Yes? I'm not anything close to an engineer who would understand the difference; pls keep people like me informed. @gtconway.bsky.social
I'm sure you're right. Author Rbt Putnam's research has suggested that bonding social behavior's positive and negative consequences are the strongest and mst difficult to overcome.Bonding behavior creates tribalism- Ans? build bridging activities 2 bring 'others' together as plain people. #playcards
And the news article saying that people have a right to have people who look like them live next door to them not a bunch of immigrants? And does that include people who look like his wife? And this mania expected to be our next president? Hello???
Is anyone really surprised? Appreciate your post @adamklang.bsky.social
DHS deceptively spliced images from different cities and times in videos sowing fear about "chaos" in Chicago and Washington, D.C., a WaPo investigation found.

DHS used footage from years ago, half the country away, or even in international waters, the Post found.

As @whoopigolberg said, “You better wake up and pay attention.’
2/2In #Federalistpaper#48 , Madison writes that one of the failings of our ‘constitutions’ (there were many drafts preceding the final) is that we are reliant upon ‘parchment enforcements’ when one branch exercises overreach that disables the others.

He wrote that on February 1, 1788…
1/2 And-what if we don’t?
Then what?
I’ve considered one of his rantings: he mentioned that there were circumstances when elections can be ‘suspended’. Shouldn’t we ALL be looking at his dismantling of norms as the way to create the very situation that would allow that? @smerconish.bsky.social
Looking forward to feedback.
3/3 Here’s another ‘I wonder’: @smerconish.bsky.social : Can you take a deep dive into Trump’s plan to bring us back to the gold standard through his use of his #bitcoin? Implications? Pros?Cons? I watch the markets and am not convinced the ‘gold mining’ isn’t a warning sign of some sort.
2/3 I support #noKINGS, but feel the message needs to be more urgent and more direct. How about, #GOP:WhereAreYou? Dare I say I am nostalgic for the protest days that took over the news day after day after day? I long for the days of Neil Young protest songs.
@smerconish.bsky.social 1/3 Confession: I’m a 1952 baby-boomer. I wake up each morning wondering how my generation, despite our other faults, managed to change the course of the Vietnam War and how we can do it to turn this wave of authoritarianism in the same way.

#GOP. WHERE ARE YOU?? THIS IS WHAT YOU STAND FOR??
Thank you. I knew I wasn't the only one who didn't recognize Charlie's Christ....
I'm so sorry for your loss...
Funny how that happens...
So, I heard about the surge in applications for TPUSA Chpts 'happening all over the world' on Tucker Carlson's show. Thought I'd take a look.Thumbing through the site, I saw this. You watch and tell me what you think: www.professorwatchlist.org?_gl=1*1t95q5...
Yep... you caught me again... 👍
Apologies. Thank you. Yes, from both sides.
"What's happening right now is continuing to evolve, and we don't really know where it's going. It's important not to take the attitude of 'this too will pass,' hunker down for a couple of years and then it will go back to the way it was." @hiltzikm.bsky.social
THIS TOO SHALL PASS??
