Flock exposed training materials and a panel which tracked what its AI annotators were working on. It showed that Flock, which has cameras in thousands of U.S. communities, is using overseas workers. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

The presidential pardon power is literally, intentionally, an end run around the entire democractic process and rule of law to allow one asshole to pardon all his corrupt friends. That's what it's *for*, that's what it's always been *for*, and god fuck this country.

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

She is literally rewriting the Bible & Christ's teaching of compassion & empathy, trying to make him out as some harsh disciplinarian. You know who does this stuff? Cults. Literal cults.

Lack of empathy is a hallmark of sociopathy.

"If nothing else, I want us to focus on what we can do right now, as individuals, to make our kids’ lives and ours easier on a day-to-day basis: treating our kids with acceptance and love, which is what all kids deserve." #neurodiversity #autism #parenting
Autistic and other disabled people have always been and likely will always be part of our societies, and are valuable human beings who deserve unqualified love, acceptance, and access to supports. Truth from an older article, since I don't write so much anymore:
