Work on clean energy, (very) amateur pianist, read too many novels Here for alternative to legacy media -- which is getting worse every damn day. And for the community in time of crisis.

@jmc-author.bsky.social sadly, I think that's "had" a red line. Although we can always hope.

These students are braver than so many adults multiple times their age with far less to lose

I know. And it's a good point that while the MSM seems so rotted as to be hopeless, it employs many outstanding journalists whom we rely on right now for new about what's going on

I agree, and a great opporunity to remind everyone to #BoycottAmazon. It's surprisingly do-able. Given the ownership of the MSM media, though; we can't wait for them or expect they'll turn around. We need to create our own people-controlled media channels.

I generally agree, @mariablack.bsky.social. A dynamic that amazed me during the last election was how many of my generally progressive friends and family complained about Biden. Correcting that record is part of our work. What do you point to to make the case that he was the best POTUS in a century?

me too! It took me 6 months to cancel Amazon Prime. I'm ashamed it took me so long. Social media supports a lot of talk, and less action. That said, I think we could do more work here on Bluesky on an Amazon boycott -- and maybe that's inspiration for me to get off my a** and work on it.
