since the "google is now training gemini on your email contents" thing keeps bumping around here: it's _not happening_. I say this not to defend google but because I know a lot of people that have broken their filtering and made their lives much more annoying from sheer misinformation.
The malwarebytes Google opting-your-emails-into-ai-training thing is not true. The post is based on one bad tweet.
I know anti-tech lamenting is a Bluesky core principle, but please use the same judgement you would for any other clickbait.

american oligarchs uniformly abandoned a lifetime of democratic support because it was easier for them to believe that “based meme” accounts run by czechoslovakian teens were proof of a mass populist movement in service to elon musk than face the hard truth that most people hate their fucking guts
It’s hilarious and revelatory that a bunch of giant MAGA/America First X accounts are actually based in Eastern Europe and Nigeria.

The idea that the political vibes can override scientific consensus in medicine is extremely dangerous. It's why the COVID response was so awful, and why the CDC is now overtaken by anti-vaxxers.
This is very good. Clear, calm, factual, and devastating for proponents of bans on puberty blockers for trans youth.

Puberty blockers: why politicians overriding doctors sets a dangerous precedent
The government’s ban on puberty blockers undermines clinical expertise and targets trans youth with a policy that lacks evidence, consistency and fairness.

rage bait slop about a halal only microwave being from a Morocco based account is a good bit
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Puberty blockers for trans children exist only as a compromise in hopes of convincing the kid not to transition.
The *proper* treatment for a trans child is HRT to ensure they go through their puberty of choice, without delay. Let them change with their peers. Let trans kids grow up happy.

The question has never been "are puberty blockers safe" because the answer is yes. It's never been "do puberty blockers block puberty in a predictable and reversible way" because the answer is, again, yes.
We know these things.
They just don't think trans kids should be allowed to do that

Notice how hostile psyops and regime change attempts always boost right wingers? You never see attempts to weaken a country by installing left wing governments.
It's almost as if right wing ideology corrupts and debases any nation it's allowed into

It wasn’t a failure if you acknowledge that cutting government spending wasn’t the goal
Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*
The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.

Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.
