One place you can help: this new non-profit is launching to help kids without access to insurance (or on insurance that isn't paying out) get GAC in California. They're working with VERY trusted providers who used to work at CHLA. It's all a scramble right now, $ helps.

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
Also, starvation, widespread famine in africa and south america where farmers have missed the window for buying fertiliser for crops.
WHY does this look like a maternity shoot
And also for all the BART tile appreciation 😻
These are the 4 things AI can do well:
•Clean up your email inbox (badly)
•Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party
•Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself
•Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday
You can see why we need to base our economy around it
i simply find it a little hard to believe that shortly after every website implemented ai code and fired a bunch of engineers they all started breaking constantly every single day but its not related to the ai code or the skeleton crew
every superhero movie should run with a PSA about how all the cool shit they’re about to see is based on the work of freelancers unsupported by the companies that have exploited their work for decades
Meanwhile, that UK universal healthcare is being dismantled so that we can have a system like the US. Fun!

Guys who furiously insist everyone boycott one specific social network, while still continuing to use that social network themselves, are quite strange... Why manufacture excuses to be angry, when we already have plenty of real reasons to be angry without resorting to coercive bullshit?

that said, anyone hiring a WordPress developer with 20 years experience (yes, 20) who actually know how to do the job without the plagiarism machines? get at ya boy.
i mean you have to admit at least everything is very stupid
One of the dangers of open secrets—apart from protecting and prolonging unsafe men from any accountability—is that it will do more harm to anyone who can be hurt by it to even make reference to it, even if it’s been outright told to them how they’ve been impacted.
A record year for dam removals reconnects US rivers, reconnecting over 7,900 km of rivers. Many of the structures were obsolete or unsafe, and their removal is already restoring fish migration routes, reducing flood risks, and reviving ecosystems. American Rivers buff.ly/LwcNbjh

PSA: Avoid watching the new series “My Miniature Wife” if a partner has ever used your illness/disability as an opportunity to threaten and physically harm you.
I loved the cast but this was not it. Too much focus on an incoherent man repeatedly and excitedly hurting his wife. Depressing at best.
one of many reasons i will never accept abandoning my trans siblings or the broader queer community for the purposes of "a bigger tent"
Fantastic Four panel with the Susan Richards & Doctor Doom. Susan is behind Doom, looking concerned: "Y-you speak as though you know what I want--" Doom sits in the foreground, cigarette in his gauntleted hand, blowing an expanding series of smoke rings from the mouth of his mask: "Could I be uniformed and still be Doctor Doom? Obviously this is not an attack. Obviously you seek aid. Aid against THIS--!"
Not only did Doctor Doom craft his armor to allow himself to smoke, but also to blow fancy smoke rings...
Mayor Zohran Mamdani behind the counter of a bodega in The Bronx, flanked by various people. A journalist with a microphone labeled “Shop Cats” is standing in front of the sales counter, and holding the mic up to a black and white cat sitting on the counter next to bananas. The cat has an expression like in the famous “Sir, are you aware that you are a cat” meme
“Sir, are you aware that you are a cat, and Mayor Zohran Mamdani is standing right behind you?”

there’s a Type of Guy who will be awesome to you while he can gain clout for Supporting you. Once you expect to be heard, hired and paid like an equal, you will be jettisoned for more grateful and impressionable women
even if he’s not a literal sexual predator, look twice at an Industry Guy who surrounds himself with younger women and otherwise Diverse talent only while he can Champion them — yet his coworkers and peers are all just people like himself
i don’t want my appliances to be smart or connect to the internet. i want them to do one mechanical task for 100 years
