Watching people humanize ChatGPT while dehumanizing literal small human children is one of the most fucked things about this era.
I don’t care if your book has a Paint cover. I don’t care if you have typos. I don’t care if you took the cover photo with your phone. But I do not want to read a book YOU DID NOT WRITE.
Writing requires you to write. To feel. To think. To impart that. That is step one to Being a Writer.

I don’t want to vote for a Democrat who promises to get Trump’s voters to vote for them. I want a Democrat who wants to put Trump in prison

one insidious thing about gen AI is it's not just causing us to mistrust dodgy images, it's also making us mistrust images that look perfectly normal. this is gaslighting in a very literal sense bc the technology is undermining the trust we have in our own ability to perceive reality!

TIP: Anyone who posts wild speculation as something that is “almost certainly” the case right now is ~almost certainly~ someone you should not rely on in moments where news is breaking and a story is rapidly developing.

Private equity is looting our malls, doctors' offices, and nursing homes.
Heck, you name it, and private equity has probably already bought it.
Their scheme spares no one. I’m fighting to stop it.

A lot of health care is cheaper than the alternative. We just don’t want to admit that in the US because we want people desperate for health care.

I am struggling to understand why we have prisons and jails if not for the Amazon executives who made the decision to purchase a Medicare advantage program and staff the hotline with people who had no medical training.
Amazon's One Care triages all patient phone calls through a call center staffed with people with no medical training or experience, and who have two weeks' training total. Patients have died.

World Central Kitchen brought essential food aid on the first boat to land in Gaza in nearly 20 years this week. Unlike certain other efforts, the food they're delivering is arriving safely & is culturally & religiously appropriate. If you've got funds to donate, they will use them well.
World Central Kitchen | Operation Safeena: WCK aid boat offloads in Gaza
World Central Kitchen’s team in Gaza is offloading 200 tons of desperately needed food that arrived on our first maritime aid shipment to the region. Carried on the Open Arms vessel, the cargo is part of Operation Safeena, our effort to bring as much aid as possible to Palestinians by sea. We have provided more than 37 million meals to families in war-torn Gaza by land and air since first responding to the conflict. The opening of this maritime corridor will allow us to provide millions more meals.

The NLRB is standing up to union busting. That’s why Amazon is suing to destroy the NLRB.
Amazon knows it can't stop workers from organizing, so they want to destroy the whole system.
Nothing scares them more than unions and the govt agency defending the right to organize.
