Allergic to asininity. A bad, bad man.


@MacTVTravel She? Thailand 🇹🇭 is the land of Robots 🤖 in disguise!


The CEO of Anthropic, the AI company behind the popular Claude chatbot, believes "it cannot possibly be more than a few years before AI is better than humans at essentially everything.” Indeed, the company's near-trillion dollar valuation rests on a plan to destroy millions of high-paying jobs. Not to worry, says the person at Anthropic in charge of "research partnerships with the world’s wisdom traditions," since all of that destruction will free people up for things like "grounds maintenance," "food and serving," and "personal care." This is dystopian. Those are the lowest-wage jobs in America. Millions of more people in the service sector will only further drive down wages. Anthropic's head of researching wisdom traditions tries to spin this by saying, "another word for grounds maintenance is gardening. And another word for food and, and service is hospitality." Anthropic says we should think of this as "The Great Turning," which is no different from the World Economic Forum's equally dystopian "Great Reset." Part of what's behind Anthropic's efforts to humanize and even spiritualize AI is the need to convince investors that its technology will destroy millions of high-paying jobs. But another part is a deeply degrading and dehumanizing view of people. x.com/shellenberger/…

@jk_rowling @HJoyceGender 1) This is exactly the way slut-shaming works; you take the way someone dresses to look good for themselves or to feel good about themselves, and you ascribe it sexual intent. 2) it's tricky for trans people - if they dress conservatively, they risk being mis-gendered (cont).

All farang-local relationships in Thailand should ideally last about one hour , two if you're especially passionate 😆



Shocked by this analysis of @AmnestyUK report by GenderJusticeProgDirector @chiaracapraro Podcast Feb 2026 @SexMattersOrg @AllianceLGB @WomensRightsNet @Transgendertrd @genspect @jk_rowling @bindelj @Docstockk @newsandpics @soniasodha @ForWomenScot rss.com/podcasts/belli…

Bellingcat, which claims to specialise in investigation and fact checking, allowed this woman to spread her malicious libel about feminist groups and lie about history & the law on their podcast. Her position at @AmnestyUK provides the cover for this.

@Welshracer It’s absurd for them to publish the report and then immediately withdraw it for review. That suggests some panic at a failure of internal scrutiny and a dawning awareness of external risk from publishing it

The beautiful game belongs to everyone. As Amnesty Ambassador Anita Asante says: the World Cup should be a moment of unity - but we know that's not been the reality for many. Help Amnesty bring people together and fight injustice by buying one of these World Cup t-shirts today👇🏾 amn.st/6014BEOog8
