One of my favorite meditations on this is Lena by @qntm.org (qntm.org/mmacevedo) where achieving digital uploading is an utter horror story

Read this a few years back. It’s prescient. For months, I have been trying to locate this story again.

It’s a bunker.

I'm obsessed with Twig 💡

Oh my god some fucking tech dingdong posted this on Twitter with the caption "AI games are going to be amazing" totally seriously, you have to watch it. You have to. In full screen.

Sign saying "Days since Last Republican Nazi Thing:" over a digital read out of the number 0.

“Even so, Smoke: you could help us. In the States the only ones who believe that the fascists are coming again are the ones trying to help them.”

I'll leave you from Portland with one last video of the @unpresidentedbrass.bsky.social, the unofficial house band of #NoKings

Wow! Love your creativity Ocean Beach (San Francisco)!

Hackers Dox Hundreds of DHS, ICE, FBI, and DOJ Officials Scattered LAPSUS$ Hunters—one of the latest amalgamations of typically young, reckless, and English-speaking hackers—posted the apparent phone numbers and addresses of hundreds of government officials...

New: hackers just doxed hundreds of DHS, ICE, FBI, and DOJ officials. I went through the data. In many cases does look legitimate, sometimes includes residential addresses.

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."

Photo of a burned out shell of an abandoned storefront, the second-floor wall entirely missing is shown. The business' sign reads, "The Ultimate Laser Adventure." MEME text asks What kind of lasers were they fucking using?

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Not happening somewhere else. Here. In America. Right now.

Screenshot showing two lines of white text on a dark background. Top line reads "Democrat Shutdown in Imminent 05:43:10", bottom line reads "The WHITE HOUSE"

In case you were wondering how things are looking on the White House website, the landing page is showing a countdown to the "Democrat Shutdown"

I do not understand why they cannot get the headlines right.

Just follow the gop playbook!

“Repubs control it all! The shutdown is on them!”

As nauseum.

Don’t lead with the nuance.

Students mourn at FSU after mass shooting that left two dead.

Weird how the trial for the pro-Trump, white nationalist mass shooter who is accused of murdering two students at Florida State University (FSU) is about to start and hardly any news is talking about it. www.msn.com/en-us/crime/...

The White House is continuing to pressure more states to gerrymander their congressional maps because they are afraid of voters holding them accountable for their unpopular policies.

This is a decisive moment for our democracy. Take action to fight back against this power grab. ⬇️

Republicans can’t win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their way to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.

McSweeney’s wins again.

“Why aren’t you arresting my political enemies faster?” is a hell of a thing to ask as another story about excusing your political allies drops.

"Let’s put a stop to the same old partisan sniping and divisiveness about healthcare, defense, and who’s striking whom with a bulging sock full of US currency."
