I knew this was going to happen, TikTok US being sold to Oracle and others.

This literally means all TikTok data gets sent and processed in the USA, even if you're not in the USA.

If only someone thought of building a better alternative that isn't funded by another US based billionaire like SkyLight is.

If only...

Paul Krugman:
"It has been clear for a long time, to anyone willing to see, that the people running the federal government โ€” Trump, Miller, Noem, Bovino and more โ€” are monsters. It has been equally obvious that ICE and the Border Patrol are now filled with sadistic thugs. Yet many people โ€” almost the entire GOP, everyone serving in the Trump administration, some Democrats, a significant part of the media โ€” were too cowardly to admit the obvious."

This is quite lovely. I remember deathcrash being the first (socially distanced) gig I've seen after Covid restrictions were partially lifted, in a Hackney church.

And I can't help loving a chorus that goes "this is shytown all the way" โค๏ธ

In November 2023 I ordered four Kasa Smart light switches. I intended to install them over the holidays in 2023. Last weekend I installed 3 of the 4 I had purchased. Today I *finally* installed the last one. Why did I wait so long to install them? Not really sure โ€ฆ it was actually super straight forward. Guess I just needed to do the first one in order to finally get them all done. Anyway, peace has been reestablished in my home as everyone can use light switches as intended now ๐Ÿ˜

So, if you're not quite sure who to believe about how the killing of Alex Pretti went down, here is BBC Verify's analysis of the available footage of the confrontation...

And lets be clear: this is the execution of a US citizen by Federal agents....

and in case you wondering, the National Rifle Association is up in arms (pun intended); carrying a legal gun in the US has often be justified as vital to resist agents of an oppressive state.
