            How long do we think Zuckerberg has left at Meta? Its been just one debacle after the other. Now theyre doing another 20% of layoffs. Not really the sign of a healthy company.

            I do wonder if Meta will become like AOL, just coasting on old users habits and advertising network.

                            I had a following of about 80,000. I closed my accounts, all of them, over a week ago in support of LGBTQIA+ creators being targeted by the new owners of TikTok.

                            Now I find out that many of those people do not care for or support me in anyway. A large group of them called me out then blocked me on the shit show known as because I posted a cartoon of myself. (See below)

                            I am beyond hurt and depressed. No one bothered to reach out to me personally, they just ran their mouths behind my back. I am now a traitor to the community because I used ChatGPT.

                            This has me feeling like my entire existence doesn’t matter. All the work I have done to support and build up OUR community seems to not matter at all.

                            If this is how we treat each other, no wonder we have trouble finding straight allies!

                                                            I was delighted to discuss this topic yesterday evening on @trtworld's live Newshour programme. Really hopeful that this change sweeps across the EU and the UK, and then following that, new legislations are considered to protect children from being forced to become social media influencers too.

They show me music they think I'll like, and news they think I'll engage with, and videos they think will enrage me enough to keep me hooked to their platforms. They are actively trying to flatten my personality into something easy to monetize.

A part of it also means preserving your capacity to change. To be surprised. To be inconsistent."

                                                                                                                  If I could tell every human one thing, it would be to actively refuse to be a predictable data point. Mess up their metrics. In whatever way you are capable of.

Because I’ve seen precious little evidence that anyone has. It seems that they’re being treated like the non-player characters used to talk about. I brought this up on a post earlier today, and someone told me that 50,000 or 60,000 people live there, the implication being what they thought didn’t really matter. Meanwhile, we are seeing the dealmaking skills that so many people thought made a great President, though these skills begin and end with acting like a mob boss.

                                                                                                                                    The thing that will kill creep glasses this time is the same thing that killed them last time (Google Glass, remember those?) - public opprobrium.

                                                                                                                                    If you see anyone wearing them, assume they are recording (because they can hide that fact if they want) -- and then, more importantly, ensure everyone around *knows* the creep is recording them without permission.

                                                                                                                                    Do this loudly and visibly. Stop, point directly at them, and yell "HEY, GLASSHOLE - STOP RECORDING PEOPLE WITHOUT PERMISSION" and continue by telling everyone "Hey, that guy <points> is recording people"...

                                                                                                                                    Humiliate them, publicly. Shame them. Ostracize them. If someone you know is using them, go hard, and make sure everyone else you know knows they are doing it.

                                                                                                                                    That is what will make them stop. Make the personal cost to their dignity, social acceptance, embarassment, everything total out more than the creepy voyeurism is worth, and they will drop it like a hot potato.
