass scanning, mandatory universal age checks, and isolating minors from apps. Chat Control still needs to be fought. CALL YOUR MPs/MEPs!

Santa Ragione spoke up, but how many more won't because of this exact problem? If you're a primarily PC developer, Steam *is* your lifeblood. Steam might be great for consumers but they are absolutely, 100% a monopoly and it isn't healthy that their competitors are not viable.

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls. What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

i think tech and ai positive people are going to be in for a big shock when anti tech and anti ai sentiment becomes a major part of leftwing politics going forward especially as datacenters continue to destroy communities and raise electricity bills

defunctland videos are great because everyone in charge of disneyland for the past half century have been trying to carry out what they think walt would’ve wanted like they’re the patriots in MGS trying to carry out the boss’s will. coincidentally both involve giant robot dinosaurs

If you don't get that the "yucky porn games" are the gateway to censor further media that YOU personally think is acceptable, you need to get your head out of your ass. They're trying to divide people into smaller groups so their collective power is also smaller. Kill the cop in your head.

Santa Ragione are a well-known studio, covered by a great many mainstream outlets. Their latest game will not be releasing on Steam for... reasons? Steam won't tell them why, won't tell them what needs fixing, and won't communicate in general. Every other store will carry it. Just not Steam.

#SaveSpeech if you're Canadian, you may have heard about a handful of bills that have free speech and anti-surveillance orgs worried, so ive made a cheat sheet of info about what makes each one worrying! We need to block these bills! please contact your reps! oncanadaproject.ca/findyourrep

if youre calling paypros and looking for a talking point to use as a jumping off point, this is a great angle to go for! alongside just wasting their time, hammer the idea that their actions are LOSING them money!

IGN is paying attention to censorship again. Use their momentum, call visa and mastercard, tell them you read the article, ask them why they're censoring legal stuff reminder that you don't need to know specifics of what's at play. It's often better to sound like a normie

Corporations are relying on shame to stop folks from fighting to keep porn around. An amazing way to fight against this stuff is to simply not be ashamed of sex and sexuality; even if you think some of it is "cringe". You'll do yourself a favor by eliminating your shame about sex.

Idk how many times people are gonna have to say "stop using ai it is literally killing us" before people listen. No not even as a joke. don't go near this shit.
