This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Fun short trip onto the Hauraki Rail Trail last week with a stop at #TheGrumpyGoose for some delicious ice cream before finishing a 55km leg towards Thames. #WaitangiDay

This is crazy. Shuttering USAID was a terrible idea and cripples US 'soft power' and diplomatic relations. And now we know why it happened - gizmodo.com/elon-musks-e...

@troyhunt.com sorry to bother you, but I was notified via another service (nordvpn) that I was exposed in the Teg.com.au (ticketek) breach. What is curious about this is my email doesn't appear to show up on haveibeenpwned for that email address & breach? Any thoughts on that?

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat. I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.

Ok, I have to admit, I had to look at this article three times to convince myself it wasn't from The Onion. I didn't know bloodletting was a recommended medical treatment. I thought that went out of style around the same time as 'leeching'

I chatted with Bluesky users about quitting Meta platforms in addition to X: "We don’t feel like we’re taking a moral absolutism kind of stance, we feel like we’re just living our values by saying ‘This is not OK.'" www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-...

I've been following this story with interest as it has gotten a lot of play in the media and I'm in the alcohol business. Particularly this, "From the first drop" quote that has made the rounds & appears to be made up from whole cloth? @nytimes.com, looking for response from Rabin on this...

How hot is too hot for planet Earth? For years, there’s been a consensus in the climate movement: no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius. But that figure isn't based on any actual scientific calculation, Emma Marris wrote in 2023.

Let's not forget the key reason fact-checking came to Facebook. It wasn't Donald Trump. It was the Ronhingya Genocide that Meta viral-spiraled. Meta later rejected requests for a tiny donation/reparation for the literal genocide they helped foment. Think about that when you use Meta/FB/Insta.

Calling it a precursor to genocide doesn't help make the point that the bigger issue is the removal of controls/guardrails against proliferation of hateful & violent content and how minorities and women are likely to suffer real-world consequences due to Zuck abandoning morality in favor of profit.

Nice explanation for question we often get as well. We don't cold stabilize @destinybay.bsky.social either

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

36 years ago today, Sgt. Al Powell was dispatched to investigate a prank call. He ended up saving countless lives at Nakatomi Plaza. Today, we remember and honor his bravery.

Everest is the tallest mountain on the planet but Chimborazo is the closest place on Earth to space. Why? It sits on the equatorial bulge. #travel #equador #chimborazo #panamhighway

#JustinBaldoni looks like a prime candidate for the Darwin award for self-cancelling a career. How dumb can you be to run a smear campaign against a power couple like Lively & Reynolds. William Morris just dropped you like a bad habit. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...
