DOGE is accessing vast troves of data, shutting down gov websites, and promising to replace countless jobs with an "AI-first" strategy.

There's a reason Musk is aiming to automate the government—it's all about concentrating power and exercising control.

The Tim Cook Severance promo is wild because I always felt like the show could be about Apple - a company with such a deep, crazy culture of secrecy that they’d be the first to opt for severed employees in the workforce.

also, my work there was always mysterious and important

Here is Elon Musk saying he will do better than the Nazis, he won’t repeat their mistakes and succeed where the Nazis failed

But sure, it was not a Nazi salute

Cool stickers! Sadly the cost for posting to Germany would be way off I assume.

"We need to start understanding that Elon Musk’s X is a weapon, currently owned by a non-state entity. But from January 20 that changes. At that point it must be understood as information warfare from a hostile nation state."

@carolecadwalla.bsky.social as usually one step ahead of most of us.

Total information collapse

It's started. And it's only going to accelerate from here.

Spannender Link, schau ich mir gerne an! Danke für‘s Teilen!

(Kurz angemerkt: Das Wort „Machtergreifung“ hat diese Partei damals selbst verwendet. Hindenburg hat eine Ernennung zum RK ausgesprochen. Ergriffen wurde da nichts.)

The globe is getting hotter at a faster rate, but this acceleration is occurring unevenly—and not for a good reason.

Megacities such as Mumbai and Cairo are so polluted that they’re warming slower

This surprising effect of pollution should hardly be taken as a good sign.

Poah, ist das übel, was in der FDP gerade abgeht. Ein Glück ist das in „meiner kleinen Kommunalpolitik“ weit weg. Die Parteien gehen anders im Ort miteinander um. Und Bürger wollen in erster Linie Verlässlichkeit. Das scheint man in Berlin gerne zu vergessen.
