Relaunching Kyloson: Powering the Future of Work
This Labor Day, as we honor the workers who built our present, we’re relaunching Kyloson to power the future — AI, Linux, security, and the backbone of tomorrow’s enterprises.
kyloson.com
After much soul-searching and contemplation, I made the decision to relaunch Kyloson, LLC with a focus on #AI and secure infrastructure. Check it out BSky fam - kyloson.com/relaunching-....
Always great to hear from you my friend! I hope you're doing well in the new year! 😊⚡

Godspeed simians (and goat)! You're the heroes we need right now.
P.S. - it's a bit surreal to write the alt image tag, "4 monkeys and a goat taking a selfie at the St. Louis arch." 🤣😂

If you haven't heard about the ongoing roving goat and monkeys in the #STL, do yourself a favor and check it out - www.ksdk.com/article/news.... We need some humor right now. My fave? An AI Mashup of the group getting a slice at Imo's while "Country Grammar" plays in the background. 😂
Officials still searching for several monkeys loose in north St. Louis
If you have seen the monkeys, please contact Animal Care and Control by calling 314-657-1500.

3/The last thing anyone needed was a guy who knew where the bodies were buried - metaphorically and literally - spilling his guts and potentially derailing their democracy-wrecking party b4 it got going. Who'd guess sex trafficking was cover for the REAL story, lurking in plain site.

2/Epstein was deeply embedded into the government and big tech right up until his arrest in 2019 - sfstandard.com/2025/11/23/e.... Dollars to donuts, it was THIS that got him killed. Child sex trafficking is table stakes to these guys, but Epstein could have messed with their money.

1/Oh, and btw, turns out funding from the late Jeffrey Epstein probably saved the Bitcoin project from collapse a few years b4 his death - blocknews.com/epstein-link.... Not only that, but Epstein shows up at the nexus of Israel, the US deep state, and Silicon Valley tech firms like Palantir.

6/And finally, this week we had the Trump administration trying to call Renee Good's murder a domestic terror event. It most definitely WAS that, but we all know it wasn't Renee Good who was doing the terrorizing. The time to stand up and speak out is here folks.

5/Antiwar org Code Pink (www.codepink.org) was called a terrorist org by Palantir's Mike Gallagher - www.reddit.com/r/Global_New.... Say what you want about Code Pink, but domestic terrorists? C'mon. If you're my age you remember the surveilled libraries and religious groups of the Iraq era.
From the Global_News_Hub community on Reddit: Palantir's top lobbyist, former representative Mike Gallagher, calls for branding Code Pink as domestic terrorists because they protested him at an AI war...

4/So what can we do about it? We go old school on their asses. Meet in person, create newspapers and books on printing presses, write letters. Think I'm kidding? The Soviet Union b4 it collapsed produced spy info on typewriters so it couldn't be intercepted. Which brings me to my last point.

3/AI enables government and private enterprise to analyze and extract meaning and relationships from huge unconnected datasets. Guys, they've been storing every call, text, and email for *25 years* in preparation for this tech. Their systems have capabilities to watch us that we can barely imagine.

2/If you haven't heard of Palantir, don't worry - they've heard of you. They power the most insidious, evil intersections of technology and government power. Every evil thing you can imagine using AI for? On the drawing board. Meanwhile, Flock Safety builds drones for your local police department.

1/Lots going on in the world rn fam. As if it wasn't enough to watch our country deteriorate, now Bobby's gone. What a way to start a year. Unfortunately, this morning I have something serious and important for everyone to read - open.substack.com/pub/ziggurat.... Guys, you need to read that post.
My final message before I'm on an FBI watchlist: Palantir, Epstein, & The New York Times
ICE brings the hybrid warfare and terror we brought to Gaza back home. It's time to learn where it comes from, how it works, who enables it, and how to fight back.

2/I can't afford the string section, of course. Hell, I'd be lucky enough to find a couple other old guys interested enough to show up for practice. Boy, wouldn't it be fun to make people dance again though... 🤔

1/I'm feeling a strong urge to get a band together and play some music again. Heck, if Libba Cotten can win her first Grammy at 92, maybe there's hope! Possible 1st song: a Mutron-washed version of ELO's "Showdown" - youtu.be/IYhqlOQ1vHY. Replace the funky keys with Jerry's "Estimated Prophet" tone.

Speaking of irreverent comedy, probably my personal favorite is the late great Tim Wilson. Fellow Deadheads, if you've never heard Acid Country, you should listen to it NOW - youtu.be/4-xOtbr2bjE. You can hear the crowd when he says "Grateful Dead", proving we really *are* everywhere 😜

3/A close friend introduced me to them in high school - when this album was still new - and they've been part of my acoustic sets (and sense of humor) ever since. Since we in the US have such an issue with REMEMBERING, make 2026 the year we rediscover, well, everything. The answers are all there...

2/They're still around, and the new stuff is ok, but imho 1991's "Lizard Vision" album is their best. My favorite tune? "Just a Friend", followed closely by "Coors Beer", which could EASILY be about 2026: "...if only what I read in my paper were true, I know that it's bullshit but what can I do..."

You've likely never heard of them, but fans of irreverent comedy music should check out the "famous, fabulous, fearless, and flamboyant, Austin Lounge Lizards!" - open.spotify.com/album/39wW3g...

2/It's a Catch-22. I'd love to see BlueSky be a dominant platform, but I do NOT want it to turn into Xitter. Granted, you can never see all the corners of an app with millions of users, but my little corner and the folks I interact with is the coolest place on the net.

1/Yeah, Ted kinda gave up on BlueSky. He's written articles about the potential of the platform, but he's not wrong in concluding that things have stagnated a bit here. I love BlueSky and the folks here and I don't know how to push it further into the consciousness - or even if we *want* to.

5/The candidates are out there (Lucas Kunce in MO in '24) and there will be more this time. We the people have the power in our hands. If Congress won't pass term limits, let's just force them out after a couple of terms.
