My personal life was looking to improve a lot at the start of the year but shit really hit the fan a couple days ago. Things will probably improve in the long run, but I could use some kind words!

I am not able to fall asleep tonight at all... Councilman Rosco Rodeoberger at 1:15 AM: Well why are you bothering us about it Not much use talking to your friends when theyre fast asleep huh PANEL 2 Razzlyn sits up and continues messaging Rosco. Razzlyn at 1:16 AM: You are very clearly not asleep, Rosco. Councilman Rosco Rodeoberger at 1:17 AM: Thats because I have a surprise for you Come down to your kitchen if you wanna see PANEL 3 Razzlyn walks downstairs, still tired. PANEL 4 Razzlyn turns on the light in her kitchen, revealing an envelope on her kitchen table with a Rosco-shaped wax seal. PANEL 5 Razzlyn reads the letter. Dear Razzlyn I am not in your house right now. - Rosco

The Internet Archive and Way Back Machine is a crucial part of the Internet we once knew. It's hard to overstate how important it is to ensure both stay around. Especially in this political climate.

Please take some time to pitch in and boost this petition. A little bit of action goes a long way.

And this is why you should fight this kidnapping tooth and nail regardless of whether you agree with Mahmoud.

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more.

The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law.

No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.
Indeed, a White House official told The Free Press that the basis for targeting Khalil is being used as a blueprint for investigations against other students. Khalil is a "threat to the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States," said the official, noting that this calculation was the driving force behind the arrest. "The allegation here is not that he was breaking the law," said the official.

You don't hate copyright enough.
Ars Technica article: "On Thursday, music labels sought to add nearly 500 more sound recordings to a lawsuit accusing the Internet Archive (IA) of mass copyright infringement through its Great 78 Project, which seeks to digitize all 3 million three-minute recordings published on 78 revolutions-per-minute (RPM) records from about 1898 to the 1950s.” Ars Technica Article: "If the labels' proposed second amended complaint is accepted by the court, damages sought in the case—which some already feared could financially ruin IA and shut it down for good—could increase to almost $700 million. (Initially, the labels sought about $400 million in damages.)"

📬🚨 HUGE NEWS 📬🚨

Trump plans to fire the USPS governing board, merge the Postal Service into the Commerce Department.

It would disrupt 55 years of non-political mail service, and threatens to upend trillions of dollars of ecommerce and the 250 year-old US mail system.

Even in my old mediocre office job, having stuff put into writing or requesting such was a huge life saver.

"would you please put that in writing" is how you pull off insubordination without actually being insubordinate. Very useful when you are getting sketchy (whatever 'sketchy' might mean) instructions from someone who might not want to take responsibility for it later.

Have you been asked, as a federal worker, to do something you don't want to do? But they won't put it in writing?

DON'T DO IT.

If they're going to punish you? MAKE THEM PUT IT IN WRITING. ALL OF IT.

Document, document, document.

Act confused. Be confused! Go slow. Require clarity. Lots. Document

i cancelled my spotify subscription and updated my artist bio 🥰

FUCK SPOTIFY
In November 2021, Spotify CEO Daniel Ek invested €100 million in Helsing, a company that uses AI to support militaries. [1] Spotify CFO Christian Luiga was the former CFO of Saab, a company that has also invested in Helsing and supplies arms to the IDF. [2] Spotify has an internal program called Perfect Fit Content, through which employees replace music from real artists on their curated playlists with low-budget slop from anonymous musicians to reduce royalty payouts. Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter revealed that ~20 songwriters were behind the work of more than 500 "artists", and that thousands of their tracks on Spotify had been streamed millions of times. [3] Spotify has also encouraged artists to enroll their tracks in Discovery Mode, a pay-to-play program wherein musicians and labels receive fewer royalties in exchange for "algorithmic promotion." [4] In 2024, Spotify stopped paying royalties for tracks under 1,000 yearly streams. [5] A better world is possible. Somewhere beyond the horizon, it must be.

A brutal and spot-on plea to corporate media from @ryanhatesthis.bsky.social
Welcome to 2025. No one reads your website or watches your TV show. Subscription revenue will never truly replace ad revenue and ad revenue is never coming back. All of your influence is now determined by algorithms owned by tech oligarchs that stole your ad revenue and they not only hate you, personally, but have aligned themselves with a president that also hates you, personally. The information vacuum you created by selling yourself out for likes and shares and Facebook-funded pivot-to-video initiatives in the 2010s has been filled in by random "news influencers," some of which are literally using _ChatGPT to write their posts. While many others are just making shit up to go viral. And the people taking over the country currently have spent the last decade, in public, I might add, crafting a playbook - one you dismissed - that, if successful, means the end of everything that resembles America. And that includes our free and open and lazy mainstream media. And they're pretty confident it'll succeed because, unlike you, they know how broken the internet is now and are happy to take advantage of it. While I'm sure it feels very professional to continue playing stenographer in your little folding chair at the White House, they're literally replacing you with podcasters as we speak. So this is it. Adapt or die. Or at the very least, die with some dignity.

Also, ICE requires a judicial warrant, not an administrative warrant. Know the differences.

In case it isn’t clear, this is a concentration camp. Please call your reps, tell them to demand complete stoppage of the use of Guantanamo Bay as a Trump’s concentration camp, and use that language so there’s no mistaking what we’re talking about here.
