I really don't believe that it is possible to enforce freedom.

funny how Gay Hitler, ―a man who spends his life attacking historians while building software to rewrite it― moved to #Argentina thinking he’s gonna die of old age in his sleep.

#antifa Pope Francis was a street priest in Buenos Aires.

the Equipo Argentino de Antropología Forense is legendary for fiding out the crimes paid by USA’s #OperationCondor:

Las Madres de la Plaza de Mayo still won't let us forget.

Thiel, like every pig, will get his albiceleste sunday.

I’m not here to convince LLM boosters to not use LLMs

I’m here to protect myself and other vulnerable people from the damage the boosters are causing with LLMs

no I won’t be nice about this

being nice neither convinces the boosters nor protects anyone

debating the merits of using LLMs only legitimizes the damage being caused

Good article in the Guardian on Nish Kumar. https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2026/may/29/nish-kumar-interview-comedy-angry-humour-nice-guy-tour-live

I thought the first 45 minutes of his "Nish, Don't Kill My Vibe" show was some of the most brilliant, incandescent stand-up I've seen.

‘I should not be allowed to do interviews’: Nish Kumar on courting controversy and clashing with comics

The former Mash Report star’s latest show takes aim at his manosphere-courting, Saudi comedy festival-attending peers. Could he be the angry progressive standup we need right now?

calling me anti-tech because i'm against generative AI feels kinda analogous to calling me anti-sex because i'm against sexual assault.

Whoever decided it was a good idea to use collapsible buttons for FAQs -- thus preventing both Control + F and Control + A from functioning as people browsing the web expect -- I hope that a seagull steals your lunch next time you go to the seaside.

The year is 2026. A cult of transhumanist billionaires has infiltrated every government on the planet. Their TESCREAL religion seeks to merge humanity with AI. The resistance from a ragtag group of transexuals, open source programmers, and the first American Pope consists of humanity's last hope.

Will they stop the cultists before the planet runs out of water? Will the clathrate gun get to them first?

Once thing is certain--you really want to miss the next episode of Oh My God What The Fuck Reality Seriously??.

I think the saddest part of the LLM infection of open-source software development is the loss of trust in each other. Beforehand, if somebody submitted some bad code, it could be assumed it was either a mistake or they weren't well-versed enough with the codebase. Nowadays, any code submitted by an unknown party brings immediate scrutiny and a "guilty until proven innocent" mentality. Its a valid defense mechanism, but I will never forgive the corpos for this.

Happy birthday Louise Michel!

Louise Michel was a 40-year-old schoolteacher when the Paris Commune broke out. She fought in the front lines, was sentenced to life in exile, supported an anti-colonial uprising in New Caledonia, and dedicated her life to anarchist revolution.

She spent her life in struggle against misogyny, gender norms, police, imperialism, a series of different governments, and the institution of the state itself.

You can read about her role in the Paris Commune here:

and her exile in New Caledonia:
