The obsession with “transaction” and “no limits” is not unique to tech billionaires. The #Megamachine itself produces subjectivities adapted to its totalizing managerial rationality. It’s a systemic issue, not just a personal flaw.

i know you don't want to be on fuckface but pls read what my comrade and sister wrote, before you vote:
https://www.nationaldiversityawards.co.uk/awards-2025/nominations/systemic/
we NEED more votes. Please share with all your friends far and wide to promote our #choir for the #NationalDiversityAwards. Winning this would be a dream come true!!
What we are all about;
#SYSTEMIC very existence is built on the values of #inclusion,
Many of our members suffer with social anxiety and have experienced isolation and have often felt not valued in life in general. In SYSTEMIC it is different!
We make sure absolutely everyone who comes through the door feels special!
For instance, one of our members travels approximately an 80 mile round journey on the bus to sing at our weekly practice and had mentioned that in many years of trying to attend choirs, he was never offered a solo.
We believe everyone has a song inside of them, its just a case of finding the right song and arrangement. This member has his solo with us! leads the way with his rendition of Dirty Old Town and also brings joy to our audiences as they can see how much fun, and how proud we are all to be there together. Our choir is very different. We accept and welcome non singing members! As we often find that once a person feels included, they will find their voice and raise their confidence level enough to use it.
We have already begun this year's #PRIDE performances as we have shone at Teesside University Intersectional PRIDE event which followed on from our previous performances at the Uni and many other places.
We are built on the ethic of #TrueEqualityMatters which means, everyone attends with zero cost. #TheArcStocktonArts centre understands this and offers us the dance studio each week to practice in for free which gives the wider public an opportunity to witness and join us without any financial barriers or sense of hierarchy due to qualifying on low income. We shine in many places around our region and have recently won the Inclusion award 2025 with Catalyst Stockton who are the regions voluntary development organisation. In winning this award we were invited to plant our tree in a “trees not trophies” initiative which we did so PROUDLY. Our organisation has provided a safe an inclusive space where EVERYONE is welcome, valued, and appreciated. Changing the world, one song at a time.
At least #Perplexity got one thing right:
-----
Multiple #independent #investigations and #leaked #internal #data confirm that #SocialMedia platforms—especially #Meta (#Facebook and #Instagram)—have engaged in #widespread, #systematic #censorship of #pro-Palestinian #content, often in direct response to #Israeli #government #requests[1][2][3][4][6][7]. This censorship has resulted in the #removal, #suppression, or #shadowbanning of tens of thousands of #posts and #accounts, with a disproportionate impact on users from Arab and Muslim-majority countries, but also affecting users worldwide[2][3][4][6].
Key points from the evidence:
- Meta has complied with 94% of Israeli government takedown requests since October 7, 2023, resulting in over 90,000 immediate removals and the suppression of millions more posts through automated systems[2][3][4][6].
- The vast majority of these requests targeted #content #critical of #Israel or #supportive of #Palestinians, and only a tiny fraction targeted Israeli users[3][6].
- #HumanRightsWatch and other NGOs have documented this as a #global, #systemic pattern of #censorship, not isolated incidents[1][5][7].
- There is no comparable evidence of systematic censorship or suspension for users expressing pro-Israeli views; the #documented #bias overwhelmingly targets pro-Palestinian speech[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].
In summary, the documented reality is that pro-Palestinian views are aggressively censored on major social media sites, while pro-Israeli views do not face the same level of moderation or suppression. This creates a significant imbalance in the digital public sphere[1][2][3][4][6][7].

We just reached the end if the last days of @RuthMalan System Design course, and is was exceptional
I mean, of course Ruth is a well of knowledge on systemic and technical architecture design, and her slides+context by themselves are worth the cost of the training. They are just amazing, a succession of pearls distilling the vast knowledge of that broad field. Look by yourself!.
But in addition, I spent 6 days doing group work with an amazing team - that said from someone for whom even anticipating social interactions is burning energy like the sun -, and I practiced a lot of unfamiliar tools that gave shape to intuitions, the kind of "actually that's that you're looking for and you forgot all these parts in your attempt" feedback you get when you're at the beginning of a learning curve.
Thank you Ruth for having organized and shepherded that meeting!

Hello #Design people, I need your help! There is a lot of writing about the #regenerative #design which is all very positive, and I wonder if anyone is aware of any critique of it. After many years going from #sustainable, #systemic, #circular and probably many others I long forgot, I am very skeptical when the design crowds all jump on the next [insert buzzword] design bandwagon.
If you are aware of any writing questioning regenerative design (no climate denials), link it below!
…#Biden’s AG, #MerrickGarland, rescinded the ban on #consent decrees in early 2021. A year later, the president directed the #DOJ to develop national standards for the accreditation of #police departments & a database of federal officers w/ disciplinary records.
In the last 3 years, federal investigators have issued scathing reports detailing #systemic #abuse & #misconduct by police departments in #Minneapolis, #Louisville & #Phoenix.
@zusammen_mehr_elefant bald fangen hier im sueden auch die ferien an. zeit fuer #retro das wird nie #vintage
war spannend bis jetzt und vielleicht motivieren wir ganz nebenbei leute, auch mal was selbst zu hosten. oder wenigstens nen account im #fediverse am leben erhalten. damit das internet nicht immer nur geborgt ist.
bisher auch super zusammenarbeit mit @Castopod

/me, lost in the work of @RuthMalan, like a little human in a party with clearly too much sugar, bumping on perls like
"the architect's boundary bleed detectors"(1)
And grinning b/c someone is able to so well depicts whar I often feel
Seriously, I'm opening links at random from https://www.ruthmalan.com/ and everything is good!

#Introduction Bonjour! I am a #neurodiverse #behaviouralScientist, professor and director of research and enterprise for Kingston Business School, also co-director of #theBRAINSlab where we go beyond self-report measures to study behaviour.
I'm particularly interested in #choice and problem architecture and #systemic cognition: how different behavioural and cognitive designs interact with sight, and imagination to produce #judgments, #decisions, and #creative insights and impact behaviours.
@histoftech Maybe it's a #systemic issue that the #USA refuses to have an actual #healthcare system?
Needing to Crowdfund healthcare expenses sounds like 1870s Germany to me...
#reminder that #fatphobia is not simply a deep-seated hatred for fat #people. It is the #pathologization of a #body type. you may think you love a fat #person dearly and still view their #body as a problem to be solved. our #oppression is #systemic. it is not just a matter of attitude #change.
What troubles me even more than the #impropriety of the #influence peddling #Justice #Thomas accepts, is that the rest of the justices have never, ever, to my knowledge made a stink about it. Zip. Zero. Nada.
This impresses me as a #systemic problem. A #cabal of #elite enthusiastically turning their heads to the improprieties of their fellows, to preserve the #privilege they are all benefitting from.
If the one is implicated, all must be implicated, if we are to see any chance at #reform. Because, as concerns the #SupremeCourt, change can only come from the top.
So, please. Don’t look down your nose at Clarence Thomas, while ignoring the fact that the other justices are not only enabling his behavior, but most likely partaking in it to varying degrees as well.
Be loud. Hold them all to account.

/1 A potentially long and rambling thread: I've mentioned that #permaculture #design principles can be useful in #architectures, #ProcessEngineering, and lots of other #systemic use cases. But it's very hard to articulate how, when 99% of the related material online has to do with #gardening techniques.
So in this thread I'll try to give some hard examples of how I've used this in both #business #ProblemSolving and in #software design.
These are not short examples to dig into, but here goes:

I've recently discovered my brain is #neurodivergent (which explained a lot), but I'm determined to keep it in check.
