Big Tech should use their profits to build their own energy supply systems completely separate from other grids and with at least 80% being renewable. And no tax breaks. Stop corporate welfare. Put the power back into labor rather than capital.

1) From what we've seen this far, it's entirely possible that AI is already beyond human control and we 1) don't know it, 2) can't know it and also 3) will never know it unless the AI tells us. www.wired.com/story/the-an...

Jesus jumped up Christ, what the fuck is wrong with these people? www.wired.com/story/cool-c...
So Ukraine gets screwed relying on Elon Musk, and now the US is getting screwed relying on Elon Musk... Common denominator anyone? www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

Fine, let's reduce spending. And also TAX THE FUCK OUT OF CORPORATIONS AND THE ULTRA-RICH. Let's legislate predatory prices on essentially everything. Ban monthly subscription pricing. Ban corporate mergers. And send Musk back to South Africa. www.axios.com/2026/10/17/e...
Pushing hard to expand the good old American Police State
ICE is fast-tracking a $100 million domestic surveillance program to put agents in more than two dozen cities and DC, in what contracting and surveillance experts said would be a significant expansion of the agency’s ability to reach into private lives. buff.ly/ErYvHW7
Pretty impressive shift - $2M to $56M in a year. I wonder if Trump knew something or just really decided he liked pharmaceuticals. The world may never know! ground.news/article/trum...
So many conservative outlets lol I wonder how many articles they have about Musk's $366 Million that he's donated to Republicans this year. ground.news/article/ocas...
"A senior source told the Telegraph that after the chaos and violence that followed the restriction, Musk was concerned about negative consumer reactions in Europe." Anyone supporting Ukraine should drop their Starlink accounts.
NEW: Elon Musk approached Trump to slow down Starlink in Ukraine. kyivindependent.com/musk-asked-t...

"The job here is to enforce the federal civil rights laws, not woke ideology," Dhillon told Glenn Beck in an interview last year. When you think 'Civil Rights' equates to 'woke' ideology, it's a dark day for justice. www.npr.org/2026/10/11/g...
Ban late night comedy shows because they make fun of you, but televise literal executions of human beings. Sweet Christ this administration... www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...
So bomb Iran, further exacerbating the oil and diesel shortages, so if Dems take control of Congress they can point to oil and diesel shortages. If Dems don't take control, it's lying as usual about how great the economy is and how high his polling is. www.axios.com/2026/10/07/t...
This is the Civil War that Musk and all his Tech Bros have been chomping at the bit for. They want it to be on their terms. But the reality is that their view of the world and how it works is the minority. No one wants their shit. Except them and their ilk. time.com/article/2026...
Now if only we could get the SCOTUS boys to recuse themselves in decisions about womens' bodies... www.nytimes.com/2026/09/28/u...
I think the "is AI conscious" thing overestimates what consciousness is. What if LLMs are conscious, not because they're super advanced, but rather because human "consciousness" is pretty basic (and we only THINK we're super advanced)? www.404media.co/someone-tort...
@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @mayor.nyc.gov When Rector between Trinity and Broadway opens up again, it should be pedestrianized and cars should be kept to run up Trinity only (they're used to it by now!) It's what Alexander Hamilton would have wanted!
Astounding how much energy Trump & Co put into making sure they rig the system to their favor. No wonder all he can talk about is "rigged rigged rigged" - it's the only thing in his mind. www.propublica.org/article/trum...
So crazy. We are living through the biggest open-faced lie in the American Presidency. And yet we have no one that will stand up and take action. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
So long as SOMEONE can afford to pay!! What a dipshit. cleantechnica.com/2026/09/28/t...
It might be me, but does anyone remember that the US and Israel STARTED THIS FUCKING WAR???? It's the obligatory "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills" situation. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

HUGE: Autozone workers just won the first ever union at the company. Despite Autozone spending an estimated $210,696 and using every tactic in the book to stop just 11 workers from forming a union, the small shop in New York chose to unionize today. These workers will now join the @uaw.org.
Republican Playbook 101: Make something really shitty so you can point to it and say, "see how shitty this is? It must be destroyed" They've used this play in government for decades, now using it on buildings. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/a...
It's always weird to see when it's so blatant. theintercept.com/2026/09/23/d...
America was right there with them, yet very few Americans know anything at all about what the slave trade entailed and how much it, not only shaped both Britain and the new America, but more importantly how the echoes shape our present day. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/seri...
