One thing we need to address now in a constructive way is that the right-wing has been better about co-operating around #openweb media than the left-wing for the last 10 years. We have been worse than useless on simple things like linking between radical media projects. The few successfully left media groups have abandoned alt…

Why so meny manure piles online?
In web application development there are 3 groups you can empower and it’s important to understand which group you are empowering. 1) the users 2) the producers 3) the geeks who develop/admin Most #geekproblem coding is about the 3ed grouping taking all the power to decide. We, tiny, “elite” know what is good for you…
On outreach of OMN and indymedia reboot
Q. I’m not interested in doing that, as I don’t know what it is you are actually proposing. Apart from using hashtags and talking about #deathcult I don’t actually understand your plan? What I haven’t heard is a practical way of hosting and distributing alt media. Visionontv turned into a mess, just as Indymedia did.…
The #dotcons put shiny on there poison pill and we swallowed a heap
Q. but then facebook fucked it all up http://members.aye.net/~hippie/hippie/special_.htm A. Yes, well we kinda fucked it up before #failbook came along.

So what is a #fahernista? A group of individuals who value/push there own individual advancement over the needs of the croup…
The Roman Empire is old hat
Comparing the US global role to the Roman Empire is an old hat. Today we are seeing the “declining” face of this comparison. Trump is selling off “offices” to the highest bidders and drawing power around him self and his family. The White House will be filled with toads and hangers on, the “court” made…
