I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

The year is 2025. There are three social networks remaining. They are run by Dweeb Lowtax, Tweaker Lowtax, and Girlboss Lowtax. You have to pick at least one.

The fact they jumped straight to AI actors modeled after women when, if I’m not mistaken, male actors are a higher labor cost kind of says it all doesn’t it,
Like… it's kind of right there, no?

Few things funnier than pretending that it’s somehow racist/classist/transphobic to be against AI as every tech company rushes to turn their models into mechahitler while dumping toxic waste into communities of color

The function of the waffles joke is an in-group signifier. Singal, Graber, and Oppiliappan are showing in-group solidarity; they're all in on a joke. The joke is they have institutional power, and you don't, and they feel contempt for you, that you still want to have opinions about how power's used.

Today I learned that Colin Kaepernick's foundation provides free independent autopsies for families whose loved ones died in police custody, which is an extremely cool thing I wish didn't need to exist
I don’t think they’ve shared it here yet, but @motherjones.com has published about this

We do NOT deadname our siblings no matter how frustrating or problematic or hurtful to the cause they might be. That is the tool of those who make us their enemies and a line we must not cross.
I don't need to know Sarah McBride's deadname to know she's unhelpful, and neither does anyone else
A trans person's deadname is not something you weaponize, I don't give the tenth part of a single fuck who they are or what your intention is 💖

The findings “suggest that medical AI tools powered by LLMs have a tendency to not reflect the severity of symptoms among female patients, while also displaying less ‘empathy’ towards Black and Asian ones.”
AI medical tools downplay symptoms in women and ethnic minorities
Large language models reflect biases that can lead to inferior healthcare advice to female, Black and Asian patients
