the fascists have been lying, cheating and changing the rules to their benefit for years. turnabout isn't just fair play, it's the only way to maintain some semblance of a civil society.

It used to be that the computer was the one blindly accepting whatever the human told them. It used to be that the source of errors was the human instructing the computer. How did it get turned around?

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

Yeah, Mackenzie Scott is a fascinating case. She is literally ignoring the SOPs of philanthropy in order to give away wealth as quickly and efficiently as possible and she’s still getting richer. At her level it is impossible not to make money. Tax billionaires, A LOT.

Yes I am victim blaming, and no I don’t care: the entire industry has used fear as the cornerstone of its marketing for years; threatening people’s way of life in the abstract while damaging the economy, stealing peoples work etc. You don’t get to walk that back just because it became real for you.

It's so funny to me that right-wingers love to pretend to love the Middle Ages and the Crusades and all that and then complain that the Pope shouldn't get involved in politics.

one of the most unambiguously evil acts of my lifetime

The plan to demonize creativity, the arts and entrepreneurship while simultaneously shoving AI products down our throats that seemingly make 99% of things worse isn't going to work. We need the robots do the laundry while the people make stuff robots can't dream of. That's a good future.

Count me among those who believe that we need to drive these fascists out of power, stooping to dirty tricks if necessary. Strip their assets, hound them out of public life, make them afraid to even express their beliefs in public. Drive them into exile before the only alternative is mass violence.

i will vote for dems who say this stuff and act on this stuff! i will give them money! i will tell my friends to do the same! it is what i want from government more than anything else right now!

call for an investigation into the president's fitness. call for the house to impeach. say you will obstruct every last bit of senate business. call for soldiers to disregard illegal orders. say you will prosecute the people who do this. say you will take their military pensions and benefits.

This showed up in my notifications, and I had to share it again.

Yes. Linux is frustrating in the way that building/drawing/writing something beautiful is frustrating Mac and Windows are frustrating in the way that using an automated customer service line is frustrating

Grim stuff. Also, I think the true danger is that any one person has that amount of power. I don’t think anyone could or should be trusted to exercise it responsibly.

"Even an elaborate cheating scheme won’t be enough to deliver Orbán victory if the polls are correct." This is a big deal, and it should give opponents of American authoritarianism hope.

Actually we should just give citizenship to every undocumented person in the United States who wants it. Walking over an imaginary line isn't some great moral atrocity. Making people live in the shadows as a permanent underclass absolutely IS.

Good morning, y'all 💜 New week ahead; hope it treats you kindly.

"I'm a cop, I don't understand the law" is the most American cop statement ever made.

ai feature implementation strategy is essentially “how annoying can we make the ui” so people accidently hit ai features so these companies can brag about how “highly used” ai features are internally

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.

Gingrich helped pave the way for Musk and other tech fascists with his combination of fake-smart “futurist” ideas and his absolutely vicious, ugly disposition. A terrible human.

people used to say "shut the fuck up about linux, jenny" but things are changing. just got done talking to @doctorvenkman.com for his podcast @culturedumpster.com about how the computer is a friend, and how installing linux is a viable alternative to the butlerian jihad big tech slop is inspiring

No really, I am not kidding when I say that the data broker industry must be destroyed: www.npr.org/2026/03/25/n...

movie about all the world's nations working together to stave off an environmental apocalypse succeeds by completely avoiding politics

And because I've seen the comparison: This is not an H.P. Lovecraft situation of "separate the art from the artist." Lovecraft is a century dead. He's not alive right now, trying to suppress records of his yacht visiting Epstein Island and swearing to make the lives of millions of ppl unlivable.

AI is the deadly whisper of capital interests that betrays the working class in order to destroy it from within, and it couldn't be more simple than that.

An unaccounted for part of the economy is how much young people virulently hate AI, despite how aggressively it's being forced on them. They realize it's making their friends dumber and ruining the world and they want nothing to do with it. From the Penn student paper: www.thedp.com/article/2026...

hell yeah

It's so funny to me when an entertainment company says "Man up." "Man up and accept shitty art!" "Man up and pay $100 for a game!" I...don't have to? www.pcgamer.com/games/action...

One of my favourite facts is that the spiky tail of a stegosaurus didn't used to have a specific name, until Gary Larson published this Far Side cartoon, at which point "thagomizer" was adopted by paleontologists.

there's a Logic quote i think about all the fuckin time. he said "the greatest rapper in the world is probably stocking produce" and the thought of it kills me. human potential has served the rich for too fuckin long, man.

You know what they say. When tourism is plummeting and oil prices inflate the cost of airfare that’s when you really want to make the process of flying as hostile as possible.

I don't want gen AI in my browser I don't want gen AI in my pc I don't want gen AI in my art I don't want gen AI in my games I don't want gen AI in my music I don't want gen AI in my movies I don't want gen AI in my books I don't want gen AI in my cart I don't want gen AI in my life

"Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence. The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society." -Joni Askola

The trajectory of tech YouTubers has been wild lately. Used to be they'd work with the companies and get regular product samples and release reviews, but now RAM is unobtanium and there won't be any new GPUs for over a year so they're all pivoting to "fuck these companies and fuck AI."

If Sinners came out in the 90s there would be an SNES and Genesis game that would be made by totally different developers. The Genesis version youd play as Smoke and you’d have a gun and in the SNES version you play as Preacherboy and you fight vampires with your guitar

Marc Andreessen talking about great men of history like dude if you’re going to be remembered for anything after you die it’ll be because your freakish skull ended up in the Mütter Museum

Billionaire groupthink is wild; they are now all in a rush to insist they have no inner life. No introspection, soul, interiority, light. They need you to know they are nothing but hungry ghosts, forever consuming, shaping the world to death to rule over a graveyard. They want you just as cynical.

Thiel has to position the antichrist as anything other than a person because otherwise people would look around and say, "Well if this is the end times, the person most likely to be responsible for the rise of the antichrist is clearly Peter Thiel."

St. Patrick's Day in the US is just Spring SantaCon. Petition to rename it LepreCon.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

There’s just nothing to say, to people who clearly think shit like this is progress
