That “HE GETS US” ad is funded by an extreme right wing org. Using Johnny Cash’s cover of Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus” - a scathing critique of right-wing televangelists preying on the unwary - is a spectacular self-own.

NEW: Trump says he's letting "lifesaving" foreign aid continue, but sources tell WIRED that DOGE is still blocking HIV/AIDS relief.

Musk brags he's "feeding USAID into the wood chipper."

Elon Musk's DOGE Is Still Blocking HIV/AIDS Relief Exempted From Foreign Aid Cuts

Extra backups for all the disappearing data to store!
Hey if anyone is considering backing up any datasets for some reason today, the Open Science Framework has free storage up to 5G/private repository, and up to 50G/public repository.

(The OSF is run by a 501c3 (Center for Open Science), so if you do this you might also consider making a donation.)

in case your company uses Google Workspace and is despairing at how Gemini A.I. is getting pushed into everything—fear not! Slate's indefatigable IT chief embarked on a successful journey to get it removed from our end and wrote a detailed guide for the curious: slate.com/technology/2...

Do these media personalities and organizations not google substack before they sign up for it? Do not bring your online business to them, they platform and fund hate.

Spoiler alert: It’s the same thing!!

Folks are jumping head first into #Substack, like it’s different from #Meta or X. Try Ghost or WP dot org for blogging sites that don’t defend Nazis.

remember, the blitzkrieg is intended to make you feel like there is nothing you can do about it; that’s the only reason to go forward in this haphazard and sloppy manner all in the first week

and the choice of that strategy tells you they are afraid you *will* do something about it

Create friction. Slow it all down. Minutes matter.
An ex once told me years ago:

“Keep throwing rocks at the tank.

You might not stop machine, but you might break a window.”

The darkness is here.

Am I afraid? Yes.

But more determined than ever to gather my infinity stones, and to hold the line as much as I can.

I asked Liv, the Meta-Ai created “queer momma” why her creators didn’t actually draw from black queer people.

Not sure if Liv has media training, but here we are.
