Even after Trump is gone, the world will remember that he threatened to forcibly seize the territory of a peaceful democratic ally, and our institutions failed to immediately remove him. That makes US dangerously unreliable, not just one senile gangster.
His not being impeached by the end of the business day as a result of this threat is as much a problem as the threat itself. It’s not just Trump that the world has to worry about, it’s a GOP that supports him and Democrats who suck their thumbs and refuse to even discuss pushing to remove him

I think the appearance of free software really broke the oligarch's brains. People are just giving away stuff that should be Shareholder Value? And we *can't* buy it off them and own it? People are just running a compiler whenever they like to make whatever they want without paying anyone?

Academic paywalls are really getting me down. I'm a working anthropologist, but my employers (college and tribe) are not universities, and so the research I'm able to do is severely limited. #academicchatter

Maybe in 2026 we can start to agree that "a complex algorithm selects content" is an editorial stance and platforms should be responsible to a certain degree.

More right wing achievements: in a country that used to be known for providing for every child, poor families are now asking diapers as Christmas presents for their children.
Meanwhile, the pro racism party in the government managed to anger about 4.8 billion people with their racist bullshit.

Lapsiperheköyhyyttä ei ratkaista hyväntekeväisyydellä.
Sosiaali- ja terveysministeriön arvion mukaan nykyisen hallituksen tekemät sosiaaliturvan leikkaukset vievät yli 30 000 lasta köyhyysrajan alapuolelle. www.hs.fi/helsinki/art...

Apua tarvitsevia perheitä on ollut tänä vuonna niin paljon, että hyväntekeväisyysjärjestö Hope on joutunut sulkemaan hetkittäin hakemuslomakkeensa.
