Step 1: Underfund public healthcare. Step 2: Watch performance tank. Step 3: Blame public healthcare model for poor performance. Step 4: Privatize healthcare.

“Despite oil wealth ranking Alberta the richest province, new numbers show it now ranks dead last among all provinces on total per capita spending on health care infrastructure” But I was told it was the immigrants responsible for lack of healthcare 😒 edmontonjournal.com/news/local-n...

On a completely different issue, this Microsoft 365 outage is why the olds like me remember fondly the days where we bought software and it sat on our computers and didn’t have to be connected to the Internet and we just owned it

This is what a lot of people don't seem to realise about Rowling. It's not just mean comments on Twitter. It's not even just donations to regressive political parties. She *actively bankrolls* the entire transphobic lobby in the UK. Laws have been changed by her. She is monstrous.

If you need to give people a reason not to support Harry Potter anymore, JK Rowling is actively stripping queer spaces away from vulnerable students who need them. All of the money from her books goes to this.

what jk rowling has done to queer students in the uk (it's Bad) as you may know if you follow british politics, there is a piece of statutory guidance called KCSIE: keeping children safe in education. teachers are legally required to read part one of KCSIE every year. at my secondary school, like many others in the UK, we have a LGBTQ club/GSA. this club is ran by ally or queer teachers and is supposed to be an explicit safe space for students to use preferred names and pronouns. however, this term, we were told that part of KCSIE this year involves "formal requests to socially transition" leading to a safeguarding process and parental intervention. we can no longer tell our previous safe queer adults our preferred names because they could lose their job and potentially their liscense to teach if it was found out that they didn't follow the reporting process when necessary. if you're still a part of the harry potter fandom, you are FUNDING THIS. it's paid for from jk rowling's pockets and you're only making them bigger by giving her traction. it's not too late to leave and take a stand

listen. I understand that AI has contaminated everything in our lives and it's increasingly impossible to avoid it. but just do your best. don't use it on purpose. and if you have? stop, and don't do it again. we gotta push back against the shit future AI is creating for us.

I legitimately believe that the most fun comics are deeply unsavory. I make no apologies for the sex and violence and general misbehavior. It's part of a grand tradition of telling impolite stories in comics and I love it.

We're officially in ⏱️OVERTIME MODE🔥 Basically, if we get at least one pledge every 9 minutes, the campaign stays open and we keep unlocking stretches. Right now we are $140 away from the $85k stretch. Less than ten people could put us over the top. Will it be you? www.backerkit.com/c/projects/e...

But I can sit up for longer stretches now. And I tried to draw something the other day and oops I suck now. But I have sucked at times in the past and I can fix this. And so can these programmers. The trick is not to start where you were. Start something new, to see where you ARE.

Reminder: If a group calling for the eradication of pornography starts accusing minorities of being inherently pornographic that’s just a group for the eradication of minorities.

Collective Shout, the antiporn group behind the crackdown on Steam, says it will launch a campaign Monday targeting sex workers on TikTok, calling it an “OnlyFan pipeline” This isn’t about exploitation or porn access. They want to eliminate sex worker voices from the public square

This is why - as much as I loathe LLMs - I try to practice a bit of grace towards people caught using AI. Did they mean to use it? It's not always obvious when you have because companies are baking it in EVERYWHERE. I'm decently tech saavy and it's still tough to avoid.

Benn Jordan@bennjordan.bsky.social · last wk.

I use about a dozen software suites and libraries that I pay a subscription to access. Every single one of them is now prioritizing generative AI features. I refuse to use them, but I am subsidizing and rewarding them by continuing to pay for the service. But the alternative is not making videos.

when artists said this in 2022 they were laughing at us, so 🤷‍♀️ (but realtalk, I'm glad more people are waking up to it now)

Bro I'm so sick of pretending this isn't weird. The internet spent 20 years creating tutorials, open-source projects, blog posts & answers for free. Al companies turned all of it into products worth billions. And now the same people who created that knowledge are being told they're replaceable. We built the library. Someone else started charging admission.
