Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

Sweet Jeebus: German tech news reports that personal details of the entire WhatsApp userbase (3.5b accounts) were available online, unencrypted. Austrian researchers tried unsuccessfully to alert Meta to this, and Meta only reacted after they’d scraped the entire dataset.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

True, but actually, every day with him in the White House is “absolutely disgusting,” “embarrassing,” and a “shit stain on the presidency.”

Extremely upset that a throw-away XKCD joke somehow became the organizing principle for the Internet.

DC absolutely needs statehood so that the people who live there aren't ruled by goons they never elected. A genuine ongoing scandal and absolute betrayal of the principles of the country.

I can’t get over how giddy Trump was in the company of Prince Mohammed bin Salman. He only really happy when he’s in the company of rich murderers (MBS) and rapists (Epstein). Just sickening.

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

🚨BREAKING: Federal prosecutors admitted Wednesday that the grand jury handling the criminal case against former FBI Director James Comey never reviewed or voted on the final indictment used to charge him — a virtually unprecedented revelation that could topple the entire case.

Trump has always been and will always be a f**king traitor. And a child rapist phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/trump-was-...

It's like Barr tanking the mueller report 2.0. Deliberately release some crumbs that don't incriminate him. Eventually when the whole thing gets out, the media will have already told everyone the president is innocent, and will allow him to spin it as a witch hunt

A former Palantir exec just published an extortion letter in the Washington Post: Democrats must fund tech oligarchs, abandon antitrust, and create 15 deregulated corporate zones—or “lose.” When I challenged her, she blocked me. Tech’s moral rot, exposed: www.thenerdreich.com/silicon-vall...

Torturing myself by watching Vance's Ole Miss q&a. Everyone got riled up about the hug, but look at this kid flashing a white power symbol and Vance guffawing.

NEW: US airlines (Delta, United, American, etc) will shut down a program in which it sold hundreds of millions of your flight records to government agencies, including ICE, FBI, ATF, more. Comes after intense lawmaker-pressure and 404 Media's months-long reporting www.404media.co/airlines-wil...

If you are able to look at this and still not see the Gestapo. You have not only failed at the Christian you say you are. You have failed at being a human. You are the person who turned away when children were being murdered in gas chambers. It didn’t start in gas chambers.

This is one of the most laughably stupid things I’ve read in a long time. This judge must be on the take. “A federal judge ruled Tuesday that the company’s purchases of Instagram and WhatsApp didn’t stifle competition” Meta wins antitrust fight over Instagram and WhatsApp qz.com/meta-antitru...

In 2028 I will vote for whoever will send Stephen Miller to The Hague.

I just watched the whole video, and not a single reporter stood up for her. Everyone just pivoted to asking questions on other topics. This is shameful.

What is crazy is that the EU has not used article 7 to suspend Hungary's vote and veto power, and take steps to sanction Hungary for Orban's blatant propagation of Kremlin propaganda and disregard for the democratic values that were the precursor to initial membership. @ec.europa.eu #Hungary

🧵1/ Europe is experiencing a hybrid war. Russia is targeting not only military and commercial infrastructure and security systems but our health systems. In our new paper in the European Journal of Public Health, @charlottemar.bsky.social & I spell out the implications @eupha.bsky.social

We are $38 trillion in debt, but the “fiscal conservatives” want giveaways to bail them out in the midterms.

"The fact that JD Vance has openly cited Curtis Yarvin as an inspiration and that Thiel is the person most responsible for creating Vance as a politician should be viewed as a national emergency." My comments to @thorbenson.bsky.social madness.ghost.io/we-need-to-t...

Democrats spent 3 hours per evening for 4 nights in a row on prime time television on every major network LITERALLY READING PROJECT 2025 TO AMERICA. 77 million people wanted it & another ~85 million didn't give a shit.

New information here on how Trump has turned the Department of Justice—which is supposed to work on your behalf—into his own personal law firm, punishing his enemies and rewarding his friends. "Worse than Watergate" doesn't begin to cover it. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Epstein survivors just dropped a powerful message for Congress, and it hits like a warning: no more waiting, the truth is coming, ready or not. Watch till the end @housedemocrats.bsky.social @houserepublicans.bsky.social

Oh look there is the Thiel and Musk-funded dropout boy who paid to freeze his brain *before* he dies telling us AI will "automate science"; another fantastic piece by @carolecadwalla.bsky.social broligarchy.substack.com/p/the-great-...

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

THAT'S LITERALLY HOW THE SUBSIDIES & ACA EXCHANGES WORK ALREADY. CONSUMERS ARE INFORMED BY COMPARING POLICIES ON THE ACA EXCHANGES, THEN THEY PURCHASE ONE AND THE GOVERNMENT PAYS SOME OR ALL OF THE COST OF THAT POLICY. I'M TEARING THE LITTLE HAIR I HAVE ON MY HEAD OUT.

Via @eschatonblog.com, jaw-dropping stuff from the Catholic League. All these years of Comet Pizza hysteria & it comes down to the meaning of girl. www.catholicleague.org/megyn-kelly-...

This is actually worse than you might imagine because it becomes a screed against calling child-fucking priests “pedophiles.”

The ultrawealthy live lives in which literally the only human beings they ever come in contact with are either other rich freaks or people who are being paid to serve them. Of course that turns them into sociopaths. How could it not? www.wsj.com/lifestyle/tr...

Apparently the lesson Brendan Carr learned from the Kimmel debacle is that he didn't actually have any consequences for abusing his power to violate the 1st Amendment, so he's just going to keep at it.

Nothing to worry about, just the chief regulator of the media pressuring a television network to fire a critic of the president.

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

Senator Menendez is sitting in his cell at Allenwood right now because he took a 1kg gold bar from the Egyptians, among other forms of “lobbying.”

Hey Megyn Kelly, 14-year-old Eloise would like a word: “If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good… because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.” Sound up! 🔥🔊 1/2

Nuzzi's fawning coverage of the sociopathic conspiracy crank she was having an affair with aided his rise to political power, which he is using to perpetrate the worst intentional public health catastrophe of our unnecessarily shortened lifetimes, and THAT is the STORY.

Since 15 Sept IFTAS has tracked a network of over 300 Mastodon accounts engaged in a high-volume propaganda campaign, promoting pro-Russian narratives: https://about.iftas.org/2025/10/05/coordinated-pro-russian-propaganda-network-targeting-activitypub-and-atproto-services/

guess who was Florida State Attorney General from 2010 to 2019 in the final years of Epstein's child sex trafficking ring based in Palm Beach, Florida it was Pam Bondi, guess what's she's doing now

Trump was a subject in 72% of the Epstein email threads. Data visualization by WSJ: www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Dems can say: Are you really sure you want to trust Trump, of all people, when he tells you that what he’s directing you to do is lawful, and that you’ll be protected later as a result? That’s a tenuous position for anyone to put themselves into—and Dems should not hesitate to say so.

Shooting, beating, assaulting and arresting Christian priests and rabbis is a Kristi Noem specialty. Today at Broadview.

This stuff is so crazy. Trump is now just letting his allies that helped him nearly overthrow the government take turns stealing taxpayer money. Playing us all for suckers. The corruption of this regime will leave an indelible mark on our nation. 🇺🇸 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.

Basically saying "if you do crime for me, I won't only pardon you--I'll give you millions of dollars of public money." Truly unprecedented level of corruption www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

A massive corruption scandal is brewing in Nevada: it appears the Republican Governor's office stepped in to cover for Elon Musk's Boring Company after safety violations caused two firefighters to suffer chemical burns. Even worse? It looks like they deleted evidence of their meetings!
