I am so serious when I say that there is a direct line to be drawn between Evangelism having no meaningful concept of the future save death and American conservatives having zero awareness of or interest in the future consequences of their actions

Rewatching MST3K: The Return & The Gauntlet. Currently on Avalanche, which has SO much 70s, and some fantastic riffs. Skater practicing a spin on ice: "I really thought she'd turn into Wonder Woman by now."

Itβs worth noting that the premise worked because the idea of betting on whether people lived or died in real
life was so morally monstrous that only the idle entrenched soul-dead rich would get a kick out of it. In 2016.
We have news companies partnering with them now, and they run ads.

This is why I will absolutely never get into booktok crap. It mainly promotes ignorance from people who don't actually read. And readers: don't do this shit. No author wants to hear that you'd prefer all media you consume to reflect only your taste.

DHS wants to build a system to surveil Americansβ travel records
Previously unreported documents show the agency has asked companies for input. Last year, a similar program was shuttered over public outcry.
SCOOP: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the US Secret Service want to build a tool for tracking US travelersβ flights and other personal information, according to previously unreported documents reviewed by Mother Jones.

If you have a few bucks to spare to send my way as I prepare for foot surgery in March and a 3 months of disability leave for recovery, I'd greatly appreciate it. My income is about to take a hit. Anything helps.

Dirty Data
An ERC investigation looking into the cost of data center infrastructures powering AI and the people paying the price.
New to me: Dirty Data, a collaborative project featuring 40 journalists across Asia, Latin America, and Europe investigating data centers, their impacts, and how communities are fighting back against data center construction. The website includes original reporting and an interactive map.

btw about that pixar thing, the reason why these people think having a conversation about gay people with kids is difficult is because they don't know a way to say to their kid "gay people are normal but you are not allowed to be one" without sounding like a bigot (there is a reason for that)

A striking digital composite celebrating Ada Lovelace, the world's first computer programmer. On the left is a vibrant, colorized restoration of her iconic 1838 portrait, showing her in a deep purple velvet gown with white lace accents and an elegant headdress. She gazes with sharp, visionary intelligence toward the right of the frame. Occupying the right side of the image is the intricate mechanical hardware of the Analytical Engine trial model - a complex assembly of vertical brass rods, interlocking gears, and polished metal dials. Floating subtly over the mechanical parts is a translucent overlay of her handwritten 1843 Bernoulli algorithm (Note G), showing the logical mathematical table that served as the world's first software. The composite beautifully illustrates the transition from 19th-century mechanical engineering to the birth of modern computing, representing Adaβs unique philosophy of "Poetical Science." The lighting unifies the historical portrait and the brass machinery into a single, cohesive moment of discovery. Credit: Seriously Scientific.
Remembering Ada Lovelace on International Women's Day!
A century before computers, she saw that machines could do more than just math.
By writing the first algorithm for the Analytical Engine, she became the worldβs first programmer and predicted the digital age we live in today!π»
