Seems like a relevant time to throw this out. The steps between letters are getting a bit larger and coming a bit more quickly.

"While Americans should welcome Trump’s rapidly increasing unpopularity and must do everything they can to constrain him, realism requires a recognition that he's all but certain to do everything possible to cling to power — even if he brings the country down with him." — @davidrlurie.com
We are all passengers in Trump’s death cab

Radium. Leaded gas. BPA. The list goes on, but the challenge with AI (and crypto and other technologies) is it’s harder to regulate the use of technologies that exist as ideas.
I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

People steeped in capitalist isolation finding the benefits of having a community around them…
Bro, people are going to build entire lives around the neighbors they’ve found in these anti-ICE signal chats. Marriages, lifelong friendships, weird hobbies. It is actually breaking my brain. I am almost crying in the club (chat).

“Lifeless… foam around his mouth. Nobody wants to see their kids like that.”

ICE attacked a family trying to LEAVE the besieged neighborhood and hospitalized a 6 month old baby that couldn’t breathe.

The story of US intervention is a story of suffering, misery and chaos. How many more catastrophic failures will it take before we learn the lesson?

My piece for @tribunemagazine.bsky.social on the illegal invasion of Venezuela.

Starmer’s Passivity on Venezuela is Cowardice
Keir Starmer’s evasiveness towards Donald Trump’s assault on Venezuela is a clarifying example of Britain’s ‘special relationship’ of unthinking submission to the White House’s interests.

Reminder than US getting itself into a bullshit war on thin pretext isn’t anything new and makes for good pretext to reread Get Your War on.

"But Maduro likely stole an election." Ok well Bush DEFINITELY stole an election. I don't see yall cheering for his extradition to a foreign court and the bombing of Fort Worth.

It's almost like yall are stupid fucking dipshits that will swallow any neoliberal propaganda that crawls by.

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.

This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.

It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.

Venezuela now, because he wants the oil.

He wants the oil under Greenland too. And under Canada. He's openly called for them to be part of the USA.

How long before he decides to bomb a couple of NATO members to get his own way?

The USA is a rogue nation.

A reminder that when Trump is making his Truth Social posts it truly is on one of the most pathetic websites ever. This is how one of his posts looks natively, sandwiched between two giant, irrelevant ads.

I feel like this absolutely needs to be documented to show just how deranged the conservatives are and how divorced they are from reality.

Why the hell were the former prisoners so mean to Nazis? They should have tolerated their differences in values and learned to all get along!

So I’ve been watching the New Life SMP by @smajor.bsky.social and friends and feel like they never let that one breathe. I know they had some server issues which led to it ending soon, but I feel like the Minecraft SMP space is really lacking for a Create mod SMP. @fwhip.bsky.social was killing it

This is all very simple. Let the world's two biggest babies fight and visibly construct and build a world without them. Anybody who tries to welcome Elon Musk, the world's most preeminent ratfucker, into their political party should be put in a dog crate until 2029.
