Hey fam! If you see accounts reposting other folx nudes/porn without the subject's consent, please report that shit. It's fucking gross and predatory to steal photos of someone else's body and repost them elsewhere.

This goes for *any* accounts doing that bullshit, but especially those fucking porn bot accounts that scrape other sites and then blow their ill-gotten load all over the place. This isn't Twitter.

Support your local adult content creators, boost their posts, share links to their OC, check out their sites. Sex work is work. These reposters are just as bad as the AI companies profiting off of stolen art.

Just checked my Google Drive account, and, yes, Gemini is sneakily activated in the settings, although I never agreed to that. #psa

#PSA - I recently stopped my windows based computer backing every document and photo to the #Cloud because fuck #Microsoft and their #LLM - I never asked for their fucking cloud storage in the first place. Or their LLM that they incorrectly call AI - it is not AI and can’t even add up.

Anyway, as part of this process, Microsoft then automatically deleted all my files - *including* the versions on my own computer. Fuck Microsoft.

As it happens, I back up all my computer files on an external HardDisk on the first day of every month. As a result, I was able to copy the files and directories back to my computer with little disruption.

If you are going to disconnect from your cloud storage - be warned in advance … back up all your files and directories on an external Hard Disk first.

the #FBI is now officially visiting the homes of people spotted at protests like #NoKings, #ICE, etc.

it boggles the mind that there are people at #protests in the US who, upon finding #FBI agents at their door asking “do you have a few minutes to talk about the protests?” answer with anything other than “do you have a warrant?” followed by a polite request that they leave your property.

this isn’t complicated. you need to shut the fuck up. the #5thAmendment exists for a reason. shutting the fuck up cannot be used against you, for any reason, ever. not shutting the fuck up will never help you. it can only hurt you.

any false statement to the FBI can be charged as a crime. even if you just forgot. even if you mix up the order of events. even if you tell the truth but the agents find another person whose story contradicts yours. even if you tell the truth but the agents misremember what you said (!!!).

talking to the FBI is much more legally perilous than talking to the police (and you shouldn’t do that either). talking to Kash Patel's FBI is far more perilous than talking to the old FBI.

i know it’s hard. you want to be helpful. you think if you stay silent they'll find you suspicious. you want to explain yourself. it’s a very natural human thing and that’s exactly what they’re going to use against you. so here’s a helpful script you can follow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqo5RYOp4nQ

literally every single lawyer in the united states will tell you exactly what i’m telling you now. tell a friend. tell all your friends. tell random people you see on the street.

and shut. the. fuck. up.

don't be like this guy, who helpfully stepped out of his house to chat with the FBI outside the range of audio recording for most of an hour: https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/video-fbi-agents-visit-anti-ice-protester
