If I had a dollar for every time I heard a weak health argument against veganism…
No one mistakes peanut butter for dairy. Suddenly, though, oat milk and veggie burgers become a national literacy crisis. Funny how the issue is never confusion, only discomfort when plant-based food enters familiar spaces.
Altman's "intelligence as a metered service" captures the AI moment well—it's an attempt at the formal subsumption of ever-finer microrealms of human labour embedded within capitalist production. You already have an underpaid email job but what if you also had to pay the machine to write your emails
Remember that you are more likely to become disabled than not.
You can be disabled by illness, injury, climate disasters, war, police brutality, unmitigated pandemics, lack of access to healthcare, etc.
Disability justice is for us all, and it’s foundational to all other forms of justice.
Women do the emotional and physical work of the world. We hold everything together. We deserve a seat at the table for these reasons alone. At the very least, we deserve safety, dignity, respect and equality.

For 150 years energy meant power, money & control.
Coal → mines
Oil → wells
Gas → wells
Uranium → mines
Someone owned the fuel. Solar breaks that model. Fossil fuels sell fuel. Solar sells hardware.
After that… energy is free. From control to abundance. #Bettrification
I went to Amazon for a thing, saw the name of a company selling said thing and bought thing from thing's website.
I am Spartacus.
@ossoff.senate.gov is the ONLY Democratic U.S. Senator up for reelection in a state Trump won.
He’s MAGA’s #1 target in the midterms.
There’s no path back from the brink of authoritarianism without defending this seat. Go to electjon.com & support Jon!
No - you are wrong.
It wasn’t 3rd party which was less than 2%.
It was REGISTERED VOTERS THAT DID NOT VOTE - 75+ millions.

let me get this straight
a team will not be playing in the FIFA World Cup because they are currently being bombed by the FIFA Peace Prize winner
If we discovered even the simplest intelligent life on another planet, it would dominate global headlines for months. We would marvel at it, study it, celebrate it. Yet on Earth, we torture billions of complex, feeling beings for products as trivial and replaceable as sausages, shoes, and handbags.
Why are some people scared to try vegan food. It's just made of plants, how bad can it be? I mean, you're out here chomping on decaying meat. Time to level up.
We #pwME have been bombarded with unregulated misinformation for decades. This is often intentional. There is scientific evidence but it doesn’t add up to a conclusive biomarker so the people who benefit from spreading the misinformation go unchecked 😡

The secret ingredient behind Prime Roots might surprise you. Fungi. Kimberlie Le says it is not about forcing plants to behave like meat. It is about working w/ nature & discovering a protein source that we love in food.

Agribusiness wants ‘’clarity’’ on plant-based labels.
Fine.
Then list the synthetic hormones injected into dairy cows. List how many weeks calves live before slaughter.
Full transparency.
Not just the kind that protects their market share.

Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.
The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.
It’s time for accountability.

"Forests are medicine that cures every environmental problem."
True story:
They store carbon, regulate rainfall, protect biodiversity (home to 80% of land species), purify air & water.
Losing them = losing our strongest natural doctor. Time to protect the pharmacy! 🌲⚕️

"—more accurately called artificial artificial intelligence, as it simulates or attempts to present the impression of having interacted with an artificial intelligence rather than being an artificial intelligence itself—"
Fact: Agriculture contributes ~1/3 of global emissions, but sustainable practices flip the script! 🌿 Reducing chemical inputs → lower nitrous oxide & methane. Promoting biodiversity → resilient ecosystems. Heal the soil, heal the climate. Never underestimate this power! #SustainableAgriculture
A year long investigation into the Hyperloop found …
“The truth was far simpler, far dumber, and far more prescient: Musk and his lieutenants truly had no idea what they were doing.”

Spot on. This is the most vile administration of my life. The deep seated hatred spewed out of the so called MAGA Christian is rich.
What is vibe coding?
I have only just recently started digging into data centres and water, and the way companies are hiding vital information is beyond belief. It is so, so dodgy.
The entire project to widely popularise the idea these concerns are "fake" makes so much sense in this context
Looks like Anthropic is back at the table with the bloodthirsty military of a war-mongering, school-bombing dictatorship.
Hope you're all enjoying your shiny new paid subscriptions and your vibe-coded websites no one asked for :) Hashtag quitgpt etc etc

When political leaders start framing policy debates as spiritual warfare against mysterious malevolent forces, reason quietly exits the room. Democracies require evidence, accountability, and rational debate, not mystical narratives that turn disagreement into cosmic battle.
