Trump Lays Out a Vision of Power Restrained Only by His Own Hubris
On topic after topic, Trump made clear that he thinks he is the arbiter of any limits to his authorities, not international law or treaties.
"My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”
“I don’t need international law,”
he added.
“I’m not looking to hurt people.”
When pressed further about whether his administration needed to abide by international law,
Trump said,

Free speech is the power to criticize your government without fear of prosecution. It is a basic human right.
It is not about getting away with hurting your neighbor who never caused you any harm. Dignity is a human right.
That is also what "love your neighbor" is about.
It's just a sensible thing to do.
Do not tolerate hate speech.
There is no (need for a) "freedom to hate".
Be kind to one another. 🧡

A serene and atmospheric winter scene unfolds in this black-and-white photograph, capturing the quiet beauty of a misty landscape. The foreground features a bare tree, its intricate branches reaching upward and outward, creating a striking silhouette against the foggy backdrop. The tree stands as a focal point, its stark lines adding a sense of drama and elegance to the scene.

The ground is lightly dusted with snow, adding texture and a sense of stillness to the landscape. A simple wooden fenc…

The Trump administration’s attack on diversity, equity and inclusion has rolled back decades of progress for women,
who now face a widening gender pay gap and narrowing employment protections.
In the process, discussions about women have become a third rail,

E.g. I have a pre-recorded compact cassette that is 50 years old and works just fine (and sounds great!), and floppy disks from the early 80s that read with no problems.
Yet when I search for this topic everyone always claims "10–20 years" is what to expect from magnetic media.

While working through another last rites slew, I was thinking that back in the day there were a number of developers who believed they should add a lot of packages to #Gentoo, in the name of giving users a choice. Like, they were projects whose sole purpose of existence seemed to be to find every piece of software that roughly fit a specific topic, get it to build and package it for Gentoo.
Of course, the long-term effect of that is that there's a lot of unmaintained, often broken packages. "The choice" doesn't really work. Sure, users have a lot of packages to choose from — but they have to actually figure out which of these packages are actually useful (if any).
A few years ago attempting to remove packages also faced some verbal opposition. You shouldn't remove unmaintained or outdated packages, because they still work. You shouldn't remove packages that sometimes fail to build, because some flag combinations still work. You shouldn't remove packages that don't build at all, because the user can visit Forums and find some workaround to make them build 🤦. Or they'll have an ebuild handy to start working on it. And anyway, you shouldn't be removing stuff at all, but fixing it instead.
Sometimes the arguments were straight dishonest too: people literally said we need more packages to lure new users in. Like, it didn't matter to them that the packages didn't really work and that the people trying to use them will get a nasty surprise. They wanted people to say "hey, Gentoo has this software we need, let's start using Gentoo".

This is a fashion trend. It’s not just functional; camo serves no purpose of disguising whatsoever on Minneapolis streets. Militaries are dressing the part — and ICE is playing dress-up.
Avery Trufelman’s excellent podcast Articles of Interest spent an entire season on this topic, under the name “Gear.” Here’s on relevant episode.

It's hard to approach the topic of Persona and all their partners without just falling into the suggestion of telling everyone to self-host their life online, it's probably gonna be what everyone needs to do eventually but in a way it's a platform-wide version of when we were leaving Twitter.

'Eingefrorene Bewegung' #FotoVorschlag 'Frozen Movement'
Ah I almost didn't want to post a photo for this topic until this photo came to my mind. And it's a frozen motion even literally... right?
More about this day:

A dynamic and atmospheric winter scene unfolds in this image, capturing the raw beauty of a snowstorm. The sky is filled with swirling snowflakes, creating a dense curtain of white that partially obscures the landscape. The snowfall adds a sense of movement and energy to the scene, as the flakes dance and swirl in the wind.

In the foreground, patches of snow-covered grass and rocks are visible, their textures softened by the falling snow. The contrast between the white snow and the darker tone…

I see somebody else is on this topic today! And yes, billionaires will use regulatory capture to the maximum extent they can get away with — so yes, I fully expect the AI lobby to advocate a tangled legal regime where LLM output is copyrighted but copying data to train an LLM is not a copyright violation.

Raiders GM John Spytek breaks silence on Maxx Crosby saga at 2026 NFL Combine, expects pass rusher to return

A much-discussed topic on here is how many pundits only assign agency to Democrats.
(Not Ned, other people.)
Clear R role in MN cop-tracking/mocking.
Seems very clear to me that the mass pardon of J6ers made it hard for Rs to credibly finger-wag about Disrespecting Law Enforcement.

'Blick von oben' #fotovorschlag 'view from above'
When I saw the topic, I wasn't sure wether I should post a mountin photo or not. But as I have seen so many others doing so, I decided to also post this "view from above" from ~3 months ago when I went to this mountain and enjoyed not only the silence but also the view.
Enjoy!

A breathtaking alpine panorama unfolds in this image, capturing the stunning beauty of a snowy mountain landscape. The foreground features a snow-covered slope, its pristine white surface glistening under the bright sunlight. Footprints in the snow suggest recent activity, adding a touch of life to the serene scene.

Scattered across the slope are clusters of evergreen trees, their dark green foliage providing a striking contrast to the white snow. The trees add texture and depth to the scene, …

'Tierische Begegnungen' #FotoVorschlag
'animal(ic) encounter'
I wasn't sure if I have a good or funny one to share with this topic. But I remembered visiting a wildlife park nearby at an autumn day.
It was a beautiful stroll through the park, watching the wildlife there when this situation came to be. Unplanned, just by pure luck.
And well.. I thin…

A magical autumnal scene unfolds in this serene forest setting. The forest floor is carpeted with a thick layer of golden and orange leaves, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Sunlight filters through the tall trees, casting a soft, golden glow that illuminates the scene and highlights the vibrant colors of the foliage.

In the center of the image, a majestic animal with large, curved horns stands gracefully amidst the fallen leaves. Its presence adds a sense of tranquility and natural beaut…
