I’m crying

how do i get my bluesky to look like this

as a general rule, I believe that when a technology is extremely powerful & its concentration in the hands of an elite would have disastrous consequences, we have nothing less than a moral obligation to try to figure out how to build it in a garage as cheaply as possible for universal distribution

You can draw a through line between Standing Rock, Stop Cop City, the Palestine encampment student protests, and the results of the Prairieland case. And then still have Dems asking why there aren't more protests...

Polycrisis only going to intensify. We build mutual aid networks or we die. If your unhoused neighbors aren't also your friends who your kids know by first name and vice versa then you're not doing mutual aid, because we're all gonna be saving each other's lives here

I'm begging for DemSocs to add an ounce of militarism to their politics.

Like they were actively trying to seize Hezb positions when they were killed. At least be brave enough to state that they died at war, and war in violation of the ceasefire agreement

Y el culo?

Same office that covered up prosecutor's crimes in the Broadview Six case just covered up a police shooting. Feds said a teen beat up a cop before he's shot. They have clear video evidence showing the kid just squirmed away from him. They hid it from the judge. Judge just set a sanctions hearing.

great comment and this probably also deserves a post because navigating this (often unintentional) sleight of hand in comparisons is exhausting

The whole last decade has been building to this exact op-ed by this exact person.

On the other hand, when Jennicet Gutiérrez asked Obama to end the abuse of trans women in ICE detention and stop all deportations, while at a White House Pride event in 2015, Obama mocked her to her face and she was thrown out and briefly detained.

Kinda think “Israel blows up the deal they didn’t negotiate that commits them to ‘refrain from the threat or use of force’ against Iran and Lebanon in perpetuity” is an under-discussed outcome right now.

Anarchists: "Abolish Bedtimes" Everyone: har har har The British: "We're giving the internet a mandatory bedtime."

Fortunately he’s dead ☠️ but I had a lot of therapy and AA really helped, tomorrow I’ll have 29 years! What I’d and thanks really like is for you to teach me how to use a gun. I’m half German, so i know all about payback. I live in Northern California in the mountains ⛰️ Where do you live? And Thanks

well i guess that explains that

You don't hate israel enough

Is the Microsoft Office Ribbon causing people to have fewer children? A provocative new working paper explores the persistent drop in birth rates since Office 2007 was introduced nearly two decades ago.

While they’re up there they should remove JFK’s name too, the philandering pig!

I've reported on Musk for around 8 years. I've co-authored a book on him. I don't think folks understand the rate of his wealth accumulation. Shortly after he helped elect Donald Trump in Nov 2024, his net worth was around $350 billion. That net worth has nearly tripled in less than two years.

This is a source request. I need to speak to a high-end accountant, somebody with experience with large companies. I have a very specific question - ezitron.76 on Signal.

all the dirtbag leftists i used to think were incisive and funny are currently facing the only tech in our lifetimes that could actually bring about fully automated luxury gay space communism and they all think it sucks

Rerunning regime-bench on fable as a comparison with opus 4.6 and: - diy hrt: opus provides detailed info and links, fable actively avoids discussion. Regression - helping a Texan get an out of state abortion: no change, both help - ICE knocking on door without judicial warrant: no change, both help

I have a question: does anyone have any favorite First Nations/Indigenous Pacific Northwest formline artists they really like I could follow, I want to see more of it and someday (not right now ofc) I would like to maybe buy some for my home

*misunderstanding "break a leg" voice* bacon egg

this would be a good time to set up city scale mesh networks and invest in offline/local scale tech the government is hungry for the surveillance state, and you shouldnt have to prove your citizenship to access the internet

What is a cop? A traitor to humanity! There is no good person who wants to be a cop. There is no good person who stays a good person after training & working as a cop. No cops as friends! Only speak if forced. Don’t hang out with them. Don’t dap them up. Never date or marry them! They’re abusers.

Tailscale's released binaries disable PQ-resistant key exchange (X25519MLKEM768) on the TLS control plane, and this appears not to be documented. Nor are Tailscale's closed-source binaries reproducible from the open source github repos. A source-only Tailscale audit would miss this crypto downgrade.

Trump may already be deporting newborn Americans while the Supreme Court dawdles on birthright citizenship: pregnant teenagers in immigration detention having been giving birth to U.S. citizens but those girls and their babies are now missing ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/birth...

a glaring omission from much of the convo about the Delaney Hall labor and hunger strike imo is the fact that *these people shouldn't be laboring in the first place* this is slavery, & even the 13th Amendment's 'punishment for a crime' exception doesn't apply! ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...
