“‘We had to destroy the village to save it’ is not a new American rationalization, and the imperial boomerang can and will, if we don’t stop it, bring it to bear on the American populace.”

🥳 New Kitten¹ release
• Added `initialise()` hook to `kitten.Component` instances.
This gets called at the end of the constructor and is handy if you don’t want to override the constructor and have to handle the `data` parameter and remember to call `super(data)`. You can still access passed data from `this.data`.

Note that the component is not part of the view hierarchy on the client at this point. If you have tasks you need to perform only once per page – for example, ins…

AI companies are raising at valuations that require them to grow at rates that are only achievable by chasing the broadest possible market with the most generic possible product.
A company that raises at a $500M valuation needs to show a path to billions in revenue,
which means it can't afford to be a niche tool that does one thing brilliantly for a specific audience.
It has to be a platform, horizontal, aimed at enterprise, built for no one in particular.

love this doll collection
lovevy.neocities.org/dollhouse


Name: Dr. Evil & Mini Me
Description: Choked on my spit when I saw this I HAD to have them. They're from 1999 so technically vintage. And yes I took them out of the (pretty cool) box I wanted to free them!! Dr. Evil's mold is scarily accurate.
Now all I need is a fembot.

Name: Snowflake
Description: I got her in 1st grade, I skinned her in 12th. She's been my lifelong companion

Name: Cornelius
Description: His body was given to me and my sisters by firemen as concilation because we thought she was gonna die. And I painted the head. I wish I had laquer to really get the porcelain shine.
He has a sibling but I fucked it up and never redid it

Name :

Description :

The body I had to disembody the head from. I didn't want a headless baby body hanging around so I painted it white and made it a vase. Now it has purpose.

"We are now at a critical juncture. We are at or very close to human caused environmental change that will fundamentally unpick the life-sustaining systems on Earth. These risk triggering feedback loops...
Ultimately that could cause the planet to drift away along the pathway to “hothouse Earth”, a scenario where even if emissions were reduced, self amplifying feedback loops would drive global temperature increases up to or even beyond 5°C"

Infographic of the timeline of climate change and the missed attempts to correct it, showing the two options we have left as 'Social Unrest...' or 'Degraded future, destabilised Earth system and societies'. The latter is the course we're on.

A little lama sitting on a desk in the middle of a meadow. The meadow is on a slightly hilly landscape with rolling hills and a blue sky. The sun is shining and just 3 little fluffy clouds to be seen. The little lama is sitting in front of a computer with his paws on the keyboard typing something. The screen is showing a black terminal with green text.

Style: comic style illustration, pencil art
Mood: funny, playful, optimistic

Federal Judge Cameron McGowan Currie on Monday tossed out separate criminal charges against the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey and New York’s attorney general, Letitia James,
saying the loyalist prosecutor installed by Trump to bring the cases was put into her job unlawfully.
The twin rulings are the most significant setback yet to Trump's efforts to co-opt the criminal justice system to punish his perceived foes
The dismissals,
while embarrassing for the Wh…

On this Monday morning, please spare a thought for those who are starting the week off in cold, damp tents surrounded by the rubble of their previous lives, trapped within the clutches of an ongoing genocide that is the collective failure of humanity.
If you want to help, here’s a list of verified Mastodon accounts of Gazans and links to their fundraisers, ranked by how little support they got last week to feed their families and cover the basic necessities of life:

The Colorado River is on the verge of crisis.
No one has a solution.
Once again, the Colorado River is heading toward a crisis. This time, the way out appears murkier than ever.

For months, the seven states of the Colorado River basin have failed to reach an agreement on new rules to share the river’s dwindling supply of water.
The current rules that divvy up water among 40 million people in the West, including Los Angeles, Phoenix and farming regions that provide most o…

The Los Angeles Metro Board
unanimously voted Thursday to proceed with developing a
14-mile-long subway under the Santa Monica Mountains.
It’s one of the first significant steps in what city and county leaders are describing as
the region's most consequential transit project -- and perhaps one of the most important in the country.
Metro staff said in a report to its board that it has secured funding through county tax measures for about 14% of the $24.2 bill…
