Abdul El-Sayed’s win isn’t just a huge victory for the people, it’s a massive, massive loss for corporate ghouls and their minions. The current is shifting and they know it. Keep that momentum. The future is ours. 🔥

Okay yeah, I'm back to complain about AI more. Just heard an ad targeting photographers like "AI is coming for our jobs, but everyone else is using it so the only way to keep up is to use it too!" jfc do any of these people have souls? This is obvious supply side desperation. Don't fall for it.
Every other progressive candidate should drop out and support Fry. He's got the best chance to defeat Sim, the others need to put their egos aside and take one for the team. The colloquial team, not TEAM.

The best way to make sure I never buy a product (or stop buying one I'm already using) is to advertise it using AI. It tells me a company is untrustworthy, destructive, out of touch, anti-worker, and just generally not an entity I should give any money to.
If I get another "Peterson Academy" ad, I'm lobbing another spiritual attack.
💯 There’s been pushback against shame due to how it’s weaponized to force people into hegemonic narratives and expectations (which is important), but that doesn’t mean shame itself is bad. Shame exists for a reason, it keeps us aware of social expectations and harm we might be causing.

It’s no different than Ted Bundy. They’re just picking people to kill and killing them.

I saw a video saying that ~30% of American Jews have more sympathy towards Palestinians than Israelis currently. I’m trying to find the source but can only find this poll, which doesn’t include information specific to American Jews. Can you help me?
Israelis No Longer Ahead in Americans' Middle East Sympathies
Israelis no longer lead the Palestinians in Americans' sympathies, with independents' shift toward the Palestinians driving most of the change.

Do tech billionaires understand how much we all hate them? Like I want to assume that they know, but based on how out of touch and megalomaniacal they are, I'm realizing they might actually be oblivious to the fact that their death days are going to become international holidays.
People keep talking about the “AI bubble”, which is totally fair, but it needs to be stressed that even “bubble” is too generous. It’s more like someone turned the human centipede into an ouroborus.
It was inevitable that reactionary centrists would turn against harm reduction and call for a return to mass incarceration
The Cities That Said Yes to Drugs
Policies that gave addicts clean needles and places to use drugs were intended to reduce harm. They created a “zombie apocalypse.”

One of the most important issues of our time is that the future of humanity is presently being authored by people who have nothing but total contempt for humanity and seek the erasure of everything that gives being a human meaning. It’s not just annoying. It doesn’t just suck. It’s existential.
This sucks so hard. As if the damages of living in a post-truth era with abysmal media literacy weren’t bad enough already, now we have people who have built reputations as reliably science-based info providers blasting out AI slop misinformation. We’re so cooked.
jess m. 🌤️@jametc.bsky.social · 5d agoit all just sort of makes sense, now, huh. all this shit was just generated by AI and he believed it all enough to parrot it on his podcast, and his fact checking team had to clean up after him this is a really massive blow to popular science. Everything is in question now. does he realize this?
Manchester election didn't make the headlines on BBC R4 Today. I wonder why? 🤔

Part of the problem that many liberal Zionists have not fully dealt with is that if "liberal Zionism" means anything, it has to mean full support for a two-state solution, which puts you in opposition not just to Netanyahu, but to every Israeli political party except Hadash and the Arab parties.
Alex@purplechrain.bsky.social · 5d agoalso, if your proposed alternative to protesting is to “make clear that we stand with Israelis like former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot, former prime ministers Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid” who all oppose a Palestinian state, describing yourself as a liberal Zionist is just window dressing

The Grind@thegrindto.bsky.social · 6d agoWith huge thanks to the 190 people who've donated so far, we're now at $17,375, which is 35% of the way to our $50K legal defence goal! At this pace, we need about 350 more people to give. Read about the case and how to support.
After tomorrow, I am taking a social media break. I'll be back in September unless there's something urgent I need to uplift. Tomorrow, I will spend the morning on here sharing some teacher supply list. I hope that those who can support will.
Please, please reach out to Pluto to connect with Amani if you are aware of any evacuation programs or know someone who is!

Got a really excellent piece of advice at a learning session today that I never even thought about: When you’re working with people who are unhoused and/or victims of trafficking, use clear bags—never garbage bags—if you don’t have suitcases or backpacks for them.
Frustrating af how you can’t meet people where they’re at to encourage organizing without someone popping out of a trash can like “WE CAN’T VOTE OUR WAY OUT—“ it’s the waffles and pancakes of political action. Is kneecapping mutual aid and connection efforts is gonna get more people throwing bricks?
