This surveillance can happen through all sorts of apps, such as video games, news apps, weather trackers, and dating apps.

I will never understand how anybody could look at a photograph of a beautiful creature and think that it needed to be improved

Idk how Gen Z expects to afford a home when they're out here childishly splurging on all these $2 cans of V8 and $6 rotisserie chickens

The Washington Post's eugenicist sleight of hand Stop trying to make eugenics a thing, WaPo.

A recent Washington Post headline posed the blatantly eugenicist question, “Is autism preventable in certain cases after all?” and posited its answer as “some scientists say yes.” @ejwillingham.bsky.social shreds the article to bits, in the latest TPGA newsletter:

“When you see that happen at a neighborhood association, you realize that it’s not just the usual, you know, ‘radical Antifa cells,’” Reilly said, “it’s crossed over into the minds of your SUV driving soccer moms.”

Until we figure out that it’s all coming from the same damn place, we’re just going to fight about who has it worse for the rest of all time.

Yes, fellow disabled people, I’m talking to us here.

I promise, as brutal and lethal and demoralizing as ableism can be: there are a lot of prejudices about these days.

It’s never a good look to say you belong to a group against whom society bears “the last acceptable prejudice”, because a lot of groups have experienced prejudice in the last 24 hours. You just weren’t concerned.

the history of music in the 20th century:

In dealing with younger classmates I have noticed there’s an expectation that it works immediately or it’s useless, and in older folks I have noticed a kind of prideful unwillingness to be wrong.

“Mindful” is the way folks launder everything.

What if there was a mindful way to steal people’s art, pollute Black neighborhoods, and raise everyone’s electric bill?

Two posts from altnps.bsky.social: Amazing work, everyone the OpenAI boycott is working! And thank you to our international supporters who are joining us. Sam Altman is in panic mode he went on X tonight telling users to ask him anything about OpenAI’s Pentagon deal as the boycott of ChatGPT grows. We know a lot of people are choosing to boycott AI overall, and we support that. AI is terrible on the environment! At the same time, we understand many people still use AI tools. If you’re going use AI please delete the ChatGPT app, and switch to Claude by Anthropic instead.

As an author whose book was pirated by Anthropic: using Claude is not an ethical choice

Writing antifascist posts on a site that pays fascists is so counterproductive, I don’t know where to start.

Yes, I know it’s hard to switch. And they plan to make it harder.

I hope you understand by now that I and a whole bunch of people will never read or share your substack posts. It’s a Nazi platform. Any glowing insights are rendered completely dim by that affiliation.
