i can’t take the hypocrisy in so much western media coverage of israel’s bombing of iran and iran’s retaliation. israel can do whatever it wants and they’ll find a way to legitimize it, but iran is positioned as fundamentally evil and thus deserving of attack and bloodthirsty in its response.

Why are we doing any of this? Seems like big tech is inventing a new kind of nuclear weapon for no reason at all.

World Central Kitchen has run out of food to serve in Gaza. Its bakery ("recently the last working bakery in Gaza") is out of flour. There are 100,000+ tons of food in staging areas within driving distance of Gaza, and Israel refuses to let them in wck.org/news/gaza-up...

God the EU Commission is exhausting. Do these people seriously think they can demand a “lawful access” backdoor in US-hosted messaging apps, and that US intelligence won’t use that tool to relentlessly spy on EU interests? www.politico.eu/article/encr...

yet another reason not to use uber: if a driver takes off with your sleeping kid in the back seat, they won’t help you or the police to find your kid or contact the driver. how this company continues to be allowed to operate under its current model is baffling to me.
