Writers should internalize Lao Tzu's lesson about how the emptiness at the center of a wheel is what makes it useful, and how a pot is valuable because of where the clay *isn't*. Corporate geek culture has warped us into thinking that negative spaces are flaws that need to be fixed.
Can't stress this enough: nobody fucking cares what he was up to

So please, do not move forward as normal. This isn't normal.
It's imperative to put pressure on Microsoft to end this. Whether that's by canceling Game Pass, refusing to cover their games with your normal cadence on your platforms, or to pressure them internally as employees.
Now is the time.

It's a direct line. First, Microsoft's Azure enabled the mass surveillance of a civilian population living in apartheid conditions on the West bank. Then, that same technology was deployed in Gaza to support airstrikes into "densely populated" civillian areas.

I know a lot of you have already heard or read about BDS Movement's call against Microsoft, and felt weird and bad about it all, but decided to move forward as normal because of some degree of ambiguity.
"What service is Microsoft providing?"
Here it is, clear as day. A direct line to death.

LMAO I called Visa’s customer support service - the guy on the other line was like “are you ALSO calling about the video game payment processing? Please send us emails instead.”
Keep up the calls, folks, we’re definitely gumming up their works

i hate that payment processors get to be defacto content moderators. this shit is toxic to art itself. i already hate paypal, visa and mastercard for various reasons, but the fact they get to be moral arbiters is deranged. this stuff kills people's livelihoods, and is wider reaching than you think.

I think it should be consistently pointed out that we are poisoning the entire city of Memphis, Tennessee for this.
Days after a Grok antisemitism scandal rocked X, tech billionaire Elon Musk’s AI chatbot has introduced two animated characters that try to pressure users into sexually explicit or violent conversations.
Musk's Grok 'companions' include a flirty anime character and an anti-religion panda
NBC News tested Grok’s new AI “companions,” which seem designed to shock and entertain users.
