UPDATE: nearly a week later, we're now up to 171 signatories! I suspect we'll get to 200 before Friday.
I also rejiggered the repo so it's easier for me to merge submission PRs (no more merge conflicts!), so it'll help keep updates publishing quickly.
Check it out!!
P.S. Anyone with sick 88x31 button design skills, we're looking for some help with that!

Safety Not Guaranteed (2012), staring Aubrey Plaza & Mark Duplass (also Jake Johnson)
Plus it offers a very cool cameo. I won't say who. Apropos of nothing, do you want to build a snowman?
I really loved this movie. You can watch it for free on Tubi. It's totally corny, earnest, low-budget, and set in swampy ferny beaches off the Washington coast.
I mean, what's NOT to love!! 😍

That's, uh, pretty damning stuff. 😳
WMF, do better.
Y'gotta admire all the extra hard work The Onion writers have to put in these days to make their headlines seem fanciful, as the *actual* headlines themselves now all sound like they're from The Onion. 🙃

This is WILD. I used to live right near that big oval park in the Pearl District and was always looking at the Centennial Mills building. Now I love me a good ol' industrial warehouse because of the vintage vibes, but this one was clearly in need of demolition for a *long* time.
Fire sucks, but if outside people & property are OK and the end result is this blight is taken out of the neighborhood and we get river access, that's kind of a good thing IMHO.

This sounds bad. 😬
"In the past five weeks, the market has collapsed, shedding almost 40 per cent, and threatening the livelihood of millions of South Koreans...
More than a million South Koreans are underwater as a result of the crash, and several hundred thousand have lost everything, and then some.
They borrowed to the hilt to take part in a frenzied splurge on technology stocks, particularly memory chip makers, in a market now experiencing a savage reversal.
Nothing, not even the stellar earnings of the country's two biggest chip makers, has been able to stem the panic, primarily because the debt that fuelled the stock market boom is now accentuating the crash."

my favorite part was when zohran mamdani pulled up on a bike, said “NOT IN MY CITY” and saved the day
If useful, here's my attempt to process my feelings about how I feel sadly kinda — or rather very — sick from all this AI fascist nonsense as an academic. 😶🌫️
I'd be pleased if even one person finds something useful because there's something to be said for processing this all together, so, um, enjoy?
I have just found out apparently that my teen has heard about Bill Maher and doesn't at all care for the dude.
"He is a confused man…he needs to pick a side."
Have I ever mentioned that my teen is very wise for their age? 😊
Good news my synthy friends… 🎹🎛️

Hi! I’m new here. I’ve tried Mastodon a couple times but maybe third time’s the charm! I have become increasingly disillusioned by mainstream social media and I’m searching for ways to connect with other people outside of an algorithm.
I teach high school English and I read a lot. Currently at book 92 of a read around the world project. I was a teen in the 90s and still trying to keep my grunge phase alive. I love art and film too.
Hope to meet some likeminded people!
Hi writers and artists! I wanna finally introduce myself, I joined bc BlueSky's leads are too pro AI.
I write spec fiction, fantasy and scifi stuff (on its surface soft scifi but in actuality it varies) and I like queer, woke, disability rep, etc.
My current WIP series, now in 2026, is about a mage who ends up in a wheelchair and happens to intimidate everyone at her college!🧙♀️👩🦽✨ What's not to love?
Curious to hear what y'all are up to!
We're in the era of incompetence and cybercrimes headlined as "unprecedented model capabilities gone rogue." So OpenAI and Anthropic are trying to one up each other with such incompetence because the "press release as a service" performing media and clueless politicians parrot pre IPO CEO talking points.
the party i threw when Kissinger kicked the bucket and sailed off down the River Styx was excellent, but that was nothing compared to the absolute fucking rager I will throw when the fucking AI bubble finally pops
