Massive win and beginning of the end for generative ai

I contacted my representatives today about KOSA, and you should too!

if their phones arent responding to calls, dont forget you can send them emails or letters!

Guys new scamming method on bluesky. Please share this around. Dont fall for this stuff

Block, move on.

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

Do not let these milquetoast white men content creators convince you that we are doomed. They are selling fear and profiting off of it. His health is failing. The cult has lost its momentum. The Epstein victims are actively making their case and trials will be happening, worldwide. The GOP is fighting amongst themselves about everything. Dems are winning their elections at federal and state levels. The military is being sent to cities to then stand around and get mocked. Judges have ruled it's illegal to be sent to blue cities in the first place. Alligator Alcatraz got shut down. They're desperate to hire people for ICE because people keep quitting. Protests are happening every week, everywhere. We are in a very scary and very chaotic time. Project 2025 is terrifying. People are being emboldened to be violent, and people are being traumatized and harmed. The country has been divided and damaged, but not beyond repair and rebuild. We will get through this, we can't just give up and comply in advance. Don't let the bastards get you down.

oh my god, man, they're gonna train AI on fuckin everything there. I'm so damn tired. I'm so fucking tirrrrreddddddddddd.

guess I'll keep an eye out for the alternatives, fuck's sake

I wish we could finally get rid of the lie that porn is harmful. It's a dogwhistle to restrict free speech and oppress marginalized groups. I wish people would wake up to that already...

"Stripe has indicated that they hope to be able to support adult content in the future."

Whether Stripe means it or not, getting an actual statement from them is pretty big! If anything, the pressure is working! Don't stop calling! #SaveSpeech

Assume that Stripe is lying and continue to pressure them

however, it isnt a BAD idea to call your banks and complain about Stripe, Visa etc and ask about your own bank's policies

50 minute call, supervisor reached, ticket filed.

The quick formula:
-be understanding
-be a little confused (is Visa going to tell my grocery they can't sell cereal?)
-be patient
-if they can't help you, you want the supervisor
-supervisor can you file a ticket?
-get ticket number
-call back w/ it

More important than any of this, just call in. Especially if you're not the kind of person who does. Every person who doesn't normally call about anything (I don't) moves the needle a lot more.

KOSA is back. This is the internet censorship bill!

And it's not just coming for SWers, it'll be coming for all LGBTQ content, because the people in charge view LGBTQ people as inherently pornagraphic!

We must push back even harder than we did last time we killed this bill 🔥

Y'know how Zebras and Donkeys are close enough to being the same animal that they're able to produce offspring (albeit sterile)?

I think Gritty and Mr Bobby are related in that kind of way. Directly adjacent branches on the tree of life so to speak.

The richest person on the planet is programming his robot alter ego to advocate a second Holocaust against an imaginary Jewish person, so shit's going really well I think?

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

5-12 of what? I'm kinda curious to hear more

A family of 3, outlined in green, hide behind a roaring bear, as large foreboding black shadows with nightsticks and helmets lurk behind it. A green star outstretched at their feet as they try to hide from view. Text at the bottom reads in call caps: "SHIELD YOUR NEIGHBORS"

SHIELD • YOUR • NEIGHBORS

Here in #LosAngeles, we protect our neighbors at all costs.

I know they have absolutely zero power, but the strange amount of "leftists" who spend all their time screaming about minorities while talking about how cool the *modern russian federation* is drives me up a wall, like shut up and admit you only care about white people!

One of the things I will never recover from psychologically is how much time I spent getting called a fed by people who LITERALLY HAD THE CURRENT DIRECTOR OF THE FBI ON THEIR SHOW

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

it uhhhh hits so much different when it's someone you know. fuck me.

please chip in and/or share the gofundme, it would mean a lot
