I heard my friend Dan here give a remarkable brief talk about this last month. Thankfully, he’s written it up at length to share.

I love being called 'Woke' like it's some kind of insult. I'm starting to enjoy being criticised for caring about the future of life on this planet 🌎 It means you can find out who the enemy is 👀 @greenpeace.eu @wokeinter.bsky.social

Why didn't the AG have him arrested for an insurrection against the government, the deaths of policemen, brutal assaults on police, attempted hanging of Mike Pence, forceful break & enter into the Capitol, etc, etc.????????? NO ONE, even the Prez, should be above the law. Impeach the Supreme Court!

We are about to enter an era of extreme and dangerous culture war in the United States. How do we protect our communities and work toward a cultural ceasefire? In this piece I wrote a couple months ago, I offer one possible path. wapo.st/40q1BDn

Maine Coon Alert---her expression is all of us this morning.

Because they’re Black, they must be looting? This isn’t an honest mistake. Spread truth, not lies: These folks weren’t looters. This footage is from KTLA, where the homeowner explained that her brothers & friends were helping her move belongings out of her burned house. (Her interview in the 🧵)

And the 4 years hasn't even started yet

I've deleted my #instagram and #threads accounts. I don't need to assist #MarkZuckerberg as he becomes handmaiden-in-chief to authoritarianism. Neither do you. Delete. #Meta is garbage.

Today is January 6, the anniversary of the felon/GOP’s violent insurrection trying to stop the peaceful transfer of power in the 2020 election! We remember 140 officers who were injured & those who lost their lives due to the attack on the Capitol! Hold all involved in the insurrection accountable!

If you don’t have a library card go get one. Even if you don’t plan on using it right away, go get one. Keep our libraries alive.

Wow, I never knew he said this. Jimmy Carter was ahead of his time—a man of unmatched kindness and integrity. Truly, he was too good for us.

Contemplation for today…. if you LIKE IT give it 💙and plz RP😘😘

This is so spot-on it’s scary.

It’s not wrong.

I’d recommend everyone regardless of medical risk bring a mask on your airplane journey, a disinfectant wipe to clean the seat you’re in and hand sanitizer. It’s going to be on you alone to protect your health. Warning signs are everywhere.

Food for thought…if you LIKE IT give it 💙and plz RP😘😘

I checked Twitter for the first time in awhile today and the first thing I saw was that the number one trending topic was Catturd. In conclusion, we’ve made the right decision coming here.

NEW: Bluesky has seen massive growth in the weeks following the US election. There are 24 million users on the social media platform. With great engagement comes great responsibility, which means Bluesky CEO @jay.bsky.team has a lot to do. She sat down with WIRED to talk about it.
