Must read in the NYTimes today, Op-Ed by former Judge J. Michael Luttig who served on the U.S. Court of Appeals from 1991 to 2006. "It’s Trump vs. the Courts, and It Won’t End Well for Trump." Sure hope he's right! www.nytimes.com/2025/03/23/o...

It's time for the #NCAA to give a Division 3 basketball tourney slot to the winner of the Inland Sports League (ISL) college championship game. Maybe next year? Love #Bricklyn University's BRU Crew!

Get your town off x and moved to Bluesky, Boston has a webinar you can share. I'm going to email this to my town's economic development manager with the argument you can get more genuine engagement with locals via Bluesky tools. X is like pissing into a void at this point.

1/ What seemed like an outlandish fantasy just a few weeks ago — the transformation of #Bricklyn, VT from an independent #LEGO realm into a French overseas territory — has taken a serious turn as officials from both Bricklyn & France have been meeting. #Outre-mer bricklynvt.com/2025/02/23/h...

Extraordinary story the Wall Street Journal. X is threatening advertisers that if they don’t spend more, Elon Musk will use his influence in government to block company mergers. That’s extortion.

A group of 70 rabbis, clergy and liberal Jewish groups are calling on New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Gov. Kathy Hochul to resist President Donald Trump’s mass deportation orders, drawing a parallel to the biblical story of King Pharaoh’s decree to kill Hebrew boys in ancient Egypt.

With online bullying by Musk & others on X increasing -- as this Washington Post news story spells out -- isn't it overdue for #Vermont state agencies to stop using X. For info on a modest step the VT Agency of Digital Services could take see my pinned post. #vtpoli

Another excellent, chilling account of what is happening today in our country as Musk, with the cooperation of Trump, act to take control of virtually all levers of power.
