So South Dakota is trying to pass an amendment that will deny Medicaid for disabled folks unless they meet certain work requirements. It's called Amendment F. The people (rightly!) opposing the amendment have titled their campaign "F, NO!"

There are some good people here.

I think the most heated argument I ever saw in person was in high school when a classmate said, “Scientists have determined that in fact everyone’s true favorite color is blue.” People were ready to throw DOWN.

Now, I don’t think that was a true statement, but to this day I can’t fathom why colors made us so viscerally angry.

Saw a video this morning of a body builder flipping over a car with her bare hands. The comments were all ripping on her about how the car was pretty small and had the engine removed. So I guess just do what makes you happy and don’t worry about impressing people because they’ll find fault anywhere.

(And I fully intend to include a note that all food is breakfast food if you eat it in the morning!)

"I don't justify blocking for any reason" good for you, then don't block anyone.

"I can't see any good reason why you need a block function" I'm thrilled you've never been in a situation where you found blocking necessary! That's not the case for everyone though.

"I want you to justify why you block" shut up. I don't take homework assignments from strangers.

Discuss?

"If you block me it means you think I'm right" actually it means you're annoying and I wasn't enjoying our interaction. Life is too short to use my energy on strangers who suck.

WW Norton, the publisher of my Neurodiversity book (launching April 2025), sent a statement to all their authors stating that they oppose the use of AI to replace authors and committing to never consenting to our books being used to train an AI model. They are lobbing for laws to protect authors from our words being used for this without our consent.

Just thought everyone would like to know that about them.

I saw a FB add for a therapist bot and decided to read their privacy policy. They have a cutesy little paragraph that's like, "You can be totally anonymous, we take your privacy seriously, no account needed, click here to read the legalese" and the "legalese" bit said that they access your identifying and contact info, including location, when you download the app and are allowed to track your phone.

All other concerns about therapy AI aside, what the FUCK is THAT.
