My main account got @-ed on this scam (no I won't say which one), and it occurred to me that some of the people here might not realize this is a scam.

It is. Do not click any mystery links. DO NOT give them any personal information. And DO NOT respond to messages like this.

[beardedmrbean]

thankfully most of us would rather see this place burn to the ground than hand over more information to staff so this kind of thing isn't going to do any good

[daysleftofsecondterm]

I know, but considering the chaos the gaza bots caused (and are still causing) I figured it’d be best to say this out loud early on

Some of the ones I've accumulated

we have to thank our brave soldiers in fandom who write gen fics. we have to thank our brave soldiers in fandom who write character studies and stories with no focus on romance or sex. we have to get on our knees and thank the brave soldiers in fandom who write about minor characters and friendship and family with no focus on romance or sex. i know it’s hard to care about characters in a world that seems to only revolve around ships but i see you. and i love you

[kropotkindersurprise]

If you see one of these things, cover your face and tip it over, if you have any paint or tools with you, wreck their cameras. [video]

I’m a Luddite. You should be one too

Why a workers’ rebellion in 19th-century England is relevant in the age of data extraction, gig labour and management by algorithm.

Appropos of nothing, nail polish comes in very small bottles that will fit in most bags, or pockets, without takingnup significant room, and removing it from many plastic-like surfaces is difficult, since many of those are dissolved in acetone

Witnessed on of these blocking the curb the other day. A woman in a wheelchair needed the space but the Captialism Robot completely blocked the way. The light changed color.

Luckily the oncoming driver saw this as well, turned on his warnings and pulled up to block her from other drivers.

A man came out of the crowd and literally had to pick up the robot and move it so she could safely access the sidewalk. A woman next to me commented to her friend "well that was nice of him, but now his door dash account will be deactivated because he touched it" as if that was anywhere in the realm of reasonable responses to witnessing one of these things endanger a woman's life. Oh no, his account 🙄 whatever will he do. Fuck these robots, and fuck doordash/ubereats/all these companies taking over public spaces for shareholder gains.

i have a suggestion

[drarry]

Imagine being the gays at a pride event in 2004 living their lives when someone grabs the microphone and announces to the room that Ronald Reagan was pronounced dead. Can you even imagine the hype, the celebration, the pure elation

[drarry]

This is the Pride Month that It will happen. I feel it in my gay bones

[astriiformes]

To be quite honest with you all I do think that aro/ace-spectrum fans in fandoms where people are desperately inventing crossover ships and humanizing non-human characters in order to have a conventionally attractive guy to ship the main character with, instead of possibly having to enjoy a story with no romance in it, have the right to refer to everyone else as cowards.

[astriiformes]

Sorry you almost had to entertain the idea that people like me exist, I'm sure that was very painful for you.

Younger folk are getting really good at spotting AI slop, to the consternation of marketing execs.

Found on Mastodon.

[sunderwight]

From what I remember of back when Millennials were outpacing Boomers at internet and tech stuff in general, this is going to cause a lot of issues for companies angling to use slop in marketing because the younger set are always going to be better at spotting it than the older, but the older are going to be the ones approving marketing campaigns and ads and etc. Meaning, the older people will not ever be able to tell what might actually convince the younger.

The good news is that if it persists and Gen Z and Gen Alpha continue to scoff at the generated stuff, then marketing departments aiming at them will just have to give up on using it because they won't be able to figure out how to fool their targets with it.

The bad news is that this won't apply to scams and campaigns aimed at older people, so once again we're going to have a situation where the kids will be the ones lunging across the coffee table to stop Mom from giving her financial info to that really obvious fake scam mom oh my god do NOT buy that it isn't even a real thing.

Anyway godspeed to the younger generations.
