Iranian people are gathering at all critical infrastructure in a show of strength and unity in response to trump’s threat to wipe them out but those of us on bluesky should give each other grace? Weird thing to say.

transmisogyny is just misogyny with extra steps. it was always about controlling how we define women so that they fit a profile consistent with cishetero men's desires and "gender critical" feminists played right into it. now any woman who doesn't look "feminine enough" is in the crosshairs.

An AI Upheaval Is Coming for Media. This Journalist Is Already All In. AI-assisted stories accounted for nearly 20% of Fortune’s web traffic in the second half of 2025. Most are written by Nick Lichtenberg.

Fortune should be mortified—"A story by Lichtenberg sometimes starts with a prompt entered into Perplexity or Google’s NotebookLM, asking it to write something based on a headline he comes up with. He moves the initial drafts into a content-management system and edits the stories before publishing."

The Nature of Planetary Habitability: A Conceptual History of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services | Environmental History Abstract This essay traces the conceptual history of biodiversity and ecosystem services from the late 1970s to the early 2000s. In contrast to recent historical studies that have interpreted biodiver...

My article is out! On how ‘ecosystem services’ went from a word for those aspects of nature that economics cannot express to a word for nature's economic value, and how concerns for planetary habitability disappeared from the environmentalist vocabulary.

Amazon Employees Say AI Is Just Increasing Workload. A New Study Confirms Their Suspicions Silicon Valley promised AI would make work less intense. Employees would beg to differ.

Marx said that automation would do this back in 1867.

the League of Revolutionary Black Workers came to a racialized critique of automation in the auto industry, as the "n*ggerimation" of labor, where automation only hastens the pace of work for Black auto workers in the late 60s/ early 70s.
