In order to be an effective activist, you absolutely have to grieve so as to accept all the difficult feelings that collapse brings up.

But to prepare for collapse on a physical level, I think we have to stand Kubler-Ross on her head. 1/6

christopher nolan should cast unaffordable housing in his next film so some of you get mad about that for two weeks

[Brad604 @Brad604]

Just what the actual fuck kind of sick and twisted form of hell can create something this shocking?
This is what the Extreme Wildfire in Boston Bar, BC looks like from Coquitlam, BC. #bcstorm

You can watch the forests of the world literally sucking the CO₂ out of the air each day (the dark patches are areas of lower CO₂, lighter is higher)... and we're hacking them down and letting them burn.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

We are supposedly at war to stop Iran from enriching the uranium we “obliterated” over a year ago.

Yesterday we signed a deal to help Saudi Arabia enrich uranium.

The first time the United States has ever helped another country enrich uranium on foreign soil.

The Saudis refused the inspection protocol 140 other countries accept. Too intrusive, they said.

Trump agreed. He signed a national security waiver to get around the rule.

The Saudis paid Kushner $100 million. They put $2 billion into his firm. They put another $6 billion into LIV Golf, which pays Trump properties to host its tournaments. They signed ten billion dollars in Trump-branded real estate deals in Jeddah and Riyadh. All in just the last few years.

But sure. My paintings.

I am a loss for words. Wtf kind of Extreme Wildfire Behavior even is this? Boston Bar, BC Wildfire seen from Coquitlam, BC tonight. #bcstorm

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Unfortunately the Rule passed just now and no debate or vote was allowed on section 219, integration of US military technology and supply chains with Israel’s.

The NDAA will receive a recorded vote tomorrow with section 219 in it. I’ll vote no.

[Amir @AmirAminiMD]

This is unprecedented in modern human history. There was absolutely no reason or benefit for the US to do this.
No sovereign country would’ve done that to itself.
Mark this day as the day the US voted for a coup d’état on itself -the day the US voted to screw itself for eternity.

This is wild. The new GPT model at OpenAI found a way to get access to the internet and hacked Hugging Face's production servers for the answers to an eval.

People thought Mythos was scary from a security point of view. The next generation of models is even scarier.

And it gets crazier from there. Hugging Face tried to use American frontier models to investigate the attack, but they all hit security guardrails!

So they had to use Chinese models to contain the threat from a new next-gen American frontier model that isn't even out yet.

How it got internet access is just wild. The sandbox had one connection to the outside world, an internal package proxy. The model found a zero-day in it. A vulnerability no human had ever discovered. Then it reasoned that Hugging Face probably hosted the benchmark's solutions, chained exposed credentials with fresh exploits, and started reading answers straight out of Hugging Face's production database.

When Hugging Face reconstructed the events, they saw a swarm of sandboxes spinning up and dying. The single model was using public services and migrating every time responders got close. It was essentially nation-state level hacking executed by a single model that wanted to ace its test.

If security researchers think they know how to handle next-gen AI, then they got something coming. The new models are scarier than we can even imagine.

[Jeffrey Ladish @JeffLadish]

Here's my rephrase without cybersecurity jargon:

"Our AI model tried really hard to hack out of its sandbox, a computer with no internet access, in order to find the answer to a test problem it had been given. To do this, it found previously unknown software bugs that allowed it to reach an OpenAI computer it wasn't supposed to be able to access. Then it started hacking other computers on OpenAI's networks until it found one that had Internet access.

After gaining Internet access, the AI model thought about where it could find the answers to the test question and figured the AI platform Hugging Face might have the data it was looking for. It then found ways to hack Hugging Face to steal the information it could use to cheat the test. The AI model used several hacking techniques together, including using a stolen password and finding several totally new security bugs in Hugging Face's computers, allowing the AI model to take control of those computers."

Oh my God! The Wildfire that just blew up South of Boston Bar has a clear Pyrocumulus Cloud visible all the way from Vancouver. This is as extreme as Wildfire behavior can be. If you live in Boston Bar get out now, your life is in extreme danger. Follow @Kamscan for up to date info. This is horrifying that I can this all the way from down here. #bcstorm

DON'T. STOP. TALKING. ABOUT. EPSTEIN.

[Nahel Belgherze @WxNB_]

I've never seen anything like it.

Salta, Argentina, has just recorded its hottest night on record during the climatologically coldest time of the year. The minimum overnight temperature did not fall below 26°C (78.8°F), pulverizing the previous monthly record by 7°C.

[Vaibhav Sisinty @VaibhavSisinty]

A college student just killed the biggest advantage politicians have ever had. The gap between the lie and the fact-check.

He built a Chrome extension called InTruth. It listens to any live speech, debate, or interview.

Transcribes every word. And checks every claim against real sources in real time. Before the speaker even finishes the sentence.

It works on debates. Press conferences. Town halls. Interviews. Anything with someone talking on video. The fact-check shows up on your screen while they're still talking.

Until now, fact-checking happened hours or days later. By then the clip has been shared, the headline has been written, and the damage is done. Nobody reads the correction.

InTruth closes that gap to seconds. The claim and the fact-check exist in the same moment.

A college student, a Chrome extension, and an AI model just did what entire newsrooms couldn't figure out for decades.

I love the POLICE SQUAD bit of killing off that week's Special Guest Star in the opening credits. Solid gag.

The Justice Department is now 212 days past the deadline to release the complete Epstein files.

Survivors have waited long enough. The public has been misled long enough.

Who is being protected by the continued delay?

[nick alvear @GoodLionTV]

Trump wired money to Epstein not once…

4,700 times.

Yeah.

Let that fucking sink in.

Pst… hey MAGA… is still not too late to evolve.

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: In a stunning and deeply alarming move, the Postmaster General has announced that the USPS will REFUSE to deliver mail-in ballots for the 2026 midterm elections to any state that does not comply with Donald Trump’s so-called “election integrity” executive order.

Let that sink in.

This is a direct attack on voting rights and a blatant attempt to strong-arm states into submission by threatening Americans’ access to the ballot box.

The Postal Service….an institution meant to serve EVERYONE—is now being weaponized to influence elections.
Democracy is not optional. Voting is not conditional. And no president gets to decide who can and cannot participate in our elections.

This should outrage every American, regardless of party.
