MIT courageously & powerfully rejected Trump’s extortion “compact”: More funding in exchange for universities adopting MAGA ideology.
Every university must reject it. Just like every state, city, law firm, media company, etc., must reject Trump’s fascism.
Hang together or hang separately.

Hey @chrislhayes.bsky.social, THANK YOU for pushing @colorado.gov Jared Polis on RFK and vaccines. He has a lot to answer for on behalf of Coloradans, and I appreciate you not letting him slide just because he's a Democrat.

I watch my family grow thinner, quieter, more distant by the day. The world says it’s watching. But we are vanishing.
Kindly don’t look away. My family is all I have. I entrust them to you. Don’t leave us alone in this. 🙏🏽

A political movement driven by reasonable concerns about sports and medicine would have no problem admitting that trans people face discrimination. The fact that "gender criticals" constantly deny basic realities is sign 1,087 that they are in fact driven by bigotry.

I'm so used to bad news by now, i forgot what not-bad-news felt like 🎉
Huge news in AI copyright world. Still reading the opinion, but encouraged that Judge Alsup got it right on training. Act I Scene 1 in a long drama, but a promising start.
🚨BREAKING: Federal judge concludes that using copyrighted works to train generative A.I. is transformative and ultimately a fair use. (Nevertheless, Anthropic can’t beat the lawsuit because it pirated books for another purpose too.) First of kind ruling. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Last photo I got at I-25 and Broadway, as the last few demonstrators left the scene. Some reportedly headed back to the state Capitol, but I'm not there.

Colorado residents, you should know that unfortunately there's no reason to trust Gov. Polis's endorsement of this, as he has gone back on his word already in cooperating with ICE. @govofco.bsky.social

Going to be one of those days where I worry I wrote the share of the day all wrong or picked the wrong picture 💔
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Ahmad. Ahmad worked for a small telephone company run by his friend before the war and helped support his family. He lost his friend, job and home. He’s still trying to support his extended family including his dad and several small children.
