It remains an enduring regulatory failure that someone was allowed to put on the road deceptively marketed "Autopilot" and "Full Self-Driving" vehicles that are so cheaply made they don't include industry-standard range sensors, just cheap cameras feeding a failure-prone AI.

Man, seeing americans all around, esp. liberals not knowing what to do beyond voting is just so depressing. Their empire is dying, the new global dynamic is moving on without them, people are starting to disappear and their only hope of opposition just voted for what is essentially an enabling act.

I unironically use my local library a lot. Ebooks, audio books, physical books, the seed exchange, the meeting spaces?? Passport services?? Citizenship and English classes? I grew up in the teen hangout area as a housing insecure youth with a bad parent. Libraries are important, I'm pissed

They can't help themselves from repeating the exact narratives that the fascists use to attack academia. It's not about the actual policies for the people at the Times but rather the tactics they find distasteful. They want to be polite fascists.

I'm a broken record on this so I'll just say again that you should take every opportunity to [if you can] gather with other people who are trying to do constructive things in the world. Attend the zine fairs, the craft circles, the workshop sessions, food distros, people's assemblies, all of it.

after decades of service to the department of education my mom was purged and is not allowed in the building - thus, a friend who wasnt fired (for now) is going in to get the baby pictures of me and my sister from her office. the cruelty is the point.

A teacher in Idaho has been told to remove posters reading "Everyone is welcome here" - specifically because it features different skin tones. As I wrote last week, this is a global political movement that has explicitly set the goal of eradicating the very concept of equality.

Chuck Schumer selling us all out will be the last straw for a lot of people. And they need to be organized into organizations and into a project that will outlive the Democratic Party.

With Musk now engaging publicly in Holocaust denial, we should anticipate people and states coming to the conclusion that his businesses can no longer be allowed to operate.

the tesla protest might objectively be among the most successful in history already just in terms of immediate response, if you consider they forced the world’s most powerful person & its most wealthy to fully degrade themselves like used car salesmen on live TV while the whole world watched agog.

It turns out the VA actually does have a lot of wasteful spending in it--coming from sweetheart contracts Trump oversaw in his first term. Naturally, DOGE is totally uninterested in that: prospect.org/health/2025-...

DOGE’s shakedown operation is different from standard private-equity raids in one respect: Most PE mercenaries speak in bland business-school pabulum; they don’t brandish chain saws at public gatherings.

I think instead of making weird arguments about what owning a Tesla ⋆･⋆･~symbolizes~⋆･⋆･ you can just say "hey let's all work together to financially harm Elon Musk" You can actually use boycotts to inflict economic consequences! Political action doesn't have to be about Making A Statement

A new study revealed the presence of microplastics – tiny fragments of degraded plastic – in human brain tissue. While previous research has identified microplastics in the liver, kidneys, and placenta, this suggests that the brain may be especially vulnerable to these tiny synthetic particles.
