Look at this ancient old idiot sticking his head in the sand and pretending he doesn't know that all the people he works with daily share these beliefs and he's doing nothing to stop them.

Sickening. Revolting. Vile. This makes you want to throw up.

This is the kind of garbage that the worst kind of people say when they think nobody is watching.

And where are Republican leaders from Trump on down condemning these comments swiftly and unequivocally!?

I’m waiting to hear it.

A headline from POLITICO reads: "‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat"

I repeat: these Meta Ray-Ban perverts should be mercilessly and ruthlessly bullied and excluded from society.

Good. Even if this doesn’t work, it’s time to go on offense.

i def don’t go out of my way if people seem introverted or don’t wanna talk for sure, (fyi tho in my experience a lot of people perceive themselves as more awkward than they are actually being slash also everyone is a little awkward)

no point in doing counterexamples guys, they don’t care. the truth is you should not have to prove you are famous or special enough to deserve to be here. this is straight up nazi shit and they are doing racist pogroms about it in my city.

Trump on immigrants: "They send up their worst people. They send up people that are criminals. They send up people from jails. And the best ones they send are people that don't work very hard and that are on a social form of welfare."

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Sam Altman went from “AI will cure cancer" to "ChatGPT porn" in less than a month

ChatGPT boss predicts when AI could cure cancer

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

there was a popular take on tiktok a few months back that was like “actually if you want to do small talk with an employee, you’re an ableist monster forcing them to do emotional labor” but idk it was a nice break from monotony and rude people i think

i know small talk is a divisive concept but it really improves my day to have a nice moment with a stranger and i also felt like that when i was still working in retail tbh

if you were writing it properly it wouldn't even be accented lol he added the accent bc people were uncomfortable (i personally don't like the idea of telling somebody how they have to refer to themselves bc it isn't a slur in spanish)

“Immigration and Customs Enforcement alone accounted for roughly 1,400 of those arrests, most of them administrative — not criminal — detentions. That means people were seized for civil violations such as overstaying visas or entering the country without authorization, not for violent offenses.”

Trump's Crackdown Turns Immigrant Workers Into Targets

New statistics reveal that many of the arrests made during the "crime emergency" in D.C. were immigration-related, not violent crimes.

my guess is they have arrest quotas to meet so they’re just arresting everybody regardless of legality to look like they’re doing something

A suggestion I have for people who want to read 1 article is to see if it’s available through your library. Different library systems have access to different things, but there’s a lot more available through library websites than people realize!

When I think of A.I. I think of asbestos. To begin with everyone thought Asbestos was amazing, folk used it in everything. Then they started learning it was dangerous, research was done, they stopped using it, thou for some the damage was already done. Stop using A.I and limit the damage it's doing.
