I'm curating my Bluesky account rigorously.

I'm done with blanket outrage & negativity.

We should all want solutions & the sharing of important info so we can take meaningful action.
Bad advice?
Excuses, excuses.
When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) on CNN: “I think the death of Americans, what we're seeing on TV, it's causing deep concerns over federal tactics and accountability. Americans don't like what they're seeing right now. … [Trump’s] getting bad advice right now.”

We are looking for some more leggings for our middle school care closet! They are very useful for students who need clothes or have accidents during the day and need a change. Shares ❤️ @diedrichbader.bsky.social @bonhanson.bsky.social @annedeuceofcups.bsky.social www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

Accurate.
Also, we should all focus locally. Elect Dems in as many local positions as possible. Create the sustainable pipeline for locally elected Dems to move up the political ladder.
What? Thune had to change the rules because Ds were gunking up the works. There hasn't been a lot of legislation to filibuster

Schumer's failings right now are failings of rhetoric and caucus vision- bad, don't get me wrong- but senate Ds have been pretty obstructionist given their limited power

Never forget that billionaires spend billions to convince you that voting doesn't matter. Don't help them. Voting isn't the ONLY thing we can do, but it is the most powerful check on the executive. "Don't bother voting because there'll be no free elections" is oligarch propaganda.

The insurrection act was always the end goal - I’ve been talking about this for months. He’s been trying to find a city that would push back enough to give him a (flimsy) excuse to do it

This video is the perfect encapsulation of the illegal, thuggish, unprovoked, violent conduct of ICE. Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social, I trust that you and the House Homeland Security Committee will have interest in this.

Here’s a comment for the people who are upset that MN hasn’t charged Jonathan Ross already:

If you just Leeeroy Jenkins this shit you will lose and you will empower fascism and murder.

It is indescribably hard to prosecute cops for murder. It is even hard when the murder is ON VIDEO.

Abolish ICE
They're the modern equivalent to the Zollgrenzschutz (Customs Border Guards):
Historical context: This agency, under the Finance Ministry, managed border crossings, but was integrated into the N*zi security apparatus, enforcing racial checks and preventing unwanted exits/entries.

This is disgusting and a prime example of why we must demand stricter laws against AI use.
Many are just waking up to the Grok-nonconsensual images story as these pictures began flooding X over the holidays, but here’s our piece from Jan 2 featuring a victim, Julie Yukari, who was brave enough to speak on the record and on camera:

Most punditry is a joke Analysis used to be based on fact, now its just attention-seekers: it makes them feel important and they get to share in that sweet, sweet $13 billion industry known as elections. 24/7 so-called news media has become a corporate money making machine.
There are multiple national political commentators who earnestly predicted that Eric Adams would be a legitimate presidential candidate and a national figurehead of the Democratic party by now and those commentators still have careers somehow.

Please take care of yourself & others. Wear a mask when in a crowd.
"If you're using public transportation, if you're in the room with a lot of other people, if you're in a healthcare setting, it's really smart to wear a mask especially higher-quality masks. I was taking the subway yesterday, and I was wearing an N95 mask."

Are there any librarians with time to read a piece of literary fiction?

I looked for a setting to make sure my DMs are open to anyone, but I can't find it.

It's not just young people who hate clickbait etc.
My political comm students wrote really great final papers. They absolutely hate clickbait, outragebait, fear appeals, and everything else that our modern media does to attract our attention and polarize us. They're exhausted and over it. The attention economy played itself.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

This is just gross.
AI is dangerous, especially when there are so few laws, rules & regs for oversight and protection.
On Dec. 9, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth issued a memorandum to Defense Dept. personnel announcing the launch of a military-focused generative AI platform with capabilities from Google Gemini. Read the memo, from Isabel Arroyo.

The memorandum describes “GenAI.mil” as a secure service fit to handle controlled unclassified information.
