As Vanessa Walilko @kalibutterfly.bsky.social explained in a discussion with me for @expandingfrontiersresearch.org is commonly understood among sociologists specializing in domestic violence, the β€˜justice’ system often commits the second assault.

I made a simplified version of this graphic for low vision and/or neurodivergent folks, and anyone else who might benefit! Please let me know if any changes need to be made for accessibility and thank you to the OP!

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe

I haven’t been this excited for a bubble to burst since I was a toddler.

If you are a gamer or enjoy any kind of media, I encourage you to watch this video about the Steam, itch. io, and payment processor hit job being undertaken by 'Collective Shout' and their attempt to try and ban/censor video games.

It is an important topic regarding censorship in our lives.

Like many technologies, AI is designed to kill humans, but in the most soulless way possible, stripping away even our ability to own and express our pain.

Bertolt Brecht: "In the dark times, will there also be singing?
Yes, there will be singing, about the dark times.”

AI: NOT SO FAST

I can enjoy folklore, tolerate differing political opinions, & have fun with a good flying saucer story, but where I see red flags is when we're unable to agree on facts. We can debate what facts *indicate* but we can't be in conflict about what has & has not been established as fact.

This kind of framing from CBC is a great sign that the pressure is working!!! Keep calling and yelling at these payment processors!

An investigation into the use by federal agencies of AI in the FOIA process shows intelligent research methods as well as interesting results. Verdict still out on DOJ, NARA, CIA and others.

One of my mutuals on Twitter teaches classes on making your own HOCl. It's very inexpensive to DIY it.

Last week Prasad and Makary announced their new plan to make COVID boosters not available for those without high-risk conditions.

Even they recognized pregnancy as a high risk condition.

Today their boss said nope, no COVID vaccines for pregnant people. Another decision that will kill people
