I can't properly describe to anyone under the age of 30 just how cool the Internet was before Amazon, Google, Meta, and Apple turned it all into a walled garden of garbage and commerce.
99 years is the amount of prison time a doctor in Alabama will receive if they perform an abortion.
6 months is the amount of prison time you will receive if you rape an unconscious girl next to a dumpster.
Wake up.
‼️🇪🇺 The EU's new Age Verification app was hacked with little to no effort.
When you set it up, the app asks you to create a PIN. But that PIN isn't actually tied to the identity data it's supposed to protect. An attacker can delete a couple of entries from a file on the phone, restart the app, pick a new PIN, and the app happily hands over the original user's verified identity credentials as if nothing happened.
It gets worse. The app's "too many attempts" lockout is just a counter in a text file. Reset it to 0 and keep guessing. The biometric check (face/fingerprint) is a simple on/off switch in the same file. Flip it to off and the app skips it entirely.
As the USA spends trillions arming Israel and fighting illegal wars for it...
Here's Kentucky, where patients who could not pay their medical bills are abandoned and left out on the street in front of the hospital...
It’s 1989. You are a drunk teenager putting out a cigarette before going to a music club in Chicago. As you enter you hear a new kind of raw music that instantly blows you away. It’s Nirvana. You never heard of them. They are still two years away from their Nevermind breakthrough. It’s a concert of a lifetime. You still tell your kids about it frequently. Unfortunately it wasn’t recorded. Or so you thought. Unbeknown to you a Chicago live music enthusiast, Aadam Jacobs, took his tape recorder to the show and recorded the whole thing (as he has done 10,000 over a quarter century). The tape has been digitally cleaned up and is yours to enjoy online now for free. Make sure to share this with every single member of Gen X you know: https://t.co/aZDOE18yhX
Genova, i have no words what just happened. I saw people dancing from all ages. Everyone smiling and dancing to the beat. Honestly, the whole thing is making me a bit emotional. These are very powerful moments. I’m beyond honored to have been able to play for you today ❤️
Police shot a photographer in the head while he was filming a protest in LA.
Police then lied and claimed he was a fair target because people were "throwing rocks."
Journalists are protected under the law.
He was targeted, and now he's lost an eye.

και για να λέμε του λόγου το αληθές, η ηλικιακή εξακρίβωση δεν θα αφορά μόνο τα παιδιά. είναι το πρώτο βήμα για τον έλεγχο της ανωνυμίας στο διαδίκτυο. αυτός είναι ο βραχυπρόθεσμος στόχος τους
Guess it was always going to happen… Yanis Varoufakis dancing at a conference in Moscow to the viral techno track about himself, made by Russian DJ Sasha Melior.
What the actual fuck is wrong with yall? The idea of keeping brain dead women alive just to use their bodies as incubators is beyond DYSTOPIAN. Women are NOT breeding machines, NOT spare wombs, NOT some biological resource you can harvest once their brain stops working. The fact that anyone in medicine can even say this out loud shows how deeply misogynistic this thinking is. It's dehumanizing, grotesque, and straight out of The Handmaid's Tale. Can all of you just leave us the fuck alone already? Ew.
Ένα από τα σημαντικότερα προβλήματα που αντιμετωπίζω όσο γερνάω είναι ότι αυξάνονται οι άνθρωποι που θέλω να δείρω, ενώ ταυτόχρονα μειώ��ονται οι άνθρωποι που μπορώ πραγματικα να δείρω.
Holy shit!
Trump just admitted the US can’t take care of its people because it’s a military dictatorship:
“We can't take care of daycare. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, and Medicare. We have to take care of one thing: Military.”
Trump right now in his live address: "We're going to hit [Iran] extremely hard over the next 2 to 3 weeks, we're going to bring them back to the stone ages where they belong."
Pure savagery. And textbook genocidal: saying the Iranian people "belong" in the stone ages means he's targeting them as a people, which is the definition of genocidal intent.
That's where letting Gaza happen without consequences gets you...
Also pretty ironical to call others primitive while sounding like a barbarian king on bath salts.
