your political platform can’t just be against something, you have to be FOR something, and the thing you’re FOR has to be BETTER than the thing that IS

hope this helps

@drrachelbarr.bsky.social listening to your book 'How to Make Your Brain Your Best Friend'; it is beautiful, funny, engaging, and thoughtful. Just hit part where you share about your mom, and can hear the tears in your voice. You are much stronger than me. Thank you for sharing your heart and wisdom

I got @jesszafarris.bsky.social’s new book and I need to tell you it’s making my word nerd heart so happy. Etymology is my jam, probably because of all the spelling bees.

On this Esther Day (and everyday) remember to tell those you care about that you love them. Normalize sharing platonic and familial love.

I love you all (except for the nazis and fascists, douches, they get punched), go out and be better humans, and share some love

This is your reminder for those keeping score at home, the Republican Party in the US is now a nazi party run by fascists, authoritarians, and theocrats. The Democrat Party is now the new Republican Party, and both parties serve, and are controlled by oligarchs

This has long been the case and was absolutely instrumental in normalising the regime. It is antithetical to journalism itself to be that complacent towards authoritarianism. I don’t know what redeeming prospect there can be so far down the line.

I carried you
You got a divorce
So I married you
You fell off a cliff
So I buried you

my favorite aspect of how ANDOR ends is how the villains do suffer, but not at the hands of the protagonists, because fascism eats its own even while it has the upper hand

yes, ChatGPT is in schools; there are K-12 school districts and DOEs entering into AI contracts, too. so rather than panicking over the death of academia as a foregone conclusion—particularly when LLMs are frequently wrong—why don't we talk about the climate costs of AI?

One estimate found that a single ChatGPT search uses 10 times the energy of a normal Google search.

Reminder: If you allow the government to ignore someone else's due process rights, (especially those not in your "in group" and even those deemed "criminals") then you have given up your right to due process.

Well, time to add another book to my “current reads” on @thestorygraph.com! Just another 13 hours 😅

@maklelan.bsky.social - as an ex-Catholic (now pagan) who studied theology with seminarians at a Lasallian university & taught religious education, I REALLY value your insights! I can’t wait to read!

I don't use "impeachment" lightly. Aside from Trump, Marco Rubio **PIPED UP** to endorse flouting a court order, and said the only person who can make foreign policy is the president, which is incorrect in more ways than he can count. High crimes, dereliction of duty, constitutionally illiterate.
Absolutely not an exaggeration. High crimes and misdemeanors committed and endorsed in the Oval Office on live television.
The president is conducting a press event with the primary purpose of flouting the decisions of the courts and the letter and spirit of U.S. law. It is a press event to celebrate the Constitutional crisis and serial violation of human rights he has set in motion.

The lessons were already learned, that’s how the 1949 GCs came to be. But we have carved exemption after exemption and we have politicised to the point of meaninglessness. What to do? even speaking up gets you detained, worldwide.
