The n-bomb: free speech

cis: hate speech

Makes sense if you're fucking stupid. Stinky needs to fuck all the way off forever.

@jonakin81 @itsdeaann He literally had the highest viewership in that time slot, you reality-deprived troglodyte.

@girldrawsghosts Didn't care for them at the time and thought they were too much of a departure from what the Burton movies set as the visual tone for Batman

In retrospect, they look more like comic books and have a more distinct visual identity than so many modern movies with muddy color grad.

Maybe don't participate in an insurrection, you ignorant fuckstumble.

We lost everything over J6.

My husband, Jay Johnston, is an actor and comedian with a career spanning over three decades. A lifetime of work in the entertainment industry disappeared overnight, replaced with a campaign designed to banish us from society completely.

Networks and studios publicly blacklisted him before any charges or arrest. He was fired from Bob’s Burgers and several other ongoing projects. Theaters around Los Angeles put messages up on their marquees. Social media filled up with thousands of death threats and hateful messages. Friends disappeared. We were de-banked. Everything we ever worked for was gone. He went from working in Hollywood for decades to doing handyman jobs just to survive.

Federal agents raided our home at dawn. They dragged us out of bed in our underwear at gunpoint and forced him to kneel in the dirt while the entire neighborhood watched.

The government and media worked together to destroy us. I lost my career even though I wasn’t there that day. Our daughter, who was only 11 and has autism, was kicked out of her special needs programs. School administrators denied us. Other parents boycotted us and wouldn’t let their kids near her. She was placed on the Quiet Skies terrorist watchlist and subjected to repeated invasive searches at the airport. The sensory overload was so bad we couldn’t take her to visit her grandfather while he was going through cancer treatment.

Our story is not unique. Hundreds of other families went through similar nightmares. Some lost their homes, businesses, marriages, and children. Military benefits gone. Fathers spent years in prison. Many were in solitary confinement, denied medical care and religious services, missing funerals and family milestones. The stress destroyed their health. Some J6ers even took their own lives.

It’s time for restitution. Every ruined life, every traumatized child, and every stolen year demands full accountability and fair compensation. The amounts must reflect the true, permanent damage done - lost careers that spanned decades, destroyed futures, and irreplaceable family time - so victims are made whole, not given token settlements.

@is_that_gabe Aww that's fair. *Hugs if you want them*

@girldrawsghosts Pretty much how it was from Jedi to Phantom Menace, and it was kinda fun. Some good stuff, some bad, and some awful.

On May 7th, Governor Kathy Hochul announced that New York's Fiscal Year 2027 budget will become the first law in the United States to mandate surveillance software inside every 3D printer sold within the state.

It will make it a Class E felony to possess or share a 3D-printable file capable of producing a firearm component. Every printer sold in New York must ship with print-blocking algorithms that scan each job in real time and refuse to execute anything the algorithm flags.

The sales pitch is "ghost guns." The mechanism is a permission gate inside a machine you paid for.

Pilot tests of the proposed algorithm by an open-firmware team triggered the block on 17% of non-weapon prints. Brackets that resemble triggers. Cylinders that resemble barrels. A model train coupling. A bottle opener. The algorithm cannot tell. It will refuse the print and log the attempt to whatever server the manufacturer is required to maintain.

The same arithmetic the printing-press licensors used in 1660. The same arithmetic the Stationers' Company used to brand a printer's son for distributing tracts the Crown had not approved. The same arithmetic the early DRM crowd used to make a DVD ripper a federal criminal in 1998.

A tool you bought, in a room you own, with electricity you paid for, becomes a deputy of the state at the moment of purchase and remains one for the lifetime of the device.

Anything that takes a digital design file and outputs a physical object is now within the reach of a state that has declared it owns the question of which physical objects you are permitted to bring into existence inside your own house.

The fence has spent forty years moving inward. Around the song first. Around the page. Around the cipher. Around the camera roll. Now, finally, around the workbench. The state has run out of digital territory to enclose and has started enclosing the atoms.

The maker who prints a bracket for a broken washing machine tonight commits the same act, technically, that the law is written to stop. The algorithm will not know the difference. It is not designed to know the difference. It is designed to fail closed, to refuse first and let the human appeal upward through whatever bureaucratic channel the manufacturer designs, if any, on whatever timeline the manufacturer chooses, with whatever paper trail attaches to the request. Permission to print, denied. Submit a ticket. Wait.

Unfortunately for New York, and fortunately for us, the firmware on every consumer 3D printer is open or near-open. All of them forkable, all of them flashable, all of them already installed on millions of machines outside the reach of any future New York compliance certificate.

The CAD files at issue are mathematical descriptions of geometry that will be mirrored on a thousand drives in a thousand jurisdictions before the ink on the bill is dry. The state cannot bind geometry. It can only bind the people who agree to be bound.

Forty years from now nobody will remember the ghost gun argument. They will remember the year a state government decided that the physical output of a private machine was the state's business at the point of manufacture.

@Drewbaeboy I would; people are not kinks.

[spook 🏳️‍🌈 @spook27]

@Ash_Lee_IRL Sure!

[spook 🏳️‍🌈 @spook27]

@Drewbaeboy I would, especially if you're fun to hang out with and interesting to talk to.

Dang, big chunks of my childhood there. Quite the career.

I didn't even know this washed-up never-was still existed. Thought the GOP put her back in her box when she failed to move the needle of McCain.

Don’t comply.

This time, just don’t.

@msdoedevil Sure as hell isn't any better. Also, I can ignore his speeches, I'm stuck listening to these demented old bats for 40h/week.
