Law enforcement exercising their official duties in public do not have a reasonable expectation of privacy. This includes ICE agents. As long as you are not interfering with their duties, you generally have a right to record them on duty.

Can someone explain lists on bluesky? I made some— should I ask people if they want to be on them? What’s the etiquette?

Draw your own conclusions, but Donald Trump is not behaving like a leader who expects democratic accountability for himself or his party next year or in 2028.

Nazi salutes right out of the gate. There is no saying the quiet part out loud anymore because there is no quiet part anymore…

On the upside falling flat on my face and skinning my knee justified all the cranky feelings I had before I tripped.

TikTok and free health care? We really got it all here in Canada

Grade one kid: Jesus will come back to help us but if we mess it up after that then God is done with us forever.

Hard to overstate just how much of the tech industry’s horrifically dystopian present grew right out of its transparently misogynistic past

waaaaay too many people in the middle imo

I’m a scientist who studies how climate change impacts our lives and the places we love. Most of us are worried, but many feel stuck on what to do. If that's the way you feel, check out this list below! We can’t fix it alone, but I know we can together. 💚

After I shared this article with a guy his response was that he’d talked to a few women in AI which I guess was his counter argument that tech culture can’t be that toxic? But yeah, in the last 40 years the percentage of women in tech has declined.

Great read on college attendance and career choices.

Fuck Adrian Dittmann too

Me “when you can’t hear me could you say “were you talking to me?” instead of “did you say something important?” My mother: “what’s the difference?”

She’s become very hard of hearing and we already have a difficult relationship so this year it’s extra hard not to yell at my mom.

Me, a public health person, just sitting over here reflecting on the fact that the US has experienced a 7% increase in infant mortality post-Dobbs. Like, do you realize what that says about this society from an ethical perspective? That we made policy choices that caused this? #PHEthx

Some mornings I wake up and wonder — why am I feeling anxious? Then I remember, oh right, the state of the world!

I just spent five minutes signing up for an account for a newspaper I never read just to comment that a word in their headline is used incorrectly.

Wtf was that Connections?!

Homeboy stopped the wrong lady (H/T @agirlhasnopres.bsky.social )
