If you're wondering why Bluesky uses "AI" as part of its content moderation, this thread is a useful one.

Image classifiers detect the worst content that needs to be gone (and humans then review the content given the labels in the most severe categories to see the context it was posted in and whether it needs to be removed entirely). But they also can't tell context.

"The rules say you can't change the Supreme Court without the Supreme Court's permission" well first of all the rules don't say that. Second of all it doesn't matter they already ripped up the fucking rulebook and wiped their asses with it and you're over here trying to unsmear the shit off of it

Folks in Reno please be on the lookout, this poor lady lost all three of her beloved cats when her vindictive ex surrendered them (w/o proper proof of ownership) behind her back. Link below.

Reforming this court is imperative. Ethics rules and term limits alone cannot fully restore balance and independence to #SCOTUS. But today’s announcement is a watershed moment in the fight to take back the court. Our stmt from @liptonlubet.bsky.social:

Oh, it turns out I figured out what to do with all of my anger! It’s a huge, free essay on whiteness and boundaries and why I spent all of yesterday bopping white liberal racism on the head. www.patreon.com/posts/108254...

I’m actually still very angry about this and I’m not sure how I’m going to deal with it, but absolutely none of my coping strategies will include bullying white marginalized people because I’m actually interested in progress

I'm getting fed up with people who are already giving up IN JULY

every day I feel like I'm losing my mind as people look at a statistically tied race where one guy is a felon with deeply unpopular positions who ALREADY LOST THIS EXACT RACE and are like "he is 100% for sure going to win"

Tesla's CEO pledged almost $200 million to the candidate who wants to end the EV tax credit, lift gas mileage restrictions, end subsidies for electric charging infrastructure, and penalize EV owners. Because it's not about EVs or saving the planet. It's about his personal power.

Here’s the way I see it: If Senator Bob Menendez can be convicted of accepting hundreds of thousands in bribes, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas can be convicted of accepting hundreds of thousands in bribes. — Let’s fucking go already, this isn’t rocket science.

I think one of the most infuriating things to me is how well our enemies can overcome their disdain for each other to work toward our destruction while we seem to be obsessed with dividing our communities even in the face of existential threats.

idk i feel like expecting everyone to have an opinion on every horrible thing happening is how we get into a very big mess of people who cannot possibly have all the info saying wrong things very loudly and influencing more people to be loud and wrong

There's a lot of terrible news, but tonight I helped run an event that raised over $50,000 for grassroots organizations doing GOTV work and building progressive power, especially among youth and people of color, so that helps! (check out movement.vote, they give me hope)

Yet more reasons why "but Europe regulates Big Tech!!" is a terrible argument. Elon is a dipshit and Twitter is a cesspool, but the EU's DSA is a fundamentally illiberal setup that hands entirely too much power to unaccountable actors that abuse it in a user-hostile manner.

In case you missed the dick-swinging (that's a legal term) going on between Elon Musk and Thierry Breton over on X, it's... possibly actually pretty important this time. They're posturing about DSA enforcement again. 1/

If it’s not helpful to you, by all means ignore this, but I’m just saying… It really helps me to recenter myself to think “Oh right. The worst fucking people on the planet want me to feel like we’re doomed. Fuck those guys, actually.”
