I like to window-watch the parking lot and take bets on how many times people hit "lock" on their key fob.

- one-click-confident girl (walks away while pressing the button, doesn't even look back)
- insecure dude (click click click click click)
- final boss: same guy, but comes running back 2 minutes later to violently test the door handles

Human psychology in a parking lot.

Nazi Germany didn't start with camps.
It started with loyalty tests, enemies within, attacks on the press, and people saying "this won't last."

It was built while people waited for it to get "bad enough" to matter. Waiting was a decision.

If this feels uncomfortably familiar right now, that's not an accident.

L’IA può diventare una dipendenza: segni come perdita di controllo, ricerca ossessiva di rassicurazione e calo di fiducia in sé stessi sono campanelli d’allarme. Per gestirla è utile limitare l’uso a finestre orarie, evitare di delegare il primo pensiero all’IA, e allenarsi a risolvere problemi senza supporto IA.

Anyone who is still making that decision is not worthy of my attention. I do not care what they have to say. They have disqualified themselves utterly.

Last year we had federal agencies get deleted by badly behaved teenagers with no consequences for the illegality of it, but this year nobody will be surprised that the entirety of congress cannot find a way to stop giving money to ICE.

@xgranade Liberals understand the police from a sort of abstract game-theoretic social-contract theory; there are rules which we all implicitly agreed upon when we left the state of nature, yet some (Bad People) will break those rules. Thus we must have referees (Police) who will understand the rules and punish those who transgress. Conservatives understand this role as a sort of divinely-ordained angelic mantle, whereas liberals will sprinkle the phrase "however imperfect" into this description

PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION!

If you are a Canadian citizen or resident, please sign this petition to the federal government.

It requests that gender affirming care be guaranteed for trans youth. This petition can save lives. Please sign it.

https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Sign/e-7005

Spread it as much as you can on your social media. Let's get this baby flying. I want them to get even more signatures than I did for my trans asylum petition three years ago. Please make sure you tell people that all residents of Canada are eligible to sign, but you must have a Canadian address to sign. If you are unhoused, ask somewhere local to you for an address you can use to sign it.

You will have to give an email address to it, which you must use to confirm you signed, or your signature will be invalid.

-=-=-

Boosts not only invited, but crucial to the success of this very, very important social action. I'd love to see a million people sign it. You have my explicit permission to screenshot this post and spread it anywhere you want, on any social media platform you think will have Canadian residents to spread it to.

-=-=-

The most that a petition before has gotten has been about 300,000. I want us to blow right past that, and roll that one up for tokes.

Canadians! Please join your trans neighbours in helping provide relief to trans youth. Speaking as a former trans youth, this would have changed my life completely. We can still do that for our neighbours' children.

Please help make it happen.

Quibi was right. Short-form storytelling has a market. They were just too early. And apparently, there’s a market for AI-written and animated short-stories.

There’s an app Reel Shorts that people pay money to watch slop. And now, TikTok is advertising they too have these types of short stories.

It’s 2026 and there’s a lot of terrible stuff happening right now. You can be one of the people who strives to make things better, or you can spend your energy giving cover to those who are making everything worse.

This is the time to focus on what is actually happening, not to deflect by shifting the focus toward inane arguments over vocabulary or semantics.

The Grok/Musk AI undressing scandal teaches us that Apple and Google's shameful app stores stand for nothing but profit, invalidating one of the 5 arguments they make to retain monopoly power to tax all software. But the other four arguments are bullshit, too. The iceberg of deception is larger than the tip of content moderation:

The second this bill passes a new lot of Epstein Files photos, or some new redacted document, will drop. Anything so long as it looks scandalous.

And the bill *will* pass. Maybe with some bullshit concession that means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

Corporate Dems, which is virtually all of them to be clear, don't give a shit about ICE. They just wish ICE would be a little quieter.

For the curious, today's scraperbot attack on @lwn has run to well over 800,000 unique IP addresses in the last few hours.

We've made some tweaks that are holding it off for now, but it is ongoing and could go bad again at any time.

If you are a real user and are being turned away by the site, could you let me know what your user agent is?

Just put my kid on a flight to St. Paul.

Checked she had her travel stuff:

* Water bottle
* Travel pillow
* Hidden airtag in case feds steal her phone so I can find her
* Charm bracelet I made w/my tel # so that she can throw it to someone in case she is getting grabbed by ICE

So, the 2026 basics

> Now, some preferences can raise eyebrows: if I tell you my favorite book is the Mein Kampf, you have every reason to be perplexed and ask follow-up questions. But if you just assumed, based on that, that I’m a Nazi sympathizer, that would be wrong.

What on earth possesses somebody to write this paragraph! If your favourite book in Mein Kampf then you are absolutely going to be a Nazi sympathiser, if not an outright Nazi.
