if you build “community” around hating other people, just know that the second you step out of line—regardless of your moral uprightness or the hypocrisy on their part—you’re the next person they’re going to tear to pieces.

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Question 1/3

What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?

under 18, AI is a net positive

under 18, AI is a net negative

18-29, AI is a net positive

18-29, AI is a net negative

30-45, AI is a net positive

30-45, AI is a net negative

46-60, AI is a net positive

46-60, AI is a net negative

over 60, AI is a net postive

over 60, AI is a net negative

Remaining time: 5 days 21 hours

Question 2/3

How often do you visit or interact with museums/archives (whether in person or online)?

Frequently (multiple times per month)

Often (multiple times per year)

Occasionally (a couple times per year)

Rarely (once every couple of years)

Never :(

Remaining time: 5 days 21 hours

[odyver]

Question 3/3

If you saw a museum was using AI in exhibits, marketing, research, etc., would you be more or less inclined to visit that museum?

under 18, more inclined

under 18, less inclined

18-29, more inclined

18-29, less inclined

30-45, more inclined

30-45, less inclined

46-60, more inclined

46-60, less inclined

over 60, more inclined

over 60, less inclined

Remaining time: 5 days 21 hours

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

Sewing "a little bit" is one of the most useful skills you can possibly have proportional to how cheap and easy it is to learn.

So many of the items in our daily lives are sew-able. A simple needle and thread changes the way you think. When an item breaks, you no longer think, "I guess I must buy a new one..." Instead, you think, "I guess I must fix it..."

How many of these everyday items rest for eternity in a landfill, because of a simple break that a needle and thread could have fixed? How many excess items were manufactured to make up for the forgetting of the humble needle and thread...?

I love you, needle and thread...

THISSSSSSSSS man the day my nonna's sewing kit was handed to me something changed in me

If you see this:

It’s okay to sit down while doing anything in the kitchen. You don’t even need to be disabled or chronically ill. Your feet do not need any excuses. Rest them

It’s okay to cut potatoes in front of the tv while sitting on the couch.

Abled folks could learn a lot from the measures disabled folks take to adapt to their conditions and hack their environment and daily tasks so it benefits them in all the possible ways.

And - it is an investment in future self to learn the skill of adaptation should one fall ill or disabled for any reason.

When I was a kid I was taught that sitting down while cooking was very dangerous (somehow). I wasn't allowed to sit, even when standing hurt.

I carried this far into adulthood. Do I... Not have to?

Did it never hurt them to stand?

[painedandconfusedsblog]

I understand why folks can be against “you can become disabled at any time” argument. But, I fear it is being flattened by identity politics. Yes, we should care about someone simply because they are human. However, it’s been my experience this discourse is used specifically in regards to accessibility and internalized ableism to display the fact that disability is inevitable and ableism impacts everyone, so it’s best to embrace accessibility and de-programming internalized ableism now.

For me, it’s less ‘be nice to disabled people because it could happen to you’ and more: accessibility already benefits everyone, ableism is deeply internalized in all of us, and most people will eventually have to confront dependence, limitation, chronic illness, pain, aging, or loss of function. So maybe unpacking that fear now matters.

Also, I honestly don’t think you can fully do anti-capitalist work without unpacking ableism because capitalism fundamentally relies on it.
