We are living in a fucking Black Mirror episode.
Somehow things that would have been a background gag in a Verhoeven movie are now just real
"Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children against deadly childhood diseases. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone." ~ Michael Okuda
El-Sayed: "Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can make himself feel a little more manly by making an AI video ... he's a guy who went back to Florida so he could lick every single boot Donald Trump owns to bet for his endorsement."

Ray Bradbury’s 1950 story, “There Will Come Soft Rains”, starts with a household AI reminding its owners of their appointments. But nobody is listening; they have all been killed in a nuclear war.
I have nights like this. So do most of my mates including @renegadekangaroo.bsky.social, @sparksmew.bsky.social, and @goggles.bsky.social. But we know we're loved and that the feeling will pass. Especially when we'd rather spend time with each other to comfort.

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
There is no version of yourself you could become that would satisfy the people who hate you. So you might as well be who you are.

Appalling cruelty — and all to fund more tax cuts for the rich.
Tomorrow marks the third month since my airline closed down. Hundreds of applications and 20+ interviews late still nothing. So.. at my last job I made rapid, critical decisions that could instantly impact hundreds of people.. but I can't be trusted to look at people's IDs and type on a keyboard?
Everyone involved in bringing these bogus prosecutions must face criminal charges, from the AG down to the line prosecutors at DOJ. If there are no penalties for this behavior, they will never stop.

The last two years it has been their mission to destroy any sort of social program or anything that protects the population (FDA,EPA,NOAA,Dept of Education,Department of Health etc etc) in favor of grifting as much money to the top as they possibly can.
The Trump regime is ending the Medicare part D subsidy program, making prescriptions more expensive for millions of seniors who already can't afford them. For anyone thinking this regime cares about ANYONE, think again.
Two more rejection emails from the interviews I flew to California and Philadelphia for. That's a good way to start off the day.
I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

to all the chucklefucks who said age verification wasnt a big deal, and that censorship is fine and cool, i present: my case for why it is not
The Missouri Attorney General is threatening librarians with arrest over an LGBTQ+ story hour for kids, suggesting that a picture book about gay dinosaur dads is "pornography." The Secretary of State says he'll pull funding if the event happens, citing the state's new age verification law.
