Why do people get so upset and angry when I point out that something that is very obviously racist, is racist?

call me old fashioned but I would prefer the Lying Machine not be used to "simplify" my medical records.
Anthropic head of life sciences: “you can integrate all of your personal information together with your medical records and your insurance records, and have Claude as the orchestrator and be able to navigate the whole thing and simplify it for you.”
Anthropic joins OpenAI's push into health care with new Claude tools
Anthropic’s new offerings allow users and providers to work with medical data, mimicking similar moves by OpenAI.

In case you’re wondering whether the pro-ICE reactions to Renee Nicole Good’s murder are natural, here’s a comment that was just left on my video. My video about anti-transgender bias at the BBC. I haven’t made a video about Good yet.

Sister in law is Polish. Lovely girl. On Christmas Day, brother informed me of the fact they had a LIVE CARP in their bath for days and ate it on Xmas Eve. Feel like more people need to be aware of this tradition.

Fundamental to understanding this is that "Spag Bol" is an entirely British dish that is intensely bland and shares only the name with what you or I would think of as ragù alla bolognese. Her son wasn't wrong in doing this.
The Threads vibe is so hard to describe. It’s dire and dumb and full of engagement farming but then you also get accidental perfect posts like this.

The Coalition doesn't "need to see" hate speech protections for groups of people it hates #auspol
Completely unsurprising that the Ley Opposition does not consider anti-LGBTIQ+ hatred (or other forms of prejudice like ableism or misogyny) to be as serious, or worthy of a response, as racial and (some forms of) religious hatred.

Coalition doesn’t ‘need to see’ sexuality protections in hate speech reforms, says Ley
The opposition leader says reforms to the country’s vilification laws must be focused solely on Islamic extremism and antisemitism.

29 years ago today, Homer Simpson had an epic chili pepper-induced hallucination. “El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer” first aired January 5, 1997.
Most of the sequence was animated completely by David Silverman as he wanted it to look exactly as he had imagined it.

One of the perks of having small kids is you're socially allowed to be feral again, running around soft play, doing silly voices, climbing stuff, and everyone just thinks you're a "great parent". Dreading the day they grow up and I have to go back to pretending I'm normal.

Something I don't think folks have fully clocked is the degree to which just about everyone under the age of 45 in any natsecs adjacent space to the left of groypers is flatly saying "this is illegal as shit, that's all there is to it"
Yep there’s no legal justification here. Either we have laws or we don’t.
They didn’t even bother to ask for an AUMF, impeachment

Unfortunately this period of innocence is being shortened by the critical mass of dumb fuckery that exists in the world today.
