Canaries in the coal mine. ๐Ÿ‘€

This is so obviously correct that I'm embarrassed for the firms that caved.

Harvard and Princeton announced that they are selling bonds, rather than kowtowing to Trumpโ€˜s blackmailing efforts. This is how you do it!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡ It will take multiple new administrations to resolve this loss in confidence. Decades!

Now THATโ€™S some #GoodTrouble. #HandsOff

Thousands, if not tens of thousands, #rallied and #marched in downtown #Portland, covering the riverfront and the Burnside Bridge, raising our voices together. This was the biggest of a dozen or more #protests in the area. Marchers were all over! #HandsOff #50501protest #Indivisible #PDX #resist

Huge participation all over PDX for the #HandsOff protests. Downtown felt like a springfest of energy and intent. It's validating seeing our crowds stand up. I left my phone at home, but should have brought to capture the messaging! โ˜ฎ๏ธ

She envisioned whole worlds in such detail she couldn't fit it all in the books! This sly answer suggests the question didn't dig very deep.

I am told Bluesky is an echo chamber.

โ€œโ€ฆcosmologists have been measuring the rate at which nothingness expands with increasing precision.โ€ Me too bro

I'm thinking about supporters of T who exclaimed that he said the things they were thinking, that they found a voice in him. And now, the people are at ease speaking like this.

It feels surreal to plan things right now. Casually attending a theater performance like it could be the last one.

Does this mean we can stop calling him the richest man in the world now? Please!

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.

"Russia, Russia, Russia"

Extraordinary outcomes!

Bot followers has been bonkers lately! Anyone else noticing this?

Besmirching the name of authentic doge rulers for weeks now.

Rolling Stone's post here is impossible to read on an iPad (all the ads keep jumping around as you read!) However, the point here is relevant and alarming! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡ "I know first-hand that women are the secret sauce of activism because even when faced with a powerful adversary, they donโ€™t back down โ€“ they double down." Shannon Watts shares 8 thought leaders, and starts with a poem (which I think of as an opening prayer)!

The farce is now on record, revealed for the cruel animus that it is. Judges are forcing Trumo's minions to acknowledge what they are serving up. If the records survive...

The fear two years ago was fire and overcrowding. Now it is just shut down. Yosemite is a national treasure. Soul crushing.

Today, the National Archives fell. Can you imagine if they just lit that national 3rd warehouse on fire because some of it's content included words they have deemed unfit for access? ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ #alexandrialibrary #cordobalibrary#bookburning #censorship

Looking for action? ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

We might yearn for paradise, temporal or spiritual. But to our descendents our habitable planet will look like an almost unimaginable paradise. No tech fantasy, no space station or controlled environment will ever compare. Fight for what we have. This is our heaven, and there can be no other.

Welcome to Bluesky, @petebuttigieg.bsky.social !!

Fascinating! Geopolitics irl!

๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ๐Ÿšฉ Vance in line of succession "Actuarial realities do not favor an aging leader with a declining grasp on policy. But favors the 30- and 40-somethings laying the foundation for the post-democratic order. ...They are in power, with money, AI, and a plan." www.notesfromthecircus.com/p/the-plot-a...

This is truly why we fight the good fight. We cannot be surprised by their intent, preservation and reservation of power.

This article lays it out plainly. There's nothing to repeal. Costco doesn't have a DEI program. It doesn't have a diversity policy. It simply doesn't use discriminatory hiring practices. These AGs are in hysterics bcuz Costco refuses to segregate its business.

There is no equal, opposite single action that reverses whatโ€™s happening. Wish there were! But that emotional release isnโ€™t coming as quickly and cleanly as all that. No shortcuts through what weโ€™re going through. Sorry about this

Listen, we were all young and stupid once. You canโ€™t judge someone for the thoughtless and provocative posts they made all the way back in September and December of 2024. It was a different time back then.

What's come as a shock - to a lot of Irish ppl - in recent yrs is the realisation that we were never looking at 'wild' Irish landscapes but denuded deserts.

@cwarzel.bsky.social is tapped into the tech side of Tv2.0. Pay attention!

๐Ÿ‘‡ Keys to the financial system. This thread has basic metrics you can follow along with.

This is the way.

Finding the perfect mushroom composition. This one was taken last October.

A lot of fellow citizens being reminded that we've "had" a concentration camp in use for 23 years now. Guantanamo Bay prison was built out Jan 2002, just 4 months after 9/11.

i'm preaching to the choir here on a platform that isn't X but this from @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social (which i think is largely correct) is also a very concise reason why people opposed to Trump/Musk's political project probably ought not to use X. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/26/o...

This is the surreal truth. Reading the daily EOs yet feeling queasy with the casual use of soft words by the media.
