In 2016 people revolted against North Carolina bathroom bill. 10 years later and the country is up in arms over 15 athletes and there are Democrats who are insisting that this is a real concern. It is not. I won't pretend that it is. I won't say nice things about people who are pretending that it is
It's kind of crazy that the right wanted to turn Charlie Kirk into their Reichstag Fire, but instead they accidentally turned him into their Harambe
I just want to add that this is a real insult to the character of Optimus Prime, whose motto since 1984 has been "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings."
Project Salt Box@projectsaltbox.com · 3d agoToday, we filed a FOIA request with DHS concerning an AI-generated image the @DHSgov X account posted this morning. The image depicts a Transformer facing a South Asian man, over a caption telling "Mr. Singh" to self-deport and get off American roads. We want the prompt.
The gay marriage analogy fails b/c it would be as if it were already legal nationwide and Dems were campaigning to end it. This is how thoroughly the right has captured the narrative. Liberals can't even see the biggest rollback of civil rights for a minority group in modern history for what it is.
especially crucial on this day of jubilee to honor the early generations of Kirk/Spock shippers who built the entire infrastructure of modern fandom as we now know it — from fic and art to conventions and fanzines — only to have legions of male fans who followed later deny that women watch scifi 🙃
The number of people still seemingly unaware that Substack has a Nazi problem means it’s apparently worth mentioning yet again that Substack has a fucking Nazi problem.

I keep wanting to ask every Virginian or Masshole who insists "we're NOT a state, we're a COMMONWEALTH" how many stars we should take off the flag.

Believing that other people are real is antifascist praxis.
every time i think i have a handle on how much of the elite backlash to wokeness was actually about male academics wanting to fuck their students i read something from an actual academic that makes me revise my assessment upwards yet again
Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.
The Atlantic is a broken shell of its former self, but even it can do some actual journalism once in a while.
Nicholas Thompson@nxthompson.bsky.social · last wk.MAGA has been obsessed with proving an alleged plot by Biden officials, social-media companies, and researchers to suppress conservative speech. Jobs were lost, a center was closed, and reputations were tarnished. Now we know it was all a fiction. @anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu. buff.ly/BaSs2Cr
YOUR PROBLEM IS NOT THAT WOMEN AND QUEERS AND NONWHITES HAVE MORE AGENCY, YOUR PROBLEM IS THAT YOU HAVE LESS BECAUSE THE RICH WHITE CISHET MALE CAPITALISTS ARE STEALING IT FROM YOU BECAUSE THEY'RE STEALING IT FROM ALL OF US WHICH IS WHY THE REST OF US ARE FIGHTING SO SHOW SOME FUCKING SOLIDARITY

This is pretty catastrophic and I'm not sure how either of these companies reverse the trend. It really appears the AI bubble is based on the whims of maybe a few hundred companies spending money on two companies to justify five companies spending money with one company.
Ara Kharazian@arakharazian.bsky.social · last wk.New from Ramp data: the latest threat to the AI trade. AI companies' revenues are heavily dependent on a small set of customers. 80% of OpenAI and Anthropic's enterprise revenues come from 1% of their customers, and it's not getting better.
it's not an exaggeration to say that jk rowling is the world's most powerful and prominent transphobe outside of elon musk it's easy to not buy a tesla and it's easy to not watch the harry potter tv show
The Verge@theverge.com · last wk.As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.
The goal is to trick you, the member of the public, into thinking that the system, however stacked against you, is inevitable. Anything that pierces that normalcy is to be fought at all costs. www.wheresyoured.at/hyperscale-normalization/
Yes, they were. We were. In the Orwellian way — the courage to see the absolutely obvious. But the most important way they were right was in the insistence on speaking out, on showing up, on organizing. (1/2)
Bill Kristol@billkristolbulwark.bsky.social · 2w agoIn the midst of an awful lot of ever-so-sophisticated equivocating and oh-so-thoughtful-chin-stroking and too-clever-by-half-over-thinking, I just want to say, simply and unequivocally and for the record: The Resistance Libs Were Right.
Mystery solved: the Freedom Fuel Network was able to charge so little for gas because it stiffed its supplier and refused to pay for it
Trump lauded low prices at Freedom Fuel. A supplier says some gas wasn’t paid for.
