@thedemocraticparty.bsky.social is fighting back!

I haven’t been clear on whether Elon’s x.ai has access to my tax info. So I asked the source, grok. Grok says it can’t access my tax returns, but DODGE can.

At last a plan. Saying screw Trump doesn’t get us anywhere. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

Today's result with @kingarthurbaking.bsky.social organic bread flour. Added a bit of gluten and seeds. Whole wheat starter. Cold oven start. Soaked the lid of my clay baker for 20 minutes. Baked for 1h15m at 450F. I live at 7,500 feet. #baking #cooking #bread

Happy to see @kingarthurbaking.bsky.social here. Where’s Bob?

👋🏼 new to 🦋! I cover rural issues in Northern Colorado for KUNC. From climate environment and energy to ag, housing, ed, health and culture. Whew! That’s a lot! Also: Mom. Artist. Friend. Runner. Dancer. Amateur naturalist. Bread baker. Nerd.

A federal judge has called a 4pm conference in the emergency lawsuit brought by nonprofit groups to halt President Trump's federal aid freeze:

At least one Senator is speaking up.

Can anyone explain to me what the function of the Democratic Party is today and how it is serving that function? Are they still around? If so, is there any evidence of that?

Thanks to us, banks think 90 cents to the dollar is the best they are going to get for their X loans. www.perplexity.ai/page/banks-s...

Great elaboration on this point. Firehose of Falsehoods is a well known propaganda technique. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Great piece on PK leaving NYT. He posted it to substack. www.cjr.org/analysis/pau...

More on why arguing data with MAGA doesn’t work. Telling stories does. "On the other hand, surprising individual cases have a powerful impact and are a more effective tool for teaching psychology because the incongruity must be resolved and embedded in a causal story.” Kahneman, Daniel.

In Agile project management a primary goal is to create self-organizing teams. Is that what we have here on #BlueSky?

Yesterday, as I announced my run for Governor of Colorado, I joined @kylec.bsky.social to discuss how we will focus on listening to all Colordans, showing up, and delivery results—together. Watch here —> youtu.be/w9wraZIVC9Y

More on the importance of critical thinking: the answer to an easy question (How do I feel about it?) serves as an answer to a much harder question (What do I think about it?). Kahneman, Daniel. Thinking_Fast_and_Slow_-_ (p. 139). Kindle Edition.

Fox to Trump voters: The world in our heads is not a precise replica of reality; our expectations about the frequency of events are distorted by the prevalence and emotional intensity of the messages to which we are exposed. Kahneman, Daniel. Thinking_Fast_and_Slow_-_ (p. 138).

Just reminding myself that not all of 2024 was bad. My house is on the other side of the pyramid mountain top.

My thanks to all who helped me gain 2.5K followers over the past few days. I have a big backlog of follow backs, so please be patient as I work through the list. I block porn, “fashion”, crypto, scams, and MAGA. Otherwise you are good. I prefer original work to reposts.

My wife and I like it here.

Sorta guessed this is where he could end up: paulkrugman.substack.com?r=1i3s7b&utm...

Holidays are a time for sharing.

For 2025, think about how you can improve your community by taking time say from the keyboard and serving. Gift link www.nytimes.com/2024/12/24/o...

I’d like to thank our little town for throwing a big party on our riverwalk yesterday on my birthday. Dems had a booth, MAGA didn’t.

No surprise. The GOP is targeting Social Security. socialsecurityworks.org/2024/12/18/d...

A red sky goodnight to all blueskyers

So how do we oppose this? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

Another #colorado issue headed to the Supreme Court. It’s oil vs environment with national significance. Earlier the justices kept Trump on the #colorado ballot. This time they could gut the “magna carta” of environmental law. www.aspenpublicradio.org/environment/...

Good night

#colorado still thinks Trump is disqualified coloradonewsline.com/2024/12/12/j...

I’m starting to think—I don’t want to go out on a limb prejudging here, so I’m just tossing this out for consideration—that Trump is full of shit.

Dallas surveys his wintery domain. Field mice are safely in hibernation.

I did it! If you want to join this pack just repost it and leave a comment go.bsky.app/LPHp8jG

This strikes me as a bit like mcCarthyism…..

The mail from our small mountain town goes over several Rocky Mountain passes to Denver for sorting. It’s five hour drive in good weather. This is supposed to be more efficient than sorting locally. Yesterday my wife stood in line for 3 hours to pick up one package. Anyone else having USPS issues?

Few years ago I read Atomic Habits book and it changed a lot in my habits for the better. Today I completed an AI course, made some art, did all my work at work and did some chores at home. Mostly thanks to habit stacking.

This is the most-read piece on @theatlantic.com. It should be the most-read piece. You should all read it, even though it may make you sad. Here’s a gift link so you can read it. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
