It's June 1st, which means Pride month begins today. It's my 7th Pride as myself, and I find myself realizing something this year. Everything beautiful survived something to get here. I muse about Pride, picking up birding, and what we have been through. Happy Pride.

Cecilia Vega, the first 60 Minutes Latina correspondent, was fired today, along with some of her colleagues, as Bari Weiss overhauls the news magazine. She has released this statement:

I'm sorry, did I read that correctly?!

I think that’s a wrap (pun intended) they did it… these are solid state batteries manufactured at scale ProLogium in Taiwan has done what no one else could do Solid state is here!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQFV...

Been using WaterFox browser for a while now. Seems legit, open source, includes ad blocking, is not owned by some megacorp. Forked from Firefox and maintained by cool people. www.waterfox.com

ChatGPT was never Google’s biggest threat; it was always its own hubris. With Search now being sacrificed on the altar of AI dominance, the time has come for users to get serious about moving off Google services. It’s not only destroying its products; it’s trying to further degrade the web itself.

Good explainer for anyone catching up on the full details of this leak of Alberta's electoral list to the separatists... It's bad folks... it's really bad... www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yX5...

Just some ducks by the river for today Mama mallard was looking very regal in the morning light ❤️

Lucky to have this copilot for all these years! ❤️

Turns out poor people spent a lot of money on tea and sugar *because they were poor* and that was their inadequate replacement for unaffordable things like cooking fuel, food with actual nutritional content, and enough calories to slave away over a loom for 12 hours.

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

Rosa Parks gets the boot from Alberta’s education system.

In case you missed it, Utrecht, Netherlands has begun building the largest Dutch “car-free” neighbourhood. 12K people 6K homes 1.8K social rental homes 1.5 mid-range rental & affordable owner-occupied homes 21.5K bike parking spaces 250 shared cars 2 parcel hubs Parking structures on the edge.

As usual, Tanya is crafting away in the basement making something awesome 🤩 She made a clay “painting” for the upcoming release of #TheLongDark Ep. 5 that she’s been working on over the last year So proud of you @manta-rain.bsky.social and congrats to everyone at @hinterland.bsky.social 🎉

Huge result here and the CA jury still deliberating. The idea that social platforms are defective products is going to pick up a lot of steam: www.theverge.com/policy/89991...

People have been trying to argue that the only thing that matters is your tires… I’m glad technology is proving that traction control is also amazing for handling ice… finally… (I’ve known this since 2015 though 😅)

Gifting this out so everyone can hear about how bad DLSS 5 is 🫠 www.theverge.com/entertainmen...

Subnautica devs v. Krafton ruling is ABSOLUTELY stunning. Start at the top of page 32 and read until the end of that section on page 37. Krafton CEO was warned by their legal personnel to not follow ChatGPT into what is likely Some Of The Dumbest Legal Shit Ever, CEO believed the plagiarism bot.

Trump is looking for help with the Strait of Hormuz. He’s not having much luck. www.vox.com/the-logoff-n...

I get almost as many comments about how ugly or fat I am on my workout posts as I did on my posts before I started lifting. I’m not asking for sympathy. I just want to remind Black women that the point isn’t if we are pretty or skinny or not. The point is they want us to not exist.🙄

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Oh this some next level stanky fraud 💩 The Gnome about to become the fall guy for agent orange 🍊

Anyway all of this is endemic of the mode through which we monetize video game development. It's shifted to offloading risk from the wealthy publisher that can afford it (tencent) to the poorer developer that cannot (wildlight) we don't have to make games like that aftermath.site/indie-game-p...

Trump's trying to find the guy who did this.

They literally spent the past 4-plus years blasting Biden over the withdrawal from Afghanistan and how "rushed" it was.

1. The Supreme Court just handed down its 5th anti-trans decision in less than a year. It could lead to forced outing of trans youth across the country, with 40 cases pending that it may impact. It also forces CA teachers to misgender some trans students. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Watched this tonight, it’s old, but new for me Hope someone else can enjoy it as well youtu.be/g02Ss3xgABc

The West can recognize it was a mistake for Ukraine to give up its nuclear weapons because it left the door open to the invasion from Russia, but will not accept that countries like Iran and North Korea desire them to stop Western meddling and attacks.

I am normal and can be trusted with a costco membership

Given how problematic Boy Scouts was when I was a kid, I’m not all that surprised they’re capitulating It’s sad though, my Dad was a troop leader and actively fought against bigoted ideas like this within our community Scouts returning to its hyper Christian roots… so disappointing 😔

Given that “AI” is backed by the richest people in the world… I think they can handle “solidly negative” and anyone arguing otherwise is should reevaluate why they they’re shilling so hard for billionaires who couldn’t care less about them In short: critique “AI” hard… they deserve it

This is it, right here, right now. The whole game. All his voter suppression, gerrymandering, and other election cheating has led to this. If Trump takes over elections, it’s game over for democracy in the United States. If the people aren’t willing to shut down the country over this, it’s over.

This is not a good day for anyone to lecture me on how he can’t do this.

In case any of you wondering if it’s safe to have a robot vacuum in 2026 www.popsci.com/technology/r...

A Nashville comedian created a fake ICE deportation tip line. Neighbors, coworkers and even a kindergarten teacher called in—trying to get families deported. Drew Harwell sits down with Sam Stein to discuss how a viral stunt became a window into America’s darkest impulses.

And now tech billionaires are trying to convince every dev to build their software with tools based off the ideas of these horrible people… What could go wrong?! 😑 🫠

Here is @aoc.bsky.social thankfully telling everyone exactly what to do to stop a concentration camp from being built where you live. Please take it to heart and take action.

A clearer picture of how the 2024 election was illegally rigged for Trump in GA is emerging. Elon Musk sends tens of thousands of prefilled absentee ballots ahead of the election, boosting Trump's early voting. Election day, Russia targets majority black precincts with bomb threats. 1/

This is interesting from the ESA Canada's "power of play" report. Look at that even distribution!

Hitting the nail on the head We should not be expected to decentralize everything through self hosting All that does is fragment communities into oblivion Activism to change the centralized shared spaces is probably required…

Hey Europe if we don't act with our purchases against our best enemies and existential threats , don't come back and cry. We have enough pb trying to figure out Tech alternatives, but for cars, come on.
