I'm so sorry I can't stop laughing. OpenAI, the company built on stealing literally the entire internet, is crying because DeepSeek may have trained on the outputs from ChatGPT. They're crying their eyes out. What a bunch of hypocritical little babies. Cry more, freaks.

The last few weeks have really highlighted just how fragile corporate social media is, and just how beholden to political power it is. To build any sort of ground-up power we must continue to invest in decentralized alternatives that are resistant to intervention

I’m down to like 3 apps I use sparsely for distraction and a couple (maps, weather, Venmo) I use out of necessity. This paragraph sums up how I’ve thought about myself the last few years. Great article by Zitron reminding ppl like me we are having a sane reaction to a predatory system.
