chat gpt only functions because of the labor of africans who were paid as little as $2/day and one chat gpt query releases 50-90x the emissions of a google search so i don’t think chatgpt gets *enough* hate actually

Does anyone have that recent study that determined all 8 billion of us could be easily housed and fed with only 30% of the current global labor output and that our collective suffering is manufactured by capitalism

Because it altered my brain chemistry

Vaccines do not cause autism and this has been proven over and over and over again.

One fake study by a now former physician with manipulated data is not going to ever change this fact.

Vaccines do not cause autism.

It's actually so simple ....

The thing about leopards is eventually they will eat you too.

Your favorite local restaurant closing because the nice family who owns it getting deported. You thought they were some of the “good ones.” The price of produce skyrocketing even before the camps are built as immigrants flee. Your daughter dying of sepsis because the lawyers feel it’s too risky to perform that D&C.

No more FAFSA for your kids college because you didn’t know that was part of the Department of Education. Veterans having their benefits cut because they rolled back the PACT Act as too expensive. That factory in town that was going to build chips and employ your kids never breaking ground because of the repeal of the CHIPs act. The bridge that was going to cut your commute in half being canceled because of the repeal of the Infrastructure Act.

That sweet government job that you’ve loved because you can work 8 hours a day and fish on the weekends has been slated for a MAGA Schedule F slot because it controls funding for contracts that will go to Republican donors, so you’re fired without cause or any union protections.

You’ll blame Biden or the local Democrats probably. But it will be fine because Elon promised it would be uncomfortable at first but it will get better. You were just so sure it would be uncomfortable for…you know…”those people.” Not you.

But that’s leopards for you. They eat whatever is available.

Some people seem to have forgotten how bad a president Trump was, so I made a list of the 100 Worst Things About the Trump Presidency, in no particular order. Please share and add anything I missed. 🧵

[Ally Sammarco @Ally_Sammarco]

To all my fellow white women: We are not letting a rapist win over the first female president (again).

Now let’s get to work. Thank you.

As a reminder Kamala Harris did not lock up a single Black male for weed possession. And incarceration under her tenure dropped.

Feel free to share this video any time a liar appears.

Sonya Massey should be alive today.

[𝕊𝕦𝕟𝕤𝕙𝕪𝕟𝕖 ✨🦋 @6RoundknockOWT]

Remember yall, we’re not just voting for a person.

We’re voting for an entire administration.

And potentially 3 Supreme Court seats.

It’s bigger than her. So much bigger.

[Leah Goodridge @leahfrombklyn]

Yet another Black woman who called police for help has been shot + killed by them.

36-year old Sonya Massey called 911 around 1 A.M. b/c of an intruder.

Police arrived. They killed Sonya.

Though her family is demanding police release the bodycam footage, they're refusing to.

[Emily Galvin-Almanza @GalvinAlmanza]

You may have heard the term “Project 2025” floating around, and you may even have cracked open the 900+ page document yourself, only to see a lot of kind of bland, policy-wonk text. So let me crack through the policy-speak and tell you WTF is in this document.

[alan @alaneherr4sure]

When I was injured and in a wheelchair last year, my job (USA) said no to me working from home full-time. Getting from my home to work was a struggle enough, but also the elevator closest to my cubicle was broken and none of the building’s handicap door openers worked. 😀👍

After 21 days of sick leave, I'm to return to work on Friday; my boss is like "nah. Your doctor gotta recommend more days. you're not in a position to work." (I'm still in a cast for the next month or so).
I'm skeptical of this so I called HR and they were like...
