Wild story: A mystery buyer purchased The Hook, a Charlottesville newspaper, and scrubbed it from the internet. The buyer seemed particularly interested in erasing stories about one rape accusation from 19 years ago (the accused was my classmate at UVA...) https://t.co/1wGDA5XjFA

tbh i could kiss billy zane for this professional no bullshit answer about the "improvised" table flip

good way to tell that this is a good idea

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

If @NYTimesGuild members don't have a deal soon, we’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Pull out a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.

Do you know who Shudu is? I just found out—she’s the first AI model. She’s been “hired” across the industry which means her creators, white men, NOT a Black woman, are the ones paid. And companies get to say they ran Black content without having to work with or hire Black people.

spotify wrapped used to be an email, but this former intern had the idea of turning it into an interactive story; spotify stole her idea without ever paying her for it

nah because this is the first time any of us are hearing about this movie. if you’ve got your first animated gay lead but you eschew all the usual marketing, then turn around and say “see no one likes ‘woke’ movies,” that is intentional evil

This guy tried to pay for a handjob with a horse.

Aaron Swartz would have been 36 today.

Aaron committed suicide after being sentenced to 35 years in prison by US authorities for transferring and sharing scientific articles from JSTOR.

Student Aid approving my debt relief application but telling me the courts are blocking Biden’s program.

[Joy Henderson @Joyhenderson78]

What I don't get about white veganism is that they see plants as not living, not sentient beings. Indigenous and eurocentric science has proven this wrong a million times. We are just as connected with plants as we are with animals, and both are worthy of respect.

[🔻WitchyTwitchy 🇵🇸 @witchytwitchytv]

Since @Twitch again ignored requests to feature streamers for Native American Heritage month, we decided to put something together ourselves.

From Tlingit to Diné, here are just a few of the indigenous creators you can find on Twitch 🎉

Milwaukee Police Department (MPD) molested 74 (SEVENTY FOUR) Black men. Those are just the ones that came forward. No other Race/Ethnicity of men came forward. Listen to them describe the details.

One interesting thing from Marvel's kind of cynical diversity initiatives is how they expose how white supremacy has affected people of color everywhere. They chose a dark skinned Asian for Shang Chi and now this man for Namor and each time the colorists have came for them.

The widely shared claim that the Iranian regime has committed to executing 15,000 detained protesters is not true. Please stop sharing it. The Iranian regime is horrific, brutal and ruthless as it actually is. There's no need to make up stories.

Elon Musk may want to do his homework before mouthing off to Ed Markey.

This was…not a wise move. To say the least.

Picket line means ⚠️🙅🏻don't cross🙅🏻⚠️‼️
STRIKE STARTS 11/10

[Ash J @AshAgony]

Aaron Swartz set up a computer to download academic articles from JSTOR b/c he believed knowledge should be freely available to poor/working class people, not held for ransom. The state hounded & tried to put him in a cage for this until Aaron died by suicide. #NeverForget

[Steve Krenzel @stevekrenzel]

With Twitter's change in ownership last week, I'm probably in the clear to talk about the most unethical thing I was asked to build while working at Twitter.
