How the sister of Christopher Pelkey made an avatar of him to testify in court.
An AI avatar made to look and sound like the likeness of a man who was killed in a road rage incident addressed the court and the man who killed him: “To Gabriel Horcasitas, the man who shot me, it is a shame we encountered each other that day in those circumstances,” the AI avatar of Christopher Pelkey said. “In another life we probably could have been friends. I believe in forgiveness and a God who forgives. I still do.”
It was the first time the AI avatar of a victim—in this case, a dead man—has ever addressed a court, and it raises many questions about the use of this type of technology in future court proceedings.
The avatar was made by Pelkey’s sister, Stacey Wales. Wales tells 404 Media that her husband, Pelkey’s brother-in-law, recoiled when she told him about the idea. “He told me, ‘Stacey, you’re asking a lot.’”
May all these fuckers rot in hell, amen.
The Dems are so good at being the opposition party that they are… complying with the fascists? This is pathetic.
The Tik-Tok inspired use of unalive has seeped beyond the boundaries of the app. It drives me crazy when people say that in real life. The dystopian vibes really start to hit when censored online jargon bleeds into IRL. For the sake of pushing past it - it makes me want to kill myself.
Paul Ryan was really into a band that sings a song about this until they got too political.
Macklemore’s support of Palestine goes back to at least his time in college - this song is far from performative. Much love to him for releasing this and continuing to speak on Palestine.
What happens when two comics artists ‘meet on the page’ to explore the tragedies of the Israel-Gaza war? Art Spiegelman, best known for his Pulitzer prize-winning Holocaust memoir Maus, and Joe Sacco, author of bestselling graphic reportage Palestine, grapple with the ongoing crisis
I feel you. I did not expect mine to crash but I am in Japan and streamed a movie from my server on the West coast of North America.

My Cascadia Comrade! Join me as I get https://slrpnk.net/c/cascadia going!
I appreciate the guide and effort to put these resources together. Some days I feel like I am screaming into a void because people have just accepted being the product that the likes of Google, Meta, and so on are selling.
Now that these companies have gone full mask off it is more important than ever to create inviting anti-fascist spaces on the web and I am so glad to have found this one! Thanks for keeping it running here. I hope I can contribute in a positive way beyond posting.
Often times the Catholic Workers in your town may be up to some very radical and meaningful work. The Workers I know aren't even all Catholic themselves, but the do take money from the church to keep their programs running.

It saddens me it took this long, but Leonard Peltier is finally free!
A great primer on Cascadia and a bit about our regional geographical dangers.
