🔴✊ +110,000 in Brussels drew the RED LINE for Gaza.

A genocide is taking place in Gaza fuelled by EU and corporate complicity.

No climate justice without Palestinian liberation.

New from 404 Media: we've obtained a leak from inside Palantir describing Palantir's plan to help ICE find people to deport. Includes peoples' location. Palantir is expecting a backlash, preparing comments for employees to tell their family. Says ICE "mature partner"

As the article (in thread) says, outsize SUVs cost the public purse more in terms of strain on the infrastructure & pollution, and are far more dangerous for pedestrians & cyclists. Yes, we should tax them and their usage heavily. Why on Earth should the rest of us subsidise this obnoxious trend?
Large SUVs are too big for parking spaces and dangerously heavy in crashes - time to bring in weight and size based charges?

Huge day on strike with the #FairCSOs crowd yesterday!

Climate orgs, unions and many more from across the Brussels non-profit world came out in huge numbers to protest the the new Belgian "Arizona" government.

Massive thanks to everyone who came and especially to those who helped organise!

📣 Yesterday, NGO workers joined the national strike in Belgium, marking the first NGO picket in recent years.

All social spending cuts affect us - we're standing against Arizona's social desert! Read the first-hand NGO workers' insights on @brusselstimes.com👇🏾
'Expats are affected too': Non-profit workers join national strike
"Many European NGO workers are non-Belgian and sometimes feel that whatever the Belgian Government does does not concern them. This is incorrect."

It's a bit dead in here, every night. The Daringman, which shut at the end of 2024. It opened during WW2 as the Ballon du Centre. The Brussels region wanted it protected as an example of 'cheap deco' but the Monuments Commission was having none of it.

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity.

TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

There’s a certain kind of person out there who has an easier time imagining AGI than an economic bubble. That person will also readily tell you critics lack imagination and simply don't understand exponentiality.
