Photographer in Montreal, focused mainly on portraits and fashion these days and less on photojournalism since that's not really a thing anymore. I block accounts that post AI slop.

- The Colorado legislature Monday declined to override Jared Polis’ veto of a bipartisan bill aimed at protecting children from the harms of social media, sparing the governor the embarrassment of the state’s first veto override in 14 years. coloradosun.com/2025/04/28/c...

- Reposted by keithraceThe days of Google Docs are ending; we enter the age of Docs, made by France's Interministerial Directorate for Digital Affairs and Germany's Center for Digital Sovereignty of Public Administration. We need more governments to collaborate on public software projects to achieve digital sovereignty.
- It's really a through line in history that power in one domain gets leveraged to overtake in others. Business unleashed is well into the process of taking over politics, and our businesses are run like mini-fiefdoms with a king-CEO and a court of shareholders. Stoller documents this well.

- All claims that AI "could" be beneficial to artists if it just paid out royalties is a lie because this is what the actual companies building AI believe and are trying to make real
- Nasty work. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/m...
- There's so many gems but Sweetums Devouring His Young is my all time favorite

- This is absolutely real. I tested it in Instagram and got an identical response.

- Reposted by keithraceElection debates are mostly a waste of time. They don't change minds. They don't typically determine elections. They don't dig deep into policy. They're joint press conferences designed to be clipped for social media. www.davidmoscrop.com/p/its-electi...
- These are some good ideas! Can we get Liberals to give a fuck about rising to the challenge of our day, or can we only decide between fascism and corporate-led ecological collapse (and then probably fascism)
- Reposted by keithraceTHE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
- Palantir and the surveillance state techno bros are the allies of Trumpism and gravediggers of democracy. They've been idolized for decades for their "genius" but they're just con-men. Uber is a fucking cab that doesn't pay its driver a living wage. It's not revolutionary, it's just predatory
- So they're what, tapping Lyft rides to mine for more voice training data, or is this some kind of terrorism/Palantir bullshit? Why do app makers think they can own everything about us? Is it not clear yet through Elon the fascism that is coming out of Silicon Valley?

- Reposted by keithraceTAKE A BREAK, BRO! This was the second in the Bro! series, but didn't feature the two art bros, but my og bros. I boarded a casual thing for my friends group chat to see if I had any sense of humor and funny ideas because i didn't do comedy. Decided to animate it months later.

- Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. *Populations* get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner. nymag.com/intelligence...
