They see AI as valuable and moreso than any human life. We aren't worth the energy they burn, water they pollute or labor they steal. Ai is foundationally antisocial and inhumane.
Yesterday’s EPA decision makes it even more clear: we need urgent action now.
I’m calling on Verizon and AT&T to disclose the locations of these toxic lead cables and commit to robust testing so we can fix this problem once and for all.

🧵David Choe, actor on the @Netflix show 'Beef,' had previously spoken on a podcast about being "a successful rapist" - a direct quote. Choe successfully DCMA'd the original video post by @AuraBogado, but it is, of course, newsworthy and fair use to post.
David Choe wrote to Twitter to get the video I posted of him talking about the woman he says he raped taken down on copyright grounds.
He claims his *nonprofit* owns the copyright to the video of him talking about the alleged rape.
@rainylune The 2ft is really cute ngl, but a more practical rug size would prob be 3-4 ft radius-ish. The small 2ft would be great for cats or small dogs tho LOL
This movie is like super orientalist but despite it all it makes my heart soar that the protagonist getting darker skin by the end of the movie is portrayed as a good thing 🥺
my parents at 30: whew, we weren't expecting to have a third kid and a new car this year, but I think we can swing it
me at 30: I was not expecting to have to replace an extra lightbulb in my home this year and now financial ruin is upon me

We are in an age where so many hand crafts are being replaced or dying out.
So, I’m hoping to help Sayatt before his well deserved retirement.
Sayatt is hoping to pass down his craft.
If you are willing to learn, they are willing to teach.
(Below: custom frame he made me)
I’m hoping this reaches the right person
Wood carving is a dying art. I’m lucky enough to know one of the last living master carvers, Sayatt; in Hollywood CA. In 3 years, Sayatt will be retiring & shutting down his historic family business. Then that’s it.
