And another thing about this Gulf of Mexico thing… I was under the impression that #TFG’s America was about the Freedom™ of #Capitalism? But #Google just caves to Dear Leader’s petulant colonialist demand like it was State Run? How pathetic. #tech #capitalism #fascism gizmodo.com/google-ma…

Can someone please make a browser extension that puts a label over “Gulf of America” that reads “Gulf of Mexico” in Google Maps? I can’t code to save my life, but I don’t think it would be that complicated… right? #tech #google #TFG #internet #programming jalopnik.com/google-is…

I’m not familiar with the MSX system. Not many Westerners are as it was primarily a Japanese home computer standard that started in 1983 and ended ten years later. This, like the Book 8088 and Pocket 386 before it, does look cool, though. #tech #retrocomputing liliputing.com/msxbook-i…

I didn’t bother watching Superb Owl LIX, but I should have. Kendrick killed the #halftime show, and watching it on YouTube I see he spoke loud if you were willing to listen and see with open ears and eyes. #music #superbowl #resistfascism #resisthate www.youtube.com/watch

RE: RFK Jr. being sworn in as #HHS Secretary; Every last one of #TFG’s appointments have been people who either owe #DearLeader for their acceptance into #MAGA, have been licking his boots clean for years, or gave him money… oh, and are white and “camera ready”. #uspol #fascism #capitalism

It could be the #iPhone SE4, but I’d like to note that Mr. Cook asks us to “Get ready to meet the newest member of the family.” I think it could be the return of the AirPort. Look at the graphic for the announcement and the AirPort A1034 attached. Just sayin'. #tech #Apple 9to5mac.com/2025/02/1…

I call bullshit. If the #Democrats won’t do anything because they don’t hold any power, which makes no sense because the #Republicans got up to all manner of shady bullshit when they were in the minority, what fucking good are they? #uspol www.axios.com/2025/02/1…

No wonder the #oligarchy is hell bent on protecting #AI. After slowly murdering #education, they can then use #AI to replace it with #agitprop and #revisionistHistory to save their precious #Capitalism from the clutches of meaningful #regulation. #tech #uspol gizmodo.com/chatgpts-…

Laptop maker #Framework is announcing a new product on 2/25 at 10:30AM PST using some pictograms to suggest words. My translation: “Oh [hi]! We’ve been working on something [colorfully][flexible], something [powerful], and something worthy of [gamers]. #tech www.theverge.com/news/6103…

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: The Michael Landau Group - Organic Instrumentals (2012). Landau is one of those legendary session guitarists you’ve never heard of. Check Wikipedia. This album is a quiet bomb and is amazing. A must listen. #music #jazz #jazzfusion www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Faith No More - Angel Dust (1993). Some FNM for the hard core bangers, this album doesn’t stray too far from their funky metal sound, but a solid release for long time fans. Also, be aggressive and a sultry cover of “Easy”. #music www.youtube.com/watch
Ever wanted a #mustache? I already have facial hair, but a friend wanted me to try some new styles, so I did. I’ve included an example. Share with us and send yours, and they don’t have to be of you (wink). #fun #decompression #stopfascism www.facetache.com
