The stats on crime show it's down and decreasing, but the media is effectively telling us it's bad and maybe getting worse. Because Fox News is popular and wants to push that message, getting people scared is good for the algos and coverage of crime gives local news something to report. Dems arguing for the facts thus comes off as lying or being out of touch.

Good civics and honest politics can't win if the media has bad incentives. That must be fixed also, if not first.

The video captures a scene at a water park where a person in a bright neon green shirt and red shorts is assisting two individuals seated in a yellow inflatable tube at the entrance of a large, purple water slide with a green interior. The slide is designed with a circular tunnel at the end, and the surrounding area is wet, indicating the presence of water. The person in the neon shirt is seen pushing the tube towards the tunnel entrance, ensuring the individuals are properly positioned. As the tube enters the tunnel, the person in the neon shirt follows closely behind, guiding the tube through the tunnel. The video concludes with the tube and its occupants disappearing into the tunnel, with water splashing around the entrance. The background includes a rocky structure and lush greenery, suggesting an outdoor setting. The video captures the excitement and fun of the water slide experience, with the bright colors and dynamic movement adding to the lively atmosphere.

Takumi at Eindhoven. The waitress just happened to walk through the door...

Not liking the film simulation that was used. Going back to my old one 😅

This is not a defense of some of the worst things about Dubai, Singapore (exploitation of migrant workers etc), but Momtaza Mehri articulates something I agree with:

Many in the ‘west’ do not believe that other places have more than ‘one story’, but allow or demand nuance for themselves. I was especially annoyed when someone here was like ‘Dubai chocolate sucks, Dubai sucks’. All of those things can suck (like when you get a bad Dubai chocolate and say all of it is bad; and Dubai does suck) but then that person doubled down and say they couldn’t support anything with that name, everyone who lives there sucks.

Many of my friends who live there fled from wars that you started, denied visas by your countries.

Usciva esattamente 2 anni fa e da 3 giorni è disponibile in streaming. Un'occasione per vedere #ValentinaLodovini in un ruolo che finalmente la valorizza, grazie alla trasposizione del testo teatrale che l'esordiente regista ha reso un orologio. La vidi dal vivo in "Tutta casa, letto e chiesa" e un po' mi vergognai di ciò che le offre il #cinema italiano. Conversazioni con altre donne - RaiPlay raiplay.it/programmi/conversaz…

These same masked men no doubt want to ban the burqa and blame asylum seekers for crime in Britain. There is no other phrase for it. They are racist thugs.

I was convinced this had to be fake but he really posted this. I was wondering why he would post this then realized it continues his grand tradition of stiffing contractors.



Como buitres negros, volvemos siempre con la misma pareja al sitio donde rompimos el cascarón. Canta Extremoduro, Extremaydura:

'Desde que tú no me quieres
Yo quiero a los animales
Y al animal que más quiero
Es al buitre carroñero
Es al buitre carroñero

Desde que tú no me quieres
Yo todos los días me muero
Y alimento con mi carne

Fue Plutarco el que escribió que “de todos los animales es el menos dañino, (…) porque se dice que no mata ni aún ofende a nada que tiene aliento”.

USA: un’estate di detenzione di immigrati e di resistenza
pressenza.com/it/2025/08/usa-u…
Quest’estate è stata caratterizzata tanto dalla detenzione e dalla deportazione di immigrati quanto dalla resistenza. Mentre l’amministrazione Trump incoraggia gli immigrati in tutto il Paese ad “auto-deportarsi”, gli arresti dell’ICE* (United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement) sono aumentati vertiginosamente in…

I have mixed feelings about this article. The writer, a longtime New Yorker employee, eventually comes to the right conclusion: that human minds are original and “never say quite what you expect”, whereas AI is unoriginal & often cliched. But I found myself annoyed that this comes from a position of enormous media privilege. Kind of the worst of both worlds. Most bloggers these days have little hope of being part of the cultural conversation, thanks to algorithms and AI. newyorker.com/magazine/2025/09…

Yea I wasn't too happy either, ended up losing 20% of my followers and follows over night. Oh well, onwards and rebuilding and I am glad I just left. Server was photog.social

Nice to see you again bud 💙🙏

I'm so sorry to hear that. I have been kind of worried about that sort of thing with the fediverse, as it really does affect people who create artwork. The collateral damage between inter-instance spats can be a huge setback - and after setbacks on other platforms because of algorithm changes, that's really disheartening.

The image displays a server status check page for the website "aur.archlinux.org." The page is divided into two main sections. On the left, there is a placeholder image with a camera icon and the text "No screenshot available." On the right, there is a detailed status report. The report includes the following information: "Website Name: Aur," "URL Checked: aur.archlinux.org," "Response Time: no response," and "Down For: ~46 mins." The status is prominently displayed in red text as "DOWN," with a message stating "Aur.archlinux.org is DOWN for everyone. It is not just you. The server is not responding..." Below this message, there is a "Report an Issue" button. The overall layout is clean and straightforward, with a blue header and white background.

How does ego use illusion to quell your power?


The headline here is that

(1) the increasingly authoritarian US government demanded that Google suppress videos serving the public interest because those videos are embarrassing to government officials, and

(2) Google readily over-complied with that request, deleting not just the videos but the entire channel.

“maybe he should just use Linux”

Spelling out the point of the snark there: the the post is not about what platform he’s using; it’s about the behavior of the US government and Google.

in reply to Paul Cantrell

Sorry at this point I thought the behaviour of the US regime was taken as read and it's solutions that are required...
in reply to CockneyLaurie

@cockneylaurie
I mean…we should not be surprised, but we should still be outraged. It’s important not to skip that crucial step; assuming outrage and immediately moving past it is how complacency and acceptance set in.

And yes, there are ample alternate hosting options for the Streisand Effect to kick in. But we have to be sure to give Google and the Trump admin that black eye, every time.

in reply to Paul Cantrell

Genuine question from my pragmatic autistic point of view: and how that will change anything to give them the black eye?

Saying that, I’m going to look online for a way to contact the author of the video and to mention him the existence of Peertube that he has probably no idea about.

@adelinej
“Give them the black eye” means “discuss this with in our various social circles and express outrage so as to damage their reputation and keep attention on it.” It is easy to underestimate just how real and how impactful that kind of social shift can be.

Once again, Copyright acts as a force of censorship for those in power. This time of censoring information about pubic health.

Can newsrooms become social platforms themselves? Should they?

The future belongs to organizations that understand their communities, not just their analytics. In this post, I dig into a reader question that speaks to the future of social, newsrooms, and AI.
