It’s not the start of an oligarchy. — We’re in the thick of it.
Donald Trump letting you know how the authoritarian capture of the media is going, in case you missed it. Unlike other authoritarians in places like Hungary and Poland he has no worries about advertising his authoritarian take over of the media.
Saw an advert for AI where the guy was like "help me write something that sounds like me."
BITCH.
YOU'RE YOU.
⚠️ Bad and ominous news—this case conflated antifascist and anti-ICE protests with terrorism:

Have fun! We are coming to London to see Cynthia Erivo’s one woman Dracula on stage.
Polymarket, Kalshi and all the rest of these prediction markets need to be wiped off the face of the earth. They provide absolutely nothing of value and are corrupting everything they touch.
The secretary of defense saying we almost have cnn in our grasp is some dark, dark shit
WIRED named the DOGE operative accused here of planning to take Social Security data to his new job. It's John Solly, and he works for the government contractor Leidos, a company that has millions in contracts with SSA.

it's quite surreal how we've completely normalized the fact that a good 70% of our business, political, and tech press exists exclusively to blow smoke up the ass of the wealthy, creating elaborate mythologies for otherwise unremarkable people
Me too! Although a long day of ✈️ to get there. Have a good time there!
nobody is blackmailing Lindsey Graham. No one is blackmailing Glenn Greenwald. No one is blackmailing Donald Trump.
These people are all doing evil things and saying evil shit *because they are evil and want to do evil things.* 1
As someone who went on the Internet for the first time in the early 90’s, I fucking loved the Internet. It has given so many things in life, and afforded me so many incredible experiences.
And to see it, and technology in general where they are today is kinda soul crushing.
🤣
Still no censure of Tommy Tuberville, Randy Fine, or Andy Ogles, who are openly promoting hate against Muslims while the US is bombing Iran, killing the Ayatollah, and people like Lindsey Graham are calling it a "religious war" DURING RAMADAN.
How do you think this all ends, folks?
The whole "AI" industry is just based on the hope that they can deskill people fast enough that they'll have to rent back cognitive support systems. Forever.
It's like Uber. Just that they don't try to break existing transportation infrastructures but your brain.
Some Tech CEO every day: "You don't get to own things now. I own your refrigerator. If you say mean things about me I will turn off your fridge and spoil all your dairy and eggs and meat. If you don't like it you go to jail."
People in my mentions: "Lmao are you REALLY a luddite? smh"
the stink of gender resentment coming off Silicon Valley has been obvious for a while. these men hate women because they hate being told no.
42 people. millions of trans people are being tortured by their governments because of 42 people.
This is a cartoon villain just spilling his entire cartoon villain plot as if he were in the second act of a James Bond movie. They think they don’t have to hide it anymore because they expect to never be out of power again.
So if using AI actually does erode human cognition the way studies suggest, then it's a feature instead of a bug?
The world is gross enough without "take away people's ability to think so we can sell it back to them" being on the list.
over a hundred little girls are "the right people." we are the terrorists
Honestly a perfect distillation of Republican Party platform
“Kill whoever we want and cut taxes for richest people”
Turning the world over to madmen. That is what is happening. Madmen.
Trump is spending $1 billion a day waging war on Iran. Meanwhile...
Trump's sons are investing in a drone company that could soon receive Pentagon contracts.
And of course Trump's Big Oil donors stand to gain windfall profits as the price of oil skyrockets.
War is a racket.
Utility safety concerns about plug-in solar panels prompted 5 states to delay votes on enabling legislation. Germany has 1.2 million balcony solar panels registered with no safety problems reported. Here's my @npr.org story: www.npr.org/2026/03/12/n...
WASHINGTON (AP) — Pentagon tells Congress the first week of the Iran war cost the US $11.3 billion
Imagine how many people 11.3 Billion dollars could feed- in the US, in Sudan, in Gaza- imagine all the starving children in this world
