More specifically, harassing journalists, breaking into and raiding their homes, and arresting them, has never been a *great* look over the last 100 years or so (but to be clear, M.S. has not been arrested, nor charged with any crime). It is *very* important that the police are now held to account…
Deeply concerning to learn that Welsh journalist Martin Shipton has had his home raided by police this week. M.S. has been a formidable investigative journalist across many issues of importance in Wales, and it will now be important for police to explain their actions. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Fully agreed.

Biological essentialism harms all women.

This generation of students doesn't have to have so much debt. The government could write it off, tomorrow, if it wanted to.

This US administration isn’t just mad and bad, it’s manifestly shit at the stuff the US has in the past professed to be able to do quite efficiently (expansionist war for resource control, wealth expansion, etc).

AI has massively improved the capacity of slop merchants to produce slop. Which is what capitalism does. Makes big slop machines and turns them up. Pollutes. Spews. Amazon was already a slop machine. It's in the nature of the beast.
This.
AI slop is just a natural next step in late capitalism’s onward march towards vapid, shallow, shite cultural output.
As has been pointed out before, one of the reasons LLM output can feel like it replaces human output is that a lot of human output, especially under capitalism, was already slop. Churn. Algorithmically driven content creation.
This is the worst timeline
Wow
Wow. This is full of priceless details.
