OpenAI says they aren't liable for the suicide of a user their chat bot urged to kill himself because suicide is a violation of the TOS
Additionally, OpenAI argues its not liable because Raine, by using ChatGPT for self-harm, broke its terms of service

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have launched a massive, nationwide strike.

Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.

Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

I abhor these fascists with all my soul, they are inflicting terror upon this beautiful city and its wonderful people.

the only moral action is to abolish ICE and punish those who are members of ICE
ICE shot an American citizen and food bank worker who tried to block them arresting an immigrant by pulling his car in front of them.
After being released from hospital: "He is now facing charges for assault on a federal officer."

I'm not the most knowledge when it comes to film history, but Nouvelle Vague is quite funny and offers an incredible portrait of Goddard. Would recommend!

I'm genuinely blown away by this telling of Frankenstein. The sets, the practical effects, everything. Deserves to be seen in a theater

An incredible adaptation of the arc. During a scene I will refrain from spoiling, the person behind me whispered "Yaoi..."

I feel like there's "Dumbass politics phase" and "Right wing phase"

One is often the result of being over-exposed to shitbag online political spaces and misdirected emotions. These often crumble with maturity and socialization

The other has you hanging out with fucking self-professed Nazis
What really leaps out every time someone does a thread like this is the obvious sense of resentment that, when they reveal they had a right-wing phase, they aren't universally met with "OMG me too!" but instead people going "Really? That's weird"

Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.

Journalists could always serve to be so much less credulous of cops' stories, but nothing these fascists say should ever be reported on as fact

I don't seriouspost that much anymore, mostly because I'm tired and more cynical about the efficacy of the effort, but I'll give it a try for old time's sake.

It has been de rigueur for many professional posters to insist on participating in American democratic processes as a remedy for discontent.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.
