2 years ago I was unsuccessfully dodging cars and eating garbage. Now I’m the lord of all I survey; follow me for more lifestyle advice (before/after)

"From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch."

― Edgar Mitchell

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

"Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence.
The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society."
-Joni Askola

see?
here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

Loppu hyvinvointileikkauksille - Kansalaisareena Sosiaali- ja terveysjärjestöt vapaaehtoisineen ovat keskeinen osa suomalaista hyvinvointivaltiota. Hallitus on jo päättänyt leikata sote-järjestöiltä 140

Hallituksen kehysriihessä sakset osoittavat jälleen järjestöjen suuntaan, vaikka sote-järjestöjen valtionavustuksia on leikattu jo lähes 40 prosentilla. Sote-järjestöt vapaaehtoisineen ovat keskeinen osa suomalaista hyvinvointiyhteiskuntaa. Allekirjoita vetoomus!

"I am sick to death of this — of the tech industry deciding it can do what it wants without consequences. Everything is a subscription, everything is harder to use and enshittified. Everything is built on something that was stolen or degraded." www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...

Every morning I wake up and read about fucked up shit happening in the US, but I can’t remember the last time the shit was this shockingly fucked up.

We're making a game where you play a courier rider in 13th century Mongolia

No combat, just you, the horse(s) you've tamed, bred and trained and the vast wilderness.

Would you play this?

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

To understand what's happening in Iran today, you have to know about the history of Western intervention in the country.

In the early 1900s, the British secured oil rights in the country until 1993, where they only agreed to pay Iran 16% of the total profits.

This was seen as an unfair deal. 🧵

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

Fuck Israel and fuck the US for their brazen, neverending killing and warmongering.

I've been meaning to watch that, the trailer was interesting when it came out! Is it available through streaming, or other means?

Tekoälyä pidetään harmittomana hupailuna ja kätevänä työkaluna. Näin luovan työn tekijänä näen siinä myös riskin omien oikeuksien loukkaamiseen. Nyt tämä loukkaus osui todella lähelle. Ensimmäinen kuva on Vesa-Matti Väärän ottama ja se julkaistiin esikoiskirjassani 1/4

Asunnottomina nyt myös nuoret ja vanhukset: näillä miljoonatoimilla Helsinki yrittää kääntää kasvun Helsinki yrittää monin tavoin vähentää kasvavaa asunnottomien määrää. Apu ja asunnot eivät tällä hetkellä riitä tarpeeseen, sanovat asiantuntijat.

Tää kasvava asunnottomuus on Suomelle käsittämättömän häpeällistä. Samaan aikaan rustataan uusia leikkauslistoja, ja mietitään, saisiko kaikkein köyhimmiltä vielä jotain pois. Hyvinvoivan keskiluokan (oma viiteryhmäni) ja sitä rikkaampien tää meininki pitäisi maksaa, meillä on siihen varaa.

a digital redraw of gustav klimt's "the kiss" where a green wireframe man embraces a demure android woman, kissing her cheek. classic windows 98 UI styled patterns adorn their clothes. the man's drapery features a bunch of overlapping windows, all with gibberish text and inverted colors. the woman's dress is filled with lots of different desktop icons in varying sizes. there's a faint glitchy cloud texture over the background, and the hill they kneel on is covered in circuit patterns and loose plugs.

This is starting to get like universal basic income where every single objective study shows the same result but the people who don't like that result go "uh, well there's just really no way to know"

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".
