There is one simple question never posed by any in a position to ask:
Where’s the proof?
#TFG & Company have floated all manner of madness and have never furnished proof. Period. Full stop.
This one exclusion could be the end of #America. #uspol #fascism #doge #racism #whitesupremacy
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Faith No More - Album of The Year Deluxe Edition (2016 Remaster Version). I don’t know of any bands like FNM. #Punk. #Metal. #Prog. #Experimental. #Jazz. #Lounge. Yes, and more, and not all at the same time. Marvelous. #music www.youtube.com/watch
Ok. This is officially my favorite new application of programming to solve a real problem. It’s called #WikiTok and it feeds users random #Wikipedia articles using the same user interface as #TikTok. All learning. No slop. Very nice! #socialmedia #addiction #mentalhealth arstechnica.com/gadgets/2…
This seems to explain a lot. It’s called “Extinction Burst” and it’s a term used in #psychology. There’s a video, but also a transcript, which I read, that covers it. It makes a lot of sense, not that it will help, but knowing is good, I guess. #MAGA #fascism #racism kottke.org/25/02/ext…
The #UK’s #surveillance apparatus creeps from the void like Cthulhu hungering for a midnight snack. Note that in this order it is #unlawful to reveal to the public that they’re doing it to us… and I mean us because that power extends outside of the UK. #dystopia mjtsai.com/blog/2025…
Here’s a #FUNFACT: If #TFG and #DOGE shutter all agencies that have involvement with foreign countries, many of which are allies, the “savings” wouldn’t be a drop in the bucket in comparison to the titanic amounts of money we pour into the #military, #oil subsidies, and corporate welfare. #uspol
So-called #centrists are now the same as #conservatives as we knew them before #MAGA, thanks to #TFG & Co. having the #OvertonWindow bricked up. #Democrats can no longer be trusted. They did just hand #America over to a criminal organization, after all. #uspol www.axios.com/2025/02/0…
Good morning, West Coast… and no, I’ve been up for hours :) Just setting up a new theme for #microblog called Bayou from Matt Langford. I’m still working through some configuration, but it’s all mostly functional now. Check it out and let me know what you think! tylerknowsnothing.com
I wasn’t aware that it took #Hitler 53 days to destroy #Germany’s #Democracy, but I wouldn’t be surprised if #TFG is following a similar process, what with #ElonMusk’s #Nazi salutes and blatantly illegal rampage through our governmental infrastructure. #uspol kottke.org/25/02/the…
I just received an “important reminder” from #Transunion about my free credit monitoring account getting updated with an “exciting” new experience 🙄 I get it free because #Capitalism keeps “losing” my deets. Oh, and this #bullshit. #finance #WeAreTheProduct
Unfettered, uncontrolled, unregulated #Capitalism is essentially crime since they do what they want, say what they want, harm whomever they please, break any laws they choose, and are never held accountable. Those who help them are criminals, as well. #ai #piracy #books arstechnica.com/tech-poli…
A tweet on #Xitter from user Mario64 essentially confirms mouse mode for the #Nintendo #Switch2 as illustrated in patent filings from 2023. Another illustration indicates a dual-#Joycon mouse mode, as well. For details, we’ll have to wait until April 2nd 2025. #videogames kotaku.com/switch-2-…
Well, it seems that #RoosterTeeth might be back! If you don’t recognize the name of the #animation studio, you might recall the years of #machinima Red Vs. Blue, a video game comedy series that used #Halo instead of traditional processes. #videogames www.polygon.com/news/5193…
Ah, the legendary Wayne Shorter on sax, Danilo Pérez on piano, John Patitucci on bass, and Brian Blade on drums performing Angola in 2002 on NDR, Hamburg, Germany’s public radio service. NDR is really, really good at this. #music #jazz #livejazz www.youtube.com/watch

Per usual, trying to ‘fix’ the symptom instead of working on the cause, isn’t working, not that peeps ever seem to learn that (or any other) lesson. We need fundamental change for social networking, not in-school phone bans. Better for all of us. #tech #mentalhealth mobile.slashdot.org/story/25/…
The violation of #American #democracy continues apace with #ElonMusk gyrating at the center of the criminal typhoon #TFG has unleashed on our country. And all of this felonious activity is neatly justified using grade-school gaslighting techniques by the GOP. #uspol kottke.org/25/02/mus…
We now have concrete information on #Nintendo’s launch date and time for the #Switch2.
April 2nd, 2025 @ 6AM PT, 9AM ET.
That is all. You may now return to your previously scheduled vibration of anticipation. #videogames #nintendodirect www.polygon.com/nintendo-…
#Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Big Wreck - 7.x (2021-2023). Released as three EPs, this “album” is the result of frontman Ian Thornley’s ideas on the changing landscape of listener preferences. Today’s playlist combines all three. #music #canrock #progrock www.youtube.com/watch
If you’ve been looking for a #cyberdeck, then you’ve got one more day to get in on the #Pilet #Kickstarter. They’ve already raised CA$1 million of their CA$20k goal… yeah. Popular is an understatement. #tech #raspberrypi #hardware www.kickstarter.com/projects/…
If you’re old like me, you might remember the transflective displays on old Palm and Blackberry devices. Perfectly viewable in well lit spaces. A Taiwanese company now offers a $900 24" 1080p 75Hz desktop monitor using the technology. #tech #hardware kotaku.com/indiana-j…
MacWorld is reporting that #MalwareBytes has released their 2025 edition of the State of #Malware, and agentic #AI will be playing an outsized role in new #ransomware and like attacks. Read & prepare yourself. Verify everything. #tech #security www.macworld.com/article/2…
Reason #WTF Cares to uninstall #Microsoft #Windows and migrate to #Linux or #Mac: Microsoft has now made it harder to install Windows 11 on unsupported but entirely capable hardware so, you know, screw you. Can’t afford new? Oh well. Sucks to be you! #tech #capitalism tech.slashdot.org/story/25/…
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Big Wreck - In Loving Memory of - 20th Anniversary Special Edition (1997). Going back to their first album, and yes, they have been around that long and have always sounded that good. #music #progrock #bigwreck www.youtube.com/watch
The first #trailer for #Marvel’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps has dropped. Previous outings have run the gamut from disastrous to not terrible. Very kitschy as it jumps back to the era of the first #comics. We’ll see, I guess. #movies www.youtube.com/watch
