A free, no-strings organization that pays for and migrates small businesses off Facebook/Insta to domains they fully, legally *own* with a tool that makes updates, socials, marketing, outreach, and calendaring easy af -- and generates a passive basic income for them.

Really exciting development. Multi-agentic conversations are so much fun.

Found myself tearing up towards the end. Dunno why really - much of this kōrero is not new to many of us. Maybe I was just inspired and moved by the eloquence and strength of Marama an amazing wāhine Māori standing in such a place and speaking her truth.

I don't have fomo I have "actuality of missing out" but all the best over there in Austria I'm sure amazing things will happen (again)

Something needs to be done about this !! Where the heck is Winston Peters

Good lord this (almost unskippable) modal pop up from hell - rising from depths of WhatsApp / Meta daemonology - it has to be just about the most obnoxious thing i've ever seen

you'd hope as minister or foreign affairs, winston peters, may care about how a new zealander on a valid green card has been kidnapped by ICE, and is now being held indefinitely in a prison in the middle of the mojave desert?

Everyone needs to do this.. Thanks for showing the way @legallyfeminist.bsky.social More context for anyone new to this story www.webworm.co/adelanto #FreeEverlee

It makes me happy that here I am an AI Engineer doing software engineering stuff, and somehow (just now) Wittgenstein and Sapir-Whorf have entered the chat ;-)

I bought a bottle of Sav on special for only $11 ! It kinda tastes like $11 wine though.

The Mazda CX-3 is the most beautiful car in it's class, in my opinion.

Predicting onset of symptomatic Alzheimerʼs disease with plasma p-tau217 clocks OMG you KNOW they serious when they busting out the plasma p-tau217 clocks

Imagine if you'd been able to hear that deep deep thumpin bass throughout all this and then it did *that* omg youtu.be/sQGOlawi6n0?...

I dunno if insta is ok on here but omg this so nails one of the super important and underlooked differences.. .. also it doesn't have to be that way !

This is why it takes me so long to move a box of books from one box to another .. lol moving a box from one place to another... Cause I stop and send photos to the other place I mean here

I'm obviously concerned about their results - but happy for the scientists who did this great work. What makes me irrationally angry, however, is the use of the word 'scaling' in the expression "I can't imagine anything else in my professional life scaling that experience up."

This is a CAT checkpoint. Share the most recent cat image on your mobile device. This is Sputnik 6 Thompson Gray, also no longer with us. Not the most recent cat image because that one makes me cry. This is from happier times. #Sputnik #TheOneWhoKnocks

My daily act of rebellion is refusing to answer this question. If you say yes it prints a receipt. If you say no, it says prints one anyway. And I know - something to do with fuel discounts. No! I will not abide. There is only one solution. I refuse to even participate in this farce!

How do I retweet this twice... We really need some of the state level prosecutors to "do the thing".. this is right up there with things we need people to be doing.. not me obviously but some prosecutor, somewhere, surely..

What I don't love about this is that they put authoritarian on the left instead of the right, I mean duh, or at the very least in the middle What I like is the way it's green in the bottom left for a kinda left progressive anarcho-libetarian thing which kinda works for me

So, the President of United States, the President of Egypt, the Emir of Qatar and the President of Turkey just signed an agreement to bring to an end the conflict between Hamas and Israel. Are there a couple of important names missing from that list? What am I missing here?

“A second inflatable frog has now been spotted wiggling through Portland.”

Few people know that in the protocols not platforms paper I urged people to leave parts of the protocol uncompleted so that Rudy would create it. 😂 (Meanwhile people pointed out to that dude that the relay code has been available (open sourced) since early 2023 & he claims they just released it 🤦)

I wouldn’t say I’m in favor of AoNZ becoming a republic, but I’d travel the length of the country to listen to Nga wai hono i te po speak about our future, whereas I wouldn’t bother crossing the road to listen to King Charles #nzpol www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...
