Don’t believe people who tell you ai can be liberatory or any other misappropriation of movement talk or justice frameworks. Find some people who are preparing to rebuild and cast your lot with them. Then read a bit more. Just keep your wits about you because they are trying to run game.

Seattle. I am climbing through your bedroom window. I am hovering over your supine body. I am your sleep paralysis demon, and I am telling you that you need to go see Noveltease Theatre and Jo Jo Stiletto's production of Much Ado About Nothing. tix.click4tix.com/noveltease

A neon green, pink, and gold poster for Much Ado About Nothing, done in the style of 70s music posters. It implies gay protests, drag discos, and more!

I think it's bad that the Democrats' House leader is having secret chummy meetings with a guy doing a domestic ethnic cleansing operation and funding a genocide abroad, then spending his entire week going on cable news to complain about a lefty Twitch streamer who nobody knows. Sorry for offending.

I _do_ blame feckless Democrat leadership. The GOP have been lying, cheating, manipulative power mongers my entire life. For 50 years, Democrat leaders have played softball to promote "peace" over justice. As a result, we have lost rights and world standing, with more bleeding away every day.

Conversely if everyone "in tech" knows this is kayfabe (don't break the kayfabe), it's a cynical move by an entire professional field to accrue even more power to themselves using participatory make-believe against the informed consent of the rest of the world at large.

What's happening to CBS News is what the tech oligarchs call "parallel" strategy. Buy an existing institution, gut it, and convert it into a right-wing zombie version of itself. They are doing this to media, government, education, biotech, defense tech, etc. Some call it the "Network State."

“Data Center” is such a tame way to say “slop factory”. These huge warehouse complexes aren’t places Spotify stores our music preferences. These are places buying every last GPU so companies can replace customer service workers with chat bots. And our government is paying them billions to do it.

Support for the re-election of Orban’s corrupt, racist and pro-Russian govt in Hungary reveals the true fault lines of our new geopolitics. Putin, Trump and Netanyahu on one side- anti-liberal democracy- and UK, EU and Canada on the other, supporting it. Most likely to be the shape of our next era.
