Stay away from the U.S. and its federal thugs. Do not come here for FIFA. Do not come here for the Olympics. Do not come here at all if you value your life and liberty.

You might think it is meaningless. For me, that's pure #hope, the demonstration that the human spirit cannot be crushed and always moves towards #creativity and #community.

Mozilla wants your input. Here's mine:
Mozilla should be doing two things and two things only:
1: Building THE reference implementation web browser, and
2: Being a jugular-snapping attack dog on standards committees.
3: There is no 3.
Mozilla should have NOTHING to do with AI. Nobody wants it. Stop forcing AI into every corner of every project because your VC-brained management have completely lost the plot.
@barbapiccola woot!
@barbapiccola nice! We crossed to Lucaya (Freeport), arriving yesterday. Hoping to squeeze further south between this active weather pattern!

CONFIRMED:
The protesters are absolutely right. David Easterwood is a pastor at Cities Church in #StPaul, and he is also shown here in an October 24, 2025 video on C-SPAN speaking at a press conference with Kristi Noem. He is Acting Director of the Saint Paul ICE field office located in Fort Snelling, MN.
Cities Church is located at:
1524 Summit Ave, St. Paul, MN 55105

This is WILD.
Don Lemon is in #Minneapolis doing live stream reporting on the ground, and about an hour and a half ago, he captured a Sunday church service being interrupted by protesters who were claiming that one of the pastors is in charge of an ICE field office!
I've never seen anything like this.

On January 13, 1991, Lithuania faced the challenge of defending its restored independence. Soviet military units flooded into Lithuania and occupied strategically important sites. At that time, the Lithuanian state lacked adequate weapons, and the national defense system was still in its infancy, but the determination of the people to defend their country was decisive.
Fourteen defenders of freedom were killed and more than 500 people who were guarding the TV tower were injured. Their courage became an inspiration to create a free, democratic, and progressive state

"I gotta be honest, I’m not feeling so great.
Renee Good was murdered in our streets of America, and we got literally storm troopers running around terrorizing.
I can’t pretend all this crazy stuff isn’t happening. We have a president who says laws don’t apply to him.
And we could rely on his morality, but he has no morality.
This is crazy.” - Mark Ruffalo

I wrote a blog about deleting social media apps. Not quitting social media, mind you. That hasn’t proven effective in the past. And tbh, I have reasons to want access content on those platforms. So, yeah…my mastodon client (ice cubes) remains installed mainly because I don’t get sucked in by an algorithm.

Software engineers are losing their minds over Claude Code and agents.
Campaigns shouldn’t shrug. The story isn't “AI can code”, it's AI can do knowledge work, and campaigns are mostly knowledge work.

Kamala Harris wouldn't be invading other countries and kidnapping their leaders so people would stop asking if she had sex with an underage girl.
