Holy Shit.
If you thought Peter Thiel might be a little insane, but what harm could he possibly do. Well, here’s a look into the mind of this completely unhinged & dangerous lunatic.

NYT: “You would prefer the human race to endure right?”
PT: “Uh -“
NYT: “You’re hesitating”

Educators need to work together with people like Professor Crawley keep the synthetic text extruders out of our education systems.

“Generative AI” has no place in schools or universities, and that’s before considering the enormous environmental damage these systems are causing right now.

I’m a professor literally risking my own life to fight the menace of Gen AI destroying education. In this piece thoroughly backed by scientific research, I explain how Gen AI is destroying education, the environment, and the workforce.

Please please please share this. Because I'm a whistleblower against Gen AI, I may not be able to pay my rent next month.

Palestine is a sadistic testing ground for Big Tech surveillance and data technologies. The global capital ownership class will use it to try and eliminate dissent all over the world as they attempt to maintain subservient populations and global hegemony.

Doesn't he know that we already have Capitalism?

“F*ck ICE, and f*ck the Trump administration. Go touch grass. Get a hobby.” 🔥 👀

Happy to see new protest music
Sad that we live in a world where it becomes necessary

This one goes out to #bluemaga and #votebluenomatterwho

We have what we need to build the counter-economy. One that actually supports the resource needs of our communities without footholds for market dynamics to turn it into another parasitic capital enterprise.

Some video from earlier, multiple journalists bloodied in the scrum. This is just 90 seconds of over 10 minutes of extremely aggressive LAPD response tonight

Can someone please make an encrypted local barter social networking app with a blockchain-based time-banking database and absolutely no tie-ins to currencies or crypto exchange or ad services? And with infrastructure to support pan-library hubs (e.g., for tool libraries, etc.)?

Asking for humanity.

True: @zohranmamdani lives in 1 unit of rent-stabilized housing.

Also true: Andrew Cuomo oversaw the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stabilized housing. And killed NYC’s program helping people move out of shelter.

Leaders must show moral clarity. Andrew, time to move out. 🧵

Any school that uses PragerU for anything is not a school. It is a de-education camp.

And the thought of kids being brought up on that christofascist propaganda is terrifying.

Please understand the target of Christian Fundamentalists like Hegseth & the Project 2025 architects is all LGBTQ people, not just trans folk. If you want to know what they will do, look at what is preached in their churches. Hegseth is a follower of extremist pastor Doug Wilson of Moscow, ID.

I think it is REALLY FUCKING TELLING that the two groups now being attacked and blamed for Harris' loss are the two groups that were not allowed to speak at the DNC last August.

Oh, you thought we'd forgot about that!

I am the one who remembers.

Fuck Harry Potter

Go read Terry Pratchett's Discworld series.

It has wizards in a rich fantasy setting with, tons of humor & heart. It challenges racism & phobic ideologies while being truly inclusive.

I recommend starting with "Guards! Guards!" and continuing through the City Watch series.

✋🏼Please stop.
My family and I in Gaza are living an unknown fate and we have no options or way to escape this war.
Today, and for some time now, there has been a relative decrease in prices. There is flour and sugar, and I am trying to ask for your help to buy them.

There are less than 10 trans athletes out of the 500,000+ in the NCAA. This “issue” is fictitious, and a lot of self-proclaimed liberals need to accept that they’ve fully swallowed right wing propaganda.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Rateeba. Rateeba is a widow and the mother of Mohammad, Ahmed and Maha. She is worried about their education- The boys have had to stop their studies and Maha is trying to finish her last year of high school. They are struggling to survive.

Maybe we could start a "Running of the bulls" on Wall Street? That's the only bull market I'd support.

Please help Lobna and her family. Give if you can and share with a quote post in any case.

The only Civil War reenactors I give a shit about.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mouni. Mouni is a pregnant mother of three, Mahmoud, 10, Areij, 4 and Shahd, 2. Her husband Mohammed and her lost their home and have been living in tents- she is struggling to feed her kids and also have enough nutrients for her pregnancy.

My theory is that if we taxed most of these people without telling them and the people they pay to manage their money didn't tell them, they'd never notice.

And if you'd never notice you should be taxed even more.

This is a good thread, by the way. I want the world to know, as someone who is either currently a professor at the Open Institute of Technology or was fired for complaining about Gen AI without notice...

This is OPIT. Don't enroll in OPIT! "Intro to prompt engineering!" 😵‍💫

Four Illinois hospitals have stopped providing gender affirming care to trans kids, in violation of Illinois law, because they're complying in advance with the Trump administration.

@jbpritzker.bsky.social & @kwameraoul.bsky.social are defending the HOSPITALS.

So much for being a sanctuary state.

Once you understand that this is a system problem and we're stuck in a disadvantaged feedback loop that doesn't need to exist at all, you can never unsee the potential world we could and should all share. It will pain you every day, as your time is siphoned away in unwilling support of it.

Better idea: Let's just ban stocks in general. Investments of the world's resources should not be decided by private hands, and peoples' retirements should not depend on the casino of the absurdly wealthy.

Israel is, and always has been, a Terrorist State, that is currently committing genocide. You were warned, forty years before Hamas even existed.
