Claims of 40 dead after an Israeli airstrike on a elementary girl’s school in Iran www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblo...

We'll all have plenty to say today about Trump's unprovoked attack on #Iran. But let's remember the most important things: ♦️Many people will be killed. For nothing. ♦️That may include many US troops. For nothing. ♦️The regime may fall. Or not. And there's absolutely no plan for what comes next.

I would like to remind people that AI has already been used to kill people OpenAI and Microsoft supplied Israel with AI models to track and kill people in Gaza which led to increased civilian deaths apnews.com/article/isra...

BREAKING — 51 Iranian children are dead after a strike hits Minab girls elementary school in Iran.

At least we know in the hours before the attack Hegseth was laser focused on keeping Americans safe

Imagine a world where the terms of this agreement—between two of the world’s most powerful & dangerous organizations—were precisely specified & robustly debated through transparent, accessible, & accountable public processes. But no. We get swagger, threats, proprietary systems, & tweets.

My partner just asked why isn’t there capital punishment for being a billionaire. Once your net worth gets close to a billion, all new money should just get taken from you and it’s like yes babe, let’s fucking gooooooo.

Love it when our nation’s defense contractors all spend their Friday nights subtweeting each other about killing everyone in the world

"I hope you die" is weak. "I hope that obscure Japanese-only game you wanna play gets a fan translation done entirely by ChatGPT" is way more hurtful. It's real. It could happen to anyone.

I utilized all of the tactics these women list for YEARS to manage my adhd. it was so refreshing when i saw a psychiatrist who looked at my extensive calendar + workflows to stay on track and said 'you have ADHD." and then prescribed me medication, which helps SO MUCH www.thecut.com/article/surg...

huge thanks @gerwitz.com for tagging me & yes i totally agree re. more designers (and other non-code contributors) are needed in FOSS. I've been a core maintainer over at opensourcedesign.net/along with other lovely folks for 7+ years @jancborchardt.net @elio.bsky.social hachyderm.io/@simulo@hci....

github.com/iamkingsleey/ www.linkedin.com/in/victory-b... @carolinesinders.bsky.social and saptaks.website We do a lot of pretty 'invisible' work to advocate for design and designers in FOSS as well as many of us doing active paid and unpaid work as designers in FOSS.

Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved. DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

completely chuffed at seeing 'potato internet' , a project by myself, trammell hudson and motang yang mentioned in @aixdesign.bsky.social slow ai report! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ www.figma.com/proto/j9isk2...

@aendra.com loved your talk at protocols for publishers!

Open AI's Brockman & wife donated 25 million to Trump in September. Plus they gave 50 million to dark money super PAC with Andreessen H & Palantir's Lonsdale. These are not normal token sums compared to the other techies. They are some of the largest www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

At #fosdem? Come to the open source design dev room (I’m on the OSD steering committee and volunteering this year) AND come see a talk I’m giving this afternoon :) fosdem.org/2026/schedul...

Watching this Labour government try to kill UK universities is like watching an animal disembowel itself. You just sit there thinking ‘Why?? Why would you rip out something that has always kept you alive?’

This reads like a bland puff piece @restofworld.org, you should know better. It only takes a quick search to find a myriad of evidence about UpScrolled's content governance problems. restofworld.org/2026/upscrol...

Note to self: if a talk requires you to sign up with a university's special software, say no. Context: I have spent a full human hour wrangling w/ a very finicky system that is impossible to set up without having a national ID number in this university's country (I don't live in said country).

Hi there, if you're in law enforcement, a legal observer, a government worker, or a tech worker and you're in MN/or have any info about what's happening now with ICE and law enforcement operations, you can reach me at Vittoria89.82. We can speak anonymously.

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
