"Everywhere I went in Chicago, there were community members patrolling streets, following government agents, warning victims, and pushing back any way they could — and always, the whistles around their necks, the sign you’re around allies."

I see the Panthers are being invoked. I like to remind people about what the U.S. government and local police forces did to the BPP. This recent book is useful. press.princeton.edu/books/hardco...

New Illustration: "We Beat 'Em Before..."
Taken from a British WW2 poster, the original features a WW1 German soldier at the top. I just swapped it for the Nazi soldier it had at the bottom.

Will absolutely not continue supporting propublica if they go down this path
1/ At bargaining yesterday, @propublica.org management said that they should have 100% discretion to replace workers with AI and would not commit to labeling future AI-generated content.

Time to jettison @firefox.com
Mozilla has a new CEO and he just announced that Firefox will evolve into a modern AI browser. This is a good example of how management doesn’t understand its own user base and why they go out of their way to install Firefox on Windows, Android, iOS and other devices blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/l...

Cory Doctorow : "We need to make tech workers unionized again ... because tech workers that aren't working behind a keyboard, those tech workers, they're peeing in bottles or being injured at 3x the national rate in an Amazon warehouse. That's how tech bosses treat workers they're not afraid of."

for anyone interested, @hammerandhope.bsky.social ran an article on exactly this: "An organized urban wing of the railroad called vigilance committees focused on protecting, supporting, and learning from fugitives. That education went in both directions..."

The Black People Who Fled Slavery Had a Lot to Teach Their Northern Allies
Black-led vigilance committees not only protected and aided fugitives but also learned from the formerly enslaved as they built a movement pedagogy together.

Wild that the U.S. government is run by 4chan guys who think “posting through it” is the best White House comms strategy
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.
The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

I know so many great people who are doing so much. If you are isolated from people who are trying their best, I can understand feeling like no one's doing anything, but really, you just need to find the people who are trying and try with them — or maybe encourage some new folks to try alongside you.

Duolingo announced it was going “AI-first” just over six months ago. Since then its stock is down 64%.
