If your corporation's business model relies on lawbreaking, your corporation has no legal legitimacy.

We don't let narcotic cartels and trafficking rings list themselves on the stock exchange: why should OpenAI or Facebook be any different?

Time for a new variation on a classic.

@HarriettMB @sundogplanets we know how to fix Climate Change without all these unproven technologies.

But that would mean Rich Men would be a little less rich so wild super-science ideas that appeal to rich idiots is the way we're going!

Don't anybody ask the Scientists if this shit will work, get some influencer on Twitter to say it's fine instead!

A few days ago I posted about the case of Nicola Packer accused, tried but found not guilty of having an illegal abortion....

If you thought the details of that post was horrific, the further details of her treatment revealed in this interview are both heartbreaking & disgraceful - a women abused by legal process.

Misogyny has no place in the legal system but we can see all too well that its structurally embedded in the law!

Stupid? Evil? The "immigration" thing.

What do reform voters want? They *pretend* they want numbers to go down. Now, this is already a false debate, shifting a debate about rights/benefits/costs to reducing people to numbers.

But it's also a lie. Because what they want is US-style performative cruelty. Which is impossible under the rule of law.

And so, "responding to voter concerns on immigration" is a sure vote loser. --

Vibe coding claims of the "hours instead of weeks" variety are rarely accompanied by an actual example.

But when they are, they sure do look like they would have taken hours - maybe a Wordle clone or a Quote Of The Day app or a TO-DO list thingummy.

Y'know. The kind of stuff you might build at a hackathon.
