Yep, one of the biggest drivers of the elite panic around “wokeness” was the increasing prominence of Black people and particularly Black women in their fields and we’re seeing that coalition rewarded with the targeting of Black workers.
Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

Welp, good to know

Still don't trust Google and wouldn't mind leaving Gmail, but apparently, in this particular instance, it's not true
since the "google is now training gemini on your email contents" thing keeps bumping around here: it's _not happening_. I say this not to defend google but because I know a lot of people that have broken their filtering and made their lives much more annoying from sheer misinformation.
The malwarebytes Google opting-your-emails-into-ai-training thing is not true. The post is based on one bad tweet.

I know anti-tech lamenting is a Bluesky core principle, but please use the same judgement you would for any other clickbait.

Lots of ways to get involved. Churches are doing amazing work, organize there if that’s your thing. N’hood whistle groups, school escort groups, church escorts, boycott efforts.

When I was a young player learning ways of The Funk, Jellybean Johnson of The Time was a player we all looked up to, straining to cop the grooves behind The Bird and Jungle Love. RIP to a master musician who always grooved harder than anyone else onstage. https://loom.ly/FFrhEzY

In remote Alaska, public radio stations like KYUK provide lifesaving information during natural disasters.

But Trump cut funds for public media, and that could mean deadly consequences for the rural community.

From our friends at @revealnews.org:
In rural America, public radio saves lives
In remote Alaska, public radio station KYUK is crucial during natural disasters. Without federal funding, how will it survive?

So, Google is saying, "Let our AI spy on you, or we'll take away all the useful (non-AI related) stuff you've gotten used to using for years" and then it holding its breath until it turns blue is what I'm getting from this new Smart Features rollout.

That's (one of the things) I was saying!
and this is why waymo is a labor issue, not a tech issue! it's going to be taking money out of the pockets of rideshare drivers and putting it solely in the hands of big tech
As a QA person, I would be more comfortable in a Waymo than any other vehicle that promised any sort of autonomy.

They trained on some of the more difficult streets in the nation, and now they are broadening out to see what other factors affect the reliability and safety of their operation.
