Remember that the orange haze, the wildfires, the evacuations, the destroyed lives, the incinerated cities, your own personal respiratory distress after being forced against your will to smoke an entire forest

This was foisted on you to enrich a vanishingly small minority; it was never necessary

The fossil fuel industry knew about this since the 50's and covered it up like tobacco companies and lung cancer

Don't forget, don't forgive

Your anger is justified; direct it at those responsible

Hey @nprofile1q...

I've sent you bug reports several times for some usability bugs and some extremely serious safety bugs

None of them have been acted on

I've sent them through your support form on your website and pinged you on here as well

Is there a way to send these in a manner that will be taken seriously?

Dirty hippie leftie idea: Things could be good, actually

Accepting preorders for my new self-help book:

Kittens are from Qo'nos, Puppies are from Betazed

Solidarity with trans friends in USA today :/

I kind of love the anti-data centre movement

We never got to vote on whether AI got shoved down our collective throats

The extractive class decided that for us, and the disappointing centrists in government obeyed

But if your local city council is discussing it or something, this is one of the few places where regular people can actually throw some sand in the gears of industry that are crushing us all

Here's my manifesto

Everyone deserves a good life and the better-off should make sacrifices that enable this for the less well-off

No one should have that much power over anyone else

Basically all my politics boil down to one of these two principles (which admittedly conflict sometimes but I'm not that worried about it tbh)

But also these commitments make me some sort of "dirty hippie leftie" and my ideas are "too extreme to be taken seriously"

If the NDP came out as the national "Fuck AI" party of Canada, there would be such an orange wave

Imagining the world we could be living in if the best tech oriented minds of our time hadn't all been siphoned off into making better adtech for the last quarter century or so

Concept: Sam Altman being tried for his crimes with the same fury and hate and the same legal firepower that was applied to Aaron Swartz

Concept: a Masto filter to hide quote posts

I don't need the dunk format

Concept: potable water as a human right
