if your articles are being shared positively by Jesse Singal, you're probably not actually doing the work in support of trans people as much as you think you are! (this is about the new The Needle hit piece about Erin Reed)

A forgotten media moment from earlier this year was that Olivia Reingold embedded with ICE agents in Minnesota and never wrote about what it was like because doing so would turn Free Press readers into No Kings marchers.

I am not the first to say this and I hope I’m not the last. Misogyny is the root of a lot of evils. When men are unhappy or unfulfilled, women suffer. When men are afraid or angry, women suffer. What are we going to do about this endless cycle? What are all the Good Men going to do? art by me

Recently, I did a wonderful interview with the indefatigable @emilystjams.bsky.social about trans people's online information environment and why there are very strong incentives to spread panic. It was a wide-ranging discussion that I think is more relevant than ever.

I've long thought LLMs are like the pool of Narcissus. Not entirely, but it seems their deepest, most essential, function. The arrogance that is implied, let alone the loss of serendipity, of solidarity, in 'personal music' is striking when you step back. 'I know everything already'.

“Why shouldn’t I custom-generate all of my child’s media?” Because the point of children’s literature, music, art, and movies is not to optimize leisure time, it is to provide your children with cultural, emotional, societal, and epistemic touch points via which they can relate to the wider world.

@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes

atp you shouldnt be reacting to the first-order content of any publication by any major media outlet. you should be considering second-order effects: why did they publish this. what is this meant to cause or make me feel and who is it benefitting. take nothing in the news at face value

The worst part about twitter is there are a number of people who think they have to be active there who are left-leaning but have had their brains absolutely cooked by the site. You can't inundate yourself in exposure to that stuff without it having an impact on you.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵
