Had a nightmare that somehow combined psychosis, AI, and men.
At one point I was trying to use my phone to call for help and couldn't and tried to voice dial. My phone was mocking me and I couldn't tell if it was AI or some kind of internet troll/punked situation or just in my head 😭
Hey babe, am I a vibe-coded social network? Cause I'm down bad for you

There's a reason that the landscape of resistance to tech within and adjacent to the industry is in sorry shape.

Notion has gotten AI-nnoying enough that I don't want to use it anymore but haven't figured out an alternative and don't have the energy for switching 😕

If you're anti-war/genocide and a constituent of any of the Democratic Senators on this list, you could call or email them to *support* the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval.

Using the r-word is just bad. Democrats should have higher standards for themselves than Trump when it comes to using a slur that MANY disabled people find offensive. Looking at you, Graham Platner. New from me at @motherjones.com. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

In a survey of over 3000 men 18-34, 95.1% admitted to having used coercive tactics to get a woman to have sex with them.
