sorry Pink Floyd, turns out that we needed education. a lot of it. all of the education, really

This is so cool to read about!

The vibe shift is so good

Microsoft, Google, Meta and Amazon paying influencers $400k-$600k to post months of AI hype content. Absolutely busted, failed industry, embarrassing era www.cnbc.com/2026/02/06/g...

Fucking wild story, there's thousands of people like this fella in ICE facilities all over the US!

Finneas is better at political messaging than 99% of the Democratic consultants in DC.

Ive watched this about 100 times. This is why the internet was invented. Right here. Peak content.

Very excited to say that 404 Media's zine about ICE Surveillance is here. If you ordered a print copy, I put it in the mail last week. If not, we of course think the info inside is very important so here's a free PDF. We also translated it into Spanish: www.404media.co/icezine/

This is a fantastic rubric.

if you dig around through this history, you will find many minorities and women contributing to crucial aspects of tech that either set the stage for today, or that we still use today. And people act like DEI is inherently bringing in bad workers! Can you imagine being that fucking stupid?

Wish there was as much talk about City's 115 charges as there is about Arsenal being better at corners than other teams

The funniest, loveliest movie mischief maker with a laugh like a melodic bell. Catherine O'Hara had such an exuberant energy & an embrace of twinkle-eyed chaos that could have caused her characters to float away. Still, she kept them tethered to earth in the most delightfully surprising ways. #RIP

We haven’t found evidence of Stingrays being used at protests in the US yet, but if you’re going to a protest, why not bring Rayhunter to be sure? Don’t forget to charge and update it, then let us know what you find! efforg.github.io/rayhunter/s...

In my latest post for Techdirt, I argued that it's time to call a spade a spade. The comparisons between what the Trump Administration is doing, and what the German Nazis did, is inescapable. And denying it just makes us more vulnerable to it.

Gonna go ahead and say this was a) inevitable and b) widely predicted, but the subhuman shitstains involved in all this c) don't care.

They're on Youtube too. Would not suggest checking it out. It's a timesink and... Aww, he's snoring!

This International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we have heavy obligations to survivors — and to the memories of 6 million Jews & millions of others murdered by Nazi hate.

Hate to be #ThatGuy but Wednesday’s champions league game a very good example of tickets being freely available for any member if you just want to get to a game. Almost every single block has tickets available. Not a surprise after yesterday and the opposition to be honest.

The declared plan is to penalise *successful* applicants by making them pay legal costs for cases they *won*. And the openly declared purpose of this costs change is to limit the ability of citizens to access justice, again, even when their rights have been breached. Hard to see how this is good.

It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.

the siege on MN is where you really see the west bank occupation tactics on us soil. constant militarized ice presence on the streets. illegal detentions, killing ppl trying to defend their neighbors & labeling them terrorists. fascism is colonialism turned inward. it’s here.

No way we let Sweden get over the line on this ahead of Ireland. Tell your friends. This isn’t just any old petition, this mechanism has EU clout.

Fucking lost it when Paul McKenna showed up!

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind. It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty. Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face. Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

I love that Wikipedia's edit history is public because it only takes two clicks to get to the very first version of the "ant" article in its entirety from 2001. Happy 25th birthday Wikipedia! You've come so far

What. A. Hero. He's damn fucking right

Gift link - we all need to read this. Shoot this Resistance into my veins! After 48 hours of torture, Dr. Christie wrote a forced confession — “the best thing I ever wrote,” he later told the BBC www.nytimes.com/2026/01/14/w...
