So this is in a new book coming out this week and I’ve never seen an entire graf devoted to extolling the virtues of respecting copyright

Is this new … and a response to AI? Or have publishers been doing this for a while and I just didn’t notice?

I think this is definitely a response to AI and entire books being stolen, regurgitated, and sold on platforms like Amazon, which is doing nothing to stop it.

Logan Square neighborhood, Chicago. Man wearing a balaclava in a white, unmarked vehicle, pulls the pin on a tear gas canister and tosses it in the road.

Don’t believe anyone who tells you that intelligence shows anything “without a doubt,” but even if the intelligence was water-tight, this strike was still murder. No law permits the deliberate, premeditated killing of civilians.

I've shared Eman's posts on Twitter and only just realized this is her. She's incredibly brave and true to her words. They need to release her and every protestor unlawfully detained.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov owns every arrest and act of violence against protesters this morning. He is aiding and abetting Operation Midway Blitz by allowing state cops to do this. He tells us to film ICE. His cops have shoved me around for filming this morning.

I cannot express enough how this is what has been happening for some time in Broadview. Federal agents assault, shoot chemical munitions at, and arrest protesters completely unprovoked.

And state police are now helping border patrol to combat and arrest protesters.

Great work everyone.

shawn @mulchy.bsky.social · 11d

moments ago: pandemonium.

a huge mass of border patrol agents, led by greg bovino, pushed the crowd of protesters and started grabbing people at random.

leading up to this, folks were just calmly standing in the grass, following isp’s orders.

multiple people detained. no clue how many.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

COVID affects the sense of smell and taste. Food tastes weird of flat and unapppetising. But yuh, keep up with the denial that even a "mild" infection doesn't have some form of chronic and permanent repercussions.

I lost my sense of taste and smell for 2 years, and no thongs smell and taste off.

OKSOTHICK. @sayitaintsoph.bsky.social · 21d

Anyone else kinda grossed out at the taste of food lately? Not all of it but a lot of food taste mass produced and it’s turning me off

I had said that Hollywood was returning back to its very white male centered conservative ways and that we'd get more films and ahows reflecting this with more political narratives served to a very specific angle, than seen the last several years.
