Coming back a little to bsky, I know I've been pretty quiet-- a lot is going on right now, in the country and the world. I'm a visibly trans/queer person so shit is scary. I don't use bsky much outside of lurking and mentioning work stuff, but I am here. You are here. That's enough. Deep breaths.

I actually can and will judge people who are using environmentally devastating technology built on mass theft to create a fictional partner who does nothing but tell how great they are.

It is firmly in the “somebody’s making an active decision to downplay this” territory.
I count 49 news headlines on the NYT mobile app home page right now, not including opinion, sports or cooking. None of them are about the massive protests yesterday.

Good warning.
I had a dude try VERY hard to get me to sign this. Was deceptive about the topic and cagey about who was behind it.

If you’re in LA in a public space this month and someone tries to get you to sign a petition about wages and voting DO NOT SIGN IT.
this is businesses trying to repeal an ordinance that increases wages for workers in hospitality spaces ahead of the Super Bowl, World Cup, & Olympics.
Do not sign!

If you're heading to a protest tomorrow, it's important to know your rights. Consult this information from the ACLU.
Be peaceful. Be safe. Be careful. Be strong.

Guys. I'm in LA. I'm going to a variety show tonight across town. There are not riots happening. There are peaceful protests being fired upon.
Peaceful means nonviolent hut it does not mean sedate. No rioting, no looting is happening. LA is protecting neighbors.

I want to report some good news from LA:
ICE picked a hotel in Pasadena to be their headquarters for this side of the city. The residents of Pasadena (myself included) would not stand for this and protested all yesterday in front of the hotel until, eventually, the hotel kicked out ICE!!

If you use AI you’re accelerating climate crisis, polluting deprived communities, burning through water, giving bosses excuses to reduce workers rights and wages. It’s a moral and ethical degradation.
A researcher calculates that, without increased production, AI will consume up to 82 terrawatt-hours of electricity this year—around the same as the annual electricity consumption of Switzerland.
AI Is Eating Data Center Power Demand—and It’s Only Getting Worse
A new analysis of AI hardware being produced and how it is being used attempts to estimate the vast amount of electricity being consumed by AI.

look, I don’t have much positive to say about jobs right now. but growing your creative skills is never a waste. in a world that prioritizes “good enough for non-experts” and the simulacra of competence, growing a practice of critical and artistic thought helps you from sliding down into the muck.

So you’re saying we could solve all the financial problems of 379 million of us and impact just 19 households. What an interesting fact. Fun little bit of trivia.
The 19 richest U.S. households saw a $1 trillion wealth increase in 2024, a rise that exceeds the size of Switzerland’s economy.
These 19 households now control $2.6 trillion in wealth — almost as much wealth as the bottom 50% of American households.
If this isn't an oligarchy, what is?
