Alright! What is Earthquake Twitter now Bluesky without Dr. Lucy Jones?
A M3.9 in North Hollywood. Too small to definitively assign to any fault, but the closest is the Hollywood fault. Yawn. Nothing much to say about an earthquake in earthquake country. I am in Boston and am heading back to sleep.

Anyway, those are my thoughts. You can choose to dress in certain ways to elicit certain reactions (e.g., perform respectability), but real respect is about more meaningful actions. Important to not conflate how you choose to dress with how you judge others. Dress respectability is Victorian ethics.

a cloture vote for the way-harder-to-undo-than-an-executive-order federal anti-trans sports ban is now set for monday. that means there's more time to make calls.
no on cloture means it doesn't get a vote. the GOP needs 7 dems to advance it.
please call. there is *so* much evil downstream of this.

This is was a great story about how one man took on his KKK infested town and won.
In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

When going out to protest, the goal shouldn’t be to get arrested. Do not run yourself into arrests. Do not just hand yourself over to the state.

Ok, I'm doing a version of this thread for 🧪 who are new to political conditions where info security is a safety issue:

2. Be weary of calls to advertise acts of subversion
3. Don't live post resistance meetings

This is my “daughter of a Black Panther breakfast program volunteer” coming out but anyone who tells you that you have to be public about all your resistance activity should immediately be under suspicion for being an op, or being under the influence of an op
