Caligula’s poetics.

This story is WILD. Juan Orlando Hernandez, the Honduran ex-president pardoned by Trump for narcotrafficking, seemingly caught on tape in dozens of conversations (if true), discussing plans with GOP and other figures to attack left-wing governments, and saying Israel paid for his pardon from Trump.

“That's all fair enough, but what this discussion misses is that these things (#AI systems) are corporate products designed to make money. That's it.” Wrong! These things are also military products - ignoring this is either naive, ignorant or just dishonest.

I was warning about the risk of learning management systems to students and academics privacy for many years, and a real focus on security and independent auditing was considered alarmist and extreme. This story is just a drop

“Trump’s tariffs have done ‘significant damage’ to the U.S. economy, says Moody’s chief economist”

Trump was always explicit about his demented fascist plans, and he was elected by the American voters - and re-elected. In case anyone is still curious about what 'again' stands for in MAGA, here's the explanation, from its source: riots, violence, chaos and destruction. He delivers on this one.

Quick. Make this technology compulsory to classrooms. It’s magical! #highered

“Sunlight has to travel 93 million miles to reach the Earth, but none of those miles go through the Strait of Hormuz,” says Bill McKibben.

Taxpayers get the risk and costs of investments and fossil fuel corporations get the profits. The business model protected by #auspol

"The US has lost its moral authority for good."

It’s astounding that Zelensky survived a full-scale war without ever having a ballroom.

Relocating to serve their new ally, Russia?

The American administration is extraordinarily hostile to European countries, against UK, Australia, Canada, Brazil, Colombia etc. The only country never criticised and threatened by USA is Russia! This new alliance is the real axis of evil; those ignoring stubbornly this fact will pay the most.

Reports indicate that Iran’s navy & military capabilities are not “destroyed”: “Iran’s IRGC still has 60 percent of its naval capabilities, while roughly half of Iran’s ballistic missiles and launchers remained at the start of the ceasefire” Trump turns fast the US military from might to ridicule

They’re doing all they can - for Russia.

MOULTON: How much has Iran profited from your administration lifting the sanctions? HEGSETH: Iran is financially devastated right now MOULTON: They've earned about $14 billion. Does that sound like winning?

☢️ Russians now know where NATO's "nuclear" is hidden in Europe: American pilots accidentally leaked secret location data into public applications, writes Bellingcat The leak includes information from 6 key US and NATO bases in Europe: in Italy, Turkey, Netherlands, Belgium and Germany.

This is so stupid, cynical, and populist that even Maurizio Cattelan seems downright sophisticated by comparison. It’s the art market’s equivalent of AI slop, and it’s a disgrace for a public museum – let alone the Neue Nationalgalerie – to exhibit such crap

Interesting, but… a tone deaf audience, too late, and too subtle for a country so far off the cliff. Unfortunately.

Protesters storm stage before Anthony Albanese speaks in front of some of his bosses. Every employee’s nightmare #auspol

America, in a short clip

Israel and Russia, united in their acts of dehumanisation, genocide, war crimes and all other horrors.

Take the “Republic” out; it is just Banana.

I read this first as “some career military bigot”, and now I’m sure that it would be much more accurate

A jury unanimously disagreed

According to the Lebanese National News Agency, these panels supply the town with electricity, which is needed for its water supply, and Israel destroyed homes, roads and olive trees as well.

You had one job...

Iran caused more extensive damage to U.S. military bases than publicly known - "far worse than publicly acknowledged"

Good morning☕ at #Bluesky 💙🤝 #Europe #FBPE ‼️ 👇 WAKE UP EUROPE ⏰ Volodymyr Tretyak 🇺🇦 @VolodyaTretyak · 1h Emmanuel #Macron #France 👇 “This is a unique moment where a #US president, a #Russian president, and a #Chinese president are dead against the #Europeans. Wake up.” 1-3 ‼️ .

Firing squad executions and gas chambers. Barbarism, idiocy and savagery. USA is working hard to make the 21st century go in reverse. Abysmally dark.

The EU Council president “also warned that leaders can’t avoid facing the reality that U.S. interests are no longer in line with the EU’s” They slowly start to see it now, but lost a lot of valuable time with delusional appeasing. No vision & no wisdom.

“We have experienced this type of racism for over 230-odd years. It really is a whitefulla problem, not a blackfulla problem.” I hope to live the day when those fuelling the rise of fascism will pay for all their crimes.

“Intelligence” (IQ) carries a lot of fascism in Trump’s public discourse, and this should attract a lot more attention in the “age of AI”. Universities are in an AI induced psychosis, so… #eugenics

Corrupt Clowns to the left of us Fascists to the right Here we are, stuck in the middle with them... 🎵🎶🎵

It's 2026; considering how the President of the USA is speaking and writing & the average levels of literacy in America, it is a mystery what - or if any coherent - language is used there. So sure, call that "American". The article is (probably) less idiotic and jingoistic than it looks.

UK increased AI emissions forecast 100-fold because who really needs a planet where we can live?

The clown said, with a hand on the Tarantino’s Bible…

World Cup visitors to U.S. ‘vulnerable to serious harm’, civil rights organisations warn www.nytimes.com/athletic/721...

Reform UK candidates said that Nazis were ‘real visionaries’, another said that immigrants are “breeding like rats”, posted blackface memes, etc. The latest YouGov survey shows that 27 per cent of British voters intend to vote for this party. The rise of fascism was long denied & reached this point.

The guy who’s even more extreme than Orban on immigration wants to revive a project from *checks notes* 19th century, which fell apart after it caused a catastrophic world war. What can go wrong?

The KKK President of the United States

The Volksempfänger (German “people’s receiver”) was a range of low-cost radio receivers produced in Nazi Germany, developed by engineer Otto Griessing at the request of Joseph Goebbels, the Reich Minister of Propaganda. That was the 1930’s nazi Twitter and Goebbels was the 1930’s Musk.

United States in a poor state? Perception v. Reality Check. Time to Dump the Trump? #MAGA

USA bombs schools

I never imagined that I would read the sentence “barbed wire blocks kids from class” in any other context than stories about the Nazis & horrors of the Holocaust. “When the children tried to go around the fence, soldiers launched tear gas and sound grenades at children as young as five years old.”

How dare teachers care about knowledge and education when all we need are new cogs in the capitalist machine, employees trained on public money so they are able to secure and increase profits for a few private pockets? "Soft skills" sounds so much better than complex exploitation.

If interested where are Edward “Big Balls” Coristine and other DOGE executioners now...
