#Instagram CEO: We're fixing the low quality suggestions. But also, we just fixed it. Better content is on the way. Wait, it's here. Do you see it? No? This is our number 1 priority. We'll get to it soon. Honestly, it was never really broken.
Anyone notice my cool chain? Anyway, here's a post about the great replacement theory.

Sometimes I’m amazed at what Meta devs are able to pull off.
Other times - like now - I’m amazed at how they can screw up the most basic of features. Trying to work in their headset with their remote screen software - this menu is immovable. Unless you put your keyboard exactly where Meta engineers do, this software becomes unusable

It's been decades since I heard the Cliff Richard song 'Living Doll'. I never registered this chorus at the time:
"Take a look at her hair, it's real
And if you don't believe what I say, just feel
I'm gonna lock her up in a trunk
So no big hunk
Can steal her away from me."
At some point in recent history, that sentiment must have sounded normal.

On this day in 2021, I wrote this, and I stand by it:
“Let’s make sure that we are using proper language.
Every single person at the Capitol today was there in order to engage in domestic terrorism and an attempted white supremacist insurrectionist coup.
Every single person on the Capitol grounds is a white supremacist terrorist. Every single one.
And let us all be abundantly clear, if these people were not white, they would be dead.”
We ignore the white supremacy of the thing at our peril.

Just a reminder that the US Air Force forced Chobani to change their yogurt formula to not contain any hemp seeds because some military people ate it, and if you’re not a white billionaire guy they’re that strict about something that might have contained something you could potentially have made pot out of but didn’t and in some alternate universe might trip a drug test.

when I worked on a mobile crisis intervention team in the 70s, I used to take folks like this to the ER for psychiatric evaluation… to the Emergency Room, not to the White House.
if this messianic self-image does not put off actual Christians, then I do not know what will… to say “G*d speaks to me” is one thing, to say “I am the New Messiah sent by G*d” is quite another.
