Thanks @parismarx.com for having us on to discuss LIFE AFTER CARS. I’m a longtime @techwontsave.us listener so this was a treat.

Thrilled to finally have my pals @brooklynspoke.bsky.social and @sgoodyear.bsky.social from @thewaroncars.bsky.social on the show! You should all pick up a copy of their new book LIFE AFTER CARS :)

@desmog.com reviewed US tax records which show Bill Gates’ charity has donated more than $3.5 million to a think tank run by Danish academic and climate crisis denier Bjørn Lomborg www.desmog.com/2025/11/05/b...

short term profit for long term social harm

Excited to be in the Big Red Apple so soon after its conversion to communism. Make sure to join us!

The Palestinian groups’ YouTube channels hosted hours of footage documenting and highlighting alleged Israeli government violations of international law in both Gaza and the West Bank. interc.pt/4oUJNer

Western woman shocked by a public library 📚 in Tehran, Iran.

just....enjoy this

such a good and useful website that wasn’t hostile toward me

it’s funny seeing canadian media present zohran as a “democratic socialist” like it’s some shocking thing and not just the left flank of the ndp

this is our version of the right sharing AI slop they know is fake but they don’t care because they want it to be true

oh this is cool and unexpected

We try to give as much insight into how we report our stories and our dealings with tech companies as we can, and the narratives that they push. Meta has become obsessed with telling reporters that its smart glasses are no different than an iPhone. So we wrote this: www.404media.co/whats-the-di...

Lots of great things about it, but Mamdani’s victory is also an encouraging win over the evil AI hate slop that Cuomo was tossing at the virtual wall at the end there. Deepfakes are dangerous but they are also a sign of despotic desperation.

can’t let genocide stand in the way of profits and decent relations with the US

“…it took the death of a cat to really galvanize — and divide — the public.”

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

For years, but especially for the past year, Democrats have been in thrall to the idea that they need to chase an imagined median voter, and adopt that voter’s positions. Mamdani’s victory shows another way: hold principles, and persuade people to share them.

“You’ve been repeating several times that Russia should pay for the reconstruction of Ukraine. Do you believe that Israel should pay for the reconstruction of Gaza since they have destroyed almost all its civilian infrastructure?”

in any other country the guy wearing a red beret on a red background would be the old communist

All chatbots are right wing chatbots. 🤷🏿‍♂️

get ready, europe: canada is coming to eurovision! lmao

Great to speak with @sharper.bsky.social about techno-fascism. Hopefully my French is alright! Definitely check out the series he’s been putting together though.

Latest from me about how a consortium of companies led by Shell offered at least one community member money as long as they agreed not to raise concerns with "members of the media, the [BC Energy Regulator] or the District of Kitimat."

Fraud? At an Elon Musk company????

NEW: Common Crawl, the massive archiver of the web, has gotten cozy with AI companies and is providing paywalled articles for training data. They’re also lying to publishers who have asked for material to be removed. “The robots are people too,” CC’s exec director told us when we asked about this.

The Amazing World Of Tomorrow

not at all surprised that joe rogan is losing his mind to AI slop

New awareness campaign

Israeli's chief military prosecutor has been arrested and will likely face trial for "perverting the course of justice". Over the past two years, she provided legal cover for numerous crimes against humanity in Gaza. All this didn't protect her when she pursued a single torture case.

The intimidation included threats that family members would lose visas, which is both in character and *friggin insane*

Good bit of analysis here. 'Putting lay-offs down to AI sounds better than saying “we need to keep margins high so we’re sacking some low performers” and politically safer than saying “unpredictable Trump tariff policy means we are hiring less young people.”'

montreal’s new mayor wants to rip up bike lanes and create a more permissive regulatory structure for airbnbs. grim result.

lmao thank you president maduro

people coming for teen vogue’s crown

saw metallica for the first time and impressed by how shamelessly capitalist they are at extracting profit from their fan base

The grift must be getting difficult for Geoffrey now that he’s turning to spouting off with little actual insight on something he once dismissed as unimportant because it wasn’t existential like the threat of AGI ruling over us or whatever.

as part of our national decoupling from the US, canada needs to get serious about european football (otherwise known as soccer)

this would be me but with the flight map on

if canada is the “most european on non-europeans nations,” why are we still using these outdated imperial measures for so many things? mark carney likes making big bold decisions. well, he should finish canada’s adoption of the metric system, as virtually all our peers did ages ago.

just when you thought the elbows couldn’t come down any further, carney finds a way

His worst offense was reorienting the entire Paris agreement away from affordability toward innovation through his Mission Innovation side show in 2015. China went the route of deployment, we decided that we needed to focus on innovation instead. www.wsj.com/articles/oba...

wow, such brilliance, thank you genius king. good thing so many people worshipped this dumbass for so long.
