If religion was deemed the "opium of the masses" of the 19th century, nationalism has become the new religion of the 21st century. A shield to hide under in this race for validation and moral authority for agitators of dubious backgrounds. Great reporting by the folks at @manchestermill.bsky.social

Siendo director del Diario de Navarra, ETA le metió a Uranga 25 balas en el cuerpo y aún le quedó salud para dirigir el diario una década más y morirse con 90 años. Ahora Vito Quiles va por allá a decirles "amigos de los etarras" mientras huye con guardaespaldas de unos chavales que le tiran piedras

It's a journalist's job to ask questions of government officials, no matter which party is in power. That often means respectfully knocking on doors to get answers people deserve to know.

Autocratic and authoritarian governments are fragile in their essence. Perceiving such weak institutions as rigid, powerful and endless is nothing but an act of laziness and cowardice
The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years.
Pinochet was ousted with a referendum.
And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists.
Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

My reaction every single time a pedestrian yells at me because I can’t bike on the road with cars driving at 25 mph and need to take a safer route on the sidewalk
if you are mad at people on bikes because they are biking where you're walking, you are almost certainly actually mad at cars
So expand the lanes! The problem is bikes and pedestrians fighting over like 12% of street space when the vast majority is dedicated to cars

![Travis Kalanick, the founder of Uber who no longer works at the company, appeared on All-In to talk with hosts Jason Calacanis and Chamath Palihapitiya about the future of technology. When the topic turned to AI, Kalanick discussed how he uses xAI’s Grok, which went haywire last week, praising Adolf Hitler and advocating for a second Holocaust against Jews.
“I’ll go down this thread with [Chat]GPT or Grok and I’ll start to get to the edge of what’s known in quantum physics and then I’m doing the equivalent of vibe coding, except it’s vibe physics,” Kalanick explained. “And we’re approaching what’s known. And I’m trying to poke and see if there’s breakthroughs to be had. And I’ve gotten pretty damn close to some interesting breakthroughs just doing that.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qlnirjwff4ibiw3wchmleszo/bafkreiac2szurc5dnw6klquhpjmo7iafg4n6fwmrqyred7jrrph6h6mptq@jpeg)
