LAST YEAR (7/28/25, to be exact), went to Wyoming Branch of the Philadelphia @freelibrary.bsky.social … somewhat grandiosely dubbed this Stage 1 of the Tour de FLP, ha… kept at it; here’s Stage 19 (yes, am going in reverse-alpha order for no reason)… IF you want to follow, check @phillynow on IG.

Taping a plastic bag to a job-stealing bot’s “face” is another tactic we have seen.

@phillytechweek.bsky.social is coming up and am trying (not very hard) to figure out how to (politically) awake this big job fair. (Which headlined and fawned over Ghost Robotics—who “innovate” robo-dogs to hunt Palestinians)

About 2 Hour wait thru TSA at SJU Puerto Rico midday (3/24); have seen at least 10 ICE dopes, unmasked, in chatty clumps, draped with tac cosplay gear, doing abso nothing. One Fat ICE bro kept making working TSA staff squeeze past him, till he was finally directed into a corner.

Underrated that the era of neoliberal globalism characterized by fierce defense of intellectual property as rents, patents, and copyrights gave way so quickly to a new paradigm marked by the blithe plunder of all human creativity for LLM training data.

ICE AGENTS PRESENT in SJU Airport, Puerto Rico. Clumps of 2 to 5; doing F-all while cosplayed up with at least 10 pieces of gear plus weapon. Watched a hard-working TSA agent have to squeeze past one of these posers repeatedly before he finally got the big dope to move into a corner out of the way.

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

aptly showed this thinking in a cartoon showing a college exec on a flatbed truck yelling thru a bullhorn: “We need THREE History profs and ONE Humanities !!”

Called Sen. Fetterman’s Philly office and the depressed-sounding staffer didn’t write down my name and contact info (flubbed reading it back). Requested a response and stayed on till it was read back correctly. Morale is low down at Fetterman HQ.
