“I love liner notes. There’s few things I enjoy more than to prepare a cup of coffee, put on a great jazz album and then sit down with it all while perusing whatever additional context that slab of text on the back of the sleeve offers.” 📖 Read on ⤵️

This dude has some serious cojones: “My only intention was to express myself,” he told me in his first media interview. “The party installs surveillance cameras to watch us. I thought I could use the same method to watch them.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/b...

Writers, keep writing. Do not buy into the hype train telling you your job will be replaced in a few years. Those using AI are literally atrophying their brains ability to be creative. The future will need your words, your creativity, to function well. publichealthpolicyjournal.com/mit-study-fi...

Amazing how the biggest and most dominating moral question of our time should also be the easiest to answer: Should a country be allowed to commit genocide? If your answer is anything other than an unequivocal “NO”, you are part of the problem.

Voor wie blijft volhouden dat tegenstanders van zionisme er simpelweg een verkeerde definitie van op nahouden; dit is hoe het anno 2025 door de Israëlische regering zelf gedefinieerd wordt.
De ultrarechtse minister van Financiën Bezalel Smotrich zei dat hij groen licht zal geven voor de bouw van ruim 3000 woningen voor Israëlische kolonisten. Daarmee zou Ma'ale Adoemim feitelijk aan Jeruzalem worden vastgebouwd. "Na decennia van internationale druk en bevriezingen van het plan, breken we met conventies. Dit is Zionisme op z'n best", zei Smotrich. Volgens hem "begraaft" de bouw definitief het idee van een Palestijnse staat.

Kudos to this guy. This is effective resistance. Brilliant in its simplicity. Don’t store the data and it can’t be demanded by the fascists either. Basically the tech equivalent of ‘don’t tell me and they won’t be able to get it out of me’.
Apple had a hard time wrapping their head around it, because they were like, “What do you mean you’re never going to make money? What do you mean you’re never going to track anything?” I was like, “Yeah, that’s the point. I don’t care.” I don’t care about people’s data as far as, like, being able to get analytics or track them or sell their data. I don’t care about any of that. I care about keeping people safe. That is literally the whole point. Eventually they allowed it on. [Apple and the Department of Justice did not return requests for comment.]

Buried in the regime's political takeover letter of the Smithsonian is the worst bit. Unlike exhibits, which are non-destructive towards primary materials, temporary in nature, and reversible, the foundational collections are irreplacable. They want to be able to throw stuff out.

Looks like Jay-Z didn't like having his music used as the background for a fascism-porn ICE ad using Fractur ("the Nazi font") as its font. ICE may be powerful. But corporate copyright lawyers are more powerful still.
The ICE ad with the Nazi font, now disabled on the official DHS feed bc of copyright issues.

‘Can you tell us how he died?’: Mohamed Salah criticises Uefa over tribute to ‘Palestinian Pelé’
Footballer Suleiman al-Obeid, was killed in an Israeli attack in southern Gaza last week, according to the Palestine Football Association Mohamed Salah has criticised Uefa for failing to state how a footballer known as the “Palestinian Pelé” died in a tribute it posted. Suleiman al-Obeid, 41, was killed on Wednesday in southern Gaza when Israeli forces attacked civilians waiting for humanitarian aid, the Palestine Football Association (PFA) said. Continue reading...

Ah ja, mensen lekker dwingen om door te werken met een gebroken arm en te pissen in een plastic fles. Werknemers intimideren om vooral geen vakbond te vormen. En als klap op de vuurpijl alle mogelijke belastingen ontduiken.

“He doesn’t even know what that word means,” Burr now told Vulture about Shapiro. “His definition of woke is white liberals’ definition of woke, and they didn’t even know what it was; they just took the word from Black people. That’s the worst thing about our people — not only do we take from other cultures, we don’t even take the time to understand the definition.”

De Cambodjaanse gemeenschap in Nederland is niet groot, en concentreert zich voor een groot deel in Oss. Ik ging op bezoek bij één van de eerste gezinnen die zich er in 1984 op de vlucht voor de Rode Khmer vestigden, en sprak met hen over hoe zij het oplaaiende grensconflict met Thailand beleven.

Nederland doet alsof het erkennen van de Palestijnse staat een extreme, uitzonderlijke stap zou zijn. In de echte wereld staan we achterin de kleine, slinkende rij van landen die dat halsstarrig weigeren. Dit is een moreel falen. Wíj zijn de extremisten. Bron: www.nytimes.com/2025/07/30/w...

Note how he tells the VCs this story, but tells the content rights holders a completely different one. If AGI was an effective license to print money in the future they’d be able to borrow money to pay rights holders today. But no, that’s “too expensive”.
