spending money on bandcamp is different because it doesn't make me feel like shit

oh lawd we goin viral

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

I have in my hands definitive evidence that my opponent has committed a world-historic evil. Evidence that, were it to be released to the public, would cause his supporters to abandon him and his entire world to crumble to dust. I therefore have no choice but to give in to every one of his demands

If there’s a problem with your ballot, your vote can still be counted. The deadline is 4:30 p.m. Nov. 24. And this election, it might matter more than in most.

I can’t get over how perfectly Silicon Valley predicted “agentic AI” in 2019 lol

Exactly. When I hear this argument, I like to reframe it in the context of *options* in our transportation system. Not everyone can cycle—true—but nor can everyone drive, walk, ride the bus, etc. which is why it’s important to design for all of these. They are not mutually exclusive!

For the love of god start YOUR OWN email list. Stop letting Substack grift off of you

There's gonna be daily fake AI videos of subway violence running on Fox News. I'm willing to bet they'll do a segment on NYC crime at least 3 nights a week after January 1 when they swear in Zohran.

Think about how the left told Biden, and then Kamala, that their campaign would 100% lose if they did the exact opposite of what Mamdani's would be. They literally plugged their ears and said shut the fuck up, and then she lost by doing the exact opposite, in every way on every issue, of Mamdani.

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani. The president and his allies came after him. Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute. He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters. His politics can win anywhere.

holy fuck

I’m in Renton and this person has their cat stuck down a long shaft in a crawl space and they tried the fire department, animal control, and HVAC companies and no one will help them. If you’re in Renton and can help go to the Rose Cafe and tell the woman at the register you can help.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

I do not wish to learn about the "protocols" of the social media site I am on. I just want to make lil jokes with my friends and not see nazis. Why is this so hard for anyone who makes a social media site to understand

i am very sick of pretending conservatives have an argument that should be respected

🎙️ Y’all. #WeekWithoutDriving starts TODAY. And. For millions of people. It is EVERY DAY. 🎙️ For those who primarily drive ➡️ do try to 👏replace 👏 those 👏 trips - all week, a couple of days, one day. More decision-making bodies (and the driving public) need to FEEL what it’s like.

it really feels like iOS 26 needed a few more betas. pretty rough around the edges in some surprising ways

If you wrote a "Trump distances himself from project 2025" story in 2024 you are either a dupe or one of our enemies. They are cackling with laughter that the media they're now destroying enthusiastically helped them dupe the voters

anyone who says the fcc threatening to pull licenses of networks for jokes the president doesn't like is comparable to facebook taking the government's suggestion to remove posts saying bleach cures covid is not making a serious argument. they know they are being stupid and simply don't care.

I know they don't give a shit about hypocrisy but it still always just strikes me how the "free speech" crowd is totally chill with the government straight up getting a show cancelled and publicly demanding an apology and bribe. But we all know they just want free speech to say slurs.

technology used to be cool, but now it’s owned by the worst, most moneysick humans on the planet. but there are transsexual furry hackers out there still fighting the good fight

In honor of Jimmy Kimmel get suspended in part for saying "And by ‘statistical fact’, [Vance] means ‘complete bullshit’,” in response to Vance's false claim that most political violence is from the left, here's the DOJ report showing the opposite, that the DOJ conveniently just memory-holed:

I am once again asking github to add a search to their ever-growing settings page

I want to meet whoever put together this year’s Spirit Halloween display. There’s some serious attention to detail and appreciation of the NYC Subway’s design language

BREAKING: Sound Transit expects to conduct its first LIVE WIRE test on the I-90 bridge TONIGHT, at around 11pm. "A single light rail vehicle will travel at incremental speeds between 10 and 55 mph to test power systems between Mercer Island and Judkins Park stations, including the I-90 bridge."

Checking one last time before I go to sleep… nope, hasn’t happened yet

Deport would mean they are sending him to his country of origin. This is trafficking.

My bicycle was just stolen in Capitol Hill Seattle. Please keep an eye out for a small sized Salsa Vaya, green bicycle with a rear rack, steel fenders, dynamo hubs, 26” wheels. Parked at a bike rack at 15th and Pike. Saw my lock cut and thrown on the ground.

I exported my google search history and even when I was 13 I wasn't safe from the peril of trying to regex email addresses

among other things, it is not actually illegal to be homeless or mentally ill in public

yeah

Microsoft employees occupy headquarters in protest of Israel contracts. The protest encampment started today, and it’s the biggest escalation of the protests at Microsoft so far www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

I do not have confidence in "our technology is totally profitable on any reasonable timescale" when the answer to "how do we afford it" is "we turn the solar system into computronium and use the entire sun as an energy source for it" even if it were possible without breaking the laws of physics.

Any legislator who complies with this is worth nothing to you. They will not fight for you. They will simply comply with the fascist conquest of our nation and our system of laws. If you, a state legislator, accept NEEDING A PERMISSION SLIP TO LEAVE THE CAPITOL BUILDING, you are nothing.
