Hide ya kids hide ya wife I've got one of those Welches Grape Juice® energy drinks, A Guide to The Massachusetts Public Records Law open in three different tabs, none of which I can find, and I just spelled lisence correctly

French Member of the European Parliament Emma Fourreau says her assistant’s sailboat was struck by an explosion during ongoing drone attacks on the flotilla, destroying the jib. Drones continue their assault on the mission.

"Rather than encouraging personal growth and preparing detainees for reentry, the tablet largely serves as a digital pacifier."

Popcorn emoji "Whenever I blog/tweet about bogus NYTimes cybersecurity stories, I point out this relationship with James Lewis. When you see anonymous government officials and James Lewis quoted in a NYTimes story, you are seeing government propaganda."

Because I feel strongly that the 1A is referring to the printing press which is an inanimate object, and also that doesn't change much, these professions are mentioned before that line, in order of appearance: authors, inventors, pirates, felons, slave traders, kings, princes, slaves, slave owners.

Calling bluff, @massago.bsky.social. Sue me. If you’re serious that you need info I’m allegedly not providing—let’s have a court sort it out. Happy to meet you there to answer more questions so you’ll enforce the law. #mapoli

Since 1970 there have been 15 candidates who ran unopposed and received less than 50% of cast votes. Vote Blank! electionstats.state.ma.us/elections/se...

70% of elected officials ran unopposed in Massachusetts last year. #mapoli electionstats.state.ma.us/elections/se... electionstats.state.ma.us/elections/se...

I slept on this but a thing you can put almost anywhere in the world that does not require much human labor & big tech is burning pallets of money in an open pit to generate power for seems like a weird thing to make tax exempt? Not an economist tho. www.morganlewis.com/pubs/2025/01...

On Monday, I reported the UCLA Faculty Assn. filed suit in California state court to get UC to release the proposed settlement the Trump administration submitted to UCLA. Because of court delays, a copy of the suit was not available. I've now uploaded it: www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Does anyone besides Greene have a source for this 2023 statement from Antifa?

Oldie but a goodie for which I cannot locate a screenshot ```ANTIFA SUPERSOLDIER UPDATE: my cumbersome mech suit is too large to fit through the door to Arby’s.```

Made another dumb web scraper because hampdendeeds.com doesn't expose an easy way to download records except one by one. Takes a url for the site's search results or a csv of addresses as an input. Outputs pdf with text (site provides only TIF images). github.com/JonGerhardso...

Anyone in the Windsor Connecticut area know what's up with this? www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/local/p...

I made a simple Firefox extension that redirects google searches to the "web" results page so you don't have to see the AI overview at the top. (screenshot below is with it toggled off lol) addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo...

NEW: Internal report reveals DHS intelligence portal was accidentally opened to tens of thousands of users for months, exposing sensitive intel about Americans. @brennancenter.org obtained the docs. @wired.com has the story. 🧵 www.wired.com/story/a-dhs-...

Read our new report The Internet Coup. The Great Firewall Export investigation is a joint collaboration with @amnesty.org, @papertrailmedia.de, @justiceformyanmar.org, @theglobeandmail.com, @ftm.eu, @derstandard.at and @torproject.org interseclab.org/research/the... .

we are sinking way too many labor hours into creating software to summarize zoom meetings and way too few into adding translation features to the Merlin app i KNOW that's a blue jay what is she HOLLERING ABOUT

I ironically vibe coded a firefox extension to disable AI overviews in google search results, after learning that was a thing you could do for the first time ~30 minutes ago. Too lazy to make a developer account rn so you can only load it as a temporary extension. github.com/JonGerhardso...

You could literally just toss meth in any (open) fire, or destroy it even more easily without using fire at all, but for some reason the FBI used an animal carcass incinerator in a negatively pressurized animal shelter to smoke 2 pounds of meth with all the staff and animals in the building

The University of California, Berkeley, said on Friday that it provided the names of students, faculty and staff in cases of alleged antisemitism to the federal government, complying with the Trump administration’s investigation of universities it has accused of failing to protect Jewish students.

Context if anyone cares. I'll post the full exemption letter this weekend jonathangerhardson.substack.com/p/chicopee-p...

This is a weird position/self-dox for the Chicopee police department to take because a list of all certified police officers is already publicly available. I'm struggling to imagine how they keep this going without refusing to provide badge numbers for the rest of their officers, in perpetuity.

It is incredible that the most downloaded exiftool app on the Play Store, commonly used to remove gps metadata from photos, requires location permission to even open

Yesterday's UMass Boston drama began when somebody found a doll with a caution label attached to it www.universalhub.com/2025/yesterd... #Boston #Dorchester

Oh my God. A contractor for the state of #Massachusetts used AI to score MCAS standardized tests. It resulted in incorrect scores on about 1,400 tests, which had to be rescored. #mapoli

What happened with the star trek guy btw I'm confused

Stopped reading the news for a few days and have returned feeling like the only remaining signal of authenticity is ametuer photographs of regional casseroles on Wikipedia

Can't tell if this is because my last post was a hastily typed how-to on a boring technical thing, or because I used Emilio Estevez as the header photo but tough crowd I guess (5 people). jonathangerhardson.substack.com
