When you dump your human shield….

It’s kinda funny / harrowing that LLMs didn’t get smarter or less brute-force-y, we just got better graphics cards, and more comfortable with wasting obscene energy on what still remains the most overrated madlibs ever. www.wsj.com/tech/ai/how-...

NEW: A federal judge raised alarm Friday that the Trump administration appeared to have deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with "no meaningful process" — even as her father was fighting to keep her in the country. Details w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Stephen Miller is running America

A summary of outdated Western myths about China vs the modern reality of Chinese manufacturing, by @nickdrom on IG. You can't call it "reshoring" when America has *never* manufactured the core products that are now in demand.

Im not American, but it is scary seeing how fast the trump admin is continuing to accelerate their fascist agenda. Australia must reject this in our elections, and whoever gets elected must have the guts to stand against USA’s mad king

Let’s be clear. Trump's arrest of Judge Dugan in Milwaukee has nothing to do with immigration. This latest attack is about one thing: unchecked power. It is time for my colleagues in the Republican Party to stand up to his growing authoritarianism.

I knew I made this for a reason

It finally happened. Just received my first confirmed evidence of ICE targeting an Afghan wartime ally (a former Afghan Army soldier who was granted legal asylum) for detention and possible deportation. He went live on social media with the agents attempting to enter his home in Oklahoma City.

20 minutes ago here in Venetie, Alaska, the skies erupted in a beautiful auroral substorm. Here is just one of many real-time videos I recorded during the show to give you a sense of how fast and dynamic the aurora can move.

There's a reason why they're freaking out over what's happening to Tesla. It's working. There's a reason they're threatening absurd consequences. They need to scare you back into civility and compliance. As long as we're reluctant to cross the lines they ignore daily, they have the upper hand.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

If direct air capture (DAC), a CO₂ removal (CDR) technique, costs $500 per tonne, removing just US emissions would cost ~$3 trillion annually (that's ~4x US military spending). It would also require twice the total power generation capacity of the US today (and it has to be 100% carbon-free).

People are wondering what Peter Dutton stands for. If you had to answer, you would say it’s nuclear power and deporting people, but not much else.” -unamed Coalition MP. That's a coalition mp #auspol

Angus Taylor was saying this morning that the Coalition's first task will be to "tackle inflation". Given Labor has already overseen inflation return to within the RBA's target band at 2.4%, that would seem pointless. And I still wouldn't trust him to deliver on it.

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

We have new laws with seriously dangerous consequences in response to what was a fake plot police believe was designed to divert attention and resources to enable other criminal acts. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Only in America could a Ketamine-infused South African oligarch call a navy captain, astronaut and sitting US senator "a traitor" for supporting our allies and standing up to Russia...

With the drop so far today Tesla has given up all the huge gains from late last year and is down over the past six months

Thinking of those bracing for TC Alfred. Climate change = more intense cyclones further south The major parties have ignored the risks we’re facing & investment in adaptation has been inadequate We need leadership to protect the people & places we love www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I expect nothing less from a Liberal #auspol

Hat tip: @jessedamiani.bsky.social

Trump claimed the Biden administration spent $8 million "making mice transgender." The White House tried to back up this number with records of funding for research into cancer, asthma, and HIV, some of which used *transgenic* (genetically modified) mice.

dutton throwing vague ‘Govt waste’ statements around, he knows that thousands of new employees were put on to improve services that the liberal cut to the bone . he is a liar #auspol

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

This actually tells you a lot.

One thing I'm fucken sick of hearing is that people on the poverty line "don't want handouts." Well, the rich take hand outs. Maybe they're rich bc they were offered handouts. Maybe they're rich bc they take them. This "shame in receiving free money" for the poor but not the rich makes me SO MAD

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

All websites that depend on NOAA data should display something like this. earth.nullschool.net

“You cannot run diggers with electricity.” someone replied to a post on EVs saying the application of battery electric vehicles is limited. Well here you go - this is the biggest all electric digger in the world. www.canadianminingjournal.com/news/sms-del...

The ABC is now totally beholden to Zionists and supporters of genocide "Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu presses for Gaza ceasefire extension" Just get stuffed.

A thing I wish more people knew is that measles is basically the most contagious disease in the world

#auspol Read this and decide if this is what you want in Australia. Because if Dutton gets in, this is what you will have. #PutLNPlast #NoDutton #NoLNP #NoCDC My $30,000 health insurance claim was denied. Then I tweeted about it

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”? But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"? Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

There are no proven benefits to raw feeding yet plenty of serious, well-documented risks. It has never been a good idea but ESPECIALLY NOW. washingtonstatestandard.com/briefs/two-w...

“You’re terminated because…?” Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside. DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

After all the years of bullshitting us about their green plans, even turning their logo into a flower, BP turns out to be as crap as we always suspected. And BP shareholders, equally crap. Yes, equally crap.
