the whole "six unelected crazy people tip us a few steps closer to the apocalypse every june" routine is not getting any more fun the longer it goes on

fuckin' mood.

This is what I’m currently trying to parse. Taken together, this whole situation just feels bad…

Every April, we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day to remind us how vital indie bookstores are to our communities and society. It’s a day of joy and solidarity, and significant financial impact for these bookstores. This year, Amazon is undercutting that with a “Book Sale” on the same day—a calculated move by a company that has already put half the bookstores in the country out of business, controls over 60% of the market and sells far more books than all indie bookstores combined. The people at Amazon responsible for the timing of their "Book Sale" should be ashamed, but they are shameless.

Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:

I suggest people take a look at the NYT's plagiarism lawsuit against OpenAI. LLMs are notorious for not just predictive text shit but literally spitting out entire copied paragraphs, verbatim, with no attribution.

can't believe it's 2025 and i'm stressed about tariffs and measles, like am i a character in an american girl book

So much of the Trump administration's policy endangers the lives of specific groups. So in a way, having RFK Jr. as the Secretary of Health and Human Services is a way of making things more fair because now EVERYONE is more likely to die.

Congressperson John Lewis, whose ‘good trouble’ they love to quote so much, was arrested 45 times in his life. The last was in 2013 protesting for immigrants, during the Obama presidency.

Costco, which has come out saying it supports DEI, will make no changes to its existing programs, AND pays workers a minimum of $30/hour, is up 15% YTD.

Target, which announced it is ending all DEI programs and has a minimum wage of $15-$24/hour, is down over 4%.

Keep voting with your wallet.

Can't believe the amount of heat we used to get for downloading an mp3 when every tech company is downloading the sum total of human expression to sell a scromited version back to us

Beautiful red roses on a pink background with flowing script saying "Roses are red," Violets budding and blooming. "Violets are blue," Hydnora plants opening up looking like terrifying red mouths bursting from the hard sandy soil. "Hydnora are leafless, bizarrely fleshy, and incapable of producing chlorophyll," A splash of cute red and pink hearts. "And so are you. Happy Valentine's Day."

Botany valentine. Another from years past. New one on Monday!

This is what revisionist history looks like, in real time. And this also is why it might appear that archaeologists and historians have to dig deep to discover the existence of powerful women and marginalized groups -- because their legacies are so often erased.
