Generative AI is dangerous to humans, not in the Asimovian way the Anthropic creeps are carping on about, but in the way that it is literally poisoning our air and water www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Check out WWU’s official press release on the WWU-US win ✊️ wikiworkersunited.org/announcement... What made this possible: worker organizing, global solidarity, and extraordinary support from 2,000+ Wikimedia volunteers. Thank you to everyone involved. This win belongs to all of us! [union needed]

Across the US, workers are souring on AI. The tech industry has insisted that AI would make workers’ lives easier and more productive, that the more people understood and used AI, the more they would like it. Something closer to the opposite has happened.

BREAKING: The union of Starbucks workers is officially calling for a boycott of the chain. @sbworkersunited.org has over 12,000 unionized baristas, and they're calling on customers to stop visiting Starbucks until they get a fair union contract.

breaking: Wikimedia Foundation says it will not voluntarily recognize its workers union, instead insisting on an election held under Trump's NLRB. Wiki Foundation execs dodged this question at its massive conference last week. www.404media.co/wikimedia-wa...

Artists at Silver Sprocket have released their statement. I've personally severed all ties to the publisher because my book had not been printed yet, but there are plenty of artists whose careers are more enmeshed. Please read the statement, share, and support. cartoonist.coop/sprocket-art...

Layoffs are the only video game news there is now. Just people losing their jobs until video games cease to exist.
Today launches the game I've been working on: Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced It's been an incredible experience working with such hardworking,talented & amazing people and we are very glad that players are loving it Unfortunately my whole team is being laid off so we can't fully celebrate it

The House has passed KOSA. It now heads to the Senate, where this version, at least, faces an uphill battle. That said, get on the horn and call your legislators. NOW.

Everyone start making zines about this. Seriously spread the word.
Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada wasn’t even at the protest — his wife was — but prosecutors are pressuring him into giving up his permanent resident status because he allegedly moved a box of zines the day after. Now that he’s going to trial, he’s looking at decades behind bars and deportation.

please read this statement written by Benjamin "Champagne" Song and share as far and wide as you can: https://prairielanddefendants.com/defendant-writings/statement-by-benjamin-champagne-song/

This is horrifying. People getting sentenced to decades in prison for distributing zines, organizing mutual aid efforts, public protest.
Federal sentencing has started. Zachary Evetts was just sentenced to 50 years by Chief District Judge Reed O'Connor. Maricela Rueda was just sentenced to 840 months / 70 years by Judge Mark Pittman.

“As the annual Pride parade weaved its way through Durham… the rainbow flags were almost matched in number by trade union banners, as miners, postal workers, and train drivers swelled the parade’s ranks in solidarity, making it the biggest in Durham Pride’s history.” Solidarity is our strength. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
