That’s why there is such a desperate, though successful, attempt to rewrite history, what we all lived through.

Dave Andress@davidandress.bsky.social · 4d agoCovid lockdowns demonstrated, in a deeply imperfect way, the possibility of large-scale social solidarity for a higher cause. That is a prime reason why so many powerful people want us to run screaming away from them into the comforting arms of selfish individualist competition.
'Anthropic described the project as “our effort to disruptively scan all the world’s books” in an internal memo, which noted “we do not want it to be known that we are pursuing this project”.'
Dr. Jeroen W.P. Wijnendaele@drdragases.bsky.social · last wk.No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

Mark Carney's made deep cuts to Natural Resources Canada that strip away science-based expertise on forest fires, "decimating capacity" to track wildfire activity. Only one forest pathologist now monitors the entire forestry system east of the Rockies. 5/ www.nationalobserver.com/2025/12/05/n...

JKR and her new org apparently helped get the new Amnesty International report on how TERF organizations destroy lives taken down from their site. Well, guess what? The Streisand Effect is real. Here's the entire report in a thread. Read it. Share it.
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 3w agoAmnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

The idea of “moral contamination via novel” was popular back in the *checks notes* 18th c and still persists. Austen wrote a parody of it. As a student of history…I don’t think it’s books that are the problem, but women’s pleasure sure is easier to worry about than other stuff.
Ash's Ashes@uponashensands.bsky.social · 4w agoConstantly fascinated by the assertion that romance fiction SPECIFICALLY is a morality play for woman, who are dumb idiot babies. "It portrays [dangerous thing] as romantic". Man I am not 8, I don't have to self insert every story. Sometimes I am content to see a protag get into sexy danger lol
Ngl you guys. I've just been playing deadlock in my "posssible drawing time slots". I'm very bad at it! I like playing Drifter, Pocket and Celeste most, but Calico is not far behind tbh, I just gotta try her more
the good ol keep prosecuting my cases and we'll end up like this baroryuu
"executives with no understanding of the industry" seems to be an endemic problem across industries: higher education, medicine, you name it, a bunch of suits with MBAs and unearned arrogance are destroying everything around us, and for some reason, we're supposed to accept that they know best
Greg Iwinski@garyjackson.bsky.social · 4w agoTV writers were right in 2023 and are being proven more right every day — there was a stable television model that made everyone lots of money and put out good shows. Then execs with no understanding of the industry confused the production model and the distribution model, and they blew it all up.
I know im goin on about this a lot but please contact your senators about opposing KOSA and the KIDS Act. Please make friends and family aware of how this will effect them and their privacy.
