😩 Well, that sucks. Looks like I'll need a replacement for a bunch of services. I already have a Bitwarden account I can use for my passwords, but I to find alternatives for secure email, VPN, and online storage that are end-to-end encrypted and not big tech. #protonmail #genai #aislop #E2EE #FOSS

you're goddamn right you guys did

We won not only against Bolsonaro, but against the full force of the USian's Big Techs, Meta, CIA, Trump, the Brazilian right-wing elites, the billionaires' press and more.

Brazil’s doing the meme.

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva came from behind to win Brazil’s runoff election, halting a right-wing wave sweeping Latin America and defying predictions that the 80-year-old political veteran had finally reached the end of his extraordinary career. bloom.bg/4BsvV24 📷: Maira Erlich/Bloomberg

bring back shame

The race to represent North Sound's 32nd Legislative District in the House hasn't been getting much attention, with Keith Scully and Danica Noble sharing positions on many issues. But comments at a recent forum provided more contrast. Story: www.theurbanist.org/daylight-shi...

Who would've predicted this ten years ago? Not me. www.cnbc.com/2026/10/21/a...

its also pretty wild how the article concludes Remember: this is a description of a man fleeing the scene after ramming two cyclists and seriously injuring one

don't you live in Hawaii bro

Had a great conversation with @soseaemerald.bsky.social Surprised that my opponent went with “We welcome newcomers, [but] not at the expense of our values.” *checks notes* I was born and raised here and value helping those furthest from opportunity… southseattleemerald.org/news/2026/10...

What's a melodic death metal band that was founded *in the last decade* that I should listen to? I love #Insomnium and #Be'Lakor, but I still want to discover new music without having to buy a streaming subscription. Recommend me something new. #metal #melodeath #melodicdeathmetal #music

this is like a reverse "daisy." an ad so reprehensible that it detonates the candidate's campaign. tiffinohio.net/posts/acton-...

Business Insider confirms it: Amazon has warehouses of GPUs that can’t be installed, and is buying them so far in advance that a supply chain team said they “didn’t have a clear forecasted path” to installing them. www.businessinsider.com/amazon-220-b...

How did you find out the young man’s identity, @wsj.com? hmm?

Do you disavow the Muslim Brother Mouzone?

Leftists have been saying this for years, that liberals are more afraid of the left than the right, and that they'd rather lose to the right than win with leftist in the coalition. And then James Carville opens his mouth... This was supposed to be a conspiracy theory!

The Nazis engineered the Reichstag fire and blamed it on a communist to justify suppressing the opposition. Any politician repeating the lie that DSA was behind this is complicit in spreading fascist propaganda. @demsocialists.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @seattledsa.org

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

among other things, this shooting really has me thinking back to Uvalde. a whole army of cops had each other's backs and were too scared to go after the shooter. versus one dad who heard shots and decided to act

Oh.

NEW: Ex CM Sara Nelson's new dark money group just threw $30k behind D5 candidate Julie Kang with the explicit promise of anonymity for donors to avoid public backlash. Now a progressive PAC has filed complaints and is determined to daylight the donors. www.theburnerseattle.com/post/new-dar...

New music genre just dropped. Also: A Tesla locks out cops, and more from around the web.

Unlike the raid on John Bolton, the targeting of Omar has elicited zero condemnation from NYT, WSJ, and Washington Post.

Homeownership has long been a central pillar of the American dream. A new book shows how that dream has enriched a few, excluded many, and debilitated the provision of public goods on which everyone depends.

VOTE NO ON I-645! My partner just got this very misleading text from the repeal folks. Tell everyone you know to VOTE NO on all of Heywood’s initiatives

Just look up what happened to the Roman Republic when the Senate allowed the Roman military to fund itself through conquest. #history #ancientrome #RomanRepublic

ESPN producer Nicole Noren quits over sports broadcasting's increasingly predatory promotion of gambling: “I’m not going to work for a gambling company and have blood on my hands.”

To those implying that Kremlin-controlled social media bot/troll farms became silent after Ukraine hit a Yandex data center, posting this CloudFare chart ( radar.cloudflare.com/bots/as13238 ): Hate to disappoint you all ⤵️

Wizards is responsible for industry-shaping games, but that isn’t reflected in how we’re treated. Stella Sherwin of the Duel Masters team is unionizing to change that. Show your support for our efforts and sign our petition! actionnetwork.org/forms/uwotcp...

all those people who called me "irresponsible" for advocating air strikes against specific data centers better be eating crow.

remarkable thing to admit

If your DSA chapter doesn’t have many people who are regularly doing both of these things you should start asking some tough questions about why and change course ASAP

For over a week, high school students and teachers in France have been protesting the state’s abandonment of the education system. The government response: send in police to subdue them.

How is this okay? Multiple masked men in plain clothing shoving a woman into an unmarked white van. STOP THE KIDNAPPING.

Sen. Collins faced Troy Jackson last night in their Maine Senate debate. On stage, Collins inaccurately described ProPublica’s story about an FBI anticorruption investigation that probed the conduct of her & her staff until Trump’s DOJ shut it down. Let’s get into the facts…

The mayor of Saint-Denis, Bally Bagayoko, literally used himself as a human shield to protect students from police violence

In the labor strife of the last few months, we see the clear impact of the two austerity budgets generated by the Wash. State Legislature in 2025-2026. Ferry worker sickouts; state employee walkouts; picketing by teachers and college staff: Each are consequences of deep cuts to state services.

For the first time, we’re partnering with labor unions to speed up and modernize hiring for city jobs. It should be easy, fast, and fair to find a good-paying job serving the city we call home — and after 100 years, we’re due for an update.

NEW: WA Ferries wanted you to think their workers are whiny babies who make $350k. The truth is more complicated and more sympathetic --- workers making $65k, engine room paid 20% less than above deck, and those making the big bucks working 70 hour weeks. www.theburnerseattle.com/post/washing...

I don't normally say this, but @governorferguson.bsky.social and @ferries.wsdot.wa.gov need to spend more time on Reddit. Read what ferry workers have to say. This isn't sustainable. #overtime #union #reddit #overwork @wsdot.wa.gov #unionstrong

*cough cough* Get your flu and COVID-19 shots folks! @ferries.wsdot.wa.gov I hear overwork is bad for your health. Maybe you could fix that by paying people enough that you're not replying on overtime to staff boats? #solidarity #union #fairpay @governorferguson.bsky.social @wsdot.wa.gov

Private Equity owns 1 out of every 8 apartments in America. Double the amount from just 5 years ago. This neo-feudalism is a massive problem for America. truthout.org/articles/pri...
