Jeg har lyst til å hyre inn noen til å holde et foredrag om hvordan vi bør desentralisere og begrense personlige data, fordi fascisme er så mye lettere hvis man får starte med gode databaser man kan bruke som våpen. Gjerne med fokus på hva privatpersoner kan gjøre, men systemnivå er også […]

Big Beautiful Bill

When the Times of London reported that former New York City mayor Bill de Blasio had misgivings about frontrunner Zohran Mamdani's policies, it seemed unlikely, since de Blasio had previously endorsed the Democratic candidate. It was unlikely — in fact, it wasn't true. In a remarkable snafu by […]

One of the Boys by Victoria Zeller I came across this book by way of an It Could Happen Here interview: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-it-could-happen-here-30717896/episode/trans-fiction-trans-sports-275232665/ Properly a tale of a trans teen girl trying […] [Original post on mstdn.social]

I'm boosting a deal of queer and trans supportive stuff, and I've decided to kick it up a notch. Write more myself. They have the misfortune of being the front line of fascism, so besides deserving protection for themselves, we either defend them now or have new minorities to defend next month […]

Give me a break.

Hotel rooms come with soap and shampoo, I'm assuming, so that airplane travellers can travel with hand luggage and don't need to deal with liquids through security gates. The more expensive the room, the more sure I can be that liquids are included. But never toothpaste. Do these people never […]

In solidarity with the Global Sumud Flotilla.

This is amazing.

The Death of Democracy

Kjenner jeg er litt redd for valget 2029 allerede. Si at alle disse KrF-, Høyre- og Venstre-velgerne stemmer AP for å unngå Listhaug som statsminister. Frp blir det desidert største høyrepartiet, og det eneste som ikke skuffet i forhold til meningsmålingene. AP får fire nye år. Hvordan vil […]

The only thing ChatGPT ever does.

Ser på opptak fra Arendalsuka, debatt om God er på vei tilbake i politikken. Fy så mange direkte faktafeil. Rabiat redaktør mener Lia Thomas knuste rekord på rekord på rekord i kvinnesvømming. Hun har én rekord i kvinnesvømming, og jeg vedder på at redaktøren ikke kan si hvilken uten å sjekke […]

Jeg har vært lokalpolitiker i to år nå, og for første gang hadde jeg i går en følelse av at det er godt at det er nettopp meg som sitter i kommunestyret. Jeg fikk snudd en "det er kjipt men nødvendig"-stemning til et enstemmig vedtak om å bevare søskenmoderasjon i SFO. Jeg kunne vise til direkte […]

Ser på #nrkdebatten og Guri Melby sier pengene SV vil bruke på gratis barnehage kunne brukes på de som trenger det mest. Det er 3 grunner til universale ordninger: 1. De med færrest ressurser har vanskeligst for å søke støtte, med universal løsning får også de hjelp. 2 […]

How fucking long will you keep trying trickle-down economics before you admit it never fucking trickles down? It's time for plan B, piñata economics. That's where we string the greedy bastards up and beat them with a stick until our money falls out!

Miracle of Sound is in Stockholm, so so am I! Can't wait for this to start.

Hører på podcasten Noen Har Snakket Sammen, de snakker med Tonje Brenna. Hun prater om å beholde uføretrygda mens man prøver seg i arbeidslivet, at man ikke må risikere å miste all inntekt for å få testet restarbeidsevne. Hun er 90% gjennom å argumentere for borgerlønn, hun må bare fjerne […]

I've got a quick favour to ask. If you're reading this post on Mastodon (or the Fediverse), please click share. How come? I recently moved across to my own self-hosted single-user server (using GoToSocial.org). For a bunch of reasons, including visibility across the Fedi, it would really help out.

Seems Trump's two lessons from his first term were that the boss can be a dumbass, the people around him will get the job done, and that the people around him weren't loyal enough to him personally. This time he hired bootlickers first, regardless of competence. And it seems those people do the […]

Bluesky didn't reach a federated stage where you could choose a service provider in a free country before they started to censor people based on authoritarian demands.

Stop calling it fucking deportation. People are being kidnapped off the street, and shipped to death camps where nobody leaves alive. The nazis didn't deport a lot of people to Poland. Death camps! There's a voice in the back of my head saying "If we use the big words willy-nilly we devalue […]

CECOT will go down in history alongside concentration camps and gulag. The name will be synonymous to torture death camp. If you have a platform and you aren't using it to fight now, you are irredeemable. This is already happening, it is pure evil, the only thing we can do is shorten evil's time.

About Sasha / Chair Tendre is a fantastic tv series that will broaden your understanding of the violence that is our gender norms. If you know a lot about gender struggles, you will enjoy this. If you know less, this will teach you. It's one of the best things I've seen lately. I found it on […]

I'm impressed with the US resistance, the protests, the coverage of disappeared people, the town halls, but... You do realize that this would all be easier if you all voted, right?

I'm way too familiar with Brandolini's Law 😩

I think the real letdown of AI is that it's marketed as AI. It's like the Hoverboard thing all over again. If it doesn't actually hover you should not get to use that name. And if it's just an advanced chatbot you should not get to claim it has intelligence.

Har noen penger jeg gir hver måned til veldedig formål. De jeg gir til sender meg medlemblad, AI-genererte "personlige" bursdagshilsner og julehilsner. Jeg føler for å finne noen som bruker pengene bedre. Tips til noen som bruker pengene på å gjøre verden bedre? #allheimen #Norsktut

Vis meg det mennesket som ville ha brukt mobil i bil da bota var 10200kr, men som nå vil la være fordi den har økt til 10450kr. #allheimen #Norsktut
