Twitter/X is a dangerous propaganda site. It's beyond me why anyone is still there. I had deleted all my tweets and locked my account... but deleted it yesterday. Please leave Twitter, everyone.

State of social media in my IRL circle:
Facebook friends more vocal about politics and pushing back when their "friends" who are supporters of current administration post in their replies.
IRL friends joining Bluesky and closing or planning to close other accounts.
There's momentum here. LFG.

Though the Justice Dept has deleted information about its Jan 6 prosecutions from its website, a federal judge has issued an order listing and chronicling all of the cases and prison terms

Spent a chunk of this morning at our local library. Not the first time, but really soaked up the “third space” and all the bonus things besides all the books and other media….extensive art gallery, used bookstore, Lunar New Year Lego display (AMAZING). So lucky to have this.
