I understand this view but I think we should consider the implications of preemptively giving up charging a criminal with crimes because the jury may not convict

dc statehood is non-negotiable after trump's actions in his second term. republicans despise the people of the city that hosts them, and there is little reason to think that, now that the seal is broken on treating them as an occupied population, a next republican president will be more restrained

I genuinely mean this. I cannot imagine a more bleak dystopian notion than the idea of all art being turned into slop designed to coddle my exact perceived intentions. The point of literature, film, music, and art is to be exposed to the interior lives of others. Who are these people.

This comes a bit out of nowhere, and is for a VERY limited audience, but highly recommend that for any indie film makers out there, you include language in your contract that there is a path to buying back or regaining your film after a certain amount of time. It’s my one regret with MUTE.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. ICE’s unchecked power won’t rein itself in. If we want real oversight, accountability, and an end to intimidation tactics that target vulnerable communities, we have to demand it—loudly and publicly. Abolish ICE.

How fast will this come to a public school near you
A U.S. charity in Gaza is worried that teachers at its schools might stray from a curriculum it says promotes peace and tolerance, so it plans to record classroom conversations and use artificial intelligence to flag speech deemed “hateful” or “inciting.”

The plans laid out by the founder of the Gaza Children Village in a webinar last month have elicited ethical, safety and privacy concerns from some Palestinian and advocacy groups and at least one of the charity’s partners.

There is no indication the charity intends to share its classrooms’ recordings with anybody else, but fears about the potential misuse of surveillance technology are heightened in Gaza after three years of war. The Israeli military has used AI to sift through intercepted communications and find suspicious speech, including to identify targets for strikes.

Why would we let Anthropic decide this for us? If you ascribe to a moral philosophy or religion that disavows being mean to a toaster, that is fine. It is not however fine for a tech company to make, functionally, a moral law for a talking word toaster that is promised to rule us one day.

We absolutely should be horrified by reports of planned public executions and see them as an overt re-embrace of spectacle lynchings--while also understanding that the story of the "modern" death penalty in this country is inextricable from that history, rooted in racial violence & white supremacy.

There were so many anti-solidaristic tendencies in the Trump 1 era. Call-out culture, appeals to oppression hierarchies, social blackmail. Identity is fundamental to collective liberation which is why it was so jarring to see it used explicitly for the purpose of hurting your comrades

there was a really amazing window in which many people who had never considered otherwise began thinking about the way race interfaced with all aspects of their social and material lives that sadly soon got undercut by the grifter motive of “making white people spend money to absolve their guilt“

An important corollary to the Surf Dracula tweet that I think should be talked about more, now that we're basically inundated with these types of shows, is that most of them don't get renewed, but even the ones that are don't turn into the weekly adventures of Surf Dracula in the second season.
Screenshot of a tweet from user @topherfluence: "back in the day if u did a tv show called surf dracula you'd see that fool surfing every week in new adventures but in the streaming era the entire 1st season gotta be a long ass flashback to how he got the surfboard until you finally get ot see him surf for 5 min in the finale"
