What gets me is that fanfic/fanart creators have been talking about the subject of getting dogpiled, harassed, and pressured *for so many years now* about making dark/unsettling content, and let nobody listened to the canary in the coal mine because “stupid fandom drama”
alternatively we as a society could realize that fiction is about playing with dolls and that horrible things happening to them doesn't matter because it's all toys.
but that seems more complicated than just bringing back big box PC games and publishing books alongside them

the economy is understimulated because people aren't buying things
to counter this, we should stimulate the economy with stimulus checks
in order to bring stability, we should keep doing it consistently, perhaps every month, for every person, universally
it's quite basic really

somewhere there’s a #izzyhands who gets to share lazy kisses that taste like too-sweet tea and slightly burned oatmeal cookies. slow mornings-he gets to make a fool of himself, warm in his cozy slippers, murmuring silly nonsense and quiet promises. ed smells like their body wash

My hottest take:
I do not think that fictional characters should have human rights. There is, in fact, no limit to what should be allowed to happen to them, on account of them being not real and imaginary.

Speaking as the president of an NGO and as a trans woman: when orgs decide to abandon a group, to sacrifice them, it is not that group’s job to “understand how hard it would have been to fight.”
If trans people hope to survive, it is our job to make that abandonment costly as hell.
Make them hurt.

it's wild how the positive use cases are like "save 5 minutes reading a long doc" and "write a generic email faster" and the negative use cases are "get encouraged to dive deeper in psychosis, misogyny, or suicidal thoughts" and we're still on the fence about overall value
New from 404 Media: ChatGPT told a violent stalker to continue running his misogynistic and threat-filled podcast despite the “haters,” and to visit more gyms to find women. The man stalked women in multiple states, including touching and following from work

You were a kid. It was your job to be an imperfect work in progress. They were the adult. It was their job not to take your imperfection personally. The fact that they weren't up to that job isn't your fault-- you COULDN'T have done your parents' job for them if you'd wanted to.

An easy way to explain luddites:
Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.
And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.
That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.
