Named a shaper of science herself, Dr. Prescod-Weinstein reminds us that Black people have practiced and shaped science even before we were awarded for it and as our knowledge was exploited during enslavement. Who is a Black shaper of science in your family or local community? #BlackMagicalHistory

Rep Amos is on FIRE about the GOP Tax Scam. "This is a betrayal. Full stop. This is not some social policy experiment. Real people will suffer. It is a betrayal of our seniors. It's a betrayal of our families. It is a betrayal of the middle class."

Do not mess with librarians. They let complete strangers borrow their books. For a living. Even the hardcovers. They are so much stronger than you know.

I don’t know who needs to hear this today but banning books is never the answer. Never once, in history, have the people who were banning or burning books been the good guys. Never even once.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

Since the government isn’t allowed to tell us anymore, it’s on us to spread the word. Alternative channels, direct action, and good old-fashioned human connection—because silence isn’t an option.

If TikTok was a "national security threat," what do we call Musk gaining access to U.S. government payments, controlling social media, satellites, and AI? The silence from Congress is deafening. This isn’t about security—it’s about power. Protect your data, diversify, and pay attention.

Do you feel exhausted? Are you tired? Then rest. Recover. Realise that this is exactly what they want. Bombard decent good people with hate, evil, corruption and lies. Whilst masquerading as moral authority “Christians” of course. Realise what they are doing. Then adapt. Adaptation is the key

I have a suggestion for you. In times of trouble and strife, there is therapeutic benefit in being among trees and in physical contact with them. So if you can, go hug a tree today, the bigger the better. This huge old chinkapin oak is known as The Great God Tree.

Good morning Bluesky, It’s Friday and I want all of you to do something nice for yourself this weekend. Doesn’t matter how small the thing is. Also, say something nice to a stranger. The smallest glimmer of light in times of darkness can be the difference between life & death for someone. 🤍
