I'm not that interesting. I like science, & 🐱🐱. I make computers go beep-boop. Not here to find love. No plans to be an "influencer". I will be surprised if I ever have more than 100 followers.

Every time I see what Hegseth says about religion and war, I'm reminded of this: https://www.americanyawp.com/reader/19-american-empire/mark-twain-the-war-prayer-ca-1904-5/

Just a reminder before going out for #NoKings Day. #Election2026

39 years as a software engineer, and every single gig, large or small, is literally Wallace and Gromit and the f***ing train tracks.

It Can Now Be Plainly Said: Trump Is Planning a November Coup d’État

During the campaign, it was kind of hard to picture the specifics of how Trump might pull such a thing off. Alas, it’s getting less hypothetical by the week.

Sure, zero-follower account created yesterday guy, I will definitely give your provocative and selectively disenfranchising election security proposal all due consideration. But sadly, you will never find this out, because you’re already blocked.

CoreCivic continuing to try their best to kill children at the behest of ICE. Ask your local governments if they use CoreCivic for any of their jails or prisons, and demand they stop if they are. Bankrupt these fucks.

Toddler hospitalized with respiratory failure was returned to ICE detention and denied prescribed medication, lawsuit says

A federal lawsuit says an 18-month-old baby became critically ill in a South Texas immigration detention center, was hospitalized with respiratory failure, then sent back to detention without needed medication.

#PSA: If you are documenting the #ICE operations in the #USA with #video, I am BEGGING you to NOT trust ANY US-based #SocialMedia like #YouTube. There is currently a high risk your uploads will be nuked, shadowbanned or otherwise suppressed, given the recent FISHY #TikTok aquisition.

Backup everything on international servers. Or better: Move ur stuff altogether. Use decentralized tech like #PeerTube. Do it BEFORE the banhammer strikes.

@futurebird Resident here. These aren't really protests as you would think of them. These ghouls are pulling non-white people indiscriminately from cars and businesses, citizen or not. There are regular people (residents, neighbors) following them, blowing whistles to draw attention, and recording video of their actions. This agitates the ghouls, and they are murdering people for it.

Every person of conscience carries a whistle now.
