Something I've noticed in my dealings is the men who buy into this bs would likely not have "made it" before "anyone cared about diversity" b/c they are either terminally unremarkable, unserious, or wholly lacking in charism (or all three); they eat up the ego-saver that the world is against them.
This shit is made up, actually

Wasn't much online this December so I missed Folks Recommending Watchmen As A First Comic Season & I just want to say: Watchmen is not a good first comic, you really need the context of having read other comics, (esp. superhero comics) to fully enjoy it.

Not every good comic is a good 1st comic ;)

Does anyone have a suggestion of a graphic novel/comic that might convert a 15-year-old boy who never reads (or anything else that might be given as a Christmas present since he doesn’t seem to like anything as far as I can tell?)

My family's dealing with a whole lot right now, with my mother's dementia and my father's cancer both in late stages, an elderly dog, and mounting debt. Anything you can spare would mean the world, and even sharing helps!

Dave Willat was just 11 years old when he showed up for what he thought would be a routine church choir practice in 1965. He and his fellow singers ended up making history.
We caught up with one of the kids who sang on 'A Charlie Brown Christmas.' He's 72 now

Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced.

Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

Visited the Haymarket Martyrs Memorial and gravesites.

We didn’t realize a lot of other comrades are buried here — Voltairine De Cleyre, Emma Goldman, Ben Reitman, & of course Lucy Parsons.

Very cool to see folks still leaving offerings, we left some of our own.

Solidarity forever 🏴

I wrote about getting cancer. But really it’s about an illness that’s trending younger and, as a top oncologist told me, being diagnosed in people “trying not to get cancer.” www.huffpost.com/entry/colon-...

Generation Z, millennials and Generation X are more likely to get colorectal cancer – but funding cuts could see the search for a cure grind to a halt.

To people posting Epstein documents: if you post images or docs, please provide a Bates stamp or the full Bates stamped image

A Bates stamp is at the bottom right hand corner in black text and look like "EFTA[eight digit number with a bunch of leading zeroes]"

This helps weed out misinformation

Out on the road today I saw the 𒊕𒈪𒂵 inna Cadillac

A little voice inside my head said "Don't look back; you can never look back"
But I can see you
Your bronze helm shining in the sun
And there's Gilgamesh with scale armor on, baby
And I can tell you and Enkidu will still be strong
After the boys of Sumer have gone

suspect a big reason why many academics and others who work in areas where getting facts RIGHT is key are disinterested in using LLMs for research:

they’ve tried it, they keep noticing major errors in output, and they conclude that having to verify all that doesn’t actually save them time.

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.

Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

(Published 2022)
That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial
A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

Wylder COULD DIE y'all! This isn't exaggeration, it's literally life and DEATH.

Wylder has severe dental infection which is impacting his quality of life, and the ability to function.

He #URGENTLY needs the funds for 4 root canals, not just for comfort, but to save his life.
#MutualAid #FundFriday
I dont think folks understand:
Im so sick Im bed-bound most of the day. I cant stay awake, or wake when I want, which is terrifying.

All of this is treatable but Im circling the drain bc we cant afford my treatment! We need a car & funds for 4 root canals.

I have so little time & spend it begging.
