every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

The reaction to LLM would not be "everyone who pushed it should be sentenced to life in jail" if the entire corporate class hadn't rallied around shoving it so far down our throats their fingers are poking out of our assholes. Why is it on The Poors to be reasonable about that?

I think it’s important to remember that you don’t get points for being a bootlicker, you just out yourself as a spineless little worm.

The boot doesn’t care how well you clean it. It will still crush you.

Hyper sanitizing the world for everyone under 18 and then expecting them to magically understand things like an adult is doing a disservice to kids, the whole point of your teens is to grapple with and come to understand the world, that's what *makes* an adult of you. Let kids use fiction to learn.

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote:

"To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace."

No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

Also, Google "Society of Saint Vincent de Paul" and your home town to find a local conference (chapter) near you. We're a Catholic organization over 200 years old that seeks to help people who are hungry or have housing and other material needs. And we don't proselytize.
You can search for your local food banks. Also, many churches provide food pantry services, so if you live in a large city and want to target specifically helping your neighbors, you can search for churches nearby running one.
Do I just search for my local food bank? Or is there a list?

To add to this:

Like, you don't see people trashing Jamey Chadwell or Mark Richt or a lot of other outspoken Christian coaches.

Just Freeze and Dabo, and the hate isn't about their faith but about their malignant and self-centered use of it.

A lot of people think that national CFB media don't like Freeze because he's conservative, or Christian, or both. No, it's because he's a fundamental phony who treats people badly and grants himself absolution without changing his behavior, in exactly the ways Jason predicted years ago

We’ve created a society where there’s no downside to lying and are invested in technology where you can show semi plausible video of whatever you want. Let’s see what happens
So there were some AI-generated videos that purported to show Black women ranting about SNAP benefits, and... Fox News is reporting on this like these are real people. They're not! They're AI!

This is truly insane. Total unreality. www.foxnews.com/media/snap-b...

This will be a long thread on yesterday police massacre in Rio.

In nothern Rio de Janeiro city, there is a couple of hills called Complexo da Penha. It's Comando Vermelho("Red Command", a drug gang), or CV, territory.

CV is the greatest gang in Rio, second in the whole Brazil.

🧵 Awful awful massacre in Brazil
Gente, é o maior massacre no Brasil desde o Araguaia. Entendo quem quer puxar pra Canudos ou Contestado ou etc, mas não podemos livrar a ditadura de 64 só porque ela escondia melhor seus corpos.

Morreram 41 guerrilheiros comunistas e mais de 1200 camponeses no Araguaia.
