Just say when!! <3

Thank you for this. Some of the pieces coming out in the immediate aftermath of TrustCon were maddening and so disappointing. This piece was much more balanced and reflected what TrustCon was this year.

1) "Toxic platforms" are often where their communities are
2) the threats aren't just on the "toxic platforms." They're in real life, outside their homes. They're from the executives, threatening their jobs. They're from the smaller, even more toxic platforms people don't talk about.

IDK where you've been outside of AI... but there are folks talking. They're not hitting the big media... but they're talking. And there were even panels about it at TrustCon. Some good points in this piece... but some real big misses too.

Not to mention watching what happened to him had a chilling effect on others speaking out.

I was counting Alex the giant therapy rabbit, also a true hero.

As someone on Wreddit said today, "In hindsight, we really should have been more specific when we told Satan to take the old orange racist. I can't blame him for getting confused."

Also, he was always a shitheel, just no one outside of wrestling really knew it until like 20 years ago.

Bestest birthday kitty ❤️ Happy Birthday!!!

Exact same problems here, was bit by a dog as a child, now pretty nervous around big ass dogs. I'm so sorry honey <3 Setbacks are so frustrating, but they aren't permanent!

I am just floored. I had to draw my IRB a literal chart to explain how i was handling confidentiality -> psudonymity -> anonymity, and meanwhile these folks get to just waltz in and blow informed consent out of the water?

Okay, sure. University of Zurich is really bungling this bigtime.

This was the part that infuriated me the most. What, because it's words on a screen no one will be harmed? There are PEOPLE behind those words. A community of people behind those words. This study has made me (an anthropologist who studied online communities and a Community Manager) see red.

Honestly, i feel the same. I was skeptical at best, and this trailer does nothing to assuage that.

But that soundtrack SLAPS and i will be buying it instantly.

This message brought to you by the cowards at Google and Apple who removed this holiday from their calendars.

And by the fact that literally no one would be here without at least one woman.

There are several West Wing clips living rent free in my head these days, and this is one of them. Why are Democrats always so bumfuzzled?

> Rather than fight back we chose to sacrifice trans children.

At least they admit it. Tho that does absolutely nothing.

Oh, we are well aware.

We are also aware of who is posting on social media instead of doing something about it.

DO. SOMETHING.

She is the only one TRYING to do something other than wring hands and cower in the corner. We need more of her.

Be an opposition party and DO SOMETHING. Quit being fucking bumfuzzled, quit asking them to not hurt you, stop trying to find "common ground," and actually stand up and DO SOMETHING. LIKE WE SENT YOU THERE TO DO.
