AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

My constant refrain expect a kill switch baked into

Every router, infrastructure component
Every EV
Every Drone
Every Vacuum cleaner
Every tractor

unless nations insist of auditable open source software/firmware/drivers.

It's a war for profit and soverignty: voters against oligarchs and fascists.

Wild:

A Norwegian bus company wants to know if their buses could be abused by China in the case of war.

So they drive two buses deep into a limestone mine to isolate them from the internet, and discover a Chinese kill switch.

YouTube Quietly Erased More Than 700 Videos Documenting Israeli Human Rights Violations The tech giant deleted the accounts of three prominent Palestinian human rights groups β€” a capitulation to Trump sanctions.

Trump sanctions multiple human rights organisations, forcing YouTube to delete their accounts, erasing 700 videos documenting Israeli war crimes.

As a youtuber, this news is profoundly troubling for me. I clearly need a plan B.

Thanks to @mogadontrenchcoat.bsky.social for reminding me it's Devil's Night. I'll be watching this absolutely formative classic this evening to celebrate. I like the pretty lights. It can't rain all the time.

Civil Disobedience of Copyright Keeps Science Going Creating and sharing knowledge are defining traits of humankind, yet copyright law has grown so restrictive that it can require acts of civil disobedience to ensure that students and scholars have

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

First Trump administration story in a while that genuinely shocked me:

Hard disagree with the cynicism in that article :).

I am among other things a professional GM and I run games online.

Star Trek Fans -even Republicans who don't know it- almost universally understand and respect Star Trek for being a hope-punk setting about raising up the weak & standing for all.

Purdue student journalists deliver special 'solidarity' newspaper to IU Bloomington campus The special edition blasted across town features columns from IDS and Exponent editors, alongside QR codes to support both student papers.

Solidarity!! Last week, Indiana University fired the director of student media & halted print on the Indiana Daily Student newspaper. Yesterday, Purdue’s student paper printed the banned edition & drove two hours to deliver it. Incredible www.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/l...

if Kash can go back years and fire people for kneeling or displaying a pride flag the absolute least the next Dem admin can do is fire every one of these assholes who are assaulting people on camera
