Superb post from @alisongopnik.bsky.social. Although I grew up (in the UK) with the story being about Nail Soup. simons.berkeley.edu/news/stone-s...

On cause on cause mais j’en oublie de dire le plus important : Merci Wikipédia. Merci les bénévoles qui contribuent et organisent, dans des conditions pas toujours faciles. Tout ça est précieux. Wikipédia est un bien collectif, évidemment perfectible, qu’il nous faut aimer et défendre.

Nous faisons désormais face à une ingérence et des pressions absolument inédites contre #Wikipédia en français, par @lepoint.fr et des personnes qui ne tolèrent pas que Wikipédia ne soit pas leur CV ou un espace de communication à leur disposition. #presse #médias #journalisme

the occupation and the settlers are bent on punishing masafer yarra, perhaps because of basel adra’s dcumentary, “no other land,” being so internationally celebrated. if it wins an oscar, will they just fully ethnically cleanse and level its villages? how do we help the west bank?

The starting pistol has now been fired on the race for the first science fiction writer to work the phrase "vegetative electron microscopy" into a book in a way that makes scientific and plot sense. For bonus points have your use of the phrase become the accepted scientific meaning within 2 decades.

I recorded I quick video explaining a broader strategy for #TeslaTakedown, why Elon Musk and his empire are so vulnerable, and how attacking Tesla can get dramatic results. If this video helps you see the opportunity to hit back, please share it with as many people as you can! youtu.be/L-Imw_s1aaI

Just got out of jail. Only forty four left to go to catch John Lewis’s record. Remember - peaceful civil disobedience. Don’t comply in advance.

I'm normally cynical about politicians but this is statesmanship. It is affirming republican civic virtue. Not irony-poisoned snark, not focus-grouped talking points. The oath to the Constitution matters, and it's time to speak plainly and earnestly about how our fundamental principles are at stake.

Excellent long read in the @londonreview.bsky.social. The 3 visions of Hamas: the religious-nationalist political movement; the useful terror group for Israeli political & security elites; and the Israeli/Western "example of primordial Middle Eastern savagery." www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Great essay not just on #takedowntesla but how it's working and how it exemplifies direct action (Waging Nonviolence is always worth checking out):
