"...the only thing Sonic hates is oppression." Sonic has gone woke! (Jk, this is from 1999 😉)

"Surveillance fascism thrives on your complacency."

maxmurphy.xyz/p/goodbye-su... This blog post outlines clearly where we are and where we're headed. The billionaire tech industry has become a gangrenous appendage on society and the only solution is amputation.

Enlightened centrists are all like accesspartnership.com/uk-encryptio.... #encryption #labour

So DOGE got hacked already

This thread contains much essential information about my Garage Punk/Bluesabilly band, The Spike Direction Effect.

I was looking at presearch.com which seems to return decent search results but a bit cryptobro and jank. Probably marginally less evil than Google who seem to want to do military AI stuff now. Might give it a go for a bit

When Trump and Musk do take control of Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and so on what this also means is that fascist leaders across Europe will benefit from that. Farage, Le Pen, the AfD, Geert Wilders all pushing their propaganda, suppressing dissent and making their lists. #meta #resist

We will find out in short order that big tech America is quite vulnerable to wrench based security issues when it comes to what is allowed (xkcd)

I don't think that US based corporate social media is going to continue to be a good platform for people to organise against Trump on. He's a fascist, him and Musk are going to own meta etc. So far they've shown they're willing to use crude measures to get r/whitepeopletwitter suspended - censorship

Somehow B&Q have managed to cock up sending me literally just a box.

It seems pretty clear that Trump's offer of a "deal" for no tarrifs for the UK is aimed at isolating us even further from the EU. They will make us completely dependent on the US and use that leverage to its fullest extent.

Ostrich fascism

I'm probably preaching to the choir on here, but just a reminder.. #facebook #socialmedia #technology

Lol Alibaba is now making the western tech giants look like clowns as well. Couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch.

Just set the process in motion to delete our music from streaming services, it’ll be back, but in a new form, reconfigured to focus on newer material. More importantly, everything remains, and shall always remain, on bandcamp. Mostly now pay-what-you-want! spikedirection.bandcamp.com

guys will go down a k-hole and start promoting fascism internationally rather than go to therapy

Somehow it's unsurprising that China figured out how to make AI/LLMs cheaper than tech's most odious grifters

Trump swing supporters "we voted for him because the economy!!" Also Trump swing supporters: "trade wars, yaaaayy" Leaded fuel has a lot to answer for, just saying

Video game movie that probably doesn't need to happen but I would definitely watch: Untitled Goose Game: The Movie Or maybe untitled goose movie?
