Your regular reminder that the ghosts of Christmas visited upon Scrooge not some sort of transcendent universal enlightening ethic; they're hauntological corrective policing agents that epouse a long dead morality from previous eras onto the present to eviscerate radical futures.

My cables: managed My motion smoothing: off

This. The LA River is only ever temporarily empty

in some sense tera ignota is about how a group chat of very powerful people sent the world into an era of unprecedented conflict

I'm unpacking my books and I keep involuntarily saying "Yes, Yes!! (sickos)" under my breath everytime I open a box.

Man, I know there's better stuff to worry about, but if my first experience with your product involves messing around with sticker residue, I'm going to curse your descendants for seven generations

Carmina Burana is a Christmas album

Been waiting for this 🫡

happy day of the long darkness, to those who celebrate

the hap- happiest season of all!

Area Man Who Hates Matter Battles Decides To Spend The Weekend Assembling Ikea Furniture

Oh man they’ve really got him now

I still believe in Brutalism but with Plants

“Here, take this” *foist*

I have to go to Target, IKEA, and the Apple Store on the weekend before xmas

I have no idea where this is originally from or if my friend made it but they sent it to me once; and I love it

The closest thing the left had to an answer to the question of what the future should look like (including aesthetically though with mixed results) was the green new deal. the petering out of that movement’s popular momentum in the Biden years has left a void that has yet to be filled

Breaking camp.

And it’s very very good

Baltimore Mid Atlantic Office Hours, Saturday, 12/13, 2pm, at Blue Pit. We’ll be upstairs.

one of the greatest books I’ve ever read, absolutely mind bogglingly unique and fascinating and absolutely fucking unhinged

All of these are emojis now

My toddler must’ve turned on speech to text, but honestly a lot of posters do need to hear this.

Most of these people are never gonna beat the “rabid and uncritical” allegations

I can see that this is going to be very useful bsky.app/profile/seve...

this is still true.

Hey Baltimoreans, I would LOVE to get more folks on this Wednesday evening's @fullstorybaltimore.tours ~Frederick Douglass' Fell's Point~ tour! If you know anyone who'd be interested, can you please let them know? &/or share this Facebook post link, if you're on FB? www.facebook.com/share/p/17cX...

It’s the season where we switch to heavier blankets on the couch

My childhood spy fantasy just came to life. My computer sent me a secret code from a remote server that I entered on my watch to gain special access. I just didn’t think it would be to get into Microsoft Teams.

There is huge danger this time of year inherent in checking out early and I seem to fall for it every time.

Attention is All You Need

the phrase “attention economy” already sucks but it’s hinting at something important: what matters now is your ability to get anyone’s attention. to say “hey!! i’m human! pay attention to me in the sea of slop”. to wave your hands frantically and have 1000 people see it. to say “i’m here, i matter”

in case of december: break glass in case of december: burn the rich neighbor's house in case of december: buy persimmons and hold your ex's hand in case of december: apologize for the air in case of december: wake up early, stay up late in case of december: wrap me up in blankets under the tree

I don't think a taxonomy is entirely useful except maybe to illustrate trends, but I've always felt @sevensixfive.bsky.social captured this pretty well already back in 2022.

I know we all know this but moving house is crazy. I can't believe I used to do this like every two years.

Socializing the means of production has even better odds of succeeding with AI. It's much easier to copy and share a language model than a cotton mill.

The EU proposed regulations that would require space actors to complete environmental footprint analyses from cradle to gave, starting in 2030. Elon’s response? Burn it all down!!

one thing they don't tell you about the labubu tarpits is that they're alive in there.

Autocorrect just changed “NRx” to “Marx”

Yessir, couldnt agree more.

Glushkov Red Plenty. Sovietcore Tekhnika Molodezhi.

We urgently need a promethean left.

municipal level geoengineering goes hard as a concept, but i am not sure how you manage externalities on that. i think an advantage the contemporary right has is, simply, denigration of consent of the governed as a concept, so they can always just let some other sucker pay externalities
