According to payment processors, purchasing fictional sexy art is grossly immoral.

Betting on school children getting blown up is fine though.

β€˜Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, β€˜If it can happen to me, i...

A British woman who got detained by ICE declared "....that ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone. β€œIndividual ICE agents get money per head that they detain – the guards told me that”."

Clearly, it's not safe to travel to the US.

Minnesota is calling for a national general strike tomorrow. I am closing my small business in solidarity and I will not be shopping or showing up for work. Anyone in the United States can participate in a national general strike. Please consider lending your support. Reach out if you have questions

what ICE is doing now is not new. That it happens to whites with phones IS new. The US has been a carceral police state my whole life. We run FOR PROFIT PRISONS. Incarcerated communities provide free labor for the state!! Billionaires and media-backed state violence are the same axis of exploitation

160 years ago today, the 13th Amendment was ratified.

People say it abolished slavery, but it didn’t. Slavery still exists as a punishment for a crime.

Alabama fast food restaurants have incarcerated people working for little to no money.

The Louisiana State Penitentiary has inmates in fields.

screenshot of a body of text.  the text reads

"The post includes information about payments from the different streaming services. Most of the streams of All Hell came through Spotify, which pays less than its competitors. Gareth writes, "If everyone who streamed All Hell on Spotify had done so using Tidal instead, we would have received an extra Β£31,847.38, which would double the amount we made from streaming of the album in this time period. Or if everyone used Apple Music it would have been Β£12,331 more." Elsewhere, he says, "There are many reasons, unrelated to artist reimbursement, why Spotify is the dirt worst of the streaming platforms. I trust by now you are aware of these.""

streaming is a reality. but truly – just moving those streams from spotify to literally any other platform? like, it actually matters

WRAP THAT, IT'S REAL

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.

Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.

An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.

Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

Honored to see Arctic Awakening among such an amazing list of games in the Excellence in Narrative category!

We poured our hearts into telling this story, and it's meant a lot seeing so many people connect with it. πŸ’™

my question is, if you know how LLMs work, why is Anthropic paying people $500k salaries to help them answer this question?

also btw it’s β€œcool” and good for engagement on these platforms to write as though you assume everyone already knows what you’re talking about, but for someone with shaun’s reach it would really be beneficial if he would make it explicit.

I could be totally missing the context. I assumed he was referring to a specific tweet thread I saw by dystopiabreaker. Would appreciate if you could show me what you’re (and presumably shaun) is talking about.

this is a straw man, which is disappointing coming from you tbh. it feels like you’re fomenting outrage because it gets you likes on this platform, which is what a right wing grifter would do on x. but what is true and important in this post is that AI is problematic because of capitalism.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed

student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism

teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.
