Did you know Buffalo, NY has a subway??

Sounds weird considering we’re a relatively small American city, but the metro line itself is even weirder, and if all goes according to plan it’s about to get downright inscrutable🧵

In case you haven't seen the PMG video about Palestine yet, I'd personally appreciate it if you did. And for those who are able, to donate to their fundraiser that ends in <24hrs

One day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Cutting off all communication to a population of 2.2 million is unacceptable. Journalists, medical professionals, humanitarian efforts, and innocents are all endangered.

I do not know how such an act can be defended. The United States has historically denounced this practice.

I am BEGGING YOU forget whatever other interests you want to talk about and tweet about the blackout in gaza. Now is not the time to ignore whats happening, your voice and pressure could help save lives. please help us out please

AI bros seem to be misunderstanding the point of Nightshade.

No, we aren’t trying to somehow stuff poison in your AI model datasets ourselves. We poison our own work. And if YOU choose to scrape our work, YOU poison your own dataset.

It’s a retaliation to you offending first.

The U.N. reports at least 42% of Gaza's housing units are damaged or destroyed. One-point-four million Gazans — or more than half of the territory's population — have been displaced.

The biggest issue with these timelines continues to be cumulative impact of task estimation. Stuff like crunch comes about because the best project managers in the world cannot possibly be expected to spotlessly plan 5 years. Constantly paying off time debt they can't catch up on

[Aesthetician Labs @aesthetic_labs]

Woah, today marks AeLa's 5th business birthday! 🤯🥹 What a wild ride!

Thanks, of course, to all the lovely folks who’ve been with us along the way. 🫶 Y’all know who you are, and there’s definitely too many of you to list in 1 tweet.

Here’s to another 5?! 🤞
