I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.
State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.

Time and again, companies make it clear they think they're owed access to us. They think it's their right to take our art, our writing, our photos, our actual identities, and use them for whatever purpose they want (including forcing AI features built on that theft into software against our wishes).
just needs a little IK for feet and it's perfect!
NBC News poll Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.

Lost my legendary diplomacy droid buddy DD-F6. Not over it but had to make sure their replacement memorialized them in some way
In the US we’re getting shitty Ring doorbells that will use AI to help hunt and kill us for noting being pro-fascism. In China they’re getting this.
worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
This is hilarious.
Also, completely enraging.
After revelations that companies like Ring have been selling home security footage to ICE, the most common defense of keeping a camera up seems to be, “But what if I’m stalked?”
And as a violence researcher, I’m just here to state for the record that police do not care about your security footage.
Individual websites will not save us. Running from platform A to platform B will not work as payment processors and legislation will simply follow our trail
You have to speak out against censorship and surveillance legislation. Its the source of all of this.

I've been struggling with how to express my dismay at the war coverage by our top newsrooms, and how it dances around the central fact that Trump is deranged and unfit to command. I finally wrote something. Please read it. presswatchers.org/2026/03/the-...
BIG CRAB
this is the kind of content that ends up getting censored with crackdowns on sex and queer content. people trying to help queer (or straight) homeless kids trying to navigate safe ways to get it on--and they will encounter it either way, just like every kid will
Indie fund Outersloth has rejected every generative AI pitch it has received
Good words of warning here. AI models are generally designed to read and incorporate (and, in a sense, believe) virtually everything they find online, with very few guardrails. The information can get divorced from its original source, context, & rebuttals or retractions. That's a really big problem
Incredible. Watch until the end to see one goat (young? sick?) being cradled on a saddle on horseback.
After being forced to flee his home in southern Lebanon, he reached Beirut bringing all of his farm animals with him. Even in displacement, he couldn’t bear the thought of abandoning them.

god finding this is like stumbling across a buried USB drive in the woods. bizarre
