no kings includes billionaires who think they’re kings

Meta took down the No Kings instagram; TikTok banned the Musk documentary account for supposedly violating its political posting policies. A reminder that platforms are owned by the wealthiest of people, control the means of media distribution, & put their thumbs on the democracy scale as they wish

Brazil just recorded its lowest levels of hunger ever. Now that Lula has fed you, don't let Bolsonaro starve you. Vote Lula (English subtitles)

happy coming out day, i wanted to share a zine i made a while back about being trans. for anyone out there who may need to hear it, i support you and see you for who you are. if you're cis & straight, the best thing you can do is stand up for your queer friends. treat them just like anyone else.

despite everything I generally believe humanity has a good future ahead, history tells us there are moments of conflict but most of it was eras or peace, where nothing happened. it's just that war and suffering we're just turning points for us. call me delusionsal if want but that's what I think.

i challenge you to post one optimistic take or belief today on bluesky this needn’t be toxic positivity, just good ol’ run of the mill optimism/hope in the face of a torrential downpour of doom

look, i’m sorry for injecting some boring optimism into the discourse, someone’s gotta do it!

My optimistic take is that human voices are becoming more important than ever, and that will eventually lead to more blogs and weirder personal websites 💚

I migrated from 1Password to BitWarden, installed Linux on my MacBook, then went for a walk in the forest around the lake with the fam. How is your Labour Day weekend going?

Announcing the new Indieweb is Punk Manifesto… We don’t need major platforms. We have the Web, keyboards, tools, and community. Pass it on. Staple it to a pole. Photocopy it. Put it on your own site. Link to it. Wear it. Oi! https://indiewebispunk.net/

you bake a cake, but you don’t make the flour or create the energy to bake it, and you don’t come up with the idea for a cake from first principles and if you make a cake, it’s perfectly normal to say you made the cake even if the recipe isn’t one you created yourself

i'm sympathetic to the fact that most laypeople don't grasp how advanced/powerful AI has gotten, especially in the realm of software development i think it is more critical than ever for people to learn that the technology works really well, is here now, and we need to chart a new path forward

not sure if anyone noticed this, but Zohran Mamdani’s new PIT crew is specifically hiring for candidates with agentic coding experience — we need more leftists leveraging AI for the public good, so this is encouraging to see!

if you're a progressive or leftist who actually wants to understand the reality of what's happening with AI instead of falling for misinformation and grifters... i highly recommend starting with this video:

This might be one of the best pieces of AI literacy content I’ve seen online so far — it’s long, but very nuanced and well researched… and is coming from another leftist! I wish people would listen to people like Dr. Fatima instead of Ed Zitron.
