Ben Meiselas on Jared and Ivanka's attempt to take over an uninhabited island in Albania: It used to be a closed off military area under the old communist government. It has kind of a very creepy underground tunnel system... No wonder the Epstein class wants to build out on this island.

Pretty odd that this is the headline yet the fact I spent the majority of the speech talking about turning anger into hope and positive solutions which is pushed into the article instead. It's almost like there's an agenda here....

We (404 Media) sued ICE because it failed to release public documents about its spyware. Now some docs are coming out but they're massively redacted. We are continuing to fight in court & are hopeful we'll get more: www.404media.co/we-sued-ice-...

Billionaires shouldn't exist, but I do get tremendous enjoyment imagining how to spend a vast, multi-billion dollar fortune. Artist grants. Funding progressive candidates. Green energy. Scholarships. Start my own university. Start my own newspaper. Eliminate some disease. Buy the Star Trek franchise

“The most wealthy and powerful tech CEOs are still staying silent as ICE floods America’s streets, but now some researchers and engineers working for them have chosen to break rank.” Great @laurengoode.bsky.social story:

Tech Workers Are Condemning ICE Even as Their CEOs Stay Quiet
The killing of George Floyd in 2020 prompted a wave of statements from tech companies and CEOs. Today, pushback against ICE is largely coming from employees, not executives.

Modern career advice: Just follow your passion. And be constantly networking. And have a side hustle. And another. And have experience. And be confident. And show humility. And read voraciously. And build your brand. And take time for yourself. And don’t ever use an em dash.

Hot takes from a podcast: "AI allows anyone to build complex apps with no code" You say complex, I say cookie cutter. "AI is evolving like a new, uncontrollable species" A species born of reddit quips and parroted conspiracies. "AGI is just around the corner." There's always another corner.

The thing about depression is sometimes you can wake up in the morning and not feel like you're awake. The origin of these waves isn't always apparent. There might be a reason buried deep beneath the surface, but in the moment, survival takes precedence. The 'why' can wait.
