NEW: Democratic Congress member Ritchie Torres is introducing legislation in Congress to regulate digital video game ownership.
"A game that can be taken away the moment a company pulls the plug is not a purchase. It is a rental disguised as a sale."

I think a lot about the billions of dollars that are poured into making the average person hate trans people, and how so many liberals will look you dead in the eye, and insist that they can't do anything until you get out there and "win hearts and minds."

It's the oldest ruling class play in human history — divide and conquer. Take a look at the group you want to subjugate, split them into two, conquer the weaker half with the help of the stronger half, then split again and again until there's no one left strong enough to fight you

They started on illegal immigrants, expanded it to legal immigrants, now are going after naturalized citizens. If you are not one of those groups, you are just somewhere further down the chain, but they will get to eliminating your rights eventually too.

#OtD 14 Oct 1977 anti-gay crusader Anita Bryant was "pied" by Thom Higgins, a gay rights activist. She then began praying and burst into tears. Following a boycott, she lost her job as brand ambassador for Florida orange juice. More LGBT+ history here: workingclasshistory.com/tag/lgbtq/

The only people who think book banning is good publicity are authors who sell so many copies they wouldn't notice. Okay, cool, the ban didn't sink Stephen King's career? Try interviewing a queer author whose book hasn't hit four digits.
Posting this because there’s a misconception that being challenged/banned is good publicity that’ll boost sales. In my experience, the opposite is true.

Really looked at the reactions to this from authors and went, “Ah, surely the problem is that we did not say enough words about our soft-handed stance on AI.”
We understand the strength of feeling this AI Charter has provoked & that more explanation is needed.
We will publish a blog tomorrow detailing why, in a vacuum of regulation, this charter demands more transparency & accountability from organisations on how they are using AI now and in the future.
