"Palantir is not just a problem of profiteering from our national healthcare system— it's a fundamental threat to the democratic control of our public infrastructure + the privacy of every citizen. By giving our taxes to this company, we are aiding their operations everywhere." tinyurl.com/3ejuyv89

We can’t trust Palantir with our NHS data
Is this really the company we should be entrusting with our health service’s digital architecture?

Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote:

"The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same."

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

Guess I'll post this again
A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: 
Using Generative AI?
You’re prompting with Hitler!
GenAI is a Fascist Project!
Try using your brain instead
Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

After much research and development I have made an offline version of ChatGPT. Now you can save water and electricity while navel-gazing, and carry one of the world's most powerfully annoying AI chatbots in your pocket.
Photo of a magic 8 ball with a 'goatse' version of the OpenAI logo and the words ChatGPT on it, next to a white box that says "ChatGPT offline version". Inset are photos of the 8-ball responses such as "That's a great question", "You're 1000% right" and "Too many requests try again later" and then another photo from the back of the box of a holographic authenticity sticker that says FAKE.

OpenAI is not making enough money to finance its endless appetite for compute. This is a structural problem: the product OpenAI is providing costs more to produce than it costs to buy. And the difference is being covered with debt. graceblakeley.substack.com/p/what-i-rea...

The Big Ugly Bill was designed to delay the damage until after the 2026 midterms. MAGA Americans - Yam Tits and the GOP are f*cking with you big time. OPEN YOUR EYES!
THE BIG BEAUTIFUL
DELAY
Why You're Not Feeling the Bill - Yet
K
H.R.1 (The "Big Beautiful Bill") was designed to delay the damage until after the 2026 midterms.
Here's what's coming... but not just yet:
CUTS COMING AFTER THE ELECTION:
X Medicaid work rules
Dec. 2026
X Food aid restrictions Late 2026
X Clean energy credits end Mid to late 2026
X Student loan changes Gradually by 2026
X Affordable housing cuts Phased in post-2025
X Rural hospital funding declines Starts 2026
WHY IT'S DELAYED:
• Politicians want your vote before you feel the impact
• The harshest parts are hidden until after ballots are cast
• By then, it's harder to stop.
STAY ALERT. SPREAD THE WORD, KNOW WHAT'S COMING.
Watch what's delayed - not just what's announced.
