‘To the men who ran the world, I was just a photo op’: Malala Yousafzai on growing up, getting cynical – and how getting high nearly broke her The global icon of women’s education is ready to tell the full story of her turbulent recent life, from arguing with her parents to being ghosted by the statesmen who were once desperate to be seen wi...

trying weed nearly broke her (for the 1st time, she remembered being shot—& then the trauma she’d avoided ensued) www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o... her bravery is as endless as the burden of her fame

Apple removes ICEBlock app from App Store Apple on Thursday removed the immigration enforcement tracking app, ICEBlock, from the App Store, citing "safety risks."

There's nothing illegal about ICE block. This is solely about Apple appeasing the Trump regime.

With Google removing sideloading next year, these companies will have total control over what runs on your phone.

Microsoft blocks the Israeli military from some cloud and AI services The Guardian revealed last month that Microsoft’s services were being used for mass surveillance of Palestinians.

Some stories you may not be aware of if you’re not inside the circles where tech industry workers talk to each other: the groups at Microsoft that have been organizing for years to stop providing tech to enable genocide scored their first massive victory last week. www.theverge.com/news/785733/...

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

The entire global economy is currently so over-leveraged on "AI" that if we don't find a credible use case for it, and fast, we're likely to tumble into an economic meltdown of 2008 proportions, so please, your corporate overlords beg you, use "AI" to write that fucking email

The administration plans to attack public festivities in Chicago around Mexican Independence Day (which may include this weekend's parade in Pilsen or related activities) because they want to attack folks in settings where people will try to protect and hold onto community members.

We Deserve Way, Way More Time Off There is much more to life than work. We all have families, friends, and a beautiful world to enjoy. We need more time off to enjoy it.

Happy Labor Day! We labor too much! I wrote on the beauty of not working.

I think one of the things people misunderstand about being anti-ChatGPT and related products is that they are being forced into institutions and other products and services in ways that affect all of our lives whether they work or *not* and we will all have to deal with the consequences

One cool way to solve homelessness that isn’t an authoritarian take over of a city is to give everyone homes

We view hoarding as a mental disorder except in the one very specific case of money, and it’s killing the planet

America constantly tells teachers that they’re supposed to do it for the love of the job, not to get “rich” at 50K. But then you’ve got members of Congress making almost 200K acting like they’ll starve if they can’t do insider trading and manipulate the stock market

What’s a technology that you think is overhyped? I’m going to give a sideways answer to this, which is that the venture capital business model needs to be understood as requiring hype. You can go back to the Netscape IPO, and that was the proof point that made venture capital the financial lifeblood of the tech industry. Venture capital looks at valuations and growth, not necessarily at profit or revenue. So you don’t actually have to invest in technology that works, or that even makes a profit, you simply have to have a narrative that is compelling enough to float those valuations. So you see this repetitive and exhausting hype cycle as a feature in this industry. A couple of years ago, you would have been asking me about the metaverse, then last year, you would have asked me about Web3 and crypto, and for each of these inflection points there’s an Andreessen Horowitz manifesto. It’s not simply that one piece of technology is overhyped, it’s that hype is a necessary ingredient of the current business ecosystem of the tech industry. We should examine how often the financial incentive for hype is rewarded without any real social returns, without any meaningful progress in technology, without these tools and services and worlds ever actually manifesting. That’s key to understanding the growing chasm between the narrative of techno-optimists and the reality of our tech-encumbered world.

A very good thread from one of my favorite posters about how good, useful mental health care and police culture aren’t complementary or compatible

When you strip away humanity

I think some people have trouble seeing fascism as anything other than 1940s Germany.

But I think 'people going to a comic convention needing to have a plan in case the government's goons show up to disappear people' is a pretty good demonstration of what it can look like in 2025.

Very instructive thread 🧵

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.

I think talking immediately about how it's too bad Zohran can't run for president or how Lander should run for Congress is missing the point. we don't need to elevate individual heroes as high as possible, we need to find as many principled people as possible and empower them everywhere

Do it, lady.

On the left, start it. On the right, start it. On the left, I suggest, while we’re left, start it.

Btw she’s arguing with a family friend who’s also a lawyer.

Yall asking Grok questions like it’s not pumping out 1000 cubic meters of poison gas into South Memphis every 15 minutes all so MFs can get a corny ass screenshot to dunk on.

ZACH DE LA ROCHA: some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses

I listened to this virtually and the whole panel was fantastic, but your remarks specifically were extremely useful and spot-on. Thank you for sharing with us!

Some Thoughts on Techno-Fascism From Socialism 2025 "This is the endgame of our isolation."

Why am I squeezing in a conference before I go on medical leave? Because it's my favorite conference of the year. These are the people I want to be with when so many things are going wrong. For those of you who aren't at @socialismconference.org, here are some remarks I shared today.

ICEblock, which allows users to alert others to the geographical location of ICE officers, is the top social networking app in the App Store right now after Karoline Leavitt condemned it from the podium yesterday.
