One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

The thing about so-called generative artificial intelligence is, the intelligence isn't artificial. It's real. It's OURS. The techbros stole our intelligence (our data, our thoughts, our stories, our art) and used the software to regurgitate it and spackle it together into digital particleboard.

This is the way forward. Legal requirement to default to chron feed of opted-in content, or you can’t sell ads in the territory. Algo must be at least one click away on all socials.
This is necessary. Social media isn’t going away, and the gravity of algo feeds is fascist content.

NYS senator @agounardes.bsky.social also said he's introduced legislation to require social media companies to give folks the option to TURN OFF THE ALGORITHM. Huge in an era of right wing ownership and control of algorithmic feeds. Tell your NY reps to support this! pluribusnews.com/news-and-eve...

YT videos are getting unwatchable. The inability to discuss history, mental health, or *guns in a shooting game* is preposterous.
I’m genuinely disturbed at how the platform is literally rewriting our language, not to mention how it’s suppressing important subjects if talked about properly.

there's squid games shit for my dog at petsmart and netflix can't cover this man's dental
actually fucks me up knowing that the hwang donghyuk the creator of squid game lost teeth due to stress while filming s1, did not want to make a s2, and only did it bc he got severely underpaid and earned zero residuals, royalties, or bonuses from netflix for s1.

This week's video is very important to me. I discuss Mouthwashing, and why it so uniquely horrified me as a disabled chronic pain sufferer. "I hope this hurts" indeed.

Fascinating video on Steam trends, especially these statistics- of all the games released in Steam in 2024, just 2.5% had the "LBGTQ+" tag and 7% had the "female protagonist" tag. This is supposedly the political trend that's overwhelming and destroying gaming.

This is kind of the crux of why none of these huge tech companies could figure out how to make games. They see it as a technology problem, but when a lot of what makes a great game great is an Arts and Humanities journey
