Knowing how the drumbeat of war spreads rhythms of jingoism and fear, now seems like a good time to slow down and engage with the long rich heritage of Persian poetry.
Ever since "Window Horses" filmmaker Ann Marie Fleming told me "people are not their wars" I have carried those words with me.

I'll just say this before heading out. If you're a young person in NYC, THIS IS YOUR TIME. The next couple of decades in this city are going to be shaped by what happens on Tuesday. Be part of the team that is turning the page on politicians like Cuomo. There are better choices.

Couple skeets in and I'm already learning something.
Iran insists it has no intention of building nuclear weapons (U.S. intelligence agrees - bsky.app/profile/shak...).
So, why does Iran enrich uranium? A short thread: 🧵

I am normally THE FIRST to defend girls when they're described as such, but...this thread has some excellent, excellent points and we should consider the power of angry girls. Y'all ever seen what happens if you piss off the Girl Scouts? Awe-inspiring tbh

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that
