It's me?

Damn right!

🤯 "This 'brain on a dish' takes the form of two small, white blobs on a pedestal at the gallery. The blobs are a cluster of neurons that mimic in a very basic way the structure and development of a human brain..." www.npr.org/2025/04/13/n...

Interesting, necessary reading. www.newyorker.com/news/the-wee...

My word of advice for the evening is- Take a look at the block lists you are using & have a little scan who they’re blocking. If you notice more than a handful of decent people you know are alright, caught by the filter, consider leaving that list & manually pruning. You’ll have a better BSky.

The focus has been on the Texas measles outbreak here in the U.S. (for obvious reasons), but somehow I had no idea that there's an even bigger outbreak also happening in Canada! C'mon, humans, what are we doing? Vaccines should be one of our favorite things! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Reading this will be good for you.

These are some truly depraved bastards.

A glorious day to celebrate. April 9, 1865. The US defeated the army of the traitor slavers. Don’t let them keep lying about it. It was slavery. They proudly said it at the time. It was slavery. Good riddance.

With everything looking down, why not look up for a moment? This is, quite seriously, one of the most gorgeous astronomical images I have ever seen. And I've seen a *lot*. badastronomy.beehiiv.com/p/an-utterly... 🔭 🧪

Ugh. I've heard more about Putin-promoting Ovechkin today than the fight for democracy. Which is, perhaps, reflective of why we're in this mess. 🤢 P.S. Ukraine would like a word...

This is funny. And the serious problem with the NYT is it misinforms about reality. Not with inaccuracy so much as emphasis, perspective, and framing. That makes it a bad news source. Go to the Guardian, or Wired, or others/ independent sources. You don't need the NYT or LA Times, or WaPo.

Three million Americans marched today. Here’s why we wrote about one American who didn’t.

So basically, as usual, shame on @washingtonpost.com, @nytimes.com, and others on their pathetic, intentional lack of coverage on the protests. NBD, just a historic, massive mobilization across the entire country. Nothing newsworthy here, right? Shame. #protests #HandsOff

We can surrender to the forces of autocracy, bigotry, xenophobia, and minoritarian rule. Or we can organize the pro-democracy majority to reclaim its power. We choose to organize: indivisible.org/groups

What a day. What a country! 💪

Enormous turnout for the flagship Hands Off rally in DC. Tons of people packing into the National Mall this afternoon against Trump and Musk.

Retweeting this 1000x.

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!! This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference. It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference. #50501movement

Head over to @indivisible.org's feed to see images from the absolutely MASSIVE #HandsOff movement today. It was amazing to join them in DC!

Wow... I made it to 200 followers! It took 10+ years on the bad place for that to happen. Shocking, but thanks -- this place is groovy! 🙃

Remember to be kind to everyone you meet today and to listen to at least 3 CDs. If you can't listen to them in their entirety don't stress yourself out. A few songs from each is fine

Found myself inexplicably whistling the Price is Right Yodeler song... 🤔

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.
