The guardian's US section today - nothing but human rights abuses. I knew this was coming, but I never could've guessed that the US embraced the Gestapo and concentration camps quite so quickly. #terrifying

With US public parks up for sale soon, shall we make a betting pool to see which billionaire buys Yosemite?

"AI is coming, its inevitable" no its not you sniveling weirdo. how are those 3D TVs going. how are NFT markets looking these days. Seen anything cool in the metaverse lately? anyone who says we need to resign to using it, that itll be here whether we like it or not, is a feckless dipshit.

I recently caught someone talking smack about how many people use MusicBrainz, and it made me go check. Just to reassure myself... To my delight, I was reminded that our editors are killing it!! ~700 releases added /day in 2020, up to ~1,800 in 2025: beta.musicbrainz.org/statistics/t... -a

Oh, I get it -- orange turd's tariffs now make sense in another way: It was a reverse stock-pump and dump deal on a global scale. He knew when he was going to reverse and cause the stock market to shoot up. I wonder how much he and his cronies made. We need an orange-turd grift counter, stat!

"strike a balance between expediting rebuilding and public safety". Wait what? So, public safety is actually something that can be balanced against... development contractors? So many pretenses have been dropped in the past year and t real US is now out in plain view.

I have a pretty rare CD. Its only entry on Discogs was from my copy. The only copy on YouTube was from my copy. The only information I had was in the notes, and there was a hidden track. (I share if people want) MusicBrainz had the info. That database is legit. musicbrainz.org/release/8b63...

Apologies in advance for sharing a LinkedIn post but today is my 15th anniversary on the board of the @metabrainz.org Foundation. 2025 is also the 25th anniversary of MusicBrainz and I wanted to write something celebrating open source in music technology. www.linkedin.com/posts/matthe...

With swasticar sales plunging, I wonder: What happens should the company go out of business? Do all the cars get bricked and stop working, like an old tech app abandoned by a dead tech company?

Some resistance is shoring up: wefightback2025.org Sadly, they are about 25 years too late. Who is going to tell them that all three branches of government are run by the baddies? And that government has no emergency override. You can't fight them. Your inaction cost you your democracy.

Another shitty president and people are sharing bits of what the law can and can't do. That's nice! Sadly, utterly useless since the rule of law is now history. From now, the law does whatever it wants. The time to take action would've been... during the Nixon administration.
