Vibes tonight. “We won't take any shit and we're not about to leave, just cause you don't like who we are and what we want to be! Who are you to say what’s wrong and what’s right? If it’s what it takes, we’re ready to fight!” youtu.be/7cVwoEFDUI0?...

Flooding the zone with slop: TikTok is full of clips like this. Why? Why oh why oh why? Why is it always like this!? www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMcb6jJh/

There are already enough drunk uncles that we don’t need more www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMcqet2M/

I know this recent Epstein drop is very confusing. The emails circulating were put out by the government, but are what the Epstein Estate was holding. These are not Gov inquiry or investigation outcomes. It is only part of what is requested. oversight.house.gov/release/over...

For folks (and journalists) who want to search the Oversight Committee email texts, I made a database for searching the 20k text files: splendorous-chaja-f79791.netlify.app

Technology is society made durable… he said. Where are the missing masses? He asked. We need a theory of power that goes far beyond money and politics. We now must also equate power with the desire and ability to use violence to coerce compliance with the new techno-authoritarianism.

Disinformation is a form of media manipulation that uses lies and deceit to influence political outcomes. Here Fox News used recycled clips from past uprisings to convince it's audience, including Trump, that Portland was in major danger.

When you subscribe to a news source, you are not “supporting” it. You’re paying your fair share for labor from which you’re benefiting.

Amelia Acker is at the top of her game here!

Me and my students are studying this and it is sick.

Nice piece, and consistent with our findings that misinformation exploits outrage to spread online www.science.org/doi/full/10....

Oh wow. They hired her and she doesn’t know how standards relate to trust and consumer confidence. From CBS to See BS everywhere.

I want this posted in every hallway of every university and then ask your students, why have a library when we can have slop?

Stupidity kills

It is very weird seeing my friends and family slowly start to realize we're not overreacting.

I’ve been a T-Mobile customer for years. But the T stands for Trump now. They carry Trump Mobile, killed DEI to please Trump’s FCC, union-bust, backed policies that strip healthcare, and are funneling millions to Musk. I’m canceling my plan on Nov 15. Join me youtube.com/shorts/q3nFt...

Read this and recommit yourself to doing something, anything, to stand up to this regime and end these atrocities

They’re not even trying

Word of the Day is ‘catchfart’ (17th century): an obsequious individual who sucks up to the boss and always follows the political wind.

Suicide by AI and still no one in the US gov is alarmed enough to regulate. Sick world.

I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

Student surveillance companies cash in on the ai grift by promising schools and parents their tech will keep students safe from the harms of ai.

Zorhan is the antidote to Stephen Miller. Now, the factionalization of dems becomes much more of a hurdle. If the party can’t create momentum through solidarity with working families, than competing factions and in-fighting will freeze recruitment and increase splintering.

It’s a sad state of affairs when bomb threats are called into voting locations to stop the democratic process. Only one party benefits from less voter turn out. We need to run elections without fear or favor.

#WeeknightWriters #FirstDraftFall Happy November, everyone! Will you be starting your new draft today? Have you already started? Do you need a couple more days to finish planning?

Lmao I didn’t know about this, it’s arguably the oldest Rogan has ever sounded; he’s enthralled by digital parlor tricks. I guess this answers the question “who is this for?”

this is like, a constant refrain in my head and it is very slow and sad

Setti recruited me to HKS and I loved working with him. I’ll never forget the conversations we had when everyone had left the office. He was a natural leader and a generous man. My thoughts are with his family.

lol what rules Fil!?!?? We are already in the metaverse, where the real and simulated are the same.

It’s 2017 all over again.

I don’t know how they keep getting away with this embarrassing show of idiotic white supremacy.
