Oh.

It's appendicitis.

And a perforated colon.

Thaaat's gonna be a rough few days

i do not want to live in the fucking panopticon fuck the camera that blinks above me at work, the tv watching me at the store, the "smile you're on camera" signs, the ring cameras, the flock cameras, the apps to track your child or partner, the activist friends telling me "just assume everything you do in public is being recorded somewhere", the government building protester databases, the teslas recording every move all around them, the knowledge that everything i type or search or save is being tracked and logged, the ads and search suggestions that mysteriously know what i was just talking about, the way biometrics keep creeping into more places, the way my car spies on me, the way my phone spies on me, the way there is nowhere to go to get away from it!!! no wonder the internet is full of vindictive little stalkers and witchhunts when it's the water and the air of society from the culture to the infrastructure

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS. WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK. AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE. SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS. THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES. IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

the Black Panthers were right

Awwww, that's adorable. They think they can just jingle keys & make us forget they partnered with Peter Thiel & a corp that'd absolutely sell our info to the highest bidder.

We're not that dumb & you're not getting those Nitro subs back.

Keep the pressure on, folks ✊️🔥

Musk advocates white monoculturalism

We must speak plainly about the agenda Elon Musk & other MAGA leaders are pushing. It’s white nationalism.

There’s no room for Black, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, Native, Jewish or all other Americans in Musk’s monocultural vision.

Multiculturalism is superior. We can’t allow Musk & others to end it.

Trump Administration Erases the Government’s Power to Fight Climate Change

Trump is selling out our kids’ future so his fossil fuel billionaire friends can get even richer.

The science is clear. Climate change is an existential threat to the planet.

We must transform our energy system away from fossil fuels and into sustainable energies.

Promising headline that completely overstates what is expressed in the actual text

Discord's response can be summed up to saying they're aware of the ethical and security problems, but they're not doing anything of substance to protect or respect users, and will make zero substantial policy changes

are you fucking kidding me

Discord might have cut ties but they're still planning to roll out age verification globally next month.

Continue to cancel your nitro subscriptions, if you haven't done so already. Don't boosts servers as well.

Hit them in the wallet.

Repealing Section 230 would be the end of Internet and it's worse than experiencing the AI controlled Face and ID verification like KOSA or Discord

You need to take action not just retweeting or sharing but contact your senators and explain the reasons why that this plan is actually bad!!

Oh, good: Discord's age verification rollout has ties to Palantir co-founder and panopticon architect Peter Thiel Discord is "experimenting" with an age authentication vendor whose major investors include Thiel's Founders Fund.

it's 2026. PC Gamer is doing journalism while actual news outlets post more transphobia. a sandwich costs $16 or five easy payments of $5 with SandoLoan

Discord lied.

they’re now sending scanned IDs to persona, a third party company.

“facial scans will never leave your device” -discord lmao.

making a list of american institutions that are meeting this moment, and so far I've got burning man and paleontology down here... guess we're rebuilding society around the study of dinosaur bones and doing drugs in the desert

Discord isn't walking back anything yet, but this shows they are feeling the pressure and you should keep bullying and contacting them until they relent.

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?

literally four months ago @discord.com had a data breach that exposed 2.1 million ID photos used for age verification

and because that went so well, they want EVERYONE'S ID now

cybersecuritynews.com/discord-data...

@discord.com No way in fucking hell I'm giving you anything close to a photo ID.

Change this bullshit or lose me.

Just got this email back. Don't use email, use their form: support.discord.com/hc/en-us/req...

If you haven't used their support portal, you may need to request activation and use the email you have associated with your disc account.

Hit the same points as you would in an email, tips below ⬇️

Reminder that neither Discord nor any of the governments that first enforced this provided any assistance to those who's ids were compromised during the breach in October nor has Discord gotten any punishment for deliberately changing their TOS to absolve them of responsibility

"Teen-by-Default" is such a hilariously grim way to talk about your userbase like, usually companies aren't this up-front about how they think we're all dumb children.

Last October.

A really excellent, detailed review, that's more explicit about just how much stuff *hasn't* made it into this remake - including the Murder at Cafe Alps sidestory, as well as the sidestory where Kiryu emphasises with a transwoman's struggles

cutting the trans woman sidestory and removing the version of the game that actually has that is so fucked man

He also still insists they are guilty, despite the factual reality that they are not:

For your reassurance, here's the Fallen London AI Transparency Statement and the portion of the Steam page which states that we're making Mandrake by hand.

We don't use generative AI. <3

ICE is afraid of children protesting “Next time, I’ll be back with a gas mask.”

ICE tear gassed a bunch of children on Saturday. This was a massive escalation of force. They were shooting tear gas at the back of the crowd, it took these unmasked people maybe 3-5 minutes in the cloud of tear gas to escape in without trampling. www.theverge.com/policy/87278...
