Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

As a supervising attorney, I am here to tell young lawyers that AI is absolutely a threat to your career. I do not mean that it will replace you. I mean that if you use it, you increase the risk that another attorney will replace you when you are fired. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast' 10/10 response, no notes

I’m absolutely exhausted in the best possible way. I love us. We did it! #NoKings

In about three years the entire university pivot to AI curricula and schools and programs is going to be so deeply embarrassing. We will all pretend it never happened and I will be standing there, looking at people with a mirror in my eyes. This is all so embarrassing.

What The Hell Is Going On, a thread: I’ve seen some thinkpieces and posts about Portland protests that fail to understand the long-term hyperspecificity of Portland culture/humor, and frame it as a sort of shitposting meme-pilled ironic thing. Which is wrong. So I’m gonna give you my breakdown.

“Deloitte “misused AI and used it very inappropriately: misquoted a judge, used references that are non-existent,” Pocock told Australian Broadcasting Corp. “I mean, the kinds of things that a first-year university student would be in deep trouble for.”” 👀 fortune.com/2025/10/07/d...

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...

The Department of Energy has added these terms to its growing “list of words to avoid” because words are dangerous: climate change green decarbonization emissions energy transition sustainability sustainable clean energy dirty energy carbon footprint CO₂ footprint tax breaks tax credits subsidies

Effect of tariffs I've seen — Higher clothing prices overall — Overseas sellers covering tariff costs, but passing cost to the consumer — US stores dropping brands. Example: No Man Walks Alone won't be carrying Norbit this fall bc tariff uncertainty — Fewer deals. Ebay shuts down overseas sellers

Here's what the new co-owner of TikTok US and existing co-owner of the Tony Blair Institute (the 'let's do digital ID' guys) had to say this time last year. This is who's dictating and planning to profit from mandatory government digital ID, starting with immigrants and expanding to everyone else.

When you consider the *ecocide* alongside the genocide being perpetrated in Gaza, you begin to grasp the totality of the Israeli state’s attempt to eliminate both the Palestinians and their homeland. My column today. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Just a reminder that mifepristone is incredibly safe and has been approved by the FDA for a quarter of a century. You can purchase medication abortion (mifepristone and misoprostol) online and have it shipped to your home through @aidaccess.bsky.social. Mifepristone has a shelf life of 5 years.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Soviel zu einseitiger Förderung der Regierung: „Dass ein Verein direkt eine institutionelle Förderung erhält, gilt als ungewöhnlich. Üblicherweise beantragt er zunächst eine Projektförderung.“ Auch sind 250.000/Jahr richtig viel bei Förderung ThinkTank. www.tagesspiegel.de/politik/staa...

Zusammen mit dem Monitoring-Bericht zur Energiewende hat Katherina Reiche in der letzten Woche einen Zehn-Punkte-Plan vorgestellt. Dieser weist sprachlich wie inhaltlich große Ähnlichkeiten zu einem Papier von RWE und Eon aus dem Frühjahr auf. Ein längerer Thread mit Links und Beispielen. (1/19)

Isn’t the guy telling you that Tylenol use during pregnancy will lead to autism the same one that recommended to inject bleach into your veins to treat COVID?

Hannah Arendt über die Gleichschaltung. "Das persönliche Problem war doch nicht etwa, was unsere Feinde taten, sondern was unsere Freunde taten."

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

genuinely believe that a large number of political, economic and media elites do not realize that nearly half the voting public did not vote for trump

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

NEW: The Pentagon told journalists it will require them to pledge they won’t gather any information — even unclassified — that hasn’t been expressly authorized for release, and will revoke the press credentials of those who do not obey. @washingtonpost.com

Das rechtsextreme Gedankengut der AfD sickert Schritt für Schritt in unsere Schulen – weil diese sich nicht wehren & Lehrer*innen oft alleine lassen. Die Strategie: Über solche kleinen Anfragen einschüchtern. Funktioniert gut & auf TikTok gibts dann für die Kids den geballten rechtsextremen Rest.

Das, was derzeit meinen Kollegen @dunjahayali.de und Elmar Theveßen widerfährt, dürfte z.T. auch eine orchestrierte Kampagne sein. In den digitalen Kloaken genügt es ja, jemanden zu markieren und dann wird das zum Selbstläufer, in rechtsfreien Räumen, denen sich bislang keine Kraft entgegenstellt. 🧵

So Elon spends $1 billion on Tesla shares. His purchase drives up investor confidence and further boosts share value. Rising Tesla share value is integral to his new compensation package, which could end up making him the first trillionaire. Is it any wonder why so many think the game is rigged?

43 Milliarden Euro. So hoch waren die wirtschaftlichen Folgen von Dürren, Überschwemmungen und Hitzewellen in Europa diesen Sommer. Ja, wirklich, Milliarden. Das zeigt eine Untersuchung der Uni Mannheim zusammen mit der EZB. www.uni-mannheim.de/news/extreme...

A new study finds dozens of heat waves would be "virtually impossible" without the activity of major fossil fuel producers, including oil companies.

Verstehe ich das richtig: 1 Faschist ermordet 1 Faschisten, weil der ihm nicht faschistisch genug ist, aber wir sollen über Linksradikalismus reden?

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

Musk is inciting violence on London's streets.Tommy Robinson is financed by US tech bros. These are all very direct attempts to destabilise the British state. Starmer needs to stand up to this. A government that doesn't defend its country's values against these blatant attacks is not doing its job.

What they want is regime change in Europe. And the U.K. is just the first stop.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

Good that the Guardian is calling Kirk “far right” and showings its readers his views - not “common sense”, not “conservative”, but far right conspiracy. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The markings that supposedly expressed “transgender ideology” were………..a series of arrows.

Thanks to @amwadoctors.bsky.social and @drsforamerica.bsky.social for forming the Reproductive Health Coalition that makes events like last night possible and also helps train folks to have difficult conversations about repro in order to move the needle. www.amwa-doc.org/reproductive...

Faculty in red states are being punished for failing to signal in their course descriptions that their classes will include content on "gender ideology." Remind me again which party was appalled by idea of "trigger warnings"? www.kbtx.com/2025/09/09/a...

“These are not typical requests from a health secretary to a C.D.C. director. Not even close. None of us would have agreed to the secretary’s demands, and we applaud Dr. Monarez for standing up for the agency and the health of our communities.” Op-ed written by 9 former CDC directors! 🧪 #IDsky
