I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

As much as I agree that it’s obviously very important right now to put pressure on the admin to release the full Epstein files and prosecute all of the predators involved

This org is anti-sex work, pro-Nordic model, and classifies consensual sex work as exploitation.
BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

When you see unhoused people asking for money what you should see is a fracturing of the social contract where an issue (housing) that should be addressed on a municipal or statuary level is instead foisted on individuals in a way designed o put callouses on their souls
man I’m sorry to be all corny here but when I see a “the city is beautiful! There’s more to it than homeless people!” I gotta say you know who’s also beautiful? People who have no place to live & are trying to get by in a system that has turned its back on them & if you don’t see that that’s on you

In the greater story of Minneapolis’ resistance to ICE, one chapter absolutely belongs to the punks organizing at every level. They’re observing, fundraising, running supplies, opening their spaces, coordinating, etc.

A story for @rollingstone.com. Thanks to everyone who spoke on the record.

People in the DIY music scene are using the community organizing tactics they learned by putting on shows to battle ICE.

You cannot have progressive leaders peddling this unenforceable snake oil. Listen to the experts on what kinds of constraints and demands are actually useful in reducing the harm and violence of an institution like ICE. It's *not* the things in Schumer's list. Stop giving him cover.

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

Imagine seeing this and still thinking we need incrementalism. Social media has totally cooked people's brains. We got intelligent people who aren't willing to see the forest for the trees because they don't want to admit they were wrong to a bunch of people they'll never meet in real life.
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Remember kids, schools will close often and classes interrupted due to our refusal to address climate change and gun violence, manage immigration sanely and humanly, and fund schools adequately.

But if you lose instructional minutes to protest the new police state, we'll rev up the old one!

The masks aren't the cause of their violent behavior. The masks are the result of a system that has uplifted law enforcement despite their open radicalization to the right. Where we are politically with federal police is the result of a failure to take seriously the problem of police power.
