what I find so interesting about AI meeting tools is that companies don't seem to mind meetings with sometimes sensitive company data just being recorded by random startups

Wes Streeting the guy everyone hates from left to right with a 528 majority
danielsohege.bsky.social Dan Sohege @danielsohege.bsky.social · 21d
I'd be quite happy to see Starmer go, but when you have Streeting and Mahmood being presented as the most viable alternatives it doesn't exactly bode well for the future. Seems guaranteed that the attacks on marginalised communities we have seen already will be ramped up.

Farewell then Tim Davie. Under his watch the BBC whitewashed genocide, had the BBC News website resembling a “migrant crime” X account, boosted trans hate and the right wing STILL hate him. Quite an achievement

This is without a shadow of doubt one of the largest crises facing humanity today

You cannot separate the current nightmare we now inhabit from the collapse/crisis in how rich, powerful middle-aged men perceive masculinity, especially their own insecurities.

I’m sorry, but a goofy looking guy who grew up a privileged son of a pediatrician and has a phd in social theory from the university of Goethe and started in tech by investing an inheritance left to him by his grandfather talking about being a “dude” is very, very funny to me.

my ideal response to AI and crypto is a lot closer to an air strike than a bailout

“It’s not that I’m for austerity, it’s just that I’m against bailing out AI, crypto, private assets/university endowments, and I’m fine with canceled Thanksgiving flights and missed paychecks as long as Republicans take the blame for it.”

underneath all the doom and hideous stuff happening at the top of our country is a more inspiring story: regular Americans are not buying all this crap. and they're still willing to call the government out on it.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Meghan Blanco, an attorney who represented Mojica, said it was significant that jurors did not believe the statements of such a senior official. “These jurors had the opportunity to listen firsthand to the CBP officer overseeing enforcement nationally and could not have found his testimony to be credible,” said Blanco, a former federal prosecutor. “It is a bad sign for the federal government. They are doing everything they can to try to legitimize their prosecutions, and thank God the jury and the public are seeing right through it.”

Protest needs to be disruptive. The Basque people showed us today: There is no normal race possible here as long as a team that is used by its owner to sportswash a genocide is competing. Since no riders were harmed, I am in full solidarity with the protesters

SHOCKING: New figures from a CLASSIFIED Israeli intellegence database show FIVE out of SIX Palestinians killed by the IDF have been CIVILLIANS.

Why is the government selling weapons to a government targeting INNOCENT people?
