Sorry, but if I find out that you hooked an AI agent up to a signal chat you’re in, I’m never trusting you with anything ever again

NJ lawmakers introduce the FUCK ICE Act. The bill "permits civil action for violations of US Constitution related to immigration enforcement."

there's a lot of reason to doubt him! 1. the Nazi tattoo! 2. keeping the Nazi tattoo! 3. lying about the Nazi tattoo! 4. only covering up the Nazi tattoo after backlash! 5. he's written racist and misogynist things on the Internet! 6. HE'S SEEKING MORE POWER & HAS EVERY INCENTIVE TO LIE

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

So this is dystopian as hell and I can't believe this is real... AI agents are now writing takedown blog posts to shame maintainers for not accepting agent-generated PRs. github.com/matplotlib/m...

And if you’re new here, abortion bans are not just a violation of the 14th amendment, but the 1st amendment as well— both Establishment Clause AND Free Exercise Clause.

You deserve access to abortion care if you are pregnant and do not want to be. Full stop. Your reasons are your reasons and they are good enough. Abortion is healthcare and everyone deserves healthcare access.

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

Happy Tu B'Shvat to everyone but especially trees.

Man, someone sounds really mad that a bunch of Minneapolis soccer moms can manage op-sec while the Secretary of Defense texts his battle plans to the editor in chief of the Atlantic.

In evaluating the whining about “doxxing” — by which they mean identifying federal employees who killed someone under color of law - remember this administration cooperates with a large cadre of obedient bootlicker Right media that leaps to the tasks of viciously lying about anyone they kill.

As tech CEOs stay silent after two fatal shootings, 450+ workers at Google, Meta, OpenAI, Amazon, and others urge CEOs to cancel any ICE contracts and speak out (Axios) Main Link | Techmeme Permalink

Quite a change to go from "these were domestic terrorists and their killings were totally justified, heroic even" to "no one wants these people killed, how DARE you suggest trump wants this." I wonder if the press will be capable of covering this shameless flailing as a scandal

I am not a normal computer user: I am currently watching the status of a long-running backup restore by having `sudo watch ls -l /proc/$PID/fd` open in a terminal to see what file is being written.

Check it out! Test your knowledge of Judaism with my new Judaism Quiz 2! Now online as a free webform on Google (no sign in required). This is all just for fun. The questions are supposed to get harder as they go on, but you'll have to let me know if I managed to do that part successfully.

It's not hard. Speak with clarity.

This is, in my opinion, not only the correct moral/ethical/legal position but also the correct political framing. Everyone can see the agency is out of control; everyone can see that it is constantly violating human rights. "Scrap it and start over" is the moderate position.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.

OK, right here you're found the problem and please sit with this: emotions are running very high. emotional intelligence is needed in this moment in addition to logic. democrats are failing the emotional intelligence test right now and people are mad about it.

If it helps, people are mad at Democrats because many of their social media presences produce comms which address what's happening as though we're simply dealing with the consequences of going along with a bad restaurant recommendation. The food isn't just bad, we want to shut down the restaurant.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

The murderer’s name is Jonathan Ross.

This is MTG'w bill. She personally authored. It's happening now, not in the past. Spare me her redemption arc.

Yes, it’s illegal. Like changing it to Department of War, like ten thousand other things. Part of the Trump strategy is to break the law and convey “the rule of law is weak and feminine and laughable and should be overridden by Our Guy.” Trump is fundamentally anti-law. /1

It’s the first night of Hanukkah and the world seems like a very dark place. But we can bring light to the darkness. We can fight for each other and make goodness, love, and community shine through. Show me your menorahs and let’s light up the timeline!

Their Christian morals are right there: the unsaved are doomed, the godless get their justly deserved punishment. And if they are saved, they will meet their reward in heaven after the administration kills them.

Christians I beg you please stop naming your organizations Hebrew words like, you have a whole tradition & language(s) & religious culture that's your own our traditions broke up a long time ago you have a lane? This is not it? and it's v confusing for me personally when I click on stuff, ok

The #WestCoastHealthAlliance continues to strongly recommend vaccines to protect our children, noting that rigorous research of millions of people in multiple countries over decades provides high quality evidence that vaccines are not linked to #autism. (1/

As we head toward the holiday season, I'd like to remind everyone that jokes are optional at family gatherings. A family can have a perfectly lovely gathering in which no one teases any other member of the family. Someone's reaction to a joke that hurts them isn't what "ruins" the gathering.

runj no longer depends on jail(8) and directly makes syscalls to set up the jail! I learned about some interesting quirks of the jail syscalls while doing this porting work and wrote it up: samuel.karp.dev/blog/2025/11...

runj 0.2.0 is out, now with the OCI Runtime Spec 1.3.0! This release officially models jails and represents a significant step toward bridging FreeBSD jails with the container ecosystem. Also, runj could use some additional contributors 😀 samuel.karp.dev/blog/2025/11...

New Jersey! Virginia!

So the first in a generation. The first since the last of the Dixiecrats retired/died

BREAKING: Pennsylvania voters approve to retain three state Supreme Court justices, NBC News projects, preserving Democrats’ 5-2 majority on the state’s high court.

And now FreeBSD jails are standardized into the OCI Runtime Specification! freebsdfoundation.org/blog/freebsd...

genuinely crazy-making how much the national press is indifferent to the verifiable fact that jd vance is buddy buddy with internet nazis, and the degree to which this is almost certainly a form of solidarity among people with a similar institution pedigree

They don't have an answer, because they don't ask the question. It is 2025. If you are a Democratic Party operative in 2025 and you aren't even looking into media ownership and propaganda effects, then you are either a conman or a mark.

(6) This idea that democrats should abandon trans people and immigrants and climate change (in 2025!) is just unconscionably dumb. Declaring “I’m focused on prescription drug prices” sounds like pandering because it IS pandering. Everyone can tell. Try standing for something. See how it feels.

Great explainer as to why the Shoah is so specifically associated with Jews, even as millions of others were targeted and murdered. Antisemitism isn't the belief that Jews are evil. It's the belief that evil is Jewish - every evil in your midst goes back to the Jews and evil must be rooted out.

The FreeBSD extensions got merged into the OCI Runtime Spec today! This is another step on the way to bringing the container ecosystem to FreeBSD. runj will add support for this soon (most of the work is already done): github.com/opencontaine...

Here is a corrected version of it. It should have any and all typos taken care of - but feel free to point out any! I want this to be squared away before I make any prints! Thanks, #JewSky for your enthusiasm!

I know folks have been talking about this for a few days now, but I just want to emphasize: the next D POTUS needs to demolish everything Trump erects Blot it all out

Oh it’s not appropriate for your program to air the president wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens? You’ll talk about it in euphemisms? Maybe call it the “crown video” and ignore the shitting part? Because that’s appropriate? Tell me, was it appropriate for the president to do it?

The Governor has signed S.B. 524–now police departments in California are at a crossroads. They can retain AI-written police report drafts themselves. Axon can change their product to make it lawful. Or police can drop Axon’s Draft One product. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
