We don't need a kill switch. What we need is accountability. Jail time is appropriate.

I remember watching the MTV VMAs live in 1989 as a teenager. When i saw it was Axl Rose sashaying out for a duet with Tom Petty, every hair on my body stood on end. You have to understand, Axl was my absolute hero. He also had a strict evangelical background and also was filled with rage, which […]

look I get that corporate rebrands are generally hit or miss. Some take some time to get used to. And some look like Barney Gumble broke into your design shop: cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/6BGJ7aKjn… Oh hey... what's up calendly...

*looks at my bowl of light green peppers* *Heavy sigh* To my fellow (AuDHD?) gardeners, how do you wait until vegetables are adequately ripe before picking. Like... HOW???? I don't know if this has anything to do with my neuroatypical-ness but it's the same sensation I experience with picking […]

RE: social.lfx.dev/@openssf/11716277175… A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, I advocated for companies to "be the supply chain". A. I'm glad some companies are doing that B. I'm sad and disappointed that it took CRA compliance to force it. And... C. Better late than never? […]

I've chosen to bite my tongue about a group that I'll call absolutist AI abolitionists - mostly because they're directionally correct: allowing olligarchs to implement their corporate surveillance state with zero accountability has pretty negative affect on society. Not to mention the […]

Latest running stats from last night - the numbers don't show it but I cracked 12' miles! The Fitbit is slightly annoying in that it pads time before I start and after I stop, which you can see from the pace numbers. I know I could do manual start and stops […] [Original post on freeradical.zone]

Stats from my run tracker. They show numbers hovering around 12' per mile for a 4.2 mile run. The 4th mile was recorded at 11:53 - my fastest thus far.

RE: mas.to/@carnage4life/11702156562687… I just have 1 question: where the hell have they been the last 40 years? How are they just now noticing??? I mean... so many of the current problematic elders cut their teeth in the Reagan administration

RE: newsie.social/@TheConversationUS/11… The pretzel logic we engage in to find the "one good republican" is mystifying. Sandra Day O'Connor's legacy is 5-4 in favor of Bush Jr. After which she said "now I can retire" She's just as responsible for the current horseshit […]

Trying to reconcile the cognitive dissonance of being a disaffected American with occasional dreams of leaving while simultaneously cheering on the US men's national team. I think where I've landed is I can cheer on a team that is the best representation of what we want to be while still […]

RE: mas.to/@carnage4life/11680510547961… I hate this so much. It's so very clear that companies are allocating capital to massive AI buildouts - for hardware, software, data center space and any other infrastructure because they're betting it will drive future growth. The humans are […]

Whenever I read about Brexit, I'm reminded that Douglas Adams really had his finger on the pulse of Britain when he summed up the political culture with his satirical planet Krikkit, the residents of which, upon seeing the vast universe for the first time, declared, "it'll have to go"

#Trump could see into the future. 🙄

A post by Trump on X.com from September 2, 2015 that says “The deal with Iran will go down as one of the most incompetent ever made. The U.S. lost on virtually every point. We just don't win anymore!”
