Through the course of this fuckery I’ve noticed that there appears to be no strategy beyond sheer chaos and acceleration. They are making cuts and firing people indiscriminately, which will inevitably affect their own constituents. What is the end goal here beyond just being king of the ashes?

Mochi says “All my friends hate Meta”

Trump's Office of Women's Health added a whole page devoted to transphobia under the guise of "protecting women and children." It's not trans-people women and children need protecting from, its cis-men. We are harassed, abused, assaulted, raped, and murdered every-fucking-day by cis-men.

This is the second midwest columbiner in under two months to plot a mass shooting. Its almost as if there aren’t a litany of public UwU fan cams of Dylan Roof and other mass shooters all over Tumblr and TikTok at any given moment. www.indystar.com/story/news/c...

Why does Cyberpunk 2077, with its enormous soundtrack, keep torturing me with the shittiest adult contemporary-counting crows-ass song during seemingly every sentimental character cutscene?

Chatted with some friends of mine about one of my favorite topics: horror films! More specifically Ti West’s porno slasher flick and first in the Maxxxine trilogy, ‘X’ 🔪 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

Interesting dichotomy between the response to this article here vs on X where right wing users are denigrating the author mostly for their gender, unlike here where they are being taken to task for having a horrible personality. You just know they frequent Dimes Square. (but live in Brooklyn)

I know I’m tapping the sign again but our cyberpunk dystopia is here and it’s really fucking stupid.

Robert Eggers next film is titled “WERWULF” and Imma let him cook but I fear he is starting to fly a little too close to the white pride sun.

Been seeing a lot of folks imply that Elon’s nazi salute was just a troll but I’m here to argue that we have plenty of evidence that he is aspiring to be a card carrying Nazi. For one: he has been pushing great replacement theory for some time now www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

I liked TikTok because I got to be who I really am in my heart: a creepy little lurker who watches everything and says little.

While the FDA is out here being useless banning red food dye over dubious claims of risk, a reminder that they absolutely refuse to approve new sun filters which are more effective, more water resistant, and used all over the world — except in America.

Made this playlist whiskey drunk one night in Seattle as an alternative soundtrack to the movie “Trouble in Mind” but also as a love letter to David Lynch, may his brilliant soul rest in peace 🥀 open.spotify.com/playlist/5is...

Banning TikTok is a bad move especially if the same legislation and concern of surveillance and data extraction is not being applied to American social media. However, joining Red Note is certainly not the answer if you care at all about freedom of expression, privacy, and human rights.

We're down to the wire here, but the UW Center for an Informed Public is taking applications for (2) postdoctoral scholars. Review starts very soon. For more info about these positions, including qualifications & instructions for applying: Read more: lnkd.in/g6q_spek Job posting: lnkd.in/gJ7x5Zwk

TikTok users are not joining Red Note to “stick it to the man,” they are explicitly signaling that they don’t actually give one flying fuck if the platforms extract their data and surveil them. I’m happy to see the organizing around Bluesky but these video based platforms are another beast entirely.

Idk who needs to hear this but handing your data over to the Chinese government to “own” the US government over the TikTok ban isn’t the flex you think it is. This is an opportunity to extricate our social platforms from both oppressive billionaires AND oppressive governments.

Watched the 1957 film ‘Desk Set’ last night and it’s amazing how prescient it was to the current push for AI and AGI and its potential impact on human labor precarity.

The number of times I’ve had to recite the alphabet out loud while adding citations to my paper’s reference section is comical at this point.
