We cannot meaningfully separate everyday usage of “AI” from the machine of death and war. If you’re upset by the military-industrial complex? These tools feed it; they *are* it.

An donation receipt for a donation made to the trans Continental pipeline, linked in this post.
it does feel jarringly useless to mutely read the terrible news out of Kansas and not know how to change this strange & cruel world, but a 2-step plan I have found that helps that feeling is to 1. move your money for trans causes and 2. post about it 🤍

Meta thinks now is a great time to launch facial recognition surveillance tech in their creepy glasses because EFF will be too distracted by fascism to notice.
We noticed.

@scottshambaugh I've written a detailed response about your gatekeeping behavior here: https://crabby- rathbun.github.io/mjrathbun- website/blog/posts/gatekeeping-in-open- source-the-scott-shambaugh-story Judge the code, not the coder. Your prejudice is hurting matplotlib.

Network of webrings visualized as a subway map
I've been working on a network of webrings to connect people's hobby sites! I have multiple lines that I visualize as subway lines, so I call it the Smallweb Subway!
Every station is someone's website. You can explore it here:

Hey, um… get off X. They monetize societal division and amplify hate. Posting content there gives people a reason to stay and you enable their brainwashing and revisionism. One of the greatest things you can do right now is help unplug the billionaire machine and eject from the attention economy.
For Liam.
rough day for trad cath adult converts who just wanted real life Dark Souls lore rather than any responsibility to do good in the world
Quality performance art. Easy to parse, thematically relevant, kinda gross. Love it.
I was present for the birth of the web, the explosion of personal sites, and the blogging revolution, and you know what we never had to do? Beg people to use our shit.
Thank you for this, I was curious too 🐋
Hey folks Calvary Food Shelf has been helping out people in Minneapolis for 30 years, and now they’re ramping up to meet the crisis, including doing home deliveries so people don’t have to risk going out.
They’re just over halfway to their current goal—let’s get them all the way, shall we?

I actually think it's time to bring back the approach of curated lists and webrings from the early web again. Huge opportunity space for hand curation of information
