This video would be better if they replaced “antifa” with “healthcare.”

Mission of Burma was such a blind spot for me. You can hear me astonished at 17:00 in this interview as @natlyon.com shares stories of their live shows and how game changing they were.

Ha! Thanks, Kate!
There’s a full documentary about Mission of Burma on YouTube that is really quite good.

Amazing how my senator, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, only contacts me when he wants money.
I like Chris, but I’d like to see him do more than talk.
I want to see him actually do something.

Chat, vibe coding is out, vibe engineering is in, but what we doing after that, vibe science, viber security, or what?

Don't wanna get left behind.

I can’t watch this. Bondi is an anti-intellectual partisan cheerleader.
Every mistake is redirected. Every uncomfortable question is deflected.
It is tiring to watch.
And completely predictable.
