I realize my posts here are not-so-much about #Genealogy.

But this is a CRISIS in our beloved country and world.

Honoring my ancestors and family history by staying informed and involved is the right and most important thing to do, given this situation.

Regardless of how many researchers highlight the cultural trends against "AI" data centers, & the increasingly widepread public awareness of the unequal economic & environmental harms of these systems, a lot of tech-pilled ppl will only pay attention once it shows up somewhere like WIRED.

So here:
The Data Center Resistance Has Arrived
A new report finds that local opposition to data centers skyrocketed in the second quarter of this year.

For those who stumble here: ZERO meaningful evidence that son (and Rev War soldier) William Brady had a son Nathan Brady.

Please work to find TRUE father for Nathan, likely in NC.

Beware "researchers" who claim this connection as true.
Sometimes I create an attached "person" to add explanation ... Like a brother named "Nathan, I was NEVER William's brother" (LOL) or
"Nathan, FICTIONAL BROTHER".

Then add notes & timeline as part of Proof I will eventually write.

If I float this profile, I use custom tag "Float"

It is with bittersweet feeling that I’m announcing the end of #genchat as we know it as of December 12 on Bluesky and 13 on Mastodon. There are several reasons for this:

The problem of sexual assault goes well beyond the perpetrators. It wouldn't happen without the enablers. Such as Republican politicians who go to church on Sunday and then spend their workdays trying to cover up the president's involvement with a child sex trafficking operation.

I have to reiterate that the loss to the United States of so many excellent scientists who were fired by Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is catastrophic to the future of the country.

And also to the present of the country.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

Dems need to start talking more about how Trump’s dementia means that he can’t distinguish his fantasies from reality. He has completely lost touch with the real world and only knows what his sycophantic courtiers are telling him.
Trump: "If you look at affordability, which they campaigned on, they lied. Because they talked about 'Oh, prices are up' -- no, prices are down under the Trump administration and they're down substantially."

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trump yesterday: They have this new word called
"affordability" and [Republicans] don't talk about it enough. Democrats did.

Trump today: I don't want to hear about the affordability.

Trump says we are preparing to invade Nigeria. Apparently that’s what voters said they wanted in the exit polls. Trump: “We’re going to do things to Nigeria that Nigeria’s not gonna be happy about. Guns-a-blazin!”

Delighted to see international coverage of the project in @arlingtonva.us to memorialize enslaved people. We're the 1st county in the U.S. south to do this & had huge support from the community & local govt. See if you can spot me in the crowd pic!
Learn more about the project at enslavedarl.org
The Southern US county honouring its dark past
While other places in the US are increasingly censoring how they tell their multicultural histories to travellers, one community is highlighting them.

Yes, I care greatly about the outcome of the midterms, but if you’re not feeling urgency to speak out and push back every day between then and now, you’re missing the gravity of this moment.
