  There are an awful lot of big words in the Odyssey… not sure he’ll be able to even finish reading it by then. Maybe he should start with the Arthur version — DW does a pretty good job summarizing…

  @onthemedia this week takes on the the shambling, reanimated corpse of 50s/60s right wing bogeyman of communism. This time, with the last actual communist state — Cuba — as somehow the nexus is a global movement that’s controlling all democrats and DSA members in an attempt overthrow US democracy through every element of progressive history, like the civil rights movement (for starters). https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm/articles/the-red-scare-but-dumber

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@Dhmspector/116986737847788123 The second part of this week’s show details the utterly immoral and unsafe conditions on Trump’s deportation flights. This depravity of all of this is mind boggling and horribly upsetting.

  For most normal people, if our children behaved like any of these people do, we consider ourselves failures and be ashamed. Personally, I’d be so embarrassed I’d go live in a cave. I mean, really… who raised these people?!? https://www.huffpost.com/entry/white-house-reacts-trump-nap-lindsey-graham-funeral_n_6a690f6de4b098352c2fb748

  You know what another word for a “singularity” is? “A black hole.” In this case, a monetary black hole where none of OpenAI’s investors escape without their finances being “spaghettified” and compressed into nothingness. https://www.businessinsider.com/sam-altman-openai-the-singularity-agi-prediction-anthropic-nvidia-2026-7

  These are the words of a psychopath: He wants to steal all the water. All of it "Biological limits are real, but digital potential is infinite. If we starve our data infrastructure of cooling resources just to sustain baseline human comfort, we are actively delaying the birth of a super-intelligence that could solve all of our resource problems in the first place. Sometimes you have to prioritise the intelligence that will save us over the biology that slows us down." — Jeff Bezos, Ju...

  These MAGA snowflakes are hilarious. They are so afraid of and triggered by a competent and still extremely popular (60% approval) ex-president merely speaking in public like every one of his predecessors has done since the birth of the republic. What’s this really about? Well…It’s starting to dawn on them what’s going to happen when Trump declares the 22nd amendment “unconstitutional” and “runs” for a third term… If he can run, Obama could —theoretically — run. https://www.thedailybeast.c...

  @onthemedia has a new series — American Emergency— about how Trump is killing #FEMA by destroying it from within to “prove” to the public that it never worked and both creating and capitalizing on unhinged conspiracy theories that FEMA is at the center of “new world order” conspiracies. As usual, amazing work by the OTM team. https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm/articles/american-emergency-the-movement-to-kill-fema

  Man, I think tech has officially jumped the shark… right into an ocean of kitch. “PCB design: The black PCB board is the main body, paired with metal chains, with a cyberpunk industrial style. Every solder joint and chip is full of hardcore charm.”

  Something, something “free markets”… There are a lot of reasons to be critical of AI companies but the Trump goons can fuck all the way off with this noise… Also, the 1st Amendment and prior fucking restraint have entered the chat. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/04/technology/trump-ai-models.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share
