Seriously. Don’t boost something without reading it. This is just irresponsible.
Went back & finished reading this, my b for sharing w/o completing - he is wrong on a lot! We should *not* throw marginalized people under the bus! I maintain he should shut the fuck up! But "be mad at the status quo & fight for affordable housing + childcare" is better than "roll over & play dead"

Carville’s way will be another turn of the crank of what happened during Bidens term. We must hold people to account. That won’t happen with this thinking.

I’ve given quite a bit to RFS (look it up @amandalitman.bsky.social) but your boosting of this piece is very disappointing and I will reconsider my support in the future.

Now is the time to stay strong for values. To fix our system we must condemn those that broke it.

Ok so both McLaren cars were disqualified for riding too low.

I’m in the Las Vegas lounge and a lot of the team is here.

NEW: Trump's DOJ sent a subpoena to a gender-affirming care clinic seeking information on patients, including minors, and its insurance billing practices. The clinic—which doesn't even take insurance—fought the demand in court and won.

A Washington judge quashed the Trump administration's attempt to subpoena patient information from the telehealth practice QueerDoc—but the fight may not be over.

SPOG may not technically be the mob or a terrorist organization but they sure do act like it.

If not gang, why gang shaped?
Mike Solan, SPD guild president, issued a statement openly questioning the validity of the votes for Katie Wilson.

Solan's embrace of the far right & SPD's history of aggression could make a dangerous situation if the national guard is sent to #Seattle.

Yup. My personal tolerance levels are absolutely couched in my being a cis straight white dude with immense amounts of privilege. It's easier for me to brush off stuff than it is for other people.
Just gotta say as a trans person who gets death threats couched as "jokes", I'm glad that the rules are being applied this way. When mods are left to make subjective decisions about who is joking and who isn't, threats against marginalized ppl go unmoderated and we are told they dont violate the TOS

My first formal remarks as mayor-elect: When I say, “This is your city,” I mean you have a right to be here, no matter your background. But I also mean that we have a collective responsibility to this place and each other.

#KubeCon T-shirt came with wristband calling me large and straight. True. Also RUDE!

Maybe he should “look it up, baby”?
Never heard of it! Definitely never did a keynote about it to Mel Conway who told me I did good. Never happened

Look if you're trans, you have to live. Do whatever you need to do to make it.

If you see me at #kubecon I have a stack of Nova stickers if you want a few.

Hey @bryanl.dev! Call out to your talk from a couple of years ago talking about being inspired by rails. Keynote at #KubeCon from Joseph Sandoval from Adobe.

I’m disappointed the CNCF keeps picking deep red states for #KubeCon. It’s unsafe for so many community members. Why not Canada or Mexico?

(Next 2 in North America are Salt Lake City again and New Orleans)

Excited to be back at #KubeCon. It’s been a minute. Fun to see all the new faces. I do miss how it was back in the day though.

SEATTLE!!!

We’ve now taken the lead by 91 votes! 🤯 This thing is certainly not over! Over 1,000 ballots have been challenged, so if you haven’t tracked your ballot yet get on it! Our trusty volunteers have been working hard to "cure" ballots so they count! We're so close!

I just called the offices of both @murray.senate.gov and @cantwell.senate.gov to express my disappointment in Dem leadership and to encourage them to call for @schumer.senate.gov to step down from leadership.

It is clear that Schumer is either disingenuous or incompetent. Either way he needs to go.
