A thread on the harms of AI in its current form, and the lack of legislative control over its implementations.

Whenever I repost this, it's because another post has been added. The thread is long.

Rude Rude or impolite, including crude language and disrespectful comments, without constructive purpose. Highlighted Off, darkened Warn, and darkened Hide buttons.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

it's a really weird feeling to just be able to do things after what seems a lifetime being chained to sisyphus's rock

The rain has started in Gaza, and my family’s tent can’t protect them from the cold 💔
They urgently need nylon to cover the tent and stay safe this winter.

Beginning to wonder if the Nobel Peace Prize can ever recover from this.

I shatter artblocks with gay art now I guess?

A colour photo of the tour group going through one of the archive's strongrooms. A man in a top hat and a cloak stands in the aisle holding a book.

We last had this tour a couple years ago and it concluded in one of our strongrooms. Sadly it won't this year, but it's a good excuse to share this ridiculous photo.

MERL is awesome y'all

Why Did UChicago Destroy the Humanities? The answer is simple: to spend untold sums on useless buildings by starchitects.

wrote briefly about architecture and the situation at u Chicago www.thenation.com/article/cult...

Patience and her grandmother sit down at the table. "How is the feed looking?" "More than enough since-" "Right. You should cycle the bags then. Keep the damp from setting in." "May I do it this afternoon? I'd like to spend some time with Mother today." "You may spend time with your Mother this evening. While you study." "Mother won't have any energy then. She hasn't been-" "That woman. It's always one thing or another. God only knows how much your Father has spent on those remedies. I told him to marry that Miller girl. Wide hips that one. But my boy was transfixed by that consumptive glow. Lost his chance to that Dikkeman boy of all people." "You shouldn't say such things."

Photo of drawn syllabi - two for comics classes and one for a non comics class as a minicomic

Meant to share a while ago, all my drawn syllabi for the semester, including the minicomic as syllabus with my Ai statement in it. (Curiously there are more words in my comics syllabi than the non-comics one…) All available (with text versions as well) on my site spinweaveandcut.com/fall-2025-sy...

The language of non-consent around AI is really telling. "It's too late to be scared." "It's here whether we want it or not." "You'll have to learn to work with it." "You can't fight the inevitable."

All just variations of "you're not allowed to say no." Creepy technology made by creepy people.

rent? how??

E is for... Elephant bird egg! This is the largest bird egg known to have existed. It is so large that it could hold the contents of up to 7 ostrich eggs. The elephant bird went extinct about 1,000 years ago not long after humans arrived on the island of Madagascar.

A post from the Vagina Museum, labelled as "adult content": The last day to view Trans Ephemera is 5th October. This community-created exhibition explores diversity, medicalisation and experiences of oppression through the medium of things that are normally thrown away. The exhibition is free to visit - plan yours now!

*sigh* Bluesky is Blueskying again. Here's that link again, this time visible to everyone. Trans people's experiences are not adult content, mods. www.vaginamuseum.co.uk/communitygal...

British Politics' Midlife Crisis Why British Parties Can't Make Peace with Their Actual Voters

On the morning of Keir Starmer's conference speech here's a new post on an odd psychopathology in British politics - our main parties don't like the people who vote for them - the dreaded Professional Managerial Class. And so they are acting out like a divorced dad seeking cooler voters. 1/n

Some transgender people see only darkness in front and behind them.

The current climate is especially accelerating this.

Transgender people just want to love the people they love and live their lives as themselves.
