far too many media orgs have been slow to learn that in the age of social media the headline IS the story
"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism.
Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.

The AI bubble may be about to bust.
Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.
We all need to say this very clearly:
NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!
Expropriate their asses instead.
They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.
They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

På låven fant jeg et par reale lærstøvler yngstemann hadde vokst fra, men passet meg. De var tunge og ikke pene, men istand. Kaste? Men så kom jeg på en artikkel på NRK om mor og datter som gikk gatelangs og slepte på bildekk. Nå kan jeg stoppe på 8k skritt *og* sparke til traktoren.

Climate breakdown is driven by a storm of lies. This lying is systemic, funded and coordinated, and operates across almost all media, old and new.

Let's stop pretending that the billionaire media, endlessly attacking the BBC, has the slightest interest in balance, impartiality and accuracy. They won't be happy until the BBC is more rightwing than Vlad the Impaler. And then it still won't be enough.

I never liked clowns.
I'm annoyed by their refusal to tell car companies how they manage to fit 45 fully grown adults into a tiny clown car.
Think of how amazing it would be to have (say) a compact 2-seater car with the capacity of a coach. But despite the environmental benefits they won't tell.
