Just watching a panel on CNN discussing America conquering other countries as if it was just another policy choice, like building a highway.
I don’t think the contagion in that country can be solved without a degree of resistance not seen in 160 years.

Why am I getting the same hucksters on Bluesky, X, Threads? Cockroaches are really the end game. Or is that AGI?

Thou shalt not blame California wildfires on ‘God punishing liberals.’ By that logic, God flooded the Bible Belt in October to punish morons.

lots of devastation and negativity on the feed today.
i know this won’t solve anything, but maybe it’ll make someone smile and just forget for a small moment.

The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this

So, the latest fact-checking Night of the Long Knives on Threads. I feel like being corralled into Bluesky ... y'all read 'Lord of the Flies'? Social media is unbearably toxic right now. Yet, I have a duty to plant my flag and promote decency, respect, ethics, tolerance, debate, engagement.

It never stops being weird watching homophobes dance to YMCA, the most popular gay anthem of all time.

I am a high school teacher and I find it almost impossible to teach actual rhetorical terms (including "trope"!) because of this saturation

Is it a sideline, or your main source of revenue? I think being an author today is one of the toghest jobs ever. And what kind of civilisation are we living in? All artists must be revered (and funded, with perks).
