If you tell a vendor that they cannot have blanket permission to use photos of you or your home for social media, I say about 60% would rather not take your money. One day I will work out how I think this parallels with politics but for now just know I think we are living in a hellscape. Thank you.

Why do tech billionaires want server farms in orbit? So that they don't have to deal with communities trying to defend their energy grids, water supplies and well being: www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/techno...

I do not know what is going on at CBS, but apparently the great white stag has come out to observe over the goings on? IDK. Seems serious.

Today I was Kidnapped By ICE - Dawokefarmer

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later.

When I get up to go to the bathroom the Rockweiller insist on doing this.

Lego orchids are way harder to kill than the real ones.

I have never done anything that long.

Beautiful hawk in Central Park.

Today is one of those days where I’m struck anew by how *bad* the internet has gotten. It’s almost unusable. Clouds, apps, advertising — nothing is where it should be and it’s nigh impossible sometimes to do basic tasks online.

I setup YouTube, Apple, and Spotify for my new podcast today as part of my #gtm motion -- it sure is interesting how different these services are. naftiko.github.io/go-to-market...

First ride of the year, it has been way too cold.

I say "the devil is in the details" a lot. I recently learned that this historically was "god is in the details", until the 1960s saying "devil is in the details" was popularized.

French Foreign Ministry: “The removal of Maduro from power and the violation of sovereignty constitute a serious act of aggression against the dignity of the Venezuelan people and their right to determine their own future.

It is actually not okay to take over another country

We were told the boat killings were about drugs, not regime change. We were told a land invasion of Venezuela would require congressional authorization. We were told the U.S. would not be starting wars. All lies.

A remarkable trend that will come as a shock to you if your only info about NYC is from this Fox News. Homicides in NYC... 1990: 2,262 1993: 1,927 1998: 629 2001: 649 2013: 335 2019: 320 2021: 488 2024: 382 2025 (as of 12/28): 302

New York City has a new mayor

BREAKING: After legal setbacks, President Trump says he's dropping push for the National Guard in Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland for now.

I don't think most Americans have any idea how dangerous it is for a president to declare an entire ethnic group to be "garbage." This is how the worst atrocities in human history have begun.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Steves purchased the property to prevent it from closing. Many homeless people had come to depend on the Lynnwood Hygiene Center, which had operated rent-free on the property since 2020. n.pr/3MKbmJH
