Dice Miner, 50% Off Today Only

Musk is such a fucking idiot he probably does not understand that Scotts-Irish (sic) is a category of Presbyterian Scottish planters sent to Ireland to exclude the traditional Irish.

1/3 What Musk is really referring to here is, of course “race” - that construct that served to define the hierarchies of wealth & power structured by modern colonialism. Like other far right racists though, he uses the word “culture” as a seemingly less pernicious synonym.

Southcom strikes which illegally kill people on boats in the Carribean that three months ago elicited shocked headlines in US news media are now being reported in low priority spaces buried deep in news outlet websites.

Normalisation of what are in effect US military death squads.

Another game I tested in development. This one has a pleasing physicality that goes with its game play. Plus money to help folks impacted by the occupation!

Frequently wrong about themselves Sure, there are complex psychological issues at play, but surely people can at least be trusted to tell you about themselves, right? Unfortunately not. A particular AAA developer I know of once sent surveys to 1000 players asking them which game they had played the most, then compared it with the data of what they had actually played. Not a single one answered correctly. Zero out of one thousand players could remember their own habits enough to tell which game they’d played the most. Player answers were so consistently wildly wrong that the team involved thought that their data must have been corrupted. Upon validating that it was in fact accurate, they went back to the players and told them what their actual most played games were, and every single one said something along the lines of “OH! Right. Well, that makes sense”. When people tell you things they’re really telling you the stories they tell themselves about themselves, and those stories may not have anything at all to do with reality.

Like you, I’ve been contributing to others’ efforts to fundraise for their neighbors’ survival.

Now I’m asking you to help my own neighbor.

She’s trying to fight removal proceedings and reopen her asylum case, and needs $ for legal costs—$3,035 of $8K raised so far.

We will never advance morally nor will Dems gain durable power electorally unless we actually MAKE THE ARGUMENT. And it's not hard: immigrants are great. Continuing to shit on or apologize for or insist only on mitigating evil against immigrants means we will never actually win.

If DHS remains unfunded until the next congress gets sworn in, that is OK by me

The sprawling agency saw its baseline funding expire after lawmakers left town for a week-long recess, but without a deal to rein in the conduct of federal immigration officers.

This is blackout poetry to me
I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018. How did I do it? Blacked out lines CEO (my dad) promoted me to SVP. There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.

This is so spot on
Ari Drennen @AriDrennen Follow The high trust neighborhoods that MAGA yearns for exist all over America, and they're all like D+40 nxthompson A @nxthompson •22h An extraordinary paragraph. buff.ly/uH5ykhX The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesivebecause of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

I’d like to point out the deep irony that the feds are constantly using possible “doxxing” as the justification they must be anonymous, plateless, and masked, when they are constantly doxxing us. Peak DARVO.

Glad this is getting covered, but also… Completely surreal to read the NYT report on this as recently disclosed info, and just an allegation. This happened to every observer I know! It happened to me twice! I have it on video both times! www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/u...

Yikes: guy who blogged about how an AI agent published a “hit piece” against him, says (human) reporters seem to have used an LLM to read (and misreport) his blog post

theshamblog.com/an-ai-agent-...
It's been an extremely weird past few days, and I have more thoughts on what happened. Let's start with the news coverage. I've talked to several reporters, and quite a few news outlets have covered the story. Ars Technica wasn't one of the ones that reached out to me, but I especially thought this piece from them was interesting (since taken down - here's the archive link). They had some nice quotes from my blog post explaining what was going on. The problem is that these quotes were not written by me, never existed, and appear to be Al hallucinations themselves.

When someone says their country executes pedophiles and you respond by claiming that they are calling for the execution of Donald Trump, you are revealing that you know Donald Trump is a pedophile.

Thank you for you attention to this matter.
