I have a criminal mindset.
Raised in a criminal family during the 80s, I case every store I walk into, and regard every official as either a predator or potential accomplice.
It's a mentality that lends itself well to politics. Not so much Marx and Engels, as marks and angles.
This gentleman breaks down the platform of the leading Arab party in Israel.
Basically, they want to westernize Israel, make it a proper, modern state with a constitution, borders, equal rights, separation of church and state, etc.
The Joint List is explicitly anti-Zionist, and its 2026 election platform advocates constitutional changes that conflict with Israel's existing definition as the nation-state of the Jewish people. It also adopts positions on security, military service, Palestinian refugees, and Israel's foreign policy that conflict with those of most Zionist parties.
These aren't mere statements by individual MKs, but are in the Joint List's official electoral platform -- jointly issued by the Joint List's constituent parties, Hadash, Ta'al and Balad. jointlist.org.il/he/platform…

The Jim Crow south was a “preferencial democracy” as in there is no such thing. It’s just apartheid. And all apartheid systems must be destroyed .

Thanks to yall I’m sleeping in a bed tonight. God is so good! 🙏🏾❤️
For the past year, I have silently been homeless living in extended stay hotels while pursuing art and today I’m $88 from having a place to stay. I’m transparent about my circumstance because I believe strongly that my art makes people happy and that my situation is only temporary. I know that my gift will provide for me and introduce me to the right people. Art is my purpose!
Look at my watercolor paintings! I appreciate any support I get during this season of my life

Having money and being able to buy whatever the fuck you want without worrying is such a good feeling

looking at this and remembering that the GDR had a policy where drinks at a bar should cost only nominally more than buying them at the shop because they didn’t want you to drink alone at home they wanted you to get out there and party

For Halloween we dug into some of the spookiest sex work stories in Bay Area history:
🕯️ A Barbary Coast madam who still watches over the women working in her old brothel
🎹 THAT Condor Club piano (yes, that one)
📖 A 1913 memoir that’s scarier for how familiar it still sounds
Wealth inequality is so extreme, some people can drop life-changing money on a stranger, and not feel it.
The top 10% of Americans live in a way that is unfathomable to the rest. The rest of us are not even part of the economy.
If you want to help folks, you can donate to my charity. We help people living in the tunnels beneath Las Vegas strip, and seniors with no foodstamps. None of us are paid. 100% goes to the work.

How do you watch Star Trek and end up a fascist?
No, you don't get to mourn with us.

Jewish immigrant to Palestine accidentally shows a shred of humanity on Israeli TV because she didn't realise they were Live on Air and is immediately terrified.
He discovered his phone took a photo of his face every time he picked it up.
I'm sure they all do.

Claude Code, Android telefonumda benim çekmediğim tam 14.219 yüz fotoğrafımı buldu.
Telefon, elime aldığım hemen her an gizlice fotoğrafımı çekiyormuş. Yatakta yatarken bile. Evdeyken bile.
Ekran görüntüsü falan değil. Bayağı ön kameradan alınmış gerçek kareler.
Trende. Arabada. Evde. Sadece saate bakmak için telefonu elime aldığımda bile.
Sistem önbelleğinde öylece duruyorlardı.
Hepsinde tarih, saat ve GPS konumu var. Galeride yoklar. Son Silinenler'de yoklar.
Telefonu bilgisayara bağladım, tam yedek aldım ve Claude Code'dan galerimde olmayan tüm ön kamera dosyalarını bulmasını istedim.
Gitti, /data/system/users/0/faceunlock/cache dizinini ve Google Play Hizmetleri içindeki başka bir klasörü çıkardı.
14 binden fazla dosya. Hem normal fotoğraflar hem de Yüz Tanıma sisteminin (Face Unlock) kızılötesi kareleri. İstisnasız her birinde zaman ve konum kaydı var.
Fotoğraflara bakmaya başladım. Çoğu son 15 aya aitti. Sonra "2 saniye önce" oluşturulmuş bir dosya gördüm.
Ekranda klasöre bakıyordum. Ben klasörü incelerken bile telefon fotoğrafımı çekmeye devam ediyormuş.
Google ve telefon üreticileri, Yüz Tanıma sisteminin yüzünüzü matematiksel bir modele dönüştürüp görüntüyü anında sildiğini iddia ediyor.
Ama bu telefonda ham görüntüler klasörde aynen duruyordu. O dizine veri yazan işlemlerin bazıları sistem tanılama (diagnostics) servisleriydi.
Hâlâ kamera izni bulunan birkaç eski uygulama da bu klasöre erişebiliyordu.
Tanılama verilerini kapattım, gereksiz tüm uygulamaların kamera iznini kaldırdım ve önbelleği temizledim. Ama bu karelerin kaçı çoktan başka bir yerlere sızdı, hiçbir fikrim yok.
Kendi cihazınızı kontrol etmek isterseniz: Telefonu bilgisayara bağlayın, tam yedek alın (ya da ADB kullanın) ve Claude'dan Galeriniz dışındaki ön kamera dosyalarını bulmasını isteyin. Benim dosyalarım yukarıdaki dizindeydi.

Yes. They are mostly apolitical in any real sense. Their ambition is not to win, or to change the world for the better. it’s to feel powerful, be known for something, and live in a big house.

Late-stage capitalism figured out how to monetize loneliness.
Erase third spaces. Make going out too expensive. Work people too hard to keep up friendships.
Then sell the emptiness back as dating apps, delivery, streaming, and subscriptions.
Isolation as recurring revenue. Nasty work.
