On this Day of Remembrance, we honor the 120,000 Japanese Americans unjustly imprisoned during WWII because of their heritage. Their resilience remind us to never forget the lessons of history. We will continue to fight for justice, equality, and civil rights for all.

When anyone, anywhere, can point to a published article from a predatory journal or even a preprint and say it backs their claims, we’re in real trouble. We desperately need to make “peer-reviewed” actually mean something again. 🧪 #AcademicSky #ScientificPublishing

I'm not saying to want to upvote all inquiries about the Gulf of Mexico, but it's better than doomscrolling support.google.com/maps/search?...

Thomson Reuters has won the first major AI copyright case in the US. The decision has big implications for the battle between generative AI companies and rightsholders.

Now that Google Maps has “officially” re-named the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America, I’m going to report this error using to instructions Google itself offers for doing so. (See second picture, attached) I hope you all will too! @katiecouric.bsky.social @jerilryan.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social

Has someone writer a primer on how to best use social media while under fascism? In general. Just curious!!

Big debate: What's funnier—"pigs in a blanket" or "tater tots"? "pigs" has the famous "k" sound, but the tots have the alliteration. What say you? #5amwritersclub #writinglife

For whatever stupid political reasons, the Trump administration took down information about avian flu transmission from cats to people (and vice versa). There are 74M cats in the US. This is endangering public health. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/06/h...

A new era of government censorship has begun. It started with the silencing of scientific speech, when the admin blocked release of research on bird flu. But MAGA has also cracked down on other wrongthink—on race, geography (!), and of course Trump himself www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

I live in New York City in the year 2025. The president is a convicted felon. The mayor of NYC is an indicted felon. The secretary of defense is a Fox News host. The secretary of transportation is a Fox News host. The very worst people in America are in charge of America.

Please share far and wide: ICE arrested and detained a family of natural born US citizens including a grandmother and 3 year old toddler in Milwaukee because they heard them speaking Spanish while out shopping. All three were Puerto Rican. www.latintimes.com/ice-says-sor...

Whoops!

Been avoiding the news but I seriously thought we had a few more weeks before we go to this point where they were actively targeting American citizens... 6abc.com/post/owners-... I've been keeping it together but Sam and I are targets now.
