We might like Bluesky because there is no evil algorithm BUT unlike over on Mastodon where it is part of the culture, folks here often don’t think to boost posts they like. Remember that if there is no algorithm, then we all benefit from others sharing good stuff. Like & REPOST good stuff, people!

This generous review of “Along the Line” absolutely captures what I was trying to do with this book. Such a kind & generous review essay. I am so grateful that this work resonated, and that Silvia Aru took the time to put it on paper so clearly. What a gift!

Human Geography at Leicester is facing closure. Staff contracts are to end in June 2026; students are to be relocated to other universities, or taught out by a maximum of two (!) teaching-only staff. Other departments and subjects are facing closure, too. Please join the demo!

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

Geography, it’s complicated…
Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

To spell it out a bit more: Redistricting works by taking safe seats and "spreading the wealth" to competitive ones. Republicans are discovering that there wasn't nearly as much wealth to go around as they'd hoped—so instead of turning competitive seats safe, they've turned safe seats competitive
really important element of this basically total victory is that it puts the fear of god in republican incumbents and may bring the redistricting push to a total halt

As an alumni of Syracuse University, it's appalling that they are capitulating against a right-wing campaign against Professor Farhana Sultana for exercising her first amendment rights. Do consider signing this letter calling on Syracuse University to reinstate her docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
