Wednesday is TRANSPHOBES ARE TRASH DAY!

Congratulations to those who celebrate this wonderful day.

Also, every other day is also Transphobes are Trash Day, I forgot to mention that.

Call me a scold, but I feel the most appropriate way to support a local cartoonist after their publisher threw them under a bus to appease a foreign state’s local lobbying arm is to share the original work which includes said artist’s name, not a garbage AI “reframing” which removes that attribution

If the victims had been *anyone* other than muslims we’d have had the report injected directly into our eyes and ears within minutes, with today’s breakfast news shows live broadcasting from different eastern Sydney cafes to provide rolling updates on the respective owners’ feels.
On Saturday, an imam and his wife were allegedly victims of a violent hate crime — forced off the road by another car, with attackers then getting out to assault the imam/threaten his wife.

ANIC put out a statement on Sunday arvo, noting rising islamophobia.

The media is just getting to it now.

Following marginalized voices makes you smarter and better informed than a million hours of consuming any Murdoch-owned news media.

🚨Nine Jewish groups are urging the Government to reject Jillian Segal's "Antisemitism Report", saying it's an attack on Australia's "democracy" and "freedoms" – benefitting the state of Israel.

Segal must be given zero powers, they warn. Explosive...

AI Bro from yesterday blocked me. I get that he was upset that people mocked his profession and said it was bad and useless.

Even our tiny business making silly beers is affected by this shit. We work with, and loudly give credit to, actual human artists who come up with incredible, original works for our can labels, so it’s beyond depressing when someone asks “ooh did you use AI?” like we should be proud if we had.
This really sucks, and we are underestimating the massive demand for AI-free *anything* out there. It's a massive cultural, political and business opportunity, though one that'll require effort and the skills of old-school journalism, verification and fact-checking
Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

This is what the media should show. Messages of unity & hope from survivors. Despite that it’s not the answer this Sky News journo was seeking. #auspol #Bondi

An AI generated the “Edward Crabtree” lie. An AI absorbed it. An AI spread it. The Bondi attack reveals the risk of AI chatbots eating their own tails, @cameronwilson.bsky.social reports.
Bondi lie peddled by Elon Musk's AI chatbot shows the future of our AI-poisoned information ecosystem
In the hours after the Bondi Beach mass shooting, AI misinformation began to eat its own tail, with Musk's X bot absorbed and regurgitated in record time.

Sydney is my home and I’ll be lining up to give as much of my O- as possible as soon as I can.

If one man can put himself literally in the firing line to protect people he didn’t even know, we can all brave the cannula for a spell.

People are still just hanging on. Let’s roll up our sleeves.
Red Cross in Sydney, asking for blood donations.

If you’re due, today is a good day to go, or if you’ve been thinking about starting, do it now.

Employers, give people a little time off to donate.

Organise your social or work group to go together.

Do it today.

Hey so I’ve been lurking here since the invite days after ditching The Bad Place and taking a much needed posting break. Probs still won’t post much but may as well finally say hi.

I’m Rebel. I play roller derby, make beer, love old-school punk, and I fucking hate nazis.

Righto. Back to lurking.
