I’m a very good baker of pies. I love my grandsons, my chocolate lab Archer, Scotland. I believe in science, public health, reading, all the art, history, music. Not feeling optimistic at all these days.

The word of the day is “kuebiko”, a feeling of being overcome with exhaustion at all the world’s horrors and a sense of resignation at your own inability to fix things.

Dear universities, scientists, lawyers, farmers, workers, artists, doctors...

Being silent won't protect you.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

If you find yourself in the presence of a Democratic politician at some point in the next 2 days could you do me a favour & ask them "What the actual fuck do you all think you're doing, and when are you going to actually try to stop the onrushing tide of white supremacist fascism?"

much appreciated

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ?

And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions !

We all look forward to reading your thoughts
I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Musk's censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by about 95% since he bought it.

So we moved over to blue sky.

Help us build another great following right here where the skies are clear and the water is fine ;-)
Please do

All of these plus general strike perhaps
Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass

No matter how hard things get, I will not bow to a tyrant…

I will not give in to the lies…

I will not surrender to fear…

And, most of all, I will not give up on hope.
