Final vote total for the NDAA today which tragically merges our military technology and supply chains with Israel’s. Let’s hope this version fails in the Senate because Section 219 is a betrayal of our sovereignty.
I miss the 1990s internet. It was a library. Now it’s just a giant shopping mall where every store is trying to steal your data and every "person" you meet is actually three bots in a trench coat.
We need to find and guillotine literally every single person responsible for this. I need them gone fucking yesterday. How the fuck do people go about their business when this shit is happening
It turns out Flock Safety Cameras love and demand privacy, but only for themselves and their employees
- Flock business location says you can’t film
- Flock moved locations but they instructed the old building to not give out their location to anyone asking
- Security guard at Flock building says he doesn’t consent to being filmed and he doesn’t want to be “under surveillance”
Here’s where it gets really crazy
- The new flock building is identified but they won’t put their name on the building, or on any of the building signs
- Security won’t confirm Flock is in the building
- No one is allowed to film, no one is even allowed to access any floors in the building
Flock demands extremely privacy, but only for themselves
Americans must be under surveillance but for them, you can’t even film outside an old building…. Amazing….
More US troops have died in Trump’s insane war of aggression against Iran, so of course we’re seeing a bunch of phony bullshit from American warmongers about what a heroic sacrifice these soldiers made in order to justify further escalations.
“Godspeed, heroes. Their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve,” tweeted Secretary of War Pete Hegseth in response to the news that two US troops were killed with one soldier missing after Iranian retaliatory strikes on a US base in Jordan.
But they weren’t “heroes”, and they did not make any “sacrifice”.
A hero is someone who risks danger taking noble action for the benefit of others. A sacrifice is when you give up your life for a higher cause.
This was neither of those things. Those soldiers were killed in response to US airstrikes on civilian infrastructure in a stupid, evil war of aggression waged by a Zionist president to please his billionaire Israeli megadonor. Those US attacks destroyed a desalination plant, cutting off an essential water supply for thousands of Iranian civilians.
They did not die defending the United States. They did not die protecting the American people. They did not die for freedom, for democracy, or for any of the other bullshit reasons you’ll see imperial spinmeisters saying they died for. They died for Israel, for the military-industrial complex, and for US imperial agendas of global domination. And for nothing else.
I said this online and someone tried telling me “They died for their country and Fuck You for pissing on that.”
I told him no, they did not die for their country. The Iranians are dying for their country. The Americans are dying for Israel, for money, and for geostrategic control. Not a single American life in the United States is being protected by the actions of US service members in the middle east. They’re not defending their homeland, they’re attacking people who are defending theirs.
This isn’t worthy of praise, it’s worthy of anger and outrage.
There’s this bizarre, cultish belief among Americans that you have to play along with the idea that every US soldier killed in action died doing something heroic which benefited the American people, even when every reasonably intelligent person knows that’s objectively false. I reject this whole-heartedly. All this does is make it easier for the US military to recruit more soldiers and to manufacture consent for more depraved wars of aggression.
Those soldiers killed in Jordan did not die doing anything noble. They died meaningless, undignified deaths for an immoral and unworthy cause.
Those soldiers weren’t killed by Iran. They were killed by Donald Trump. They were killed by the oligarchs and empire managers whose decisions sent them to die in yet another middle eastern war based on lies, and will never lose a wink’s sleep over it.
Everyone thinking of joining the US military should refrain from doing so, and everyone who is already in the US military should do everything they possibly can to get out. Because there is nothing worse than killing and dying for rich bastards who will never give a fuck about you.
Since 2023, there have been over 20 documented instances of police misusing Flock cameras to stalk romantic interests and rivals.
One Idaho officer tracked his wife's movements over 700 times and, to avoid suspicion, put the word "test" before each search.
An Illinois police chief used a neighboring district's Flock cameras 'hundreds of times' to track six people he knew personally. Three of the victims used to be romantically involved with him.

Yes, AI is bad for the environment, but we also can't overstate how pathetic and embarrassing it is to pretend you wrote a book you didn't write. It's toddler-level delusion on full display from fully grown adults.
One of the most shocking data center developments in the country is families increasingly being pushed to sell their property for data center power lines, under threat of eminent domain.
The FCC signaled it will repeal the cap on ownership of TV stations, abolishing a limit that keeps owners from controlling stations in more than 39% of markets.
This move will allow Nexstar, one of the largest owners of TV stations, to buy rival Tegna in a massive deal.
