when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.
Mark Zuckerberg’s gamble on the "Metaverse" has lost his company more than $77 billion.

every time some prominent man is like ‘but all men want to fuck 17 year olds! every last one!’ i feel just fucking empty man. because there’s no way to confirm it isn’t true is there? i can’t prove that all of civilization isn’t just an elaborate cover for men’s supposed desperation to fuck children

The use of ‘nudify’ apps is becoming more and more prevalent, with hundreds of teachers having seen images created by pupils, often of their peers. The fallout is huge – and growing fast

I NEED more creators, ie on youtube or otherwise, to be explicitly direct about not using AI.
There's a few channels on youtube I watch where they say in the description or even on-screen that they do not use AI, and right now, unless I see that, I can't be sure

Today is London Pride. In contrast to previous years, you barely notice it. No rainbow flags in shops, no special deals and advertising, no corporate pride statements. Not that Sainsbury's rainbow bags are an essential part of LGBTQ+ identity but this withdrawal is a dire sign of our times 1/

i think the biggest public relations coup AI boosters scored was calling it “AI.” people genuinely think it is an intelligence, and that when they query it, it is providing reasoned answers
it's jolting how little AI skepticism has reached the general public. i've had many acquaintances ask whether i use AI for research and seem shocked when i tell them it's completely useless for that purpose. my wife recently told her colleagues about hallucinations and it was news to all of them.

I wish I could tell the poor woman next to me that if you’re spending 30 mins desperately explaining to your boyfriend how much ANY romantic gesture would mean to you, and all he does is stubbornly shrug that they don’t mean anything to him? The relationship is already over, babe!

RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated.
“Only very sick kids should die from measles.”
No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die.
Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!

See this? It's called a non-inferiority trial. It compares the new vaccine with the current vaccines to see if the new vaccine does better. This new vaccine did.
Placebo-controlled trials are not needed to test most new vaccines. Demanding them will only reduce vaccine access. Which is the point.

Republicans don’t want more “parents” at home. They want women at home, out of the public sphere, economically dependent on men for their whole lives— permanently relegated to second class citizens.

They want more MOMS at home. And not just because they hate women.
Their *economic* model depends on unpaid labor. And the most effective way to coerce unpaid labor is to create a second class of people and teach them that they're only "naturally" suited for labor they're forced to do for free.

Yep. We’ve been conditioned to think of the Nazis as master organizers, brilliant tacticians. That was always media spin. They were always, from top to bottom, nasty little freaks with no moral brakes
listening to Shirer’s “The Nightmare Years” (mostly Europe, 1930-1940) and I think I knew this but it’s still striking how the guys Hitler surrounded himself with were, like him, little freaks of no particular consequence, whose qualifications were a willingness to repeat lies and not think too hard
