Activist Headquarters

As is a form of “winner takes all” ahistorical thinking. One reason I respect journalists like Yasha Levine, Christopher Ketcham, Andy Nikiforuk or Ed Zitron who cut through this noise is the sense of a person all parts of whose mind work together to understand reality. Evgenia Kovda and Marina Bolotnikova are the same.
I feel the same way about Nathan Robinson, Alex Skopic, Troy Farah, Chauncey DeVega, Matt Stoller, Alec Karakatsanis, Briahna Joy Gray and many others.

Whatever their human contradictions, not one of these people (much like Timnit Gebru/Dair, Emily Bender, Yan LeCun, Ryan Williams, Rollo Carpenter, Amanda Marcotte, Anand Giridhardas, Victor Tam, Clayton Dalton, Josh Silberg, Tim
Wu, my liege Lina Khan who other than the Humane League is one person who moves fast and fixes stuff, Andrew O’Hehir, Nicholas Carr, Evgeny Morozow, Madhav Gadgil except he passed away, Jill Filipovic, John Naughton


A disparate crew I threw together as I watched the world in alarm wondering where sense can be found as people who can be counted on in crises.


The haste of outrunning something mindnumbingly stupid and with no awareness of it is forcing me to use a kitchen sink approach where each one of the people I mentioned above is a unique and talented human. But it is bad enough that I lost all this time and my mom. For this avalanche of stupidity to cause more economic att

I have a personal affection for Yasha in particular because he somehow reminds me of a beloved colleague who taught me how to use shared instrumentation without breaking anything.
That was the pinnacle of achievement of a largely chequered career. I am going to finish a paper no matter what, but it is harder with a totally banally lame nuisance that is portrayed as apocalyptic.


It is apocalyptically stupid yes. There is a lot of malice in life, but I have had just enough privilege and fortune to avoid it. But it is all kind of a wash at this point and I refuse to court directed malice on top of undirected malice and random bad luck.

This is getting really lame-everyone in this society is a brainless muscled jock or a histrionic and I protest all of it.

This too big, too stupid approach is not working. I learnt a useful thing or two from John Naughton, Anand Giridhardas, Jill Filipovic but you can’t follow everyone. And I stopped following Naughton mainly because anyone who respects Elon Musk is dead to me. I always hated Musk. These guys with traumatic childhoods who never end up coercively shrinked while clearly having serious issues, while I keep getting called insane or a bot unless verfied by stalkers tick me off. Why isn’t Musk being forced into therapy and rehab?

He is way stupider, crazier and far more destructive than I could ever. Maeve Higgins got it.


I am dealing with something I cannot see, most of which I unambiguously want gone asap without some moronic UFO researcher blaming 5G, enabling an equally moronic corporate shill of a hyperlibertarian who then disingenuously points to the dumbest kind of criticism to stop any real kind.

Everything is conserved one way or another. When you have to entertain an idiot-an ass of a contrarian or a clueless person, you have to then shut out someone with genuine insight.

And these societies are clearly run so that the hard forms of worthwhile and healthy growth are choked out of existence for the dumbest methods, the worst kind of bulk and batch processing that is such a ubiquitous fucking nuisance dammit.


With this much snoopy surveillance, it is an outrage that so many bright people get it and I have risk being misinterpreted as a knowitall by various wags when I am just saying why is no one pointing out how disingenuous so much discourse is when they have to know.

To keep whaling on the same points that are going nowhere when this rich data set of mindboggling stupidity is available..


I have attained a level of shrill that should please Atrios.
I owe a deep debt to Yasha Levine. The Guardian review of the lovely and charming Deb Olin Unferth.


It is such a pleasure not to have to call people stupid but I will do it! Just because I am a solitary and unpopular person doesn’t mean that is disingenuous rot should fly while it disables and destroys everything worthwhile that as a awesome and cool Troy Farah got is so non local that it is hard for the public to work out what is going on and I won’t be assigned the demeaning label of Crazy Woman Yelling at Clouds you damn brainless fascists. Hennessy I am this close to throwing Pichai to the kraken. And presumably he is your friend. The other day I was sitting around feeling irked and I come out and randomly see that dead-eyed ass talking about “predictions” and without any ai or tech, I made not a prediction but a commitment to throw that guy to the kraken if shit hits the fan. It is a real shame that Zuckerberg disrespected and lost Prof Lecun. He was the only person keeping the thinking human from moving Zuckerberg up on the cannon fodder list and buying up all of medical research with your pampered trophy wife, cartoon good immigrant moll Zuckerberg is blatantly deviously stupid.

As Yasha Levine pointed out a society that chooses immigrants like Priscilla Chan while making life hell for visitors..

I wanted to see the world out of interest.,what are other people and cultures like.
You are building a world of faux meritocracy by destroying latin america, accelerating climate change and refugee crises and polemicists and demogogues exploit..The genuinely Turner Diaries friendly crowd whose incompetence is the sole saving factor.


Because our organs of communication are beyond diseased and now it is ..

I promise myself I won’t delete these. I stand by it!

Increasingly the voice in my head is sometimes that part of Abba’s “Hole in your Soul” where she goes “THEY ALWAYS SPIT IN YOU”

This isn’t comedy hour but ..well..you know kraken or something plus every damn thing breaking and


I WON’T STAND FOR MORE OF MY FRIENDS, FAMILY, COLLEAGUES AND NETWORK GETTING SHAFTED.
It was bad enough that this happened to me.

But the three labs I worked in were genuinely decent. NOT LIKE AN OPAQUE MORON/CREEP/some decent human army that gets to make far too many decisions affecting everyone and then adroitly covering their rears, use a mix of bullshit strategies, blaming dumbass ai agents..

No accountability.
And glorifying fucking China while making life hard for the nicest Chinese Americans, the nicest Indian Americans, the nicest African Americans, the nicest Latin Americans, the nicest White Americans and sucking up to a criminal billionaire class and parroting a pile of mainstream bullshit so lame that it is driving people to malicious conspiracy mongers online..
Damn you all! I have to borrow from dubious performance art adjacent strategies which creeps like that awful traffic snarling creep artist use. That guy is a total creep. If Google pretends to find your criticism legit it is bullshit.

Hawley is better than Google.. At least Stoller likes him and the democrats do have to not ignore real info i.e. that if Reid Hoffman etc shut down the real base, Hawley ..you know.


I am not breaking board rules or “influencing”. But I don’t want Trumpy Indian businessmen like the totally creepy Shalab Kumar or Vincent Palathingal or Ragy Thomas etc using an era of deregulation to use a malicious thieving mix of a type of bogus intelligent design and creationism adjacent poison that boosts worthless entertainment over trustworthy and secure infrastructure.
These guys are a national security risk as someone like Ajit Doval hopefully recognizes.

I am unapologetically on the left, but I can appreciate and identify conservatives who are less likely to make my life hellish as opposed to these disgraceful people like David Brooks and Mitt Romney who finetune the act of ship jumping and make it look like truth to power.

And it is forcing me into this and it cannot be sport or failed dammit. You all have no survival instincts..damn you all you lemmings..
I stand by it 😤
Eek

That is usually inside my head. Sorry to all the kraken food. Society..


Increasingly it is not just your shit, its also mine..my street, my home, my medical/academic/travel data, my devices ( screw you you damn price gouger Cook), my person, my awesome brain..


I don’t want my small local network -my medical mj company (what is colonialism is not English, it is an archaic narcotics law from the British Raj..what is colonialism is these dumbass tech and other companies getting a free hand as well as creepy Pegasus etc. As for communists or the joke of a “left” here, I have never seen peoplw more encouraging of the worst types of private enterprises and as heartily for deregulation. Beef is not a left wing issue in the age of climate change.
Conveniently always throwing away the hardest parts of any world view that require effort while keeping the worst. There is no such thing as Brand India and people who say that should be fed to kraken.)

Worst of all in my microcosm where people of all religions work together peacefully without an ass like Alex Pentland exploiting it is endangered. During that stupid pandemic my Muslim GP whom I really respect and like started becoming cold. Probably malicious slander. Some of my favorite doctors are Christian and Muslim. My family is Hindu and a collection of unknown creeps have no business sowing discord.

When I was in the US it was the same..it is not your bullshit kayfabe fake reality. All the people I met for the most part were decent-white, nonwhite, male, female and yes Republican and Democratic.
As you can see from the specific lefties I follow my politics are not ignorant or insipid, but I don’t go all “Billionairee are awesome let leopards eat faces” because someone who is not convinced by your rubbish media doesn’t agree with you on what is right for them.

Every human I know irl one way or another Limits their own growth so they are not a burden to society.
The disabled and poor are not a burden to society.
Limits to Growth are real. It is not “freebies” for the poorest of the poor that is breaking reality you solipsistic, narcissistic dickheads..

These morons at the top gaming reality are a burden.
I have tried to stay in my own lane and limit my growth and pay my dues in sane and ORGANIC (not bloody AA and prozac and bs you crazies) ways ovsr and over again.
And still you spill into my lane and take me hostage and scapegoat me.
Admittedly without being aware of it but undirected malice is still malice you nutjobs.
