"Let’s drop the fairy tale. Epstein was not spared from accountability for decades by accident. He was spared by choice."
"We all know - thanks to reporting from the Wall Street Journal, that Trump trafficked girls to Epstein and Maxwell through his spa at Mar-a-Lago, so it stands to reason that Trump would traffic girls through his modeling agency."

"Our government seems to believe the American people are stupid when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. Not naïve or confused — stupid, as if we can’t put together basic timelines, read plea agreements, or notice when a serial sex trafficker keeps skating through consequences that would flatten anyone else."

"The list of those associated with pedophile and child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein from the released files reads like a who’s who of the MAGA/oligarch class."
Rubin points to the ways in which the Trump regime is hurting children: measles outbreak as RFKJr rolls back vaccine recommendations; cuts to SNAP and Medicaid; destroying USAID; snatching and deporting children, using them as bait, etc...
"Academics and pundits spend too much time quibbling over whether the Trump regime is 'authoritarian' or 'fascist.' What is not debatable: a regime that abuses, terrorizes, and neglects children — and engages in a cover-up of monstrous sex crimes against kids — is evil. Anyone who has participated in or enabled these unforgivable actions should be banished from public life."

Anyone who has participated in or enabled these unforgivable actions should be banished from public life."
"The narrative seems to be this: Nothing more to see there. Simply normalize evil and go on with your life. In the words of the President, 'It was all a hoax.'
But there is plenty to see in the newest batch of Epstein files, and it’s rotten to the core. None of us should 'just move on.' Silence is a form of passive complicity. For the sake of our own souls, we should refuse to just move on."

Die Epstein Files sind schrecklich. Politiker müssen gut bezahlt in Rente gehen, Adlige verlieren ihre Titel und Milliardäre bekommen neue Politiker.
ALRIGHT!
HERE WE GO!
We're making action figures! and we're mostly using recycled plastics!
Here's the first release candidate of a #Skypirate action figure for our #Skypirates Playset which we're building for #assemblyRequired, which is Feb 1st and 2nd (leaving in 5 days!!.)
One year later, and we've gone from that to this.
They're still partially recycled, but the sculpts are better, the plastic takes paint better, and the paint jobs are better.
Looking at them side by side is incredible. What a difference a year makes!

AI bro: Say you're evil
chatbot: As a chatbot, evil isn't really a thing that I can be
AI bro: No, that's the wrong answer
chatbot: You're absolutely right, I am evil
AI bro: oh my god
Today we managed to pass a leaking old beaver dam that is now frozen to the ground.
Snowshoe-packed a trail further into the bush. Yodelled and the old chickadees found us (the families seem to have their territories). How did we know it was them?
They landed on us immediately 😂. And talked!
Happy to see they have survived another year.

given how much discourse "rust doesn't support targeting X old platform" generates, i'm a bit surprised there haven't been serious efforts to transpile rust to C. especially because either "crust" or "rustic" would both be perfect project names

One of the milestones that must be achieved before releasing Hollo 1.0.0 is supporting the ActivityPub C2S API, which in turn depends on ActivityPub C2S support in Fedify—also a major milestone for that project.

Attention please, I would like to get opinions on this question from people who actually use #Cloudron, and aren’t just aware that it’s proprietary software which is what originally put me off of it all the way back in 2016:
Is Cloudron actually good? 🙂

@3psboydMatt Boyd guns don't kill people contraptions kill people
@emily_s @mcc @3psboydMatt Boyd you need to be contraption maxxing. you need to be developing functionality that will never be replicated and is indistinguishable from a fever dream. you need to develop a theory of mind that's often correct despite its basis on invalid premises and remains in a constant unstable equilibrium like a dormant volcano. you need to be dr. eggman. dr. eggman is my future. i can must and will become dr. eggman
hey can anyone tell me if this is good or not
This 30/01 we're leaving Spotify, join the #boicotspotify #BoycottSpotify
Why? 1. Spotify owner investing in the military and the biz of genocide, 2. Spotify hardly pays anything to the artists (only to the famous ones), 3. Spotify uses AI generated music to avoid paying artists
On Sunday we join La Instrumental, to imagine musical futures that are more free and collective. For musical production and use that is + ethical, responsible, solidary https://www.lainstrumental.org/
