Computer Science and trans legend Lynn Conway would have been 88 years old today. Her development of Dynamic Instruction Scheduling in the 1960s and VLSI chip design in the 1970s changed the industry, even as she struggled due to her identity as a trans woman.

It’s not a great deal if you don’t need it. And especially this year, others really need support. So for all of us who have enough, let’s refuse to get sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy and share instead of shop. We don’t need more stuff, we need communities where all our neighbors are safe.

It’s long past time for Speaker Johnson to do his job and swear in Arizona Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva. She won on September 23rd that’s 26 days ago.

For what it’s worth, I was there with everyone just before the attacks by ICE. EVERYONE there was peaceful, having fun, giving out Voodoo Doughnuts and burritos. American flags flew, dinosaurs danced. Santa too. There was no need for this kind of action on folks expressing their 1st amendment rights
At the South Portland ICE facility, after pushing back the crowd to let some vehicles leave, agents gassed the street for approximately 10 minutes solid. S Bancroft was opaque with gas; agents also threw flash grenades and shot pepper bullets.

17 people are dead from US strikes in the Caribbean this month and we still don't really know who they are and so far the president and VP have made jokes about scared fishermen.
Trump brags to military leaders about his strikes on boats: "They don't want go fishing. I don't blame them. There will be no fishing today. It's amazing what strength will do."

Republicans control the White House, Senate, and House. If the government shuts down, that's their failed leadership at work.

Oh man, you just hate to see it 😉 #fpalantir
In good news, Palantir’s stock is plummeting.

Maybe we can speed up the crash of this dystopian company…?

By exposing it and its fascist founder—Peter Thiel—so everyone knows they power ICE, fund genocide, and run the surveillance state…

Palantir stock plummets 20% from highs in longest losing streak since April 2024
Earlier this month, Palantir rocketed to record highs after it posted a first $1 billion-revenue quarter and blew past Wall Street quarterly estimates.

Think Elon Musk is bad?

Peter Thiel is worse.
🚨 Techno-fascist billionaire Peter Thiel is building the surveillance state of Trump’s dreams.

His company Palantir is now working with Trump’s regime to track ALL Americans using AI.

This isn’t sci-fi. It’s happening. And Thiel HATES when you talk about it. So talk about it.

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.
