I said a few days ago that RFK Jr. was advancing a stealth campaign to ban vaccination in the US.

That campaign is accelerating, & it ain't that stealthy.

I'll have more to say about this soon, but for now, just take this in: the US under RFK Jr.'s reign of error is about to kill a lot of kids. 1/

You shouldn’t have to present your ID, credit card info, or face to be scanned just to access your favorite sites, news, or games yet this is the growing reality for Internet users globally. We need a firestorm to take down online ID checks for good-- so we planned one. Join us for a week of action!

A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.

I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?
Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

We are actually doing something. DON'T STOP CALLING.
Morale at paypros call centers is in the toilet right now. It’s not just normal Black Friday stress, they’re being pounded. Corporate is pressuring bosses to end the paypros call campaigns. Source familiar w/ internals at MC stressed that folks should stand their ground but be kind to agents (1)

Welp, we finally found the one dub to beat the 4Kids Sonic X dub as the worst dub of all time.

And it took GenAI to get there. Whoop de doo!
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

You WILL make or break someone’s furry convention experience by doing this

Keep making calls!

This whole weekend from the 27th to monday the 1st needs to have Visa and Mastercard SWAMPED

We need to send the message that we will fuck with their bottom dollar unless they quit targetting adult content creators and sex workers!
Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.

Hey all. My friend in the Seattle area, Sybil, is about to be thrown out on the streets in December.

She's been homeless before, but doesn't have a warm car to sleep in anymore. She has one cat. She's disabled.

Please help her if you can house her for even a little bit.
Lol. Lmao even.
I knew I was right not to get my hopes up.

Next week I'm gonna be homeless.
Happy birthday to me.
Birthday coming up next month. This time of year has always been hard for me. Very few birthdays have I actually enjoyed. Hoping this'll be one of them.

This is Christmas rather than Thanksgiving, but last year when cooking the pork it got so tender that the whole pig literally fell apart right before we were going to get it out of the cooking apparatus. Part of it even went onto the charcoal for a second!
yes, hello, I would like to place an order for everyone’s funniest stories of holiday food-related family grudges / drama / chaotic incidents / lore
