bittersweet seeing parts of the lethargic british press sluggishly get around to wondering if US far-right religious think tanks are working to influence british politics. they are, yes! it is not secret! do your jobs better!

Every time someone opens their mouth to hype AI, just google โ€œname of person/company invests in AIโ€ and youโ€™ll *always* find something. Every time.

Post from Chariot - YouTube Hey everyone, please help! I woke up to some bad news. I received an email, which you can see for yourself in Screenshot #1 here, informing me that my video,...

I've been given a Community Strike on YouTube under what I believe to be false pretenses for an attempt to call out anti-woke grifters, and I need help addressing it.

If youโ€™re talking about Kapeโ€™s historical controversies re: privacy instead, all I can say is that PIA specifically have proven their no-logs nature in court & in an external review. Thereโ€™s nothing to suggest the product is unsafe to users & I wouldnโ€™t have taken the ad if that were the case.

Thatโ€™s not really how ad contracts work, Iโ€™m afraid.

Iโ€™m not seeing any comments held for moderation, so this might not be what youโ€™re getting at, but if you want a response, find the stream vod I shared in my most recent YT post & listen to the discussion that starts around the 1hr13 mark.

it's great! and not just because pillar is one of the nine fans of my goofy movie content. i'm constantly amazed by the extent to which pillar is able to take a complex political topic and make it personal in a way that also makes my understanding of the topic feel more meaningful
