First they came for the subeditors,
replacing them with autocorrect.

Then they came for the authors,
replacing them with AI algorithms.

Then they came for the librarians,
and there was no one left
to tell the difference.

Today, I voted no on the bill that included funding for ICE. The events taking place in Minneapolis represent a cultural moment — where people across the political spectrum saw, with their own eyes, U.S. citizens abused, threatened, and gunned down. Our fundamental rights as Americans, trampled.

Brilliant launch tonight of @rutherglen900.bsky.social at Rutherglen Town Hall. Huge thanks to @southlanarkshire.gov.uk & Clyde Gateway for funding these spectacular celebrations! Even managed to meet Dougie the Pigeon, Cllr Margaret Cowie & @michaelshanksmp.co.uk

Whenever I look at something, my next step is often to mute or block it - especially if I’m interested, & as a result, the Algorithm doesn’t know WHAT to do with me.

If you feel like your #mentalhealth is low, take a break from #socialmedia. Go for a walk, call someone you love, help someone else.
I don't really love that my social media feeds are 100% political now. Because it's affecting my mental health in a serious way. I want to train my algorithm to show me cute videos of animals and other wholesome things, without losing my ability to know what's happening too. Ugh. I need escape😭

Just joined another social media app that I'm seeing a lot of chatter online about with peeps apparently jumping ship from TikTok. Being a social media user since the Myspace days, here I go again, lol (I miss pre-M*sk Twitter)

Mutial sharing, reciprocity of posts is the answer to censorship, off and on social media.

I’ve been enjoying the beauty of deep reading. Social media is pumping us with cheap dopamine - to the point where many people can’t fully immerse themselves in a book. If you haven’t read in a while, I really encourage you to pit down the phone and pick up a book

Minnesota’s justice system will have the last word.

Especially Twitter. Ugh. 🙄
I am deeply, deeply frustrated by the inability or unwillingness of a large chunk of the population to boycott fascist industries, even down to things they get for free, like social media

Twitter, Facebook, and now TikTok should be cratering into bankruptcy

If anyone was wondering what the people’s response to an ICE occupation looks like, today was the answer. Thousands of Minnesotans shut down work, school, shops, and marched because federal violence won’t be tolerated. (1/2)

Sending solidarity to everyone in Minnesota from Scotland with love. 💙
As a lifelong trade unionist, all solidarity with Minneapolis.

The dance party I saw online at the Prince mural would have warmed them up.

“However, the ByteDance-controlled global TikTok entity will continue to manage e-commerce, advertising and marketing on the new US platform.”

So all the financial data and potential for “undue influence” remains the same.

Be wary…

Google is becoming absolute rubbish. I have to scroll and click to the second page before I stop seeing junk AI summaries and sponsored results. 🙄

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

🎤The Rutherglen Schools' Choir are gearing up to "Sing it Loud" at the R900 launch event in Jan. Pupils from 10 schools are coming together to sing the Song of Rutherglen, written by Fraser Bruce. The choir sounded amazing at their first rehearsal last week! 🎶

Twenty years in Scotland & I still have the same expectations for my @forduk.bsky.social vehicle as I when I lived in Michigan. 🤷‍♀️

The reality: we left @arnoldclark.bsky.social as the standard was so low, it lost the franchise. Now over to @evanshalshaw.bsky.social for a 7-week wait for diagnostics.

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

If you see this, can you respond in some way? Bluesky doesn’t seem to be Blueskying for me…?
