It's obvious every occasion is being used to criminalize the Palestine movement, because it's been effective and continues to be effective. But it's especially wry to use as a pretext a terrorist attack by ISIS, which opposes the Palestine movement and national liberation in general

man if only we could get back to the Good FBI as it existed before Trump.
HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:

Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.

The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

A year ago, I took the biggest risk of my professional life. I launched my independent journalism project: Bubble Pop.

And….holy shit. You guys made my dreams come true.

This year has been a roller coaster. I can't wait to see what 2026 brings.

The more I think about it, the more I reckon the 2003 Iraq War began the process that let Trump win. The blatant lies we were told by our governments, the disregard for public opinion and mockery of international law created a rupture that never healed. Trust, consent and cohesion were smashed.🧵 1/3

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

To all the car furries in my life, I offer you this video. See the light! I lived in Victoria for 6 years car-free and it set the bar for what good living feels like. So much bicycling. So cheap and good-feeling. The key is it has to feel safe and fun. Not scary.

Before satellite mega-constellations began taking off in 2019, satellites used to go months without risking a collision in orbit.

Now they have less than a week to take evasive maneuvers, and the window keeps shrinking. My @sciam.bsky.social story below.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.

GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.

But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

10. Within the constraint of residual population growth, we need to find the best ways of reducing our impacts. This is why I propose “private sufficiency, public luxury” and a maximum wealth cap. Not to enable further growth, but to accommodate people who already do and *will* exist.
