RE: https://sfba.social/@MLNow/116999846416880470 Very angry about this. How the hell does it make sense to deprioritize trees in a warming climate?

They are using facial recognition everywhere they can. Speak out against ICE/DHS. Speak out against this explosive diarrhea administration. Speak out against surveillance technology.

Found some notes for an unwritten (iirc) Discardia essay about letting go of the web / tech future we accidentally built. Clearly calling it out as a eulogy with all that “it is dead” means.
