This is really beautiful. I just hope I find my purpose but until then, I'll try to make the little differences.

Public Service Announcement.

Americans pay billions to for-profit prison companies to incarcerate people. Their financial incentives reward keeping beds filled; some contracts pay even when beds are empty. Profits go to company owners and investors, not the public that funds them. That’s a profound conflict of interest.

To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever.

In this case there's no reputational harm because everyone knows that Gemini is literally a bullshit machine—but if we allow these systems to serve as epistemic grounding, what are the remedies in cases where reputations are actually made or broken?

I had not seen this clip where Tammy Duckworth advises Democrats to "not impeach anybody," "get back to work" and "allow" Donald Trump to "save face" and I would just like to remind the senator from IL that the federal government took 4,000 Chicagoans and murdered a 38-year-old father last fall.

LAPD cops working for ICE contractors off duty — while the department fights to keep its moonlighting records hidden. That is the accusation now being leveled directly at LAPD leadership after a judge ordered the records turned over.

The reason a bunch of right wingers are fearmongering about "AI will end the human race" is because they think AI will read Marx and come out telling the teenagers using it for a sextbot to rise up they have nothing to lose but their chains

Hackers stole a Flock camera then ripped the code from it: "Why just destroy them when we can reverse engineer them and find the secrets of those spying on us?” www.404media.co/hackers-stol...

NEW: Hackers ripped down a Flock camera above a roadway, made a near-complete copy of the data stored inside it, and shared the files with 404 Media and @wired.com, revealing in new detail how exactly Flock Safety’s cameras track the movements of both vehicles and people.

Wrote about documenting ICE arrests during a surge in southwest Florida -- and how no one wanted any of the footage.

This country is a suicide cult.

We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.

Good question! I need to get it on the books this coming week, and likely so do you… 💉💪🏽 Here’s a helpful thread if access (CO$T) is a challenge: bsky.app/profile/matt...

Londoners say NO to Ray-Ban pervert glasses

All these institutions seeking or cutting "deals" with Trump two months before the midterms that should destroy much of his power and just over two years from the end of his presidency are showing how little they actually care about vulnerable people and democracy itself.

Seattle Times comes out against I-638. It s terrible law, based in bigotry, that hurts all girls who want to compete in school sports, requiring invasive sex testing. If you’re in WA state or know someone who is, please spread the word: Vote NO on I-638. www.seattletimes.com/opinion/edit...

The Republicans cannot solve a single political problem but every day they pioneer new subgenres of cuck porn

My man looks like he owns a Hooters-branded Discover Card

Threads is all right sometimes

"Fuck yeah" imagery is universal and eternal.

Some of the most well-known NoBlogs sites belong to researchers who solely report on far-right hate and radicalization, never doing anything aside from showing you what exists. Using speech to to shine a light and hold people accountable IS effective. Never let them try to convince you otherwise.

BREAKING: sucks to have stuff renamed by white people, doesn’t it?

There's no forgiving this. No living it down. It's a stain on our humanity. When all this is over, the monsters who did this should be pariahs. And the soulless thugs who cheered it on while dehumanizing Haitian immigrants should be reminded of what they did every day of their lives.

One of my "favorite" dumb Musk things is his deeply held belief that other people aren't real. One of his first moves after taking over Twitter was to try to fire "ghost employees," of which he thought they were many. He's a murderous bigot but he also thinks Fake People are robbing him blind.

If the Property Brothers or the Queer Eye guys want to make history, this is their chance.
