Some thoughts:

1. The deadline for nominating a person or group for the Nobel Peace Prize is Feb. 1.

2. History professors are qualified nominators.

So important. What they say is not the story. That is never the story. What happened is the story. Write what happened.

Boys for Pele is 30 jaar oud. Ik moest even slikken. Blood roses. Father Lucifer. Die foto op de veranda, Tori in een schommelstoel met een geweer en modder aan haar been. En in het boekje de foto met het biggetje. Klavecimbel. En "give me peace, love, and a hard cock."😄

42. Maar wat was de vraag ook alweer?
“We’ve invented a magic computer. It uses all of the earth’s resources, we’ve spent trillions on it and it’s the sole growth area of the US economy.”

“What does it do?”

“We were hoping you could tell us.”

Fantastisch stuk over AI.
“The collapse of the AI bubble is going to be ugly…AI is the asbestos in the walls of our technological society, stuffed there with wild abandon by a finance sector & tech monopolists run amok.“

Read this article by @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy. Whether you agree with it all or not, it’s important.

Holy shit.

Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.”

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

The most effective way to resist this modern brand of fascism isn't to completely immerse yourself in its propaganda. You're actually helping their message spread. Go and make art or read a book or spend time with offline people. You can't marinate in the horror and emerge unscathed.
