If I wanted to speed run a dystopian dark age, I would:

- close public libraries
- enshittify the internet to the point of unusability
- end childhood vaccinations
- reserve healthcare for the rich
- cut humanities programs at universities
- pour the nation's wealth into AI companies

ODDLY ENOUGH

First off, my suspension has ended. Got a little harsh with a post a few days ago but I didn’t have my feet on the ground and I’m sorry if I offended anyone. Will try to be more chipper. Knock on wood!

I wrote about performative ignorance last month. It's exhausting.
"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.
White People’s Performative Ignorance Is Exhausting—Opinion
Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.

Allow me to reintroduce myself. I’m Fred Wellman and I’m running for Congress to win next. Join us and let’s take back Missouri.
Here we are in another Republican government shutdown and my Rep is home doing photo ops instead of in D.C. trying to help working Americans. I didn't think I'd have to run to the trumpets again but I am. I'm running for Congress because I'm not done yet and neither are we. youtu.be/OSOAPMl_BSc?...

If the blockchain was real instead of a cokehead thing it would be able to solve this deplatforming problem according to the cokehead blockchain people. But it’s not so it can’t
Identifying public officials isn't "doxing." People have the right to know who is working for their government. Nor, for that matter, is it "radical left-wing terrorism." So it's frustrating to see platforms caving to these bad faith characterizations. www.technologyreview.com/2025/10/06/1...

Back in my day, modems screamed when you connected to the Internet. The screams were a warning.

We didn't listen.
The great thing about the dial-up noise was it really felt like the Internet was trying its hardest for you.

Remarkable: Zohran Mamdani's video about returning to Uganda racked up 4.5 million views on Instagram, 56% among non-followers, per data given to me.

He is forging a new answer to Dems' digital woes. I talked to his advisers in depth about it. Fascinating. 1/

It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!
