learning to notice an absence of people of color is crazy. you start seeing it everywhere. ill see a random pic of characters or people or whatever and be like "these are all white people. why"

During the time that I did NGO work, one of the most jarring things was going to conferences and watching the rooms get whiter and whiter the more the conference focused on managers, CEO's, politicians and others in leadership positions. Color disappears further up the hierarchy and while we all kinda know that it's weird to see it happen in front of your eyes.

And always there would be:

1 noticable uncomfortable POC who is either there as an intern/assistant to a white person or as the 'diversity manager'.

10 white ladies loudly complaining that there's only 30% women here while leaving the 99.9% whiteness completely unmentioned.

This is why Pride is not just a party. It's a joyful celebration, but it's also a pointed and colourful two-finger salute to a world that stood back whilst so many of us died. And we'll never go quietly, never again.

You can't advocate for restorative justice to tumblr users or they'll call you something like morally catholic or something. Like what are we doing here.

IDK I feel like delineating categories of people that boil down to "irredeemable abusers" who all deserve to be shunned and ostracized on the basis of dubious claims with no chance to be welcomed back into their support network--especially when those in question happen to be the most vulnerable members of already marginalized communities--feels pretty poisoned by christian moral frameworks to me. At least more than the people going "hey let's not do that."

When you're a kid you just take trees for granted. Then when you get to be an adult you realize that a fully mature tree cannot be created in an amount of time that fits in a convenient landscaping timeframe for love nor money nor all the powers of science. Then you realize that people are very very very cavalier about chopping them down

I cannot stop laughing at the idea that socialism ignores humanity’s highest spiritual ideal: owning yachts.

The existence of a safeword also implies the existence of a dangerword that you can use to instantly turn any sexual event into a combat encounter

BLESS YOU OP. Reblogging for anyone else who (like me) was deeply sad about having missed it.

This has been my main argument against "AI" from the very beginning.

OpenAI scraped the entire web. All of which had been a labor of love from humans. Wikipedia is the backbone of a lot of LLMs, and that was volunteer human labor. They stole it and now they're selling it back to us.

And worse, they're trying to destroy the free sources that they stole from. It's destruction of human knowledge on an unprecedented scale. The burning of the library of Alexandria has nothing on this.

Alright i'll never complain about anything my neighbors do ever again
