The Innumerable Waste (2011) Sarcasm-enchanted. Ask me about my vasectomy.

  1. Not just predictable, really - widely predicted, as my friend Zeerak Talat very rightly says:

    1
  2. tell your state or city or schoolboard you’re paying attention. ask them how they plan to stand against this. ymmv!

    and the next time you see a candidate for anything suggest it’s time to compromise on trans rights (gavin) or that trans people can’t exist (rahm), say, “no. dealbreaker. fuck off.”

    excerpt from the executive order:

One of the most pervasive and destructive of these ideologies is so-called "diversity, equity, and inclusion" (DEI). In the Al context, DEl includes the suppression or distortion of factual information about race or sex; manipulation of racial or sexual representation in model outputs; incorporation of concepts like critical race theory, transgenderism, unconscious bias, intersectionality, and systemic racism; and discrimination on the basis of race or sex.
DEl displaces the commitment to truth in favor of preferred outcomes and, as recent history illustrates, poses an existential threat to reliable Al.

    i try not to do a thread like this without some sort of call to action. it’s hard to call to action against an executive order!

    but if you want to stand with trans people—and everyone else who will eventually be erased by this—now is the time to reach out to your state & local government.
