It’s obviously extremely easy to hurt men’s tender feelings when we talk about rape culture (we’re talking about them or their buddies after all) but what will it take to make them feel afraid?

Anti Jewish violence is real and horrific. Being a victim of this violence is not the quotidian experience of most Jewish people right now. Encouraging Jewish people to live in terror when they are not actually in danger is deeply manipulative and is used to manufacture consent for genocide

How are you calling 12,000 words a "novelette"?? no.

If you want to support your favourite author, but don't have the money to buy their books, most libraries have a Recommend a Purchase" link somewhere on their website. Or a "Notify me if the library purchases this title" option in their catalogue, which tells staff that there is interest.

The media is desperate to find some reason why Elon Musk's politics are complicated or more sophisticated than they seem, because the simple truth is too ugly for them to admit - an actual Nazi is the world's wealthiest person, and his companies hold substantial American government contracts.

Reminder that an LLM is not a research tool, database, or search engine no matter how many dipshit tech bros tell you otherwise.

I was born and raised in Northern Ontario and I am absolutely boiling with rage at the ways in which people elsewhere are talking about the forest fires there as though this is a common occurrence. The air thick with smoke for kilometers, entire communities wiped out - this shit is not normal.

Remember that a lot of medications, including antidepressants, make you far more susceptible to heat stroke. You don't need to compare yourself to other people if you're feeling bad. Everyone's chemistry is different. The main comparison should be to YOUR normal.

Another round-up of social justice minded Canadian jobs! Usual caveat applies which is that I don't work for these organizations. These just came across my desk as someone who works contract to contract and I want to amplify because I know jobs in progressive spaces are hard to find!

Give me your favourite Non-Trek performance from a Star Trek actor. There are so many great answers in the thread but mine, hands down, is Jeri Ryan's occasional guest villain appearances on Major Crimes. (Second pick would be her Leverage guest appearances.)
Screengrab from cop show Major Crimes: Jeri Ryan on one side of a table in a police station, facing Mary McDonnell and two of her cop squad on the other sideScreengrab from tv show Leverage: Jeri Ryan and Timothy Hutton walking down a street, at night, in slightly eccentric formal wear. She is shooting him a deeply skeptical look as he talks.

White people have literally been 'recording' the suffering of people Black and Brown people for centuries. It has not resulted in any relief for those communities while white people give each other awards and accolades for capturing the most traumatizing moments of people's lives.

I personally think not safe to remain in any personal relationship with anyone who is using LLMs to analyze your relationship, make conclusions about your motives, or determine how to treat you. I think this is beyond red flag—it should be an immediate dealbreaker.

At some point the conversation we had about how much of tech was stalkerware has to intersect with how AI usage has validated stalkers. And I know that sounds circular but this is the ouroboros of much of modern surveillance tech. It can be used against anyone but it is often rooted in misogyny

*sigh* If your Kickstarter video/image is AI, I won't back it. If your book has an AI cover, I won't read it. If you're a public supporter of AI use for creative work, I will unfollow you. I cannot stress enough how offensive I find AI use in the arts. It is outright theft, it is lazy, it is gross.

All Republican/conservative policy is fear based fantasy. Immigrant crime being a problem is a FANTASY. Anti-trans laws are based on FANTASIES. Iran being any sort of real threat to the US is a FANTASY. Republicans rely on the dumbest adults basically being afraid of the dark.

the goal of this press tour is clearly on behalf of the show, trying to sway lib audiences on the fence that it’s ok to watch this horseshit if you publicly decry how bad it is at the same a marketing campaign targeted squarely at cowards who somehow don’t have better things to watch

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

If you don't count the dubiously-canonical Trek novelizations I grew up on, then: Buffy, on private archive sites whose names I can't remember. I was 19-20ish and deeply depressed, and fic became a lifeline.
