Guess who misremembered having 25 seconds per slide and instead has 15 seconds per slide on Monday?
FML! :)
Goodness, I hate formalistic presentation styles like Ignite. But don’t worry, I’m breaking the form three times in the talk – including starting with a minute of silence for Gaza (that’s four black slides and 1/5th of the 5-minute talk), a transition (ok, it’s a 15-second transition, but still), and a live demo (yep) – and using that to demonstrate the case that we do not have to accept the rigid confines of the status quo, that resistance and sabotage are always options, and that the way things are is just raw materials for the way things can be. That said, constraints are also good so the reduced slide duration will only make my talk more impactful if I edit it down right, it just means more work… and more than one thing can be true at the same time. ;)
If you’re in Dublin/Ireland and want to drop by, there are no tickets and it’s first-come first-served:

This is brilliant – if you’re interested in human rights, democracy, and tech, and want to understand technofascism/corporatocracy bookmark and read this.👇
Unlike old #authoritarianism built on fear and force, this new system rules through code, capital, and infrastructure — making resistance feel architecturally impossible. It’s a self-reinforcing loop: #Ideology fuels venture capital → #capital captures the state → #thestate feeds the same private systems that built it. A new model of power — #privatizedsovereignty." authoritarian-stack.info/

The #DOJ under Trump is still standing. But inside, he & his lieutenants have taken a wrecking ball to this core pillar of our nation’s #governing system.

For you activist folk that still use Google services, get your shit off google and do it now. Don't store your files there and move your email to @Tutanota
If you can't make that effort you're not to be trusted. Look at the last item on the list in the linked article. Given the current fascist admin, it's clear your files are not safe, secure or private if stored on Google. Likely other US services too.

When Nazi Germany invaded Denmark in 1940, 17-year-old Arne Sejr secretly distributed a short pamphlet called "Ten Commandments for Danes." It inspired countless acts of defiance and led thousands of ordinary people to save 99% of their Jewish friends and neighbors by helping them to safety in Sweden.
Given the modern parallels to the past and inspired by Arne Sejr, a group of artists and organizers created "Ten Commandments of Defiance."
HuffPost: The conservative justices appear ready to gut Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. The only question is how.

#Journalists turn in access badges, exit #Pentagon rather than agree to new reporting rules
Dozens of #reporters turned in access badges & exited the Pentagon on Wednesday rather than agree to government-imposed restrictions on their work, pushing journalists who cover the #US #military further from the seat of its #power.
Outside the Fediverse, you may have encountered platforms where you were obligated to provide your "real" name.
These so-called "real-name" policies, often in fact requiring legal names, are horrible for everyone's privacy. But it's also important to consider how discriminatory and dangerous they are.
Pseudonymity isn't a trivial matter, it saves lives.
Fighting against policies attacking online pseudonymity, such as real-name policies, age-verification policies, and Chat Control proposals, isn't just a banal fight to keep using silly nicknames online. It's a battle for democracy, for civil liberties, and for human rights.
Real-name policies have existed for over a decade, but these problems have become exponentially harmful in today's world. It's time to fight back against this unsafe and discriminatory privacy-invasive practice.
