But I think really got me off X was the algorithmic promotion of Bad actors. I'll be honest at this point if I have to leave Blue Sky I might just leave social media all together

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

New: Apple banned an app that simply archived videos of ICE abuses. Rather than other apps that record ICE official's real-time location, Eyes Up is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." Videos from TikTok etc. Every submission manually reviewed

Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses

Once in a while terrible ideas that become real, become unreal, because your community thoroughly defeated the controls, the messaging was toxic to the brand, and people started switching platforms.

Whooops!

This was my favourite book I read this year, a true story full of vivid, weird characters and outrageous situations. Tense, scary, and surprisingly funny.

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

NEW: Germany opposes mass scanning of private messages.

"must be taboo in a constitutional state"

"even the worst crimes don't justify giving up basic civil rights"

Well said Minister Stefanie Hubig!

Leadership we need from Europe's democracies.

Dr. Stefanie Hubig, Federal Minister of Justice and Consumer Protection, on the occasion of political discussions about privacy in the digital space and about a proposal for an EU regulation to prevent and combat sexual abuse

„Unreasonable chat control must be taboo in a constitutional state. Private communication must never be under general suspicion.“

08. October 2025

„Unreasonable chat control must be taboo in a constitutional state. Private communication must never be under general suspicion. The state must also not force messengers to scan messages en masse for suspicious content before sending them. Germany will not agree to such proposals at EU level. We must also make progress in the fight against child pornography at EU level. That's what I'm committed to. But even the worst crimes do not justify giving up basic civil rights. The federal government's votes have insisted on this for months. And it will stay that way.“

Every breakdown of social order comes from an over-reliance on rules-based orders on maintaining the standards of civilization, whether it is a social media community or a descent into fascism. You have to just sometimes use judgment to remove a shithead because they are a shithead.

Humanity has tried for 1000s of years to find the perfect set of written rules that make civilization and we have never succeeded. Civilization only works because people are generally decent and intolerable of jerks. Rules come later as a way to generate gradients of power and accountability.

On June 20, 2025 an EF-5 tornado, with over 210mph winds and mile wide, hit Enderlin, ND, killing two people and doing this to a loaded freight train.

Originally estimated at EF-3, recent damage assessments revised the wind speeds considerably.
Empty fields withe a railway. A fright train composed of overturned tankers and loaded grain cars. Some of the tanker cars are hundreds of feet away from the tracks.
