This suicide prevention month I’m resharing one of my favorite articles on being passively suicidal. Really reframed my experience and gave me more ability to talk about it. If this is you, you’re not alone:

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

of course this tweet has attracted all the sad and lonely twitter eboys who will NEVER understand how this feels and who continue to compare it to being toxic.
i experience misogyny on this game on a daily basis, casually and not so casually. most of the time brushing off the cliche and predictable language used towards me on a silly, colourful, goofy video game JUST because some men are too emotional or insecure or threatened by my presence and refuse to share a space they feel entitled to.
i have no issue with people talking shit to me, i am always down to beef and give back what people put out. i will never get toxic first and put my everything into playing a fair and good game, always trying my hardest to win and communicate....
HOWEVER i do not agree responding/standing up for yourself against misogyny/homophobia/racism etc are the same as just someone being toxic/being toxic back. these are things we live and deal with on a daily basis and are dealing with literal crimes being committed towards certain minorities currently and historically. we have every right to stand up for ourselves AND get frustrated by the system literally penalising you for it and letting the instigator get off lightly. some of you men will never understand this as you have never experienced this or felt this, you'll only compare it to what you DO understand and that is sad. please go and watch documentaries and read books and educate yourselves on other peoples lives and how they are impacted by your actions.
if you, in 2026 cannot be creative with your insults and still choose to use language that is harmful and has greater underlying connotations in a period of time where crime against women is at an all time high, you are the problem and you do not deserve any respect or silence/muting from me. you will hear what i have to say and you wont like it.
Goosebumps! People often ask, is Shakespeare still relevant? Here is a great example, from the Steven Colbert Show, in which Sir Ian McKellen delivers an extraordinary speech. Shakespeare’s words are timeless, urgent and important.

This is not a dire wolf. They cannot do de-extinction. They can just tweak living animals to have primitive features. This company is going to make designer zoo animals. They will be isolated, lonely, and a shadow of their loving relatives. Real scientists support conservation.
my honest belief is that if you keep harping about this after it has been explained to you, and you clutch your pearls over someone not wearing a suit, and you attach morality to clothing, you're a bit stupid.
Dr Ally Louks is in the building.
Cambridge PhD student Dr @DrAllyLouks from @Peterhouse_Cam went viral last year when she posted a photo of her thesis on the politics of smell in modern and contemporary prose.
Here's her story about what happened next 👇
“If you don’t want men to objectify you, why do you objectify yourself?”
I don’t. I am a woman who is also a sexual being, and openly expressing my sexuality doesn’t make me an object. Making suggestive art doesn’t make me an object. If me portraying sexuality makes you view me as less of a person, that is not my problem lol
