Local man shocked system designed to reward psychopaths now run by psychopaths.

#capitalism #fascism

Public service announcement: this is *not* a dire wolf.

It is a genetically modified grey wolf made to resemble an extinct species, so a bullshit company can raise more money for their bullshit projects.

#Deextinction is a scam on so many levels I don't even know where to begin. It will *not* help us save endangered species. Instead, we should spend our money on preserving their habitats *before* they go extinct.

The UK's murder prediction AI will create a dangerous, criminalising loop.

This tech repackages flawed police data as neutral. Then replicates itself.

The existing over-policing of racialised, low income and migrant communities will be hardwired into police operations.

We need #SafetyNotSurveillance

Hi I just read the following data point and now I’m angry so you need to read it and be angry too:

“During the pandemic, governments instituted eviction moratoriums, deployed emergency rental assistance, expanded unemployment assistance and the Child Tax Credit, and issued cash directly to millions of lower-income Americans.

IN EFFECT, POVERTY DROPPED BY 45%.”

(Screamy caps my emphasis not theirs)

So not only do we KNOW what works, we have data to support it working HERE.

"She may have registered fake assistant jobs to steal EUR 4,800,000 from the EU via fictional salaries, but I agree with her politically, so just like Donald Trump she must not be held accountable!"

It really is that simple.

Another BBC classic headline.

“Nurse left out of tea round given £41,000 payout”

“Left out of tea round” is doing a lot of work there given it’s actually “three years of sustained workplace bullying”.

I'm wondering what domain to buy for my word puzzle site. What do people think would work?

lol

For those of you who have a high-volume input channel and, recently, software offering to summarize it with AI… Do you summarize much/at all?

[Maybe boost for reach, really interested in the result here.]
