For @Parapraxis_Mag I wrote about the "vibecession" debate and the many past efforts to assert a hierarchy of needs and desires — and ultimately ask what a politics without that hierarchy might look like

There is no acceptable use for AI. All the work they say they're saving? It's just these folks.
Remember when the world found out Kenyans were being paid less than $2 an hour to “train” ChatGPT? An investigation now shows OpenAi agreed to pay higher - $12.50 an hour, and the outsourcing company “tricked” them to work as call center agents.

She was volunteering for the same organization where Rachel Corrie was volunteering before she was crushed and killed by an Israeli army bulldozer more than 20 years ago.
A 26 year old American peace activist was just shot in the head and killed by an Israeli sniper in the West Bank

I’m one of the few people (and I mean few) who wore a mask the whole time indoors last week at the DNC. Now positive for covid. Symptomatic (headache, sore throat, congestion, nausea). EXTREMELY bummed to be missing out on moderating @cjcmichel’s book release event tonight 💔💔

July 24: US Congress gives standing ovation to Netanyahu as he claims the IDF is the most moral army in history July 29: open IDF mutiny when soldiers get arrested for running a rape dungeon
Insane Report: The IDF is withdrawing multiple battalions from the Gaza Strip and sending them to defend the Beit Lid base which is under siege by fascist militias. This is actually good news.

Extraordinary situation playing out in Israel as soldiers are essentially mutining, with the support of far right civilians, for the unfettered right to carry out sexual violence against interned Palestinians. Members of parliament leading lynch mobs around. Total chaos.
Replying to @Ha_Matar
In essence, soldiers are in open rebellion for the right to rape prisoners, and more and more coalition politicians are joining them - from Likud, Jewish Power, and more
