- Reposted by Lindley AshlineSo many of the problems in society right now tracks back to the false statement that "technology is apolitical" being used by techbros to simply assert their own political opinions as "right", uncontestable, and must be imposed on society, and not just other political opinions, same as many others

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineHospital acquired COVID has a 10% fatality rate & is almost completely avoidable with clean air & masking Why aren’t we doing it? Why aren’t people enraged when someone goes in for care & dies of COVID? It’s because they think those vulnerable people were going to die soon anyways. It’s eugenics
- Reposted by Lindley Ashlineit is So Cool And Good that once you become a certain level of known that you lose all personhood and instead become a constellation of ideas and loose signifiers for people to interpret as they see fit, divining whatever meaning is most useful for them at the time

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineYou all desperately need to consider the possibility that it’s ok and good actually for disabled people to exist and our existence doesn’t make our lives less real or worthy or human. We’re not a drain on society. We’re not a burden. We’re literally just people.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineI support trans rights; I recognise and respect trans people and their right to exist the same as others; I resent and object to the tired lies that bigots promote. Trans rights are human rights.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineReinfections aren’t harmless. Every time you catch COVID, you increase the risk of long COVID, organ damage, and chronic illness—even if you “felt fine” during the infection.

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineWhatever topic you’re thinking of, I have the correct opinion. There, I saved both of us a lot of time.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlinePlease, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineNostalgia for something that never existed is a deep underpinning of both conservatism as a whole and fascism. It’s also honestly funny to watch these children screech about democratizing art or whatever when what they’re doing is more akin to gentrification.

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineWhen you hear billionaires and bosses sing the praises of AI making human workers unnecessary, I urge you to remember: the streets and alleys and graveyards are all full to bursting with the human workers the bosses "made unnecessary."
- Reposted by Lindley Ashlineopenai’s new ghibli “generator” is explicitly an intentional attempt at humiliation of a prominent objector openai is culturally fascist as well as functionally fascist it’s not an accident

- College was where I became an exvangelical, but I was only able to go due to privilege, so this is such a good point.

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineResearch I've done for other things, books that I've read which sounded randomly interesting, fanfic I wrote, has all been ten years of turning me into the person who could write this. An llm, external to myself, could not have done this.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineThese tech ghouls deserve the worst. They shroud their larceny and inhumanity in “greater good” rhetoric when it’s transparently evil.
- Reposted by Lindley Ashline“No problem!” I lied politely
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineA woman (60s?) in a lacy black dress and black and white striped witches' tights is strutting out of a hardware store, pushing a trolley full of plants, fertilizer and a new shovel. Eldritch gardening business is definitely nigh! (4)
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineWe don't all have to be focused on the same fights right now. There are many fronts & fights. The most important thing is that each of us take up one or two. That's really it. Get to ground, find your people, and fight like hell.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineWe really don't talk enough about how the spammers of the early aughts turned into the affiliate advertising guys of the late aughts turned into the crypto/Blockchain bros of the 2010s turned into the genAI guys of today It's always been vaguely organized nerd crime, all the way down

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineA normal person thinks of getting money as accumulating money, increasing wealth. A billionaire thinks of it as collateral to use to go deeper into a mathematically staggering debt, reaching that magical point where you get richer the more money you owe.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineThis is because we exist in a racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, etc, culture. Everything we absorb, *whether we want to or not*, has those messages in it. Unless you go looking for the root of those attitudes in yourself, you *will not notice* that you hold them.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineYou like to do something a little cheeky? Little bit fun?? Go into an artists media tab and go back say 3 months or more in there art posting and hit share and see if it gets some new eyes on it. It’s grate fun and you can do it for free.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineTwo things: 1. My friend Sydneysky has often talked about the link between fatphobia and its reinforcement of misogyny and gender essentialism. 2. Men suffer from disordered eating in very large numbers, but rather than studying that, it just becomes fuel for more of their displaced violence.

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineSo much profound beauty in our world. But it seems the forces unable to see beyond their own wealth, power, and egos are in the ascendant right now. It's our duty to mind ourselves and each other in these tough times, which may well get much worse. The living world depends on us never giving up. 🌍

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineThis speech is amazing. And speaking truth can change minds. We can’t be silent, and allies need to amplify these messages.
- Rep Zephyr’s speech flips 13 GOPs, trans bills die in Montana Trans people have been scapegoated so effectively (among older people) that we're flooded with models of how to hate. But when people hear the love behind why we stand up for each other, we win. Bravo, @zoandbehold.bsky.social!
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineReminder: Today, you choose to love yourself just as you are. You don't need anyone else's approval - just your own. You will celebrate your unique individuality. You are unique. You are special. You are loved. You matter. I'm proud of you
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineThe only defense against Fascism that doesn't leave us bleeding out is accepting this simple truth: There are no disposable people.
- Reposted by Lindley Ashline"But it says 'General Strike'!" I don't care. You're not a trustworthy activist if you're taking food out of people's mouths. "But I can't afford to hire an artist!" Then ask an artist for permission to use their work. STOP USING GENERATIVE AI.

- Reposted by Lindley AshlineSupport queer artists. Support queer people looking for help to survive with mutual aid. Support actual queer businesses. Disavow anyone trying to erase the T, the A, or any other letter. And do not dare to enter a resistance space and tell people how they have to behave in it.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineI'm not faking it till I make it. I'm making the joy in my life because anything less is an act of self-harm in this environment. Love you! 🧡💛🖤🩷 #BlackJoy #BreakingNormal
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineI’ll be fat on any Tuesday I want to. You’re not the boss of me.
- Reposted by Lindley AshlineBodily autonomy helps everyone, not just trans people, and when you see them taking it away from us, you have to ask yourself, are they coming for you next? Probably. Doctors don’t listen to women, or prescribe us the meds we need, and that’s as much a denial of bodily autonomy as anything.
