If god has a plane and we got rid of our downtown building height limits, this doesn’t bode well for the future :(

you shouldn’t talk to a journalist about how people in need of abortions access them when abortions are outlawed, and this is no different.

shutting the fuck up is free.

I wonder if we need lists that block commenters and other accounts that engage with the govt accounts.

Maintaining such a list would probably define the shape off trollfarm botnets really well to boot, indirectly document the scope of harassment perpetrated on behalf of the govt tbh

US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.

Block on sight.

Protect your digital space.

Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.

The detach quote function will come in very handy here…

It's like the 1980s all over again.

"AI" is the hot new tech thing
A terrible showbiz guy is president
Russia is threatening Europe
There's a pandemic that people ignore
They even released a new Commodore 64

(To expand a bit, I have a pet theory that a specific private equity firm is waving money in front of different orgs and people and is deliberately trying to push more fashtech out there into the news cycles for open source, and DHH is one such vehicle for achieving that)

Does anyone know if Framework got a series of funding from some FashTech private equity firm?

The focus on Omarchy despite the clear warning signs feels like it is coming from an investor push from the same type of private equity that keeps the Fireship yt channel pushing the same flavor of project

Go fash lose cash 👊🇺🇸🔥

Split it into 4 easy payments with Klarna and then file bankruptcy, it’ll fall off your credit report in 7 years 🥰

The Old Boy's Club is backlashing hard on all fronts--gender, race, ability, class, you name it. The fascism is metastasised fratriarchy and fratriarchy is the structural power of the elite defined by those exclusions, those abjections.

So I'd like to show a demonstration of what this "waffles" thing is. Here's a conversation between *this site's* CEO, some random guy, and the cofounder of "Tangled", a GitHub clone built on top of Bluesky's protocol.

Please take a moment to really think, about the shape of this thoughtlessness.

if lowtax's ex-wife is saying you remind her of fucking lowtax maybe you should stop posting

let's try something

Repost this Post if you're never going to click a single ad on this web site while this shit continues

When Bean does this he's asking for me to pet him when he eats rather than asking for more food.

It's a social eater thing for him. I rub his ribs so it's like he's trying to "push through other cats" to get to the food bowl and he purrs so much

Screen capture from Hackers (1995), showing a small CRT TV with the informercial.

First thing Dade does in Hackers? Push a white suprematist TV infomercial (literally called "America First") off the air.

I think the movie really holds up really well overall.

Truly the American experience.
(I hope it does go away and hope you do feel better soon 🙏)

Note the secret service’s hands doing the Illuminati gesture.

They fully are puppeteering the husk and delaying its passing as he has more work to do to pace the path for the new world order.

(This is a joke, just to be super very clear)

So much for the glitchless% run lol

Please work on legislation to make federal agents liable and chargeable at the state level for this. Give them lengthy prison sentences, 20+ years, for endangering our communities like this.

We need you to work on actually protecting us and driving the federal menaces from our state.

The only reason they’re doing this is to try and get AI embedded in public policy so when the bubble bursts the companies get bailed out with our tax money. I wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest if there’s massive bribes happening behind the scenes right now.

Apropos of nothing, a reminder that German stock markets kept climbing in an almost uninterrupted fashion in the run-up to WW2. Investors are really, really bad at pricing serious institutional and political risks.

Really needed to hear the “culture comes top down, not bottom up” line.

Current org is very… the company would be cool if the culture being imbued from above wasn’t a clown show of mediocre men focused on “deliverables” while the deliverable might as well be a pizza handed over upside down

I made it into week 2 on the job before they informed me :^)

Kicker: they are hiring another person to grow the department for the same role, with the same misleading job posting.

At some point states need to start writing legislation to protect employees from this.

We will make it through though. Some time to recover first is step 1, and then we can start moving on from there to find places that won’t just mislead us.

We got this 😤

Just. After a break from job hunting.

I’m in a similar boat. Basically lied to outright about the job being fully remote and had a complete switch up that “because I’m local” I have to go in office semi-frequently.

Coupled with mismanagement leading to bad workloads, I’m having to sit and recoup a bit before job hunting again

Why does a file that contains parts of the constitution need to be updated?

Solarpunk!

feels like one of the main divides in how people view ai is the reaction to its ingratiating servile tone. when ai is like "ouhhhh i'm so sorry i got that wrong sir, let my try again, you were right my liege" tech guys are like "i like this" instead of "what the fuck is wrong with you"
