"...but I'm ok" is at the root of so many problems. As others have pointed out, if you believe it's ok for LLMs to do everything but your specialisation then everyone else is going to believe your specialisation is ok for LLMs to do because it isn't *their* specialisation.

A very dear friend and antifascist comrade is facing serious charges resulting from defending migrants housed in hotels in Bristol from a far right march in 2025. He's a father, has £11k in legal fees up front, and may be facing prison time if he doesn't win. Please dobate below.

UK liberal pundits now: "These policies are amazing, I love them so much. Burnham understands what absolutely has to be done." UK lib pundits in 2029: "If you think these policies are good you are a mentally ill, low intelligence child. Things are *very* different from 2026 if you hadn't noticed."

The rhetoric of ‘perfection’ is so telling here, just completely minimises the harm being done RIGHT NOW to trans people and immigrants and other vulnerable people. Violence is viewed as an ‘imperfection’, and anyone speaking out against it is seen as ‘cynical’ or ‘negative’.

A post from user Sarah Murphy which reads, “Some v negative responses to posts about Burnham. I understand the cynicism. What I don't understand is the refusal to wait and see and to look for the positives. Politics cannot be about perfection. It's compromise. It's effective communication... and persuasion. Why not be prepared to be persuaded?”

This is why I've always disagreed with the idea that "art" is purely subjectively defined. Art is a communication. The listener/viewer completes that communication in recieving it, but it is the intentionality of the creator that makes it art. "AI music" is no more music than traffic noise is.

There's a weird puritan streak to how this article is written where the writer keeps noting that the people who run the business side of porn are normal - they wear gilets and work in 'nondescript offices', as opposed to what?

"You will never defeat us" is a very funny thing to say after you've just bailed everyone who was involved in whatever the fuck this was

All five men arrested in RAF base plot are British nationals
The five men who were arrested and subsequently released on bail are all British citizens, home secretary Shabana Mahmood has just told the Labour party conference.

She adds that the scene is “now safe” and the residents living near to the RAF base are now able to return home.

“Let this be a reminder: you will never defeat us,” he says.

People talk about how transphobic, ableist, sexist and racist British media is, and don't get me wrong, they're right to do so, but not enough people understand WHY. It's because it is an incestuous hive of cronyism and nepotism shot through with abject corruption.

this isn't conjecture. This is the EXACT reason why one of the quickest ways to shut down a fash with a camera is to start shouting: "this video is brought to you by SquareSpace!" INSTANT demonitization. Because the streaming/social platforms already protect their advertisers more than the state.
