Telling a friend about a band: This is This Is Lorelei, Lorelei.

EXCLUSIVE: 404 Media placed a tracking device in a shipment of rare books to see which AI company was buying it, and found an Amazon facility where Amazon scans and destroys books. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. Investigation by @emanuelmaiberg.bsky.social here: www.404media.co/we-tracked-a...

I don't want people surveilled and I don't want cops "randomly" pulling over certain people and shooting them, and no one is ever going to slow down of their own accord because we are a nation of sociopaths, so what then? Just say fuck it I guess.

Almost no one ever in your entire life of riding public transport has the desire or means to kill you but every single driver on the road would splash your guts across the pavement to get to the next red light 30 seconds sooner.

“Trans-driven” god he is just so incredibly angry his daughter disowned him.

not an original thought but it's wild to read so much excellent historical scholarship that relies on newspaper archives and realize historians of the future will be stuck with, uh, whatever this current news landscape is

looks like ken's being a little bitch on twitter

Centrists had ten years of The Most Important Election Of Our Lifetime to take decisive action to save us from fascist implosion and at every turn you insisted you couldn’t do anything—yet. Manipulating the anxiety of our need and fear to collect reluctant Lesser Evil votes. People are done.

Heat waves. Thanks to @climateadam.bsky.social's most recent video, which helped inform this comic and gave me the kick I needed to make it.

Libraries are pretty rad.

The most worrying part of this study: "Older evaluators showed less gender bias than male Gen Z evaluators, who are more likely to use AI themselves. Among Gen Z males, 97% rated James as a “strong” candidate while only 76% rated Emily as “strong,” representing a 21 percentage point gender gap."

"There has never been a time in American history when our country was not mythologizing itself to cover atrocities.... More than any other nation, America is an idea. And that idea is a phantasm, a collective dream, or—more plainly—a fantasy." www.welcometohellworld.com/america-250-...

violence against women (and any gender nonconformity) is so baked into American culture that the whole political sphere is able to pretend that, for all intents and purposes, it doesn’t exist — from Epstein, to the WH, Supreme Court and probably a majority of Congress, to community organizing

underappreciated that the racist and lawless position adopted by 4 justices in the birthright citizenship case a few days ago was considered and rejected by justices in *1898* who were like oh woof that's too racist and lawless even for us ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/birth...

Oh, I like this. Confederate flag images and portrait bonfires, another custom we can appropriate from the British to unify the country around punishing traitors

Oh boy NPR has *retracted* the Samuel Alito retirement story. This is a catastrophic error.

Ford has rehired hundreds of senior engineers after replacing them with AI backfired and has cost the company billions of dollars. AI adoption is blamed for Ford being the most recalled automaker in the U.S. with 51 recalls covering over 11 million vehicles in the first half of 2026 alone.

the feds have done more to harass americans angry over good and pretti’s killings than they have to investigate them

you'd think PBS would've stopped doing this after the republicans stripped all their funding and yet

lol does this article really not mention that Clarence Thomas was in house counsel for Monsanto, the Roundup manufacturer?

Last month two library workers reached out to Public Collectors to ask about making a booklet version of Fobazi Ettarh's essay "Vocational Awe and Librarianship: The Lies We Tell Ourselves" for a Celebration of Life event. We did, and it is now available for all: halfletterpress.com/vocational-a...

I would like to amend my earlier advocacy for reparations to include the need for reparations for this specifically

Someone want to come on the podcast to rant about this?

The idea that LLMs 'hallucinate' is itself a clever invention of the tech industry to disguise actual failures of their systems. Rebranding these serious algorithmic glitches as 'hallucinations' was designed to make the public accept this bullshit by linking it to the vagaries of human psychology.

I wish as a society we didn’t long for power, & instead aimed to be decent people who care for each other and our world. It’s alluring to see all that money, to be sold the sci fi dreams of our childhoods, the escape, the adventure. Only the worst kind of people use our dreams against us.

It shouldn’t be controversial to say that the creation of a “trillionaire” represents a giant and complete failure of public policy and government.

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines

they should be slicing up these people's brains and putting them under a microscope after they die like wrestlers and NFL players man. chronic transphobic encephalopathy

Musk buying twitter, Bezos buying WaPo, Ellison buying CBS—all are less profitable now. But they’re political investments that increase the value of the new owners’ portfolios Wealth concentration makes this possible, and that’s one mechanism by which inequality destroys democracy

If sexual abuse was really considered a terrible thing, the world's richest and most powerful people wouldn't be abusers. The most valued technology wouldn't produce sexual abuse on demand. And allegations of abuse wouldn't be framed as positive depictions of masculinity. Our culture rewards abuse.

lol what an obvious conjob www.nytimes.com/2026/06/08/o...

What if all the points in a basketball game were scored at once but we randomized the unveiling on the scoreboard

I hate to say it, but the colleagues positioning themselves to be pro AI in teaching and curriculum, are probably also positioning themselves to be administrators, and probably aren’t thinking about or don’t care how it will affect teaching, learning, or the careers of those around them.

Pelley and 60 minutes really were the gold standard for Serious Journalism and that they already felt the need to “balance” a story about the murder of innocent civilians by federal goons by implying they deserved it is an indictment of the entire industry

This Korean paper asmr artist that I’ve been following for a while made a TikTok of her healing Van Gogh 🥹 Her account name is paper pepper www.tiktok.com/@paper__pepp...

This is the surefire number one way to tell you're dealing with someone who fucking sucks. Across all fields and the political spectrum. Always criticizing never admitting mistakes. Going through life never letting themselves be the butt of the joke, not even for silly things.

I wrote about the new ALA workers' union and why it matters to all library workers in the U.S., whether you're an ALA member or not. 📚 acrlog.org/2026/06/03/t...
