INBOX: Journalists at the five McClatchy newspapers in Washington and Idaho (the Idaho Statesman, Bellingham Herald, Tri-City Herald, Tacoma News Tribune and The Olympian) are calling a one-day strike today over wages and AI protections. That means no clicking on any links to their sites for today.

I think itâs so awesome how many people developed a disease where they think that giving someone 20 dollars means you are now their indentured servant. They think theyâre shark tank & making a big investment and not someone who bought a toy that said âwork in progressâ and already played with it.

Even If You Hate AI, You Will Use Google AI Search
The search giantâs AI-crafted answers are so convenient, youâll be sucked inâto the detriment of the web and the artists and thinkers behind it.

I realize no one over there thinks beyond their own vesting schedule, but what happens to Google when the publishers whose content they've co-opted go under and the web itself shrivels to nothing?

A good example of how X drags normal-ish people into over-engaging with a far-right echo chamber is how a bunch of them are seriously discussing the "controversy" that there are non-white actors in The Odyssey as if anybody outside of the nazi website will ever give a shit or even think about it.

Texas Children's caved and ended care under pressure in April 2022, over four years ago and they still got targeted by DOJ and Paxton. NYU caved and they still got served with a grand jury subpoena. Caving and abandoning will not save you. You have to fight these bastards or they will destroy you.

sometimes you can make a little bit of difference around certain things using social media, and most of the time you can't, but the main thing is that you absolutely can not let yourself come to believe that fighting some kind of society-scale battle is the reason you're on social media

The funniest part is how this stuff - like all the Marvel post-credits sequences - is NEVER actually "critical." It'll be some new MacGuffin added to the background of one scene, or Tony Stark saying, "In another universe, I might have been evil ..."
