If your reaction to "SoundCloud is stealing your music to train AI" is this, catch the block, you fucker.No, it's not "just a joke" because it's not funny: the computing centers that process the GenAI bullshit are burning water and polluting the air and soil around them.We cannot afford the destruction the wreak. So fuck your "joke"

The protests in the Paramount area of L.A. have been going on for many hours now.Very little mainstream news coverage, and what's there is very slanted. ICE agents already drove one vehicle through a makeshift barricade, hitting and injuring protesters; the tear gas has ignited bushes in the area, and shit is BAD there.#AbolishICE #AbolishDHS #ACAB #PoliceState #LosAngelesCurrently live footage, from the ground and overhead, here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCvsTTWNzSY

#PSA If you are in the U.S.: know your (protest) rights!Also: be careful. Make sure your phone is turned off and requires pin/password (rather than fingerprint or face) to unlock. Let others know where you'll be going. Carry as much water as you can. Carry spare respirators/masks.ETA: here's another resource to share for people who speak other languages: https://clinic.shorthandstories.com/know-your-rights/index.html#USPolitics #Fascism #KnowYourRights

Rebecca Solnit, on what is happening in Los Angeles right now, and what it can mean for the country: " it's also useful to make a distinction between property damage (which protesters in the USA in our era have done from time to time) and harming living beings (which is largely something done by law enforcement in these demonstrations)."#USPolitics #LosAngeles #Violence #Fascism https://www.meditationsinanemergency.com/some-notes-on-the-city-of-angels-and-the-nature-of-violence/

"Hope has two beautiful daughters: Anger and Courage"Hope is never for fools; hope is for leaders. ALL of the rights they're taking to take away from us right now were gained because someone hoped, and got angry and gathered their courage, and forced the wealthy to acknowledge those rights. #USPolitics #Fascism #TruthMattersRead Molly White's newsletter on why documenting the truth matters.https://www.citationneeded.news/it-matters-i-care/

#SubstackHasANaziProblem Last week, people got swastikas in their notifications, because Substacks algorithm was recommending top Nazi newsletters.

#PSA #CallToAction If you have a newsletter (or know someone who has one) on Substack, please pass this link on: soon they won't be able to port their paid subscriptions off to a different platform, because Apple will be handing the money. They must act ASAP to get off the Nazi propaganda platform to an alternative.#SubstackHasANaziProblem #Substack https://mail.bigdeskenergy.com/p/substack-just-killed-creator-economy
