CANADIANS! Our government is once again trying to convince us AI is good, actually, and they have a whole big survey about how we can use AI. I pretty much just said "we can't until we can do it without mass theft and poisoning the environment" over and over again, and you can too

After spending the weekend rereading Canadian and BC Human Rights laws and precedent, I'm on the hunt for a Human Rights Lawyer to challenge my sport competition ban. Pro Bono would be amazing. I have some leads but any other recs for BC lawyers would be appreciated

My latest. "Do not allow your values to be captured and contained behind a screen in a cycle of inactive reaction. Jailbreak your cynicism and isolation, and escape your devices. Bring your hope, rage, and potential into the world."

Spread Me by @sarahgailey.bsky.social delivered all the promised horniness and squick. I feel they took the concept of “monsterfucking” as a challenge. Highly enjoyable and unnerving! Also what a great title!

Really enjoyed new game @prosperwithdragons.bsky.social Turns out our biggest obstacle to recruiting dragon friends is not the disasters but ourselves. Weird! Love the art, concept, and the wild look in our eyes as we flip the card hoping an EF5 tornado spares our beautiful city.

🧵I’m putting the MRM contract ordeal behind me to focus on making more art, but I just had 1 more thing to say related to this. Throughout the past several months many writers have reached out to say things like, “I wanted to push back, but I’m a nobody” or “my piece was just a little poem.” 1/5

This is a fantastic piece on how central the politics of humiliation are to understanding Trump and the MAGA movement.
The right is currently engaged in an all-hands-on-deck effort to *publicly humiliate* everyone who they dislike or assumes dislikes them.

As Ruth Wilson Gilmore noted, "[Karl] Marx observed that tax struggle is the oldest form of class struggle."
Given the "Big Beautiful Bill," it might be useful for some of us to become more familiar with tax policy.
