Boston-area idealist. He/him. Queer, leftist. Opposing the new fascist regime and building a brighter future is the primary struggle of our time. Together, we can protect our communities. Together, we will overcome!

"Could have"? So, we don't have life on Earth today?

"Might have", is what you're looking for.

I see we're doing "marketplace of ideas" discourse again.

In light of this, I would like to clarify something most people miss: "the marketplace of ideas" is a bullshit concept grounded in misinterpreting John Stuart Mill, or; it is a bullshit concept the Supreme Court pulled from its ass.

Boycott all corporate media and entertainment including sports. Boycott all their advertisers.

Pocket book diplomacy is the only thing they understand.

Genocide, persecution, secret police, concentration camps, naked corruption, demonization of marginalized groups, etc. have all been staples of the USA for over 500 years. History is written by the bootlickers, after all. And the media has always been under the control of the ultra-wealthy.

We all should die on the altar of "innovation", we're told.

AI does not "converse" nor does it "summarize". You are publishing inaccurate things about tech, even though your entire reputation revolves around being tech experts.

Just think about that.

AI naΓ―vity: When we presented a detailed study about the Danish game industry last month, a young audience member asked us why we hadn't just asked ChatGPT? He apparently thought that AIs knew "everything", and didn't see any reason why you would gather new data. That is a problem.

The video streaming sites are cultural ghettos, giving us crumbs of recent and curated movies while excluding most of the most important movies humans have made so far.

I'd love to see columns about the best [insert genre here] to watch, not limited by some corporate platform.

Still holding out hop that Nintendo will eventually remake the 1996 masterpiece, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. But a new mainline Fire Emblem is still exciting!

Whenever I forget why I don't take The Atlantic seriously, I see a single Friedersdorf tweet and it's always a stark reminder why.

Once the AI bubble pops, the VC industry must be dismantled or these cycles will continue.

And if you check which countries outside the US are similarly all-in on AI, you know they're just a few steps behind us on the road to fascist takeover.

Stop regurgitating the lies of neoreactionary Silicon Valley tech bros and stop selling America for parts to the neoreactionary venture capital firms like this. Or resign.

Welp, it’s time to publish this:

Bluesky Moderation has affirmatively dropped the ball with respect to allowing the transgender community on this site to protect itself.

I have a blocklist, titled β€œTransphobic”.

You can’t see it. Bluesky Community hid it.

pretty wild that it so quickly became normalized that immigrants don’t have even basic free speech rights

A screenshot of a social media post (a toot) from the European Commission. The account handle is @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu. The post is dated September 10, 2025, at 16:53 and was posted from the Web.

The text of the post reads:

"Hello @ranx!
Let us be clear: under this proposal, there is no general monitoring of online communications. There will be no such thing as β€œchat control”.

Only material that is clearly child sexual abuse will be searched for and can be detected.

Detection orders can only be issued by judicial or independent administrative authorities at the end of a thorough process to assess necessity and proportionality, balancing all the fundamental rights at stake."

πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΊThe EU Commission seriously claims: "There is no such thing as #ChatControl.”

Their fantasy: A magic, 100% perfect algorithm that only finds CSAM.

The reality: To find anything, you must scan everything.

Stop the mass surveillance lie! #StopScanningMe

The most important thing at this point is to reject political violence. That, as always, is step 1.
