As much as the tech industry gets in my nerves, I can’t help but find technology and software endlessly fascinating and that’s what always draws me back lol

Forever grateful that I don’t really like the taste of alcohol lol. Makes my life so much easier

I think right now more than ever it’s really important to understand AI deeply. I think it’s more important to understand it than to use it daily. One of the reasons why these companies are floundering over all the cash they burnt in tokens is because not enough people internally understand AI

If you don’t know how they work, just know 3 things about LLMs: 1. They don’t learn 2. They don’t think 3. They don’t understand Here’s a good article that describes in detail what they do: www.0xkato.xyz/how-llms-act...

This is why them Princess Diana trips were so revolutionary to witness, she held them babies and shook them men's hands on live television and had the rest of the world looking like hateful monsters. youtu.be/lvm0V-eo97k?...

been reading into HIV/AIDs pandemic and how they literally used to have queer men in the basements of hospitals because they thought HIV was contagious. it puts a lot into perspective as a young queer person. the online queer discourse is meaningless and the way we fight is disgusting.

So I recently got involved in local politics and this is now something I recommend everyone do. I helped canvas for a state rep I believed in and volunteer on Election Day and it was genuinely such an impactful experience

ICE deported a 5-year-old US citizen to Honduras, where she had never been, after holding her & her mother in a hotel room 80 miles from home for several days and not allowing them access to a lawyer www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Five-year-old deported to Honduras despite being US citizen is latest child victim of Trump crackdown

I don’t care who it is. Mental health issues do not make someone a bigot and it’s not an excuse for dangerous, harmful, or abusive behavior People have psychotic episodes every day without being a bigot, or engaging in sexually inappropriate and/or abusive behaviors

Europeans losing their shit about Trump. Everybody is starting to understand how bad this is. But we're still trying to blame random people instead of agreeing to face the real problem. Unchecked white supremacy.

Over 35% of people didn't bother to vote. They were happy to see Trump win. Of the 64% that bothered, half voted Trump. They were happy to see him win. So pretty much 70% of Americans were happy to see Trump win. That's the vast majority. Uncomfortable facts are no less factual.

I didn’t realize I was autistic until my also autistic friend pointed out that my hyper fixation is Black American history and I will not stop talking about it once I get started. I just thought everybody would be as obsessed with it as me lol

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link. DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS. This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it! Stay frosty, friends.

Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

Are there any techies-turned journalists out there who would be willing to chat with me in dms about your career journey/trajectory?👀👀

Pastors working for ICE Sex workers running mutual aid for immigrants Which one looks more like Jesus???

Finding your people is hard. Especially if you're not sure they even exist. But don't ignore that feeling that you're out of place in your current circles. When you feel accepted and valued for being exactly who you are, those are your people. Keep looking.

Just realized today is January 6th🫩🫩

Where are black people in tech congregating? Is it still Twitter? Bc I can’t stand that app now. Also would love to know of some irl/virtual community groups too

Chicago might be my favorite city in the usa. I just love it here

Okay so im in Chicago this week and I want alllll the recs especially for things to do that are by and for black folks✨✨

It's okay to note that he's the first Asian American mayor of NYC. 🥰

It's a good thing to believe in ideals and fight for them.
