ReCAPTCHA has judged you and found you unworthy. For the heinous crime of missing three pixels of a traffic light, your punishment is to click 59 fire hydrants with agonisingly slow load times.

People who say of Nazis “the way you deal with bad ideas is by defeating them in the marketplace of ideas” are offering assumptions that a) Nazi ideas have not already been defeated on the merits, and are still valid and worthy to consider; b) Nazis will promote their ideas in bloodless debate.

I wrote about the genocide in Palestine, and how tech has been silent and complicit.

I can't sleep

I can't sleep. I'm lying in bed every night, and images of Gaza are running through my head. Fathers holding their babies, dead, caked in dust. Bombs dropped on homes [1], on hospitals [2], on schools [3]. Tens of thousands of dead [4] in indiscriminate bombings [5]. Children crying, pulling

Gauguin’s Stirring First-Hand Account of What Actually Happened the Night Van Gogh Cut off His Own Ear

“Between two such beings as he and I, the one a perfect volcano, the other boiling too, inwardly, a sort of struggle was preparing.”

Ishaan Jhaveri (@ishaan_jhavs): "When a 2,000-pound bomb detonates, it creates a blastwave that can harm people up to 3,000 feet away. Our Visual Investigation suggests Israel routinely dropped this bomb in the area south of Wadi Gaza - the place it had repeatedly told civilians in Gaza to move to for safety. https://www.nytimes.com/video/world/100000009208814/israel-gaza-bomb-civilians.html" | nitter

Mirad la prensa mañana, es importante. Va a ser un litmus test fantástico. Cuando veáis una noticia que no use la palabra "agresión", recordad ese medio. Es el que no dirá nada cuando la extrema derecha saque la pistola y se ponga a jugar al tiro al blanco.

Revisad la prensa mañana, es posible que nos vaya la vida en ello.

People who think Threads will peer with every Fediverse node aren't thinking very clearly imho.

They will peer with Disney's node. And the NBA, NFL, all sports basically. No sex at all. Same basic rules as Facebook.

If you think it'll be open like the web, it won't.

Washington Post analysis: “the evidence presented by the Israeli Govt falls short of showing that Hamas had been using Al Shifa as a command and control center”.
