Doomsday Clock 2026: Scientists set new time By Kristen Rogers , CNN

The Doomsday Clock now stands at 85 seconds to midnightβ€”the closest it has ever been. When the New START treaty expires next week, there will be nothing stopping a new nuclear arms race. Trump and Putin could agree today to stick with New START limits. We can turn back the clock.

For every act of violence against observers captured on camera, there are a dozen Minnesotans doing the quiet quotidian work that keeps others safe. The occupying force can’t comprehend that. That is why they will lose.

Vielleicht sollten sich deutsche Nachrichtenmedien die kursierenden Videos aus #Minneapolis, die verschiedene Blickwinkel zeigen, erst einmal anschauen, bevor sie die LΓΌgen des US-Heimatschutzministeriums als ganz normale Aussage wiedergeben.

So, hypothetically, if you were to make a solo-cup-in-chain-link-fence message over an overpass, you’d be putting in the letters backwards. And, again hypothetically, you might want a template for that.

Hypothetically.

"I should say so," O'Brien said. "For a moment there, I suspected you of the thoughtcrime of believing that Donald J.
Trump, the president of the United States, would be willing to torch the country's credibility, set fire to its alliances, and tank the entire economy to acquire some territory in the North Atlantic whose name he could not even remember."
The member of Congress sighed. "No,
" he
said. "No, you're right. We'd better do Iceland too. In case." He shut his eyes.

There’s some comfort in knowing Miller and Vance got it so wrong and that their degenerate ideas about the world are being rejected by normal people who care about their communities.

Every time Trump breaks the clear letter of the law, the NYT and WaPo write a story about how he’s β€œpushing boundaries” or β€œtesting the limits of his authority”

He's not Chuck Yeager, guys. He's a crook.

I'm sorry. As a technology writer, I'm supposed to be telling you that this bet will some day pay off, because one day we will have shoveled so many words into the word-guessing program that it wakes up and learns how to actually do the jobs it is failing spectacularly at today. This is a proposition akin to the idea that if we keep breeding horses to run faster and faster, one of them will give birth to a locomotive. Humans possess intelligence, and machines do not. The difference between a human and a word-guessing program isn't how many words the human knows.

I'm sorry. I know that when we talk about "digital sovereignty," we're obliged to talk about how we can build more data-centres that we can fill up with money-losing chips from American silicon monopolists in the hopes of destroying as many jobs as possible while blowing through our clean energy goals and enshittifying as much of our potable water as possible.

BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good?

BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

Just saw this after posting the Talarico anti-corruption proposals. Crockett should make a big show of returning the crypto/tech fascist money. We don't need that shit polluting the party.

There shouldn’t be a Department of Homeland Security. It’s a grab bag of various agencies under a dangerously murky heading which can and now has been co-opted for a fascist transition.
Abolish ICE and redistribute the other agencies.
