The advance reader copies of my forthcoming book have arrived and they are beauties! Thanks to @wwnortonlibrary for supporting this investigation into how we can stop culture wars in the U.S. -- by understanding their history, and recognizing psychological weapons before they harm us and our communities. #StoriesAreWeapons drops in early June but you should pre-order now! Imagine how pleasing it will be to have an antidote to culture war this hot presidential race summer. #bookstodon #books

On this day in 2001 Wikipedia was made! The Internet would be a very different place without this encyclopaedia, and it's free for everyone, forever. What's your favourite article?

Incredibly important work by @ZekuZelalem documenting an atrocity in Ethiopia I'd never heard of through #OSINT, meticulous, detauled and horrifying.

Attached: 2 images THREAD: This is a 2021 satellite image showing part of a typical farming village in a rural part of Ethiopia's Oromia region. A few thousand people lived here, tended to the land and cattle, a simple life. In June 2022, it was the site of a horrifying massacre of 300-400 civilians. Armed militants affiliated with either the Ethiopian state, or the rebel Oromo Liberation Army, targeted the ethnic Amhara minority in the area and didn't spare women, children or the elderly. #OSINT

Kinda glad everyone got to see Elon run a social media website before we followed him to Mars.

We call it AI because no one would take us seriously if we called it matrix multiplication seeded with a bunch of initial values we pulled out of our asses and run on as much shitty data as we can get our grubby little paws on.

Unser wunderbarer kleiner, feiner, ganz besonderer Buchladen - der schon immer viel mehr als nur ein Geschäft war - ist seit diesem Jahr eine Genossenschaft, juhuu!

https://die-zeitgenossen.buchhandlung.de/shop/magazine/158554/unsere_buchhandlung.html

Nun bewirbt er sich für die Auszeichnung "Kultur- und Kreativpilot*innen Deutschland".
Ihr könnt vorab mit abstimmen und natürlich auch GenossInnen werden, damit unser besonderer Laden weiterhin der wichtige Anlaufpunkt bleibt der er schon so lange ist.

Agreed. Stop subsidising airlines and give that money to international rail providers instead. Ensure regular, comfortable and fast train networks across Europe and the eco-tourism problem will solve itself.
