but techbros, especially the ones who can't code shit at all, don't want to have human developers AT ALL.

what's going to happen is AI going all Hapsburg inbred in that time EXACTLY because techbros are using it to get rid of the creative people they hate paying for their labor.

btw, the last Hapsburg king, Carlos II, also suffered from hallucinations.

people are just finding out the (very objective and totally not biased) algorithm is a lie.

i keep wondering where would we be if i had been taken seriously when i wrote about this 15 years ago and not marginalized for publishing obvious truths that countered the hype of the day.

like, when Google came out with Chrome & Android? humint they’d use to game ad pricing eventually & devalue ALL digital labor, not just blogs... which they did.

FUCK YEAH, NEW JERSEY!
this is why it’s imperative to fight the zombie corpse of the Clinton/Pelosi DLCC which was always right-wing election profiteering in the Democratic Party. a model, coincidentally, embraced by Keir Starmer in the UK.

@heidilifeldman yup. that's to be expected if e look at what happened in Europe after the war. a lot of coalition re-shufflings.

A fantastic excerpt on Wired from @josephcox's new book DARK WIRE, about how the FBI ran an encrypted phone company used almost exclusively by criminals as the largest ever wiretap operation. I bought a copy of his book, so should you. It's a brilliant read and one of my favorite books of the year.

another crypto scam but, ironically, they didn't go after the religious cult that supposedly runs the newspaper? what's outrageous is that Newsweek is supposed to have a similar setup after it got bought some years ago. but the DoJ is going after them for the crypto. unbelievable.

ABOUT #BdayForLiza

am gonna make it a whole birthMONTH. so even though next monday is my birthday, i am not going to shut the fuck up about it til after June 30th. the last year has been brutal battling cancer and am going to get extra extra celebrating my time on this here Earth.

so yeah,

🗣️ 📣 JUNE IS MY BIRTH MONTH, SO I WANT ALL THE HAPPY WISHES BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER MY BIRTHDAY

cuz, #fuckCancer this year, verily.

it's a Happy Birthday Month for me this year

blogdiva,
@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

🗣📣 IT’S SIX DAYS TO BUT YOU CAN WISH ME A HAPPY BIRTH MONTH NOW!!

June is also Puerto Rican Heritage month. there is a 1966 pic of me somewhere in the bowels of the NYTimes with papi holding my newborn self in one hand and a Puerto Rican flag on the other.

and because there is no voguing nor drag houses in NYC without Puerto Ricans, June is also Pride Month.

June is the month to celebrate ME, Puerto Rican heritage & queerness. coincidence? I THINK NOT!

WHOA! Samantha Power may not be a household name, but was one of Obama's trusted advisors on international politics, serving as his ambassador to the United Nations. Ms Power is not at all a progressive or leftist or any sort. she's your sundry Democratic Party yuppie. this is huge if she's resigning over Biden's #Gaza policy. she knows #genocide. she won a pulitzer prize for writing about it.

REMINDER: corporatism IS fascism. USA's political elites are controlled by unelected corporatist oligarchs for whom politics isn't about party or nation but business. checkout how the DNC wants to price out the little people from their fundraisers. this is literal corporate capture but with political parties because oligarchs only care about the state violence they can capture & profit from.

YES, NO REPUBLICAN SHOULD ENTER THE WHITE HOUSE IN A CENTURY

but if all Dems are gonna be like Biden? then neither should the corporatist bootlickers of the Democratic Party.

and that's why i insist in making a distinction between them and people like AOC or Rashid. especially, Bloomberg's existential thread, Elizabeth Warren.

and then there's Bernie Sanders who was smart enough to leave the party back in the day because he knew the fuckery that was Clintonism.

VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION

blogdiva,
@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION
it's not a mandate when the opposition is fascist and the billionaire donors of your party's elite as part of that fascist opposition.

VOTING FOR POTUS ONLY MATTERS IN SWING #ElectoralCollege PRECINCTS
not having direct democracy is why it's easy for oligarchs to buy themselves a party. even the Greens, btw.

so don't worry about some shmuck in NYC not voting. worry about people not voting in fucking Maricopa county.

you're white in the South? STFU & hit the pavement

blogdiva,
@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

IF YOU ARE WHITE AND IN A SWING DISTRICT, GO TO WORK

it's not Darnell from the Bronx's job to get your neighbors to the polling places.

especially if they're young or Black or both. that's your job.

don't berate BIPOC or LGBTQI people online for telling you the truth about the fascism in this country: it's always been here, it's just been called Manifest Destiny, white supremacy, racism, homophobia, sexism.

so go to work. we all have different work to do

blogdiva,
@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

BUT REMEMBER:
VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION
that means you won't be able to delude yourself that you are done just by voting.

let me say it again, with the chest:

🗣️ VOTING IS HARM REDUCTION. YOUR #ANTIFA WORK IS NOT DONE BY JUST VOTING.

you know this has always been true, but now, you cannot continue pretending it was "those other people's problem". we didn't even have to tell you. Biden has show his true political face and it's ugly.

so prepare to not rest until you stomp the last fascist

blogdiva,
@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

THIS IS WHY SELF-CARE IS POLITICAL WARFARE because there was never a democracy after all and the job will not be done come November.

it's just that you chose to pretend racism, sexism, misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia, classism —all the social and politica and economic hates and phobias— had nothing to do to with #fascism.

yet here we are.

so prepare yourself to fight Biden & his brand of Democrats even harder for the bare minimum. they sell everybody out for a bad #abortion win

blogdiva,
@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

AND WHY AM CALLING Y'ALL WHITE PEOPLE OUT especially if y'all out in the south? because more White people voted for Trump, a Republican, in 2020 than at any time in USA history. in the middle of a pandemic. after sitting at the last minute another illegitimate SCOTUS justice to the bench, Amy Barret Cohen, a woman who is literally in her thiclose to heretical flavor of Catholicism, a handmaiden.

61% of white men and 55% of white women voted for Trump in 2020.

that wasn't us. that was you.

blogdiva,
@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

so, please, stop yammering about Black people not voting for Biden. literally, every single Black voter could vote for Biden and he'd still lose.

2024 is about YOU going to war against YOUR WHITE FAMILY, WHITE FRIENDS AND WHITE NEIGHBORS VOTING FOR TRUMP.

and... you know... shutting it about what young people say is their line in the political sand; because, let me say it again,

🗣️ 📣 DEMOCRATS CANNOT WIN WITHOUT GEN Z

so live with the fact y'all need to move LEFT for democrats to win

the obligatory, DON'T FUCK IT UP, Rupaul GIF

@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

AND JUST LIKE THAT,
this is, yet again, one of the million ways democrats are fucking it up with #GenZ #Zoomers
