Fucking incredible dystopian shit, comparing super rich people risking millions if not billions of lives just to make more money to people that risked their life actually building incredible things that would then make millions of dollars for super rich people.

Was great to talk to @parismarx.com about Europe's subservience to the US tech-industrial complex. We have a wide ranging discussion on: - Nexperia and the chip war - the EU's deregulation agenda - Risks of Uberisation - The Platform Work Directive. Have a listen ⬇️ bsky.app/profile/tech...

So proud of my friend @caraellison.bsky.social 💫💫💫💫

okay but like. This is a vital part of the human learning process. Like learning to say the words correctly so that you can be understood, and being rewarded for making that effort, is an *extremely important part* of language acquisition.

Snitches are how 99% of FBI cases work, or someone talking when they shouldn't. It's almost never breaking encryption. So, keep using signal because its the best option we have. Do not switch to telegram which is DEMONSTRABLY less secure.

This story doesn’t in any way indicate that Signal is broken. This was a big signal group with open membership. Reading between the lines of the story this was 99% chance a snitch or undercover agent or cellebrite (1% chance someone’s phone got compromised) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Wow.

ICE has been raiding my neighborhood and surrounding ones for the last couple of weeks now. They commandeered my local church (against the pastor's will) for a staging site and raided supermarkets, parks, Goodwills, bus stops, you name it. The national media's been silent. So has @mayor.lacity.gov.

I do this ish for a living, I am an AI developer and researcher, and *I* don’t fully understand the security implications. What hope do regular users have? www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/wi...

NEW: The US has deported a longtime Oregon firefighter who was arrested by Border Patrol while deployed at a major wildfire in Washington state. José Bertin Cruz-Estrada, separated from his family, is speaking out from Mexico for the first time: “I feel betrayed ... What am I going to do now?"

PSA: tips to protect yourself from scams on Signal. Every major comms platform has to contend w phishing, impersonation, & scams. Sadly. Signal is major, and as we've grown we've heard about more of these attacks--scammy people pretending to be something or someone to trick and abuse others. 1/

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

The only thing I care about in a president for 2028 is holding every one of these people accountable under the law in the harshest manner possible. Anything short of that is a waste of time.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Being pro-trans and pro-immigrant is a winning strategy, like we've been saying all year These overpaid, Centrist pundits and consultants need to be ignored

NYC mayor, NJ governor and VA governor, all democrats or leftists. I know how scary and authoritarian the world has become, esp the US. But let’s celebrate these wins tonight yall and let’s keep fighting and fighting.

first and foremost, i want to thank our final republican governor chris christie for laying the groundwork for this through his shitty job as governor and being trump’s cuck

Savor this moment, friends. They couldn’t buy their way to a win. They couldn’t racist their way to a win. There are more of us than them, and we fucking beat them. And we can keep beating them.

I’m crying and I don’t even live there anymore, yall

Omgomgomgomgomg omggggg!!!

Sadly there was no way to predict this.

I don’t even live in NYC anymore and yet…

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

We have progressed from data collection to data analysis.

Hi! My friend Natalie is having a really hard time supporting her kids right now. It would make me so happy if you could donate to help her keep going: gofund.me/17705d028

this brings me so much joy 👻 ❤️👻 ❤️👻 ❤️👻 ❤️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8eF...

Having the ICIRR hotline already in your phone is also a must. If you're in Illinois and see ICE, call (855) 435-7693. And join the ICIRR Eyes on ICE text network, which sends out alerts on verified reports of sightings: icirr.quorum.us/campaign/ile...

It's also hard to convey just how much ICE is *everywhere*. The city, the suburbs, in and out in the blink of an eye. A crew doing smash and grab jobs across a massive expanse of distance. Part of the reason whistle distro is so important is because you will never know where/when you will need it.

In less than 2 months of its existence, the National Design Studio has been cranking! There is now their site ndstudio.gov (1 page), americabydesign.gov (1 page), trumpcard.gov (1 page) and now trumprx.gov (1 page). That’s right, they’ve added four (4) whole pages of content! Take that, haters!

listen. when dolly parton’s sister says it’s time for us all to be prayer warriors for dolly. you fucking pray for dolly

What's it like living in Chicago today? This image gives us a strong sense of the fear that Chicagoans fear from Trump's secret police.

i did eat popcorn while watching this panel 🤣 www.youtube.com/live/xXI-ELO...

How can fairer working conditions for data workers be created? A new Discussion Paper outlines guidelines for the use of data work in academic research: www.weizenbaum-institut.de/en/news/deta...

The cuts are bad but NOAA accurately forecasted this.

Nothing like meming a narrative into being that these cuts are the reason the flooding deaths happened and not the failure of local officials who failed to act.
