the world has changed

Been editing Ho Chi Minh quotes over pics of Reagan and spreading them in boomer spaces instead of working today. Over a picture of Reagan and the following quote from Ho Chi Minh The capitalists often boast that their constitutions guarantee the rights of the individual, democratic liberties and the interests of all citizens. But in reality, only the bourgeoisie enjoy the rights recorded in these constitutions. The working people do not really enjoy democratic freedoms; they are exploited all their life and have to bear heavy burdens in the service of the exploiting class.

ReCalibri They always make us do everything ourselves, anyway

I made a Chrome extension that swaps Times New Roman for Calibri on every site or just .gov. It also had Open Sans and Open Dyslexic, because f**k these people.

I’m waiting for Google’s approval for it to install automatically, but you can download it and install it in 90 seconds. Instructions 👇

Holy shit.

Reuters reporting that new admin instructions on visas are if you worked at a platform in trust & safety or content moderation or on fact checking or online safety at an platform you *and your loved ones* are ineligible for H-1B visa.

I think about this tweet a lot

JK Rowling got a full *decade* of press as a martyr for being "cancelled" (declared passe by people online) and meanwhile nobody considers it very interesting that a prominent left wing author is basically banned from entering or publishing in the United Kingdom for her politics

A tshirt featuring Luigi Mangione shirtless with pink text reading “I can fix him” and some hearts and doves

Text from the tshirt retailer displaying some intriguing AI generated hallucinations: Luigi Mangione I Can Fix Him T-shirts capture the essence of a timeless romantic gesture, promising a testament to unwavering love and a belief in the transformative power of redemption. This iconic apparel line pays tribute to the poignant sentiment expressed by the character of Luigi Mangione in the acclaimed Italian film "Cinema Paradiso." In the film, Luigi, a projectionist at a small-town cinema, utters the unforgettable line "I can fix him" in reference to his troubled and estranged childhood friend, Salvatore. This phrase signifies Luigi's unwavering belief in salvatore's capacity for change and his selfless desire to help him overcome his demons.

If this is what they are doing with the AI, what do you think they are doing with the much simpler and easier to control algorithm that chooses which posts you see and which of your posts are seen by others?
