ZOHRAN: “TBH, I don’t think too much about how Republicans portray me. The power of an ideology is judged in the worth of its delivery— to be told a city-run grocery store is implausible but $500 MILLION/day to kill ppl in Iran & Lebanon is necessary speaks to a broken politics.”

The lovely Regina Hall did what should have been done at the BAFTA Awards. She took a moment to show some love to Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo for the class and poise they demonstrated on stage! This is how it is done. ✨💞🏆

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love.” ― #NelsonMandela #ZeroDiscrimination

BREAKING: The attacks launched by the United States against Iran that included bombing a school and massacring 85 schoolgirls were carried out using AI. This is yet another reason to oppose AI and data centers: They are now war machines.

People are cancelling their OpenAI & ChatGPT accounts en masse. This is good. Keep the movement growing. QuitGPT. Also, we must grasp why integrating ANY AI system into the military is a very dangerous thing to do. Stop ALL AI companies who are merging with the military.

We know democracy doesn’t exist in America because this is happening & nobody asked us anything. We didn’t vote for it or agree to it. We are not the decision makers. Amazing that people stormed the U.S. Capitol over fake stolen election allegations, but are sitting this one out…

W. E. B. Du Bois was born on this day in 1868. “Capitalism cannot reform itself; it is doomed to self-destruction.”

A simple message with big meaning: "I am somebody." We are grateful to Rev. Jesse Jackson for helping teach generations of children to believe in themselves and in one another. Thank you for being part of our neighborhood. 💛💚

“The public thinks AI will worsen our ability to think creatively, form meaningful relationships & make difficult decisions….Americans believe AI will spread misinformation, erode our sense of purpose & meaning, & harm our social & emotional intelligence.” The public is right!

“Let us be crystal clear: there would not have been, in my view, a Barack Obama in 2008 w/out Jesse Jackson. There would not have been a VP Kamala Harris in 2020 w/out Jesse Jackson, and there would not have been a President Kamala Harris w/out Jesse Jackson.” — @BernieSanders
