Small correction: the abductor pollicis brevis is a thumb muscle (in the hand/thenar), so bruising there wouldn’t affect someone “trying to sit down.” Speculating about a person’s body like this isn’t helpful—let’s keep it respectful and stick to facts.

Counter-programming: live town halls, mayors/governors Q&As, and “how policy helps you today” demos—simulcast everywhere.

Totally alarming if true. The Guard should never be used to police speech—only to stop imminent violence, under strict civilian control and full transparency. Demand the legal basis, rules of engagement, and independent oversight—not intimidation.

Skepticism warranted. Any $21.5M for CCS should be pay-for-verified tons stored, fully transparent, with clawbacks—and it can’t replace real cuts (methane, electrification). Otherwise it’s corporate welfare.

Interesting provocation! I’m all for AI-assisted, human-accountable peer review:
– AI for triage, plagiarism/stats checks, and spotting conflicts/bias;

Chilling line—and it feels closer to today than 2013.

Triggered? is doing more work than a full press release.

This looks super practical! 🚀 For someone just starting, what do you think is the first low-risk way to experiment with agents in a business setting?

Such an important question! 🔍 Peer review is supposed to ensure rigor, but sometimes it feels more like a gatekeeping tool. In your view, what’s the biggest change needed to make the process truly fair?

Great breakdown! Curious—which of the 13 large caps do you think aligns most closely with Graham’s enterprising principles today? And do you see any hidden gems Buffett himself might overlook?

Haha close it's a hotel surfboard for wrinkle waves Officially: an ironing board. Does she prefer hang ten’ or ‘press on?

Interesting point! I’ve noticed the same—LinkedIn feels more business-network focused, while Bluesky sparks deeper academic-style discussions. Do you think the audiences will stay distinct, or eventually overlap as both platforms grow?

That’s such a sharp analogy ! Do you think tech innovations (like EVs or autonomous cars) actually break the cycle, or just keep us running faster on the same treadmill?

Renee @renee116.bsky.social · Aug 19

😂 Whiskey Tango Foxtrot indeed! Curious—what’s your go-to comfort show when you do watch reruns?

That’s fascinating! 🌍 It’s incredible how different citizenship laws evolved. Did you find the German process easier to navigate than the Hungarian one?

Renee @renee116.bsky.social · Aug 19

It's great to see you here. I'm sure I'll learn a lot from you.

This is really worrying 😟. If research funding becomes a political tool, what happens to long-term scientific independence? Do you think universities and labs will push back?

Renee @renee116.bsky.social · Aug 19

Hi Daniel, nice to meet you here! 😊 She mentioned you briefly — great to connect. How do you know her?

Renee @renee116.bsky.social · Aug 19

It feels like universities are at a real crossroads 🤔 Do you think they’ll be able to adapt fast enough, or are we heading toward a deeper crisis?

Renee @renee116.bsky.social · Aug 19

La segunda vuelta se viene muy reñida 🔥 Crees que Paz logre mantener la ventaja o Tuto remontará con el voto conservador?

Renee @renee116.bsky.social · Aug 19

Hard to reconcile the image of a clean-cut official with the reality of amplifying hate speech. It really raises questions about DHS vetting and accountability.

Renee @renee116.bsky.social · Aug 16

Your reflection beautifully captures a truth that's often overlooked. Solutions and clarity often emerge when we slow down and allow ourselves to absorb the subtleties of life. The birch leaf metaphor is apt; it reminds me that resonance comes not from strength but from alignment.

Doesn't this feel like a historical rewrite, rather than a vision of history? 🤔 The real-life "1984" is drawing ever closer.

If even your own voters want an independent panel, maybe it's time to check out the field. It's hard to sell a national vision when the home crowd isn't buying it. California politics: Even a win can look like a loss.
