1) good, they should be prosecuted, they are responsible for countless deaths 2) always very funny when these people realize the extent to which their billionaire patrons could not possibly give less of a shit about them

I just want to note that if you're removing the *CIA Mission Center* (presuming this is DIROPS/DO) lawyer because they won't sign off on your strike, you're almost certainly doing something seriously unlawful. Those folks excel at obscure legal justifications in the "lawful but awful" category.

It's Friday, and apparently bluesky is ready for this fun revelation: Dinosaurs lived on the other side the Galaxy.

stares african americanly, civil rights leaderly, and black pantherly

remember, we can celebrate the chaos and pain she is about to inflict on the other side without EVERY HANDING IT TO the Jewish Space Laser lady. bsky.app/profile/erin...

I'll just make this a bluesky thread instead of a blog post because the post will add some unneeded weight of delcaration, and this isn't needed. Delchi was a complicated guy, or actually a simple guy that made things complicated. He was really good at that. We worked on things together.

An important takeaway from feds infiltrating a signal chat is that they probably did it by getting a link posted publicly & then just lurking. For all the fear mongering about how "nothing on the Internet is safe," in reality signal & e2e apps are as safe as your security culture. Vet & hand invite!

Why yes, @microsoft.com, I will HAPPILY provide you feedback on how exactly I feel about Word right now.

Happy Holidays! ALL Haymarket Books are 40% off through January 2nd!

Man, the only time I link to YouTube (even tangentially through invidious bcs fuck google forever) is to post music videos. Every other time I'm searching I have to add -youtube to my search parameters, because I don't need to see a vid of someone reading tweets as "breaking news" for fuck's sake.

I love modern criminals, they’re always googling shit like “how to do crime”

The people who make Shein's clothes labor for ten to twelve hours per day (in violation of China's labor laws), some up to seven days a week, and earn as little as 15 to 30 cents per t-shirt.

Sales of AI-enabled teddy bear suspended after it gave advice on BDSM sex and where to find knives

Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

Lord help me if this bubble ends up killing Oracle it might have all been for something

Remember those innocent, halcyon days when we all assumed the kompromat was Russian sex workers peeing on him?

Unless I missed something while I was in this meeting, you're telling me the new york times has the ethical fortitude to cut this man off but he is still allowed to co-teach his classes?

Translation: they’ve finished scrubbing and re-manufacturing whatever is there.

He's directing the murder and abduction of people, and looting the US Treasury to enrich himself and his pedophile friends. Frankly, I don't give a shit whether he had a dick in his mouth.

Can't believe Spike has been gone 7 years 😔

Folks, it can make a difference

For #FossilFriday & in honor of @alinemghilardi.bsky.social & colleagues' fantastic discovery of a new Cretaceous pterosaur in Brazil in a dinosaur regurgitalite ("fossil vomit"), here's a diagram I made for my book 'Dinosaurs Without Bones' (2014) showing the physics of a puking brachiosaur. 🧪🦕🤮🪨

Meanwhile, MAGA is still pretending that trans women are the real bathroom threat.

I love how capitalism is so deranged that we measure the affordability of a thing by how many coffees you have to sacrifice to afford it. Like the drug we drink to be able to survive our lives of labor is the only way we can understand actual value because money is ephemeral.

nope. anthropic made a dataset including fake emails implying a nonexistent engineer was having an affair and the chatbot emitted words related to words from those fake emails implying a fictitious affair. then a bunch of dipshit frauds at anthropic made the home alone face and ran around the house.

I guess I understand why the press isn’t mentioning it but, it sure looks like either Trump ordered the killing of Epstein or someone in the prison just volunteered to kill Epstein to protect Trump.

Fun fact: "barely legal" is in fact legal. What Megyn Kelly claims is "barely legal" is actually illegal. Words, meanings, etc.

Best of luck in your future endeavors. Let us know where all the black women you let go end up so we can follow them there.

Get ready for Trump to tell SCOTUS that murdering Epstein was part of his official duties as president, and them saying "sounds good"

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills: the emails from Landon Thomas has his New York Times signature block...he was employed by NY Times at the time. He was communicating directly with Epstein about Trump, and was given incriminating information about Trump. It's been in NYT's possession since 2015

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

one to be aware of, browsers allow any website to go full screen, so now ClickFix are faking Windows update reboot prompts to get remote access for ransomware groups. cyberplace.social/@GossiTheDog...

🏳️‍⚧️ It's Trans Awareness Week (Nov 13 to 19)! 🏳️‍⚧️ If you're a cis person who has the financial ability and/or in position of power, I recommend you to exercise your privileges and give direct support to trans people and/or hire trans people because awareness isn't enough. Thanks! 😊✨

Workers with @kickstarterunited.org end their six-week strike victorious, enshrining 4-day work weeks and salary floors while also adding protections against gen AI replacing human labor.

Personally I don't think it's OK to say "I'm not interested in politics, I just want to live my life", because it means you're asking others to hold the line against people who would destroy you.

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck? It's the Pope in 1982.

Happy birthday to Kathleen Hanna, American singer, pioneer of the feminist punk riot grrrl movement, lead singer of the feminist punk band Bikini Kill, frontwoman of Le Tigre in the late 1990s, born this day 1968 in Portland 📸 Allison Michael Orenstein #womenofpunk #kathleenhanna #riotgrrrl #otd

Really nice investigative work from Monacelli of the Texas Observer. Note "courtroom observation": the reporter sat in on his trials, noted the times he appeared to be typing on his phone, and watched his tweets appear in real time.

Jeff Pearlman found Brenda and the baby from Tupac's "Brenda's Got A Baby."

Just as I predicted. We just had our first snow. Soon there won’t be any lawn work, so there won’t be Latino men doing low-wage work standing outside that they can find by chopper & drone & direct Border Patrol from the air to the right house to kidnap men for gardening while brown.

We’re all trying to figure out who controls the democratic Senate caucus, because that person should resign.

I like this framing of Schumer being "no longer" effective as if the motherfucker ever was.

no quote about the US political system has ever gone harder than this one

Whomst could have predicted that gutting CISA would be a bad idea

Neat! 📷

every single week they're throwing this guy a special oval office love-in that appears to be the presidential equivalent of letting your dog scarf an entire big mac and fries before that last trip to the vet

Whenever some sanctimonious Dem announces that America needs a functioning Republican Party, I always think “I’d settle for a functioning Democratic Party.”
