What I actually did was allow credentialed press from mainstream outlets sit in my car on the condition that they identify no one but myself, something dozens of observers have done, but it’s fascinating how paranoiac mania over that imagined offense has evolved into vast crimes in 24 hours

Since we're doing the "fascism" debate again, I have to confess I find it baffling how the "not fascist" argue it can only apply to the specific situations of one historical time period, which is not a standard they would ever apply to any other political label ("socialist," "liberal," whatever.)

We don't praise government when it works, so I want to call out the UK's ETA app (I used the Android version): it exceeded every expectation in the best possible way. The whole thing was done in about a minute, and I had an ETA in about two. (Now I can actually get into the UK!)

We always assumed he was trying to insult those heroes. Who knew he was just asking if they were creeps like him…
Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible

so many conversations like this:

"stop being selfish and work with the movement"

"okay, tell me how"

"the movement has decided to exclude you, respect its decision"

"I don't like that, but I'll do my own thing"

"why are you acting unilaterally, disrespecting and criticizing the movement"

Again Will is a left wing civil rights lawyer whose worst sin is stubbornness and whose greatest virtue is also stubbornness. That he has been transformed into a demon in the minds of losers is evidence of how pathetically inadequate their vision of actual wickedness is.
the image of will stancil these people have built in their heads (grand wizard of the mega klan) is at odds with any time I've seen him post (dweeby, harmless)

I've been using Claude Code a lot, but I didn't want to be stuck on a Mac.

So I wrote a tutorial and shared my setup for using Claude Code running on a Mac/PC from an iPhone or iPad with session persistence.

How I Use Claude Code Running on My Mac mini From the iPhone and iPad
Given what we've discussed on AppStories lately, it shouldn't come as a huge surprise that I’ve been using Claude Code on my Mac mini home server a lot. And if you know me, you shouldn't be surprised ...

An Australian-Jordanian developer launched a TikTok clone called UpScrolled that was supposed to be a haven for pro-Palestinian content in the face of shadow bans. It reached 1,000,000 users this week and sits atop App Store rankings. It is now being subsumed by Nazis, with mods unable to keep up.

Nick Fuentes called Alex Pretti a “race traitor” for opposing ICE.

I argue that sentiment is actually widespread on the MAGA right.

My latest for @liberalcurrents.com

After Alex Pretti’s Murder, it’s Clear That MAGA Media Views White Liberals as Race Traitors
MAGA is committed to the belief that the people ICE is pursuing are inherently bad and that therefore opposing ICE is standing with criminals and rapists against the American people.
