Thread - 1/7

7 reasons #AI is a tool of global domination and tech fascism.

1. Constant hallucinations which are factually incorrect but subtly interwoven with correct information, requiring expertise to spot. As a routinely used research tool, it undermines facts/truth - helpful for fascism.

I keep thinking about the stress expended by small sites responding to the Online Safety Act. Trying to make sense of unclear guidance and do their best, already thinking about user safety. And then I think about X deciding to openly generate masses of CSAM and the lack of action taken against them.

Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.

Glasgow you’ve got one more chance to see this really stunning dark, beautiful show. Then Edinburgh folks you’d be a fool to miss it at the Trav next week. So exciting to see this kind of work (and Shotput especially!) on main stages in Scotland

Stuntman unpacks action heroes, violence, and the rulebook of masculinity, one slow-mo move at a time.

Big red and blue text reads: ***** "A thoroughly exhilarating 60 minites that certainly pulls no punches" - The Recs. Below there are two male-presenting performers on a white stage lit with red and blue. One is upside down in a handstand using the other as a base, their arms linked, leaning away from each other

STUNTMAN is hitting the road this Autumn. Part dance, part theatre, part homage to explosive masculinity – don’t miss this genre-defying, high-octane performance on tour across the UK.

It's so easy for the actual human truth to be buried in the discourse, for our hearts to become inured, deadened under all the bluster and bullshit. "How dare he! Death? To the IDF? He is worse than a Nazi!" Meanwhile every person, child, innocent killed by the IDF is a real person, really now dead.

Mega chuffed for this show to be getting back out… and to ENGLAND of all places! Come see us, it’s fun and silly and good I think

At the end of the day, whoever you are, your position on all this comes down to one question: do you and can you understand Palestinians as fully human, as sharing equally and totally in your humanity?

"chants about death to particular groups" being in the IDF isn't a protected characteristic, dickheads

People always think I'm being ungenerous or misstating their views, but this is very explicitly what the "gender-critical" crowd says: Their *best case* against gender affirming care for kids is that the research says it works, but the research doesn't count.

(this is from the Cass report)

Reggie Watts statement, 1 of 2:

β€œI was disappointed to see that Thom's statement centers his hurt feelings and frames his fans' demands for him to speak up as a "social media witch hunt," instead of recognizing the urgency of their call for him to speak out against the world-historical humanitarian crisis in Palestine. I hope Thom will reflect and decenter himself from the public outcry against the genocide, because if he and his artistic legacy stand for love and humanity as he asserts, he can come to see his fans' actions as an act of loving solidarity with suffering people-a needed affirmation of our humanity in these dark times.”

Reggie Watts statement 2 of 2:

β€œI also want to address Thom's repetition of a common rhetorical tactic of those who are devoted to maintaining the status quo, that one cannot speak up or demand an end to the genocide unless they fully understand the deep
"complexity" of this historical conflict. I urge Thom's fans to reject this conviction-neutralizing, demobilizing sentiment and trust their hearts. You don't need to be a geopolitics scholar to know that starving children and slaughtering families is wrong. Your membership in the human family gives you authority and, indeed, responsibility to speak up. All positive change starts with conscious and loving people raising their voices and working together to bring a better world into existence. Please keep fighting until our sisters and brothers in Palestine are free.”

Sir Keir Starmer is set to publish a white paper next month setting out the government’s plans to cut net migration to Britain, with changes to the graduate visa route billed as an important part.

The move is part of his effort to head off the challenge to Labour from the rightwing Reform UK party.
