After watching Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spout ableism and eugenic theory on live TV while lying about and dehumanizing folks with autism, I'm alarmed that the story here appears to be "wow RFK Jr is a total crank" What it should be is that everything about RFK Jr’s sham HHS study into the “causes” of autism is a reactionary eugenicist nightmare that threatens the health & lives of autistic people, particular children.

Nina-Bytes: Kennedy, Conspiracies, and Kids

"Reading this piece, two things immediately sprung to mind. First, I wouldn’t let Robert F. Kennedy Jr within ten feet of any child whatsoever if I had the ability to prevent it. Secondly; are we sure putting RFK Jr. in charge of Health and Human Services isn’t just a way to let some sadistic eugenicist freaks torture autistic children and profit from it? Because from out here, it sure does seem like that’s Kennedy’s plan and the reason for his department’s “massive testing and research” effort. I’m not a scientist, but somehow I doubt that conspiracy crank Kennedy and a fake doctor whose family business is apparently torturing children have the best interests of autistic Americans at heart; particularly when Kennedy is openly promoting the eugenicist idea that autism is an “epidemic” that is “destroying our children.”

OpenAI is using Studio Ghibli-style memes as an ad hoc promotional campaign for its new image generator—despite Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki's famous hatred of AI. Sam Altman even made his X avatar a 'Ghiblified' portrait.

Disgracing Miyazaki is part of the point: It's more proof to the industry's biggest boosters that they have won—that they're free to use, appropriate, and commoditize art however they see fit.

OpenAI's Studio Ghibli meme factory is an insult to art itself

Sam Altman is promoting his new image generator by appropriating the work of one of the greatest living animators—who is "disgusted" by AI.

I had a conversation this afternoon with the director of my regional public library, about Libby. She said that tagging books as Notify Me is what tells her what to buy. Libby notifies her about the requests for books from users, and if any book has more than three requests, she orders it. So using Notify Me is important!!!

Before you continue to YouTube

They want to tell you the boycotts don’t work
except Target has already lost over 16 billion since they trashed DEI. Walmart stores are empty & while I can’t find figures on losses
truth will out eventually. And Tesla alone has lost over 750 Billion.
People aren’t flying to US.
Keep up the good work people. You may not see the results published and they may say it doesn’t work, but it clearly does.
