I finished Crime Scene Cleaner and Lifeless Planet today. I enjoyed them both for different reasons for sure. Make sure to pet Dexter. Next will be finishing Star Trek: Resurgence. Surprisingly longer than I expected.

Something about his face I just don’t trust.

Thanks Silicon Valley bros!

I really broke my algo in the past month when I was writing about AI in law enforcement, but now I can bring you daily dystopia. Axon is doing things with AI that anyone who cares about privacy would recoil from. Today, they are marketing a panopticon that must include AI monitoring tools.

For the second time this spring, the FDA has redacted key details in its published investigation of bacterial food contamination. This one involves salmonella in mangoes and the agency carefully blanked out the name of the importer and distributors. The earlier report (1/3)

I have Risen. To turn of my alarm clock.

Pope Leo.

Qdoba is better than Chipotle.

Whoopsie whoopsie.

Thought it was a snake behind the possum and was yelling “let it in!”. I see now that it’s a leash.

If you want to lose track of time (laudatory), pick it up.

Brain has been deep fried.

“The Klan monument is run by slave labor” is a little too on the fucking nose

I like Transylvania 6-5000. I watched this movie so much as a child we wore out the VHS it was taped from HBO on.

racist bullshit regime pushes more racist bullshit

At a PMI Symposium. Help.

New: I wrote about how the SPLC let union breaking and fear of MAGA drive it away from its own civil rights principles. After I spoke up about Gaza, the SPLC disciplined me and terminated my employment—leading to a discrimination settlement: substack.com/home/post/p-...

Unsurprising. Something to consider when choosing distros.

I’ll have more to say about this next year but if you want to drive yourself insane, win a FOIA lawsuit vs the FBI & acquire 100s of pages of surveillance logs. Then read the agents record the license plate #s of people they KNOW aren’t connected to the surveillance target: solicitors, customers etc

At a PMI Symposium. Help.

This might seem kinda petty in the grand scheme of things but this is the White House using high gas prices as an excuse for MORE giveaways to oil & gas co's. Pls leave a quick comment- it can just be "I don't think this place should be drilled."

NEW: TeleGuard has been downloaded more than a million times and markets itself as a secure way to chat. But the app, which has been repeatedly been linked to child abusers, has such bad encryption, experts say its claims are "meaningless."

Gov. Polis & state officials are weighing whether to comply with a new ICE subpoena as he also tries to end a lawsuit that stopped him from complying with a similar request + as he implements a policy blocking subpoena discussions from ever being released: www.denverpost.com/2026/04/02/j...

I want folks to understand that Trump's argument in the birthright citizenship case is that he has the power to reimpose a pre-Civil War legal order, recreating an inheritable racialized underclass and denying citizenship to newborns with disfavored ancestry ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/birth...

No, fuck you. You don’t get to suddenly decide that copyright matters when folks suddenly have access to the source code of your spicy autocomplete due to your own incompetence.

Someone - “Hey what are you listening to?” Me - “Townes Van Zant” Someone - “Oh? You look like you like it. What song?” Me - “Waiting Around to Die” Someone - “… uh that sound great. Nice catching up.”

I agree with Mr. Show with David and/or Bob. The moon has been hoarding its cheese for too long.

📣Calling all journalists who think what's happening with the @archive.org getting blocked is garbage, or for those who just love the Internet Archive, DM us because we're doing a thing!

Love this from eigenmagic.net/@daedalus on Mastodon.

These absolute fools and crooks. Replacing Flock with Axion doesn’t solve anything. They can’t say no to surveillance. Shame on them using the guise of “public safety”.

NEW: Conservative groups have begun using Gemini, ChatGPT, xAI, and other tools to try to get books banned. “When [censors] start using these tools to take the shortcut to get books off shelves, you’re going to end up pulling so many books that tend to be the most targeted anyway."

Democrats could insist on substantial change but instead they seem like they will passively allow anti-immigrant groups to control what happens.

Triple H calling the White House to run against Dynamite.

LOL. LMAO.

“The conference, tentatively planned for June or July, will convene officials from various nations to discuss strategies for battling antifa…” The more effort this administration puts into countering anti fascism, the more imperative it is for everyone to be actively anti fascist.

Here's my Platner timeline, stretching from 2007 to 2026, which is why I do not trust what comes out of his mouth right now. I'm shocked that so many people and orgs I ordinarily respect are so desperate to ignore this history. bsky.app/profile/greg...

For anyone interested, May Day Strong (which includes union affiliates) has been mobilizing and organizing since last year. maydaystrong.org They are inviting folks to join together for a day of economic disruption on May 1 (a week day - this seems to matter greatly to some).

I know this is a joke (I believe) but I hate it @queerarmorer.bsky.social They said an AR57 Space Gat was a bad idea... reddit.com/r/liberalgun...

Well thank fucking god.

Please note I am currently having a tuna sandwich for lunch with dill relish, dill pickle slices and also with dill pickle Lays.
