“Musk has never once asked to see his child...never asked for photos of their child or even checked in on his son’s wellbeing."... “When their son was just two months old, Musk texted St. Clair, ‘I want to knock you up again.’” via @taylorlorenz.bsky.social www.usermag.co/p/scoop-ashl...

Protests are taking place all over the country tonight against cuts to vital federal services. Here in Washington, people are marching to SpaceX’s offices demanding Musk be ousted from the government.

Highly recommend following this YouTuber @ydubs.bsky.social who made a really excellent video on why there’s no alt-left pipeline youtu.be/y8wD2d9uKg4?...

This video kicks ass: youtu.be/o2jzKo1RqWU?...

a good post, but I also recommend quitting absolutely everything for a little while and and then seeing how much information you still get regardless of trying to not know anything. it will be a lot, probably still more than you want or need to know! linksiwouldgchatyou.substack.com/p/how-to-sta...

Tesla's stock is ridiculously overvalued, and even a modest consumer boycott could tank the company, which accounts for the majority of Elon Musk's wealth. The divestment movement weakened apartheid South Africa. Let's do that again. slate.com/business/202...

@queentiwa.bsky.social This is a great video to watch. Ford has been cutting healthcare and education so that he can make business deals with his rich friends. This needs to stop. youtu.be/-fEz_cNYnj8?...

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

Follow up question for #nonfiction readers, are there any good recommendations out there for topics relating to Canada? I see so many good American-centric ones and while I think there is a lot of overlap, I would love to get some focusing on things like Canadian politics and history 👀 #booksky

I had 1 or 2 of these on my list already but genuinely added all of the others to my TBR as well 😂

I want to finally get into some nonfiction and I have an ever growing list, but to those who read nonfiction regularly, do you have any advice or personal methods on how to engage with these books in a meaningful way? #booksky #nonfiction

Reading is political. Reading has always been political. Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground. #booksky

I wrote this on one of the darkest days of my life. It gave me an anchor to hold onto.

Beginning with the 1st term of #notmypresident, I have been involved in book projects that have celebrated the border and the important role immigrants play in our communities. All of them push back against the doubt, fear and hate that are weaponized by those craving power. Let me share them. 1/

My new book, Everything Is Tuberculosis, explores the history of our deadliest infectious disease. It's also about our horrifying present: TB still kills kills over a million people per year, even though it's been curable since the 1950s. Signed copies can be ordered at everythingistb.com

The most punk thing you can be nowadays is an optimist

"I must not fear, fear is the mind-killer" is a very useful mantra to mentally loop especially if you set it to a techno beat
