Too bad the GOP effectively criminalized studying how information moves online and news orgs laid off and demonized all the reporters who covered the burgeoning online accelerationist performative death cults. All of that work was somehow "censorship" that needed to be stopped. Now we're here.

If you have a screenshot of a US politician or leader blaming the left, or declaring some war, or anything before we knew who the shooter was, please post in the comments. We will need to keep these

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history

BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

How is my mobile Internet connection less than 10kbps in 2025!? 3G was better than this. That shitty 1G connection that Cricket used to get when 3G dropped was better than this!

By continuing to provide weapons to Israel — and bolstering the profits of America's military contractors — the U.S. is complicit in the genocide unfolding in Gaza.

There is no moral justification in wreaking vengeance on innocent women, men, and children. www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...
Revealed: Israeli military’s own data indicates civilian death rate of 83% in Gaza war
Figures from classified IDF database listed 8,900 named fighters as dead or probably dead in May, as overall death toll reached 53,000

Modern American fascism will manifest as masked federal thugs taking people to concentration camps viewed through footage on your phone that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one being brutalized and taken away.

Are the rabid Newsom 2028 people bots or are folks really desperate to pick a savior and beat the rest of us into submission?

Most of you haven’t even tried DOING ANYTHING COLLECTIVELY. Just falling over yourselves to push the loudest white man to center stage and THAT’S PART OF HOW WE GOT HERE

Does anybody know good resources for studying Ge'ez that focus on Ge'ez specifically instead of Amharic or Tigrinya?

For any who don't know(which is probably a lot of you because I don't use Bluesky as much as I thought I would have), the posts I share about Gaza are on Instagram (thatonetechnician) and TikTok(bees_of_qatan).

Also, I maintain a list of fundraisers on quentingivens.com/charity

The comments section in a TikTok of a guy petting a lion taught me today that directly converting the acronym "NPC" to Cyrillic letters makes a racial slur in Russian.

The internet is an odd place.

I used to wonder why the Holocaust took so long to stop. Seeing things now, I'm amazed it was stopped at all.

Feeling good about my reading this year. Blew clean past my 2023 book and page totals a month ago, beat last year's page total yesterday, and I'm already halfway to my goal of matching 2021

I think it's very important to bring attention to the fact that in the year 129 CE/AD a small group of Egyptians waived half of their PTO(10 days) in exchange for a payment equal to roughly the cost of two entire houses.
