The @blockclubchi.bsky.social story is extremely credulous, despite Charles's efforts to clearly describe why this is a bad thing. Some related reporting:

Point one: This thread is very good and you should read it. Point two: JK Rowling is literally in the epstein files, with an email that she wrote sucking up and ingratiating herself to a GROSS OLD PEDOPHILE well after we knew he was a gross old pedophile, inviting him to her play or whatever.

Whatever the Target boycott did to get so many of us on code to participate needs to happen w Gen Ai and it needs to happen real soon too

This film was one of the biggest influences on Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata. Seeing it for the first time, Miyazaki told his friend, "I guess we’re failures, aren’t we?" This is Crac -- the first masterpiece by animator Frédéric Back. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-lament...

I am in the hospital waiting for a surgery that may save my life. My wife suffers from a heart valve condition,&my 5 kids are in a torn tent with no food.We are slowly dying every day.I only need £150 for the surgery." I am facing death now Vetted @mommunism.bsky.social chuffed.org/project/lobnah

I don’t care if it’s a beloved franchise’s long awaited sequel. I don’t care if 99.9% of the game is unclockable as having gen AI. If that .01% is gen AI, that game and the company/person that made it doesn’t exist to me.

If games use gen AI at ANY stage of development: I don’t want it, and will likely never buy from that dev/studio going forward.

Mass murder.

Imagine if "big tent" meant accepting trans people instead of transphobes.

Harms Committed is one of the internet's most expansive educational resources on state violence. It only takes a minute to learn how to navigate the account before you gain access to thousands of works of independent media about everything from ICE's abductions to Israel's genocide in Gaza.

Squeezed by data centers' relentless demand for electricity, a Nevada energy company just said it's going to stop supplying energy to Tahoe. The city has a year to figure out how to meet 75% of its energy needs without it.

“It’s clear that user feedback is influencing Microsoft’s moves around AI on Windows... The Copilot rollback is just one of the changes being made.” Keep it up, haters🤗 techcrunch.com/2026/03/20/m...

My alabaster milk child Teuton keeps asking for ranch dressing at the caviar factory, it is most epic. The fishmongers despise him.

And 20% of all residents of Lebanon have been forcibly displaced by Israel already. In less than a month.

I describe it as such as a historian of disability because I want to remind scientists and the world that the history of science IS the history of eugenics, scientific racism and medical racism, and more. I’m not comforting them with the idea that it was a ‘pseudoscience.’ This is your history.

Oh this is a really important win. So you know people who use AI generated images and then copy that as a physical painting? This means that as it has no copyright protection (because AI does not), if it's too similar to the existing art AI ripped off, it is easier to fight back legally.

If the world burns down because of these A I freaks, they will find me among the flames writing horror books with my own brain filled with love from my own heart.

J.K. Rowling's anti-trans stance was exposed in 2019. Almost 8 years ago. Listen to queer folks! There is no excuse to be supporting this hateful author in 2026. 🏳️‍⚧️💙🏳️‍🌈

Lmao no Steve Carrell and Danielle Deadwyler's new show on HBO

I’m sorry the what problem

Watched Rooster last night because The Pitt had me so wound up and caught the second one tonight and damn that's a great show! Laugh out loud comedy with plenty of deeply human moments throughout. Hell yeah

You could say that Rock n Roll was born 111 years ago today in Arkansas, but probably not where you'd think. Before there was a Chuck Berry or Little Richard, there was those who wanted to be like her. Rosetta Nubin better known as Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the godmother of Rock was born on this day

And when this talking is used to make a deepfake of Bernie's voice 🥴

Jesus Christ Bernie ask a human

Your prophets were hallucinating the voice of god & having visions. Now, you send cops for those who hallucinate & have visions & incarcerate them in conditions of torture.

I see the "writer" whose novel just got tanked for being "AI" is blaming it all on an editor who allegedly rewrote substantial portions of the novel using an LLM. So, a) why would you use an "editor" like that, b) I reread reach my novels a dozen times during the pre-pub process, this excuse is bunk

Royer Perez-Jimenez was 19 years old. He died by suicide at 3am on March 16 at Glades County Detention Center in Florida. He is the 2nd person to die in ICE custody this week, the 13th this year, and the 42nd under Trump. 🧵

Lmfao what is anyone supposed to do with this information??

Stopped at this really lovely Persian chai house after a long morning at the DMV, to discover they're getting kicked out for running a Palestinian fundraiser. If you could sign a petition supporting them, it's real easy: www.change.org/p/save-a-pro...

Are you kidding me, @aflcio.org? You are having an AI policy summit and one of the keynotes is Max Tegmark? Of the Future of Life Institute? FLI is and has been part of the longtermist cult, funded by Tallinn and Musk. This is a dangerous alliance, and y'all are joining forces for a pittance.
