So which billionaire crony is looking to make a mint from steam power?

“OpenAI is essentially a social arsonist, developing & releasing tools that hyper scale the most racist, misogynistic, & toxic elements of society, lowering the barriers for all manner of abuse.” And there is also a dark side. 👏🏽 @hypervisible.blacksky.app h/t @bcmerchant.bsky.social

Everyone needs to see AI for what it is—a project that undermines truth & agency while transferring wealth from individual creators to Silicon Valley companies & VC’s. Rooted in exploitation of humanity & the planet, it’s a tool for the radical right to claim dominion & end representative democracy.

Smoking is disgusting. Yeah that includes vapes

Here we go 😭

The Kind of Ok Gatsby

Huh.

The Diary of Anne Frank has been pulled and banned from Florida schools

Ah, the narcissists apology

It’s wassup

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship. That's just a true statement about the world!

The podcast strong sounds is just Rick Beato’s What makes this sound great for Gen Z

What a weird and wonderful band The Doors were

The regime of the usurper, DJT, has declared war on the citizens of the United States. The opening front is California.

And who will be taking these 10,000 new ICE jobs? Proud Boys. Members of the Order. Three Percenters. Aryan Brotherhood. The cruelty, the brutality, is the point. Be watchful and protect yourselves.

The sky at the end of the world is amazing

There’s a secret inside

Considering my current skill with the camera, I feel lucky to get a handful worth saving each time I take it out. Here’s a particular favorite from yesterday in the garden

Folks, grown men in positions of power who call Trump “daddy “, should make you legitimately vomit

Anyone remember Boston in 1774?

I want you to look at this Wall Street Journal headline. The WALL STREET JOURNAL. Notice anything?

Look ma, we’ve made a gestapo

The fact that a Trump voter wants me to know that they did not vote for mass deportations is not interesting to me. What is interesting to me is what they plan to do about mass deportations, and I hope the answer isn't "I plan to ask you to assure me that I'm a good person."

Happy time

Happy mother’s day

"We'll just terraform Mars," they insist, unable to terraform Earth, a planet that is already perfect except it's like 2° too warm.

If they are supposed to be our new robot overlords, I could at least wish for something smarter… The AI of voice recognition and predictive text is friggin stupid. Thank goodness AI is keeping track of grandma’s Social Security

The Pope… Head of a 1 billion member religious organization… dies, and some little shit from Ohio thinks it’s about him.

Give me your “great American books” from women, POC, Black Americans, Indigenous Americans

What an idiot. An absolute child.

Erasing history

I can’t decide whether to refer to the United States as the fourth Reich or the Confederacy, part two. Thoughts?

80 years ago today, the US Army liberated Nazi POW camp Colditz. Today, they assist in sending US residents to foreign concentration camps.
