in 2017 a popular twitter game was to type a partial phrase then see what your phone auto-completes it with.

this proved so popular that it is now the only business model in the US.

honestly, Mozilla is a lost cause. Count down to them switching to the chromium engine to save money on engineering staff

I’ve been asked on TV hits and interviews lately to explain why decentralized social media is better, especially re: Mastodon.

How would you explain the benefits of a platform like Mastodon and the fediverse to someone in just a few sentences? How would you make the argument that platforms like Mastodon allow for more free expression than big tech controlled apps?

Would love to hear people’s thoughts! Trying to make my arguments most effective

Much love to Alex Pretti and Renee Good—but remember—ICE has killed 9 people in 2026. You know the names of the 2 white people they've killed.

ICE has also killed a Black man named Keith Porter, a Cambodian named Parady La, and five Latinos named Heber Sanchaz Domínguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos.

ICE is on pace to kill more than 100 people this year. Abolish ICE. Impeach Noem. Prosecute those who committed these crimes.

British authorities have revoked the visa of Egyptian student Osama Ghanem, who studies at King’s College London, putting him at risk of deportation after participating in student protests supporting Palestinians on campus.

The university stated that the decision was due to administrative violations and breaches of campus policies, while Ghanem and his legal team insist that no criminal charges have been filed against him and that his actions were part of lawful political activity.

The UK Home Office has given Ghanem a deadline to leave the country, raising concerns about his deportation to Egypt, where he says he could face security risks. The case has sparked widespread debate over freedom of expression and the targeting of students involved in pro-Gaza protests.
