This man is making his evil intentions as crystal-clear as they possibly could be, and everyone who cares about humanity should be blasting that message out in every possible venue.

53% of children followed from birth through age 15 experienced some form of (mostly temporary) housing insecurity. All children who experienced any level of - even temporary - housing insecurity had worse physical & mental health outcomes, with more housing instability correlating to worse health.

One of the things that sucks about actually being able to “do your own research” is how I’m constantly being shown the ways that my patients, people I care about, or in this case all American children, are suffering horribly from easily preventable problems that I am still unable to solve in any way

Tech authoritarians want to take over government for the same reason that criminals rob banks: That's where the $ is.

Musk, Thiel and others pose as “libertarian,” but they're HUGELY dependent "techno-contractors" guzzling public dollars via govt contracts

Germany’s AfD is so extreme it was kicked out of the far-right grouping in the European Parliament last month, but Elon Musk thinks their policies “don’t sound extremist.” That’s because he’s also a fascist.

GET EM NINA! I'm very very VERY happy to see that she's not going to let these lies go completely unchecked. Shellenberger & Taibbi both need to fuck aaaaaaall the way off. They're selling blatant lies and half cooked conspiracies to their readers on Substack, and it has to stop.

Highly recommend listening to this discussion. Gil Duran is doing important accountability journalism on this urgent subject—TechTitans seeking to colonize existing cities (notably, my hometown, SF), or build new ones designed to suit their vision of an anti-democratic society.

Congratulations to Mayor Breed, Supervisor Dorsey, Dickhead Jenkins, that Shellenberger-Wolfe-Humphries entity, and the myriad rich online sociopaths who are almost but not entirely UHS alums--at a time when overdose declined 3% nationwide, you helped it grow 24% in San Francisco.

I live in Nor Cal too. I’m in a semi-rural part of the Bay Area. There are some serious cults up North. I am sincerely very glad you got out and very sorry that you are having a rough go with things right now. ♥️🖤

This is fucking dire. If an SF author written this while trying to warn us about the internet of things in a dystopian satire, we’d have said this was too heavy handed. But this is reality now.

When my late mother was in the last stage of her life I came to stay and care for her. She didn’t have a television so it was loud AM right wing political talk radio. Fortunately, she was a Canadian and not right wing but I would end up yelling and arguing back at the right wing show hosts. lol

Musk is promoting some asshole on Twitter who says homeless people “use all their money to support their drug habit and be high, rather than work.” He also says rent prices have nothing to do with it. How do we know this is horseshit? The simple fact that 40% of homeless people in the US have jobs.

Oh, no. He’s not married to her. Glenn made her a godmother and Lee and that other guy godfathers. Not sure how custody would work lol. Maybe they each get one kid? Kinda weird for sure. 😅

Lee is married to Maytak Chin. She’s a partner at Reed Smith LLP in SF.

There are a crew of them here in the SF Bay Area who are writers, failed candidates and influencers who have moved consistently rightward. Lee’s spouse is a patent attorney and probably also runs in similarly techno-fash adjacent circles.

Pretty sure it was he and Lee Fang who were most likely the “mentors” who turned my former comrade and union rep into a reactionary propagandist. He has enraged the Brazilian left.
