"Don't follow illegal orders" would be more meaningful if Democrats had prosecuted literally any of the prominent war criminals of the last 30 years instead of, you know, fucking campaigning with them

Ik ben vandaag niet bij het PAIS-protest, want ik was naar buiten met m’n jongste kind (14). In een rolstoel, want ze heeft long covid en is #NietHersteld.

Ze ging van 3x in de week waterpolo spelen en de hele dag bezig zijn naar een tiener die nauwelijks kan lopen en niet naar school kan 💔

The best description of the Telegraph you'll read this week.
I just don't need to know what the Telegraph has written about Dungeons & Dragons. It's a newspaper for people who are frightened of samosas.

It fucking matters what is considered debatable within an organisation. You will *never* see a Your Party conference debate on, say, whether we should have an NHS because it is simply unimaginable that anybody would argue against within YP.

And like it's not just transphobia they do this with, it's racism and misogyny and disablism and homophobia too.

So many people who imagine themselves to be Marxists have a deeply liberal and idealist understanding of transphobia. It's not a debate, it's a power struggle and if you aren't willing to clearly take trans people's side, you are a scab.
Nah, bullshit tbh. You don't deal with the presence of transphobes by debating them. That the guy arguing no felt comfortable doing so and wasn't immediately heckled into silence speaks to a fundamental fucking rot.

As someone who works on the interaction layer of software: it's this.

Stupid trends in hardware self correct after a generation or two, but *software* ratchets in the direction of unusable because designers are occupied with interaction patterns and not whether the fucking thing works properly.
i think it's useful to look at areas where the *tech* has gotten much better while tech *interactions* have gotten way worse. streaming has gotten worse, google search has gotten worse, digital cameras are leaps better. apple's silicone is so good it's threatening their user upgrade cycle
it’s so weird to look around and realize like, tech and media are materially worse than a decade ago

Teachers 15 years ago: Kids, please don't try to cheat and use Wikipedia.

Teachers now: Kids, for the love of god, please just use Wikipedia.
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

Learning With AI Falls Short Compared to Old-Fashioned Web Search
In virtually all the ways that matter, getting summarized information from AI models was less educational than doing the work of search.

This is the thing. You can't demand nuanced conversations without acknowledging clear power differential between sides. If one side has hundreds of billions of dollars, flattering media coverage, waves of lies, and Government Fascists behind it, is it really Bluesky Poster's job to Be Reasonable?
It's not the public's fault that marketing has shoved dozens of different technologies that have nothing to do with each other under the umbrella of "AI."

Blame that on the marketers and the techbro hype. They've poisoned the well and you can't explain to every single individual the differences.

One of the best worldbuilding guides you can read is Tolkien's notes on translation, where he talks about the fact that *everything* you write is in practice being translated into English; is is no more anachronistic to use the word "September" than it is use the word "sword" or "house" or "hello".
Not sure how I feel when a book tells me that instead of "12 months" they have "10 arcs," which are each 40 days long, and they all have names like Blossomarc, Flamearc Snowarc,.... I appreciate the world building, but couldnt we have just kept the calendar the same?

Final post on this because it needs to be said:
Nazi sympathisers are nazis. There's no room for leniency. Fascism is already on the rise again, if we don't stand firmly against it, history WILL repeat.
This is how it starts.
It's not harmless or funny. It's hell at our doorsteps. Stay vigilant.

Their evident belief that the word “rape” is a “profanity” should be enough to dismiss the idea that this gimmick account has any value to sensible people.
@sarahweinman.com has swears! They've used 158 profanities in their last 4,455 posts.

🥈 "shit" (28 times)

Which essentially means the movie was ruined for Norwegians and people who spoke Norwegian at release.

They could have just not said the spoiler stuff, mebbe?
Counterargument: the opening scene of The Thing ruins the movie if they translate the Norwegians.

Apparently some of you believe that having characters speak in a foreign language so the audience doesn't know what they're saying somehow makes sense and is good film-making, and I want to know who hurt you.
If you have characters speaking a language the majority of the audience doesn't speak and they turn on native subtitles and the subtitles are [Speaking in Foreign Language], we have permission to sell your children to a witch.

“So he should NEVER work again??” If he cannot be trusted to work with other people in a safe way, he’s welcome to set up a webcam and make money with it however he chooses from home. Asking 20 yo women to do their job without complaint while bringing a guy who likes hurting them is the injustice.

I don’t see “cancellation” as punishment for his previous actions. Keeping him off stage protects other women from becoming his victims. Thats why he shouldn’t be performing. He cannot be trusted to keep a workplace safe, and those other workers deserve safety more than he deserves money.

I’m a big believer in redemption, accountability, and getting better. Do we have any proof that he has done any of those things? No. Do we have suggestions he’s pissy about the whole thing and has learned nothing? Tons. Do you want to give money to someone you now know uses his power to hurt people?

What I wish the “should people be permanently canceled?” conversation would be focused on is not whether or not a rich guy should get to keep being rich. At every club he goes to, Louis CK Is in a privileged position over the exact type of people he victimized. Is this okay to do to THEM? For HIM?

With his new comedy show and debut novel, is it time to let Louis C.K. force women to watch him masturbate again?
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

On the other hand I think it would be very funny to retitle literary fiction light novel style. “Oh No! This Author Stand-In is Unhappily Married”
This attitude is how you end up with light novel titles.

All I'm going to say about this one is I think her in-laws must really love her if they're biting their tongues when she brings this to Thanksgiving.

Not enough to pretend to eat it. But enough that she feels comfortable and accepted enough to bring it.
