This is a nightmare. ICE snatches a 15-year-old, non-verbal kid with autism off the street. His mom files a missing person's report. It takes police six days to find him hidden in an ICE gulag. This is a parent's worst nightmare. https://youtu.be/DmU8bRXb3II?si=2uh_roXAHi_TNFkK #uspol #law […]

"Gen Z is more conservative because they've seen neo-liberalism fail for decades" No babe education has been gutted and dumb people are easier to manipulate and they don't know anything about history they failed it in highschool. #uspol #history #genz #usa #funding #education

Does anyone else just feel like news programs have just become state media? Even with NPR, everything they report is either information from the government that is easily verifiable to be false or heavily mischaracterized. with every story you have to decipher what is and isn't blatant […]

I appreciate you Barak

Every union that worked on the Jimmy Kimmel Show, and works with Disney, Sinclair Broadcasting, and Nextstar should strike. Just shut it all down. No one’s jobs are safe when corporations put appeasing fascists over workers and their constitutional rights.

MSNBC fired Matthew Dowd for saying that Charlie Kirk pushed hate. Meanwhile, over at FOX, Brian Kilmeade floats “involuntarily lethal injection” for the homeless. https://www.mediamatters.org/fox-friends/fox-news-host-mentally-ill-people-who-commit-crimes-just-kill-them

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man. Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent. We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate. My latest piece.

I don't care about Charlie Kirk's death. He said School shootings and gun deaths are worth it. That women should submit to their husbands. That black people shouldn't vote, and Gays shouldn't marry. He said mentally ill people and trans people should be institutionalized. I swear some of y'all […]

A new psychological study published in the Journal of Personality says that people who report favorable views of President Donald Trump tend to score higher than those with other views on measures of callousness, manipulation, and other malevolent traits, and lower on empathy and compassion. The […]

"sideloading" is a stupid made up term invented to delegitimize installing software. Heres a bunch of other things I'm doing while "sidestepping" some supposed central authority: - sideshopping (buying stuff from a store that isn't amazon) - sidedining (eating or making food that isn't from […]

There is no logic. No moral consistency. Only Zionism and white supremacy.

Dear Journalists: You keep reporting that Trump "lowered" the tariffs planned for Japan et al to 15 percent (from the announcements of much higher numbers). When you do, you play into his propagandists' hands. He RAISED tariffs from ~2% -- that is, more than 7 times the previous level.

So the USA right now is basically if Quan Millz wrote a dystopian novel, we can all agree on that right?

Last month, I spent about a week working on Plasma Bigscreen, hoping to get it back in Plasma releases again! Read about it on my blog: https://espi.dev/posts/2025/07/plasma-bigscreen/ #kde

So I guess Washington state has decided that missing person alerts should be blasted to every cellphone and that they should link to a broken Twitter profile in order to do so, super great, love this future

No, we don't. We need to talk about your trackers.

This is why people don't support big media. Greta Thunberg was kidnapped. Point blank. Was on international waters. Israel is not the world Police. They do not have jurisdiction in international waters. That is kidnapping. No denying it. And not a single […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

It's crazy how low #mastodon monthly active user base is. Make some posts. Keep mastodon alive

This was posted by Business Insider, a (supposedly) reputable news source, unironically. And if that doesn't say something about the state of the world right now I don't know what does. I'm sorry but seriously what the fuck is this? #news #currentevents #business

Uhh....anyone know what's up with #fedidb ? Like this is clearly incorrect data. There is a massive gap tanking the statistics. #mastodon #fediverse

The people throwing the Nazi salutes and the systemic targeting of vulnerable communities aren't what bother me the most. They're awful, don't get me wrong. But what truly bothers me is the people who downplay these things, who tell us it's not so bad, that see fear of all of this as unjustified.

Shouldn't even be a debate

You know why we Germans are so pedantic about data protection? Someone around 90 years ago went through all records available, selected people with certain criteria, with the help of IBM, and then killed them all. We don't want to be on any list. And now the US Gov and Musk is trying to get […]

Muskwatch.com analyzed URL traffic for an image sharing service run by Coristine (tesla dot sexy), and found between April 2021 and September 2021 that numerous noxious URLs redirected to Coristine’s site, including, “children-sex.party,” “child-porn.store,” “kkk-is-cool.club,” “nigga.rentals,” […]

Something truly insane to me is that Threads blatantly goes against all the principals of the Fediverse, and yet people still defend it. #tech #foss #fedi #lgbtqia #threads

I don't believe in mob rule or cancel culture. I do believe however in giving everyone the benefit of the doubt and I don't assume malicious intent from anyone unless their actions prove otherwise. This is why I never joined the #fedipact and I never will. Now, Meta has announced a new policy […]

While I love the recent Bluesky rally, I also want to remind everyone that Mastodon is the only properly decentralized, billionaire-proof and VC-free social media for now. I get that most people couldn't care less about protocols, but if you do, I recommend maintaining a presence there :)
