People do not use information to determine their social identities; they use their social identities to determine what counts as information. The climate fight is, and has always been, an identity fight. Gonna talk with @samuel-bagg.bsky.social about this soon.

Space photographer Andrew James McCarthy @ajamesmccarthy.bsky.social has captured many epic images of celestial bodies, but this may be his greatest: a perfectly timed photo of a skydiving friend with the sun behind him (shot w/ equipment revealing great solar detail).

The most important thing to remember about all this fantasy-engineering of the Constitution is Madison's warning: If we suck as a people, no clever constitutional schemes will save us.

The Olivia Nuzzi Comeback Is Everything Wrong With Modern Media
Olivia Nuzzi’s comeback isn’t a personal scandal story—it’s proof that today’s media rewards access, personality, and controversy more than ethics.

Tom, I’m a follower and someone who listens to you, and reads what you have to say. Stop arguing with nonsense. Instead, tell us, every day, what we need to do to stop fascism/ authoritarianism. Please.

My mistake has been trying to explain what "fascism" is to people who don't care what it is.
So I'm going to try something else. Let's do this as a practical thought exercise.
If America *were* fascist *today* - what would you have to do differently in your daily life? /1

Understandable. Fascism is part of totalitarianism, which is part of authoritarianism.
Think of it like Family/Genus/Species in biology:
Family - Authoritarian
Genus - Totalitarian
Species - Fascist
Getting the Family right and Species wrong is the difference between a tiger and a house cat!
