The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

It is quite remarkable how so many men understand perfectly well what personal space means when they’re queuing with other men but somehow magically forget when they’re queuing with women. Yes I am on public transport again.

This is not surprising. Writing drafts help me formulate and articulate my thoughts and make my writing better. I also find that taking notes help me remember things, so if I’m simply given the PowerPoint, I don’t remember the details as well.

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of two facts: 1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it. Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

I have been re-reading the Bachman Books by @stephenking.bsky.social . All of the stories in this series feel dystopian. I have owned this book for decades and read it many times. But reading it this year, turning to this page, and seeing the date and tagline. . . . #booksky

Between Greta Thunberg and her fellow activists being kidnapped by Israel and Trump turning LA into his personal war zone, I hope people realise that protest, no matter how peaceful, will always be met with violence by dying empires.

Rare audio. Celia Black, 1974 - 114 years old, remembering the slave fields. Her voice isn't ancient history — it's a reminder we're only a generation removed from this. Think you know American history? You don't. 🧠ERASED reveals what they buried. 📖Read it. Share it: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

Don’t like gay marriage? Don’t get married to the same sex. Don’t like gender-affirming care? Don’t have any. Don’t like Planned Parenthood? Don’t go there. Don’t like abortion? Don’t get one. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean others shouldn’t be able to it.

Regular reminder that many people can’t leave, and they’re often the ones in the most danger. Disabled, autistic, trans, marginalized, unhoused or living in poverty? It will be nearly impossible to flee fascism. People with privilege need to remember that and fight for all

I have relatives in the medical profession who tell stories of going to conferences and white peers clutching their bags when they enter the lift, of going into work and the staff asking if they live in mudhuts. That’s the level of what we are often dealing with here. The stories would shock you.

Shout out to the disabled community for always showing up, always being on the right side of history and justice, always willing to put their bodies on the line, all for the cause of making sure everyone has the basic dignity of health care.

The Settlers documentary didn’t reveal anything new - it simply laid bare what mainstream media has ignored for too long. Now our government wants to do a trade deal with this regime? It’s disgraceful. 1/2

One of the things I recently realized with my particular flavor of autism is it has made me hypervigilant about people's words/expressions/body language/etc. This would probably be great except I know for a fact I cannot trust my brain to correctly interpret any of it

Feels like the moment MeToo went from discussing sexual assault and harassment by celebrities to examining these same abuses by family and friends, we saw an acceleration of the argument that “society gives boys nothing”. An orchestrated backlash by abusers who saw that their unmasking was coming.

I hope everyone knows that it's very easy for any social content platform, including Bluesky, to be a misery machine and that if you aren't intentional about it, they will absolutely decrease the positive impact you have on the world while making you less happy.
