Made a conscious decision to focus on AI/bigtech in early 2025 and I'm glad I did

It's a systemic attack on both the means of climate action (evidence-based facts, the written / spoken word, visual communication) and the ends (trying to stop fossil fuel use). I think it's starting to sink in, now

163 years ago in Mankato, 38 Dakota men were hung in the largest mass execution in our nation’s history.

I’m grateful to the riders who continue to remind us the importance of fighting for accountability and healing for the Dakota people.

Just a reminder that in 1989, the BBC was still soft-soaping straight-up holocaust-denying Nazis. But she was terribly, terribly posh and had a title, so listen up, peasants.

Eating less meat is a really easy way to do your bit to help mitigate the effects of climate change and other harms we do to the planet. You don’t have to go entirely meat free and it’ll be cheaper for you and help you get laid more. Have shared some of my favourite veggie / vegan recipes here:

There’s an old folks horror film in this…
The comments on this are all about how sweet it is and I feel insane. Using AI to make fake memories of your grandma with dementia and telling her they happened and then filming her reaction

I don't know if you heard that Jimmy Kimmel was invited to give the "Alternative Christmas Message" to run opposite the one from King Charles. This is it, and I, personally, got a kick out of his last line.

even beyond being camera-ready I know a few women who hate going on video podcasts because it ups the harassment by like 10x
will also add - yes, this is my personal crusade - that turning podcasts into videos implicitly asks women to once again make more effort than men, as the bar for "camera-ready" for one gender is obviously higher than for the other
‘Painful to hear!’ How podcasts’ rush to video is turning them into dreadful listens

One of my favorite presents ever—my dad found and framed this pic of my mother @sunminkimes.bsky.social at a Seattle courthouse after she passed her US citizenship test in 1981. Like so many of the people who come here to start a new life, she is the best of us—the bravest, strongest person I know.
