Ologies with Alie Ward @ologies.bsky.social · Nov 10
Ohaay, it’s the lady who hosts that Ologies podcast and finally got back into her Bsky account.

Alie Ward here, excited to see so many science friends in one place. Add me/say hi so I can gently creep on your work.

I wear this yellow sweater too much.
Alie sitting at a wooden table with her body shoved into a curve of it. She is facing forward with arms like a Sphinx statue and wearing a golden yellow sweater with a neutral expression.

The @ologies.bsky.social episode with @maryroach.bsky.social is everything I could have dreamed of, intimate, eye-opening, hilarious, and SQUELCHY! I first read Spook because of @alieward.bsky.social’s rec over ten years ago so hearing them both chop it up together was fucking delightful. 🥲

A really enlightening discussion! Especially the idea that the US is *already* undergoing a revolution - it's just that it's a revolution from democracy to authoritarianism.

Storming the Bastille. Facing off with tanks. Canceling a streaming subscription.

Here's a breakdown of why they happen -- and how -- with the world's foremost expert in revolutions and social change. (And yes there are tips.)

In a sane country with competent leadership, the 50 highest-ranking Democrats would call a press conference to denounce what just happened as a threat to the republic and demand Trump's immediate impeachment and removal from office.

I don't know he could make his intentions more clear.

Stopped doomscrolling, took myself on a walk with the amazing new episode of @ologies.bsky.social and learnt about revolutions - and even for someone who's done a fair bit of activism, there were vital new things to learn. Feeling grateful for all the other people who give a fuck and make it count.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.
