This is a very good look at the state of the AI industry's economics.

TLDR: You move to porn and ads when you're out of monetizable ideas. There's very little profit happening, just internal players moving money around to stimulate growth and juice market confidence. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8ACEKqr/

And had they known the show was ending, they had basically the perfect ending in that episode. Where Regan says fuck it and vaporizes her memories and chooses to be with the man she loves.

They're still technically a thing until July 2026. But I don't know if it's doing anything worse than what else is happening.

Ah. So they're cowards too. They believe the law is unjust but refuse to do anything about it.

We have a teaching in Judaism that "you are not required to complete the task but neither are you free to desist from it."

We're in a fight where each inch of success allows the next folks to fight for their inch. We do what we can, give ourselves & each other grace, & keep fighting. In frog suits.

🧵I do my noncooperation threads bc I know most of it gets lost in the news firehose. I know courage is contagious & that we have to en-courage each other.

And/but: We're at the stage of the fight where wins are small & often temporary. Each small win matters, &/but it may be like this for years.

Stories of failed arrests due to community response are inspiring. There's been great legal work to free people, too. But this stuff is mostly a brief flash of unmarked cars, and then somebody's gone. Over and over again. No matter how many people are eager to help and want better than this.

I've been working through the Silent Witch light novels. She's a witch who is so shy, due to horrible abuse, that she used her mathematical genius to come up with a way to not say a chant to use magic.
