To every man screaming about women “supporting” Lindsay Clancy…

Please look up Lucy Harrison.

She was murdered by her father after they had an argument about Trump.

Her dad said he “wouldn’t really mind” if Trump sexually assaulted her.

He shot and killed her.

He wasn’t even charged with a crime.

He claimed he was drunk and the gun discharged “by accident”.

Yet they hadn’t even been speaking after their argument and he took her by the hand and led her into the bedroom.

A minute later, she was dead. Shot point blank in the chest.

This man killed his own child.

“Accident” or not, there should have been accountability.

The only reason we even know it happened is because Lucy was a British citizen and they opened an investigation into what happened to her.

Texas just supported the child killer.

Being drunk is not an excuse for murder.

Even IF you believe he genuinely didn’t mean to do it, he still took her life.

Thats at the very least a manslaughter charge and yet he was charged with nothing.

That’s what being “supported” looks like.

When I first posted about her story in February, men flocked to his defence.

Saying how upset he was and that he didn’t mean to do it.

Lindsay Clancy has been visibly distraught in court and yet we’ve been told that doesn’t matter.

We’ve been told repeatedly there should be no sympathy for child murderers.

Yet when the murderer is a straight white man?

He gets the benefit of the doubt.

It’s assumed he was too drunk to know what he was doing.

He gets to go free and men say nothing.

If you won’t even consider that postpartum psychosis could mean Lindsay isn’t responsible, it’s patently absurd to excuse Lucy’s dad because he was drunk.

This has never been about protecting children.

It’s about shaming & controlling women and we see right through it.

Just had a young woman come to my door trying to get me to donate to an independent community organisation supporting people with intellectual disabilities. I'm very keen to see such organisations well resources... but I also think it's wasteful & sad they have to canvas the community begging for funds - they should be socially funded. She agreed. I asked her if she was registered to vote. She wasn't. I strongly encouraged her to do so. The lack of engagement among youth is terrifying.

In Tom Tomorrow's latest, voters of a "parallel earth" elect a poop-flinging baboon—and party leaders and loyal supporters keep defending him, even when the mess lands on them.

Open call, please share. #infosec

I put the Stop Gen AI website into maintenance mode, to stop the spread of ClickFix malware.

I bought WordPress malware scan/removal software a few days ago with "updated definitions" and scanned several parts of the site and backed thoroughly and quarantined lots of malware.

Apparently QuickFix is still there. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

I am a cybersecurity person, but I am so extremely lacking spoons at the moment. I have spoons for automated removal, but not manual.

Stop Gen AI's other cybersecurity people are busy, in crisis, etc.

Please, please, please. Someone please manually remove it. I will muster up a small PayPal payment for your labour.

I can give you web server and WP creds via Signal message.

Plesse share! #infosec

anyway if your software development tool will notably increase cancer rates and air pollution I think you should stop using it.

"One guy in #Sweden built a #searchengine to fight Google, and it works.

It's called #MarginaliaSearch.

It runs its own #crawler and builds its own #index instead of borrowing Bing's. It has no ads, no investors, and no loans.

What it does differently: it ranks for text-heavy, non-commercial pages. Personal blogs. Old university pages.

The weird corners SEO strangled. Every result tells you whether the page uses affiliate links and JavaScript, and you can filter them out.

There's an "explore" mode that just shows you random sites from the index. It's open source under AGPL, so you can host your own copy.

It's keyword-based, so don't type a full question at it. Type two nouns and see where you land. Every #searchengine now shows you the same twelve #monetizedpages."

Brendan Carr can call news he doesn't like fake news and polls he doesn't like fake polls, but there's a real First Amendment and he doesn't get to veto it whenever his thin-skinned puppeteer in the White House gets his feelings hurt.

Tyson shut the gates on 2,500 workers without warning. The workers answered by rallying outside.

Caitlyn Clark reports they’re demanding six months’ severance—and urging Illinois to take the Joslin plant into public ownership and reopen it.

> Why would they give us compute money, but not salary money? It turns out to be pretty straightforward. It’s messy, employing us meat bags.

RE: tldr.nettime.org/@tante/117235

The most surprising realization I had in the last years was how important it is to be public about your refusal to participate in harmful acts therefore giving others "permission" to do so as well. It really matters.

“we’re only using LLMs for security reviews” oh thank god, you’re only using them for the sole reason why I’m bothering with your shitty OS at all

between DHH, brodie, that fucking ex-googler Linux is Best guy doing an anti-Palestine disinformation campaign on fedi, lunduke, liam of gamingonlinux, linus torvalds himself… it really feels like a lot of the loudest influencers and personalities in this space are mask-off assholes up to no good, doesn’t it? it really feels like they’re doing that thing fascists do where they normalize casually doing horrid shit in a space.

There's a concept called active ignorance where you choose to not accept or read evidence of a problematic person or community norm as you don't want to have to think about the harms and perhaps have to give it up.

It's why I'm irritated by the folks who are all no politics please, just the tech. Or that "Bob and Van" piece.

Who you accept in your community, who you choose to work with, especially if you excuse abusive behaviour damages a community more. We see you.

Big Tech does everything it can to hide its true water impact

Because of Big Tech super-secrecy, "the most honest answer to how much water AI consumes will remain a range of source-specific figures. Their differences are useful evidence. They show that the environmental risk is real where infrastructure places new demand on a constrained water system, while a universal bottle-per-prompt statistic cannot identify where that pressure occurs."
