When I worked in UK academia I recall hearing of a Japanese man who was baffled at how Britain had decided to run its universities like firms. “Why? Your universities are excellent and your firms are terrible.”

Note here that Musk is now literally assigning himself new contracts based on the use of his DOGE wrecking crew and the associated micro-bros. this isn't a "conflict of interest". it's just handing yourself federal money www.cnn.com/2025/02/25/b...

Last week, DOGE posted an online “wall of receipts,” celebrating how much it had saved by canceling federal contracts. Now it has deleted all of the 5 biggest “savings” on that original list, after NYT and other outlets pointed out errors. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/u...

Discord has apparently added generative AI "apps" users can use to modify any image posted in any discord server. On by default, no way to disable them, no moderation tools. Fuck discord, support artists (discord sure doesn't).

Over 1000 artists have joined together to protest UK copyright law changes that would let AI train on their work without permission. Their silent album shows what the future of music could be without adequate protection for artists. www.forbes.com/sites/leslie...

I despise every person who has ever told me it's pointless to fight AI because "it's happening with or without you". Nothing is inevitable beyond death. You're not required to lie down and guide the boot onto your own neck.

If AI is "inevitable" why are you having to force updates and push it on people constantly? If AI is "inevitable", why is there no clear, uncontroversial, use case? If AI is "inevitable", why does it need your constant propaganda? Looks like a "pump and dump" bubble to me.

For those following the story of unidentified men violently dragging a protester from a local Idaho GOP meeting, it turns out they were from a private security firm called LEAR Asset Management. But neither the sheriff (who watched it all go down) or the GOP will take responsibility for hiring them.

Remember that O'Donovan once called for "open source" browsers to be banned. He was the minister overseeing the OPW but blamed the cost of the Dail bike shed on cyclists in general. He blamed the Dublin & Monaghan bombings in the IRA. I've eaten more intellectually curious cabbages.

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

Yet another reminder that businesspeople are manifestly unfit for elected office "Give us your minerals or we'll let Russia kill you all" isn't negotiating. It's extortion.

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

I'm cis-het and I don't know what being trans or queer or nonbinary feels like. I mean it: I don't have a fucking clue. AND YET. I support trans and queer people. Just because they are my fellow person. And it's not hard, or "a slippery slope", and it doesn't require any academic deep-dives. 1/4

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

BREAKING — I've confirmed the DOGE staffers at SSA. They are Marko Elez (who was previously fired for racist posts and then reinstated), Ethan Shaotran, Nikhil Rajpal, and Gautier Cole-Killian. This is per Social Security Works, a non-profit working to protect/expand Social Security.
