Ride the NYC subway and wait at the platforms and you start to form a new unit of time because of the performers everywhere doing Careless Whisper. And FYI, Q from Herald Square to Canal St is 1 Careless Whisper.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.
It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.
Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.
Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

we are trapped in a banal dystopian satire that, itself, might as well have been created by a.i.
“By removing writing from reporters’ workloads, we’ve effectively freed up an extra workday for them each week.”
A newspaper editor actually said this! @theonion.com is cooked.

A conscientious journalism grad withdraw from a job when she learned the Cleveland Plain Dealer uses AI to write its stories.
Now the editor is castigating her and journalism professors for not being “prepared for the workforce.”
You can’t make this shit up.

ICE has completely broken our social contract.
They manipulate social trust and are creating lasting damage to our most basic social foundations

CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

They talk and act exactly like Nazis in pursuit of the exact same objectives as Nazis using the exact same tactics and rationales as Nazis but it would be wrong to call them Nazis until they grow the little mustache.
White House stands by State Department nominee who complains that "white Americans are increasingly second-class citizens," warns of "white erasure" and says "the Jews love to see themselves as oppressed." @camcgrady.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/u...

Listening to the Vergecast, and it ended on a thought that should be chilling. Larry Ellison is selling Oracle stock to buy Warner Brothers which has ruined everyone who has done it. Oracle is an AI stock and this is what Larry Ellison thinks is the best use of his money.

Update, just got around to picking up the new glasses and so far so good. Final test will be after the sun sets and I see how they work with my astigmatism.
Tech that really has some potential. A kiosk that can do a basic eye exam in 3 minutes, and I got the prescription about 3 minutes later. Though the real test will be how I feel after getting some new glasses. Especially since we already have remote exams.

It is wild getting ads for a cloud storage service bragging about data being stored only in Texas. Given the actions of the Texas GOP, the only places I consider data in more danger are Florida and Kansas.

They literally dragged a minor employee out of a Target as he was wailing that he was a US citizen, roughed him up in their car, and then dropped him off bloodied and bruised in the freezing cold a couple of miles away, so miss us with this.

He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
