First of all, I hope "Saddest Parade in History" becomes a textbook phrase.

And I love this: "[No Kings Day is] less a remembrance of the past than a promise regarding the future."

Almost no one showed up to Donald Trump’s surprisingly timid, depressing, and generally lackluster birthday party in Washington, but protests against him were bursting at the seams across the globe.

If bitcoin is freedom money then it must be undergirded by the rule of law that safeguards those freedoms. Bitcoin community needs to be fully and unequivocally behind the release of Garcia. With help from Chat - how to get this through?! Please!?

Someone in the breathtaking (indeed, sacred) Cory Booker live chat just wrote "​​I yield for a question while retaining the floor is how I’m answering all my child’s questions from now on" and I'm all in.

Cory Booker is now in his *third hour* on the Senate floor—still speaking with heart, fire, and fierce conviction.
He’s not just holding the floor—he’s holding the line for democracy.
This is what moral courage looks like.
Keep going, Senator.
We see you.
We stand with you.✊🏽💙

I'm not sure how much Trump understands about economics, but Yanis Varoufakis made a pretty compelling case that in a perfect scanario where tariffs are successful and manufacturing comes roaring back to the US, the billionaires are fucked; if they're not, the working class is fucked. Predictions?

I haven't been on BlueSky much and have heard it's become quite intense. Not sure if that's true, but I thought I'd post this here in case anyone needed a dose of stand-up-and-cheer inspiration. I cannot wait to see this. ❤️

@troycross.bsky.social @gladstein.bsky.social So many narratives around BTC hardening in the wake of the coming admin. I don't blame them, but people I read, learn from, and deeply respect seem to have a lot of opinions without doing the deep dive. Is there a way to engage without social media muck?

I'm pretty new here but have a general q: how do we keep this platform from becoming another echo chamber? How do we create the conditions for civil discourse and curiosity, welcoming people who offer viewpoints — in good faith —  that stray from the general "consensus"?
