I hate that Meta is going to get away with this by making arguments that real people could never use like: 1. Someone else put it there 2. Never intended to share it 3. It was an accident that our system was designed to allow it... whoops! This should be company-ending & yet it'll barely be a blip

NEW: Over the last few months, Meta has run dozens of paid ads that included AI-generated CSAM. The ads, some of which were linking out to “nudify” apps, targeted men in the US, UK, and a dozen European countries. Some were running in the last few days

16 hours sounds like a long time, but it's not, especially if I shave, say, 8-9 hours for sleep. W/ that said--& I've said it b4--if 1 person got $80 to give = spectacular! However, small gifts of $2, $5, $10, $20 during this period add up and help so much, too. If u can't give $$$, boost! 💸💞

Now that folks are getting their Rose City Comic Con table assignments, I have a favor to ask. If you'll be at #RCCC and you were on my Jimmy Olsen cover, reply with your table number so I can assemble a printed list of where you'll all be, and send people to you to sign it!

The Jimmy coverThe fold-out map to who is on the coverThe endpapers of the Jimmy Olsen hardcover. A bunch of people who are depicted on the cover, many from helioscope, have signed the endpapers. One name per bow-tie.

This is a good and accurate mini-thread that also reminds me of an experience I had in my 20s that has stuck with me ever since. I was part of a three-person panel interviewing web programmers for a gig. All three of us were white and very genuinely progressive and anti-Republican. 1/

I think a good way to think about the current moment is understanding white supremacy as a spectrum with passive acceptance as the status quo out to actively arguing for global genocide.

My son, Lorcan, is shooting a film in three parts - this is part two. His star actually featured in ‘The Odyssey’ madly! Most of the key people are doing this for free, so just enough for a sandwich can help! 🙂 Thanks in advance if you can throw in! Cheers! www.kickstarter.com/projects/rer...

If you want to hear two Matts talk about just about everything other than the book they're supposed to be talking about before doing their best to decipher said book, this is the podcast episode for you.
