Novice woodworker. Trees are my spirit animal. 21% of America is illiterate. 50% of America reads at a 6th grade level. Prisons for profit incentivize systemic (police, politicians, judicial, cheap labor) actions to jail people.
Something is wrong with them. They don't see people as people.
Straight-up evil‼️

“I really do kind of not only want to see them killed in the water… but I’d really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so that they lose a limb and bleed out a little.”

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.

This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

The Heritage Foundation’s on-demand school board training programs include a "Hot Topics" module.

This module frames curriculum debates, parental rights, diversity and inclusion initiatives, library materials, and school safety.

PSA! 📢 The dept of Ed is planning to reclassify nursing, counseling, social work, & other degrees from "professional" to "graduate." This would cut in HALF the amount of loans students can take out & would undermine these vital, women-dominated fields. Sign to join the fight app.sosha.ai/s/mXPkjMPE

160 years ago today, our nation ratified the 13th Amendment, abolishing the horrific institution of slavery.

The 13th Amendment was a defining step toward equality, but our work to build a more just nation continues.

Founding fathers can’t be blamed for not writing a constitution strong enough to curb the actions of a malignant narsisistic psychopath felon backed by a whole cabinet of incompetent sycophants propped up by a bought & payed for Supreme Court

Nailed it. And it goes beyond tech, it applies to capitalism in general. It's been a great driving force, but it subjugates people. Even our culture is based on capitalism, status is in possessions. We need to focus on us. More time and support for everyone to enjoy life.
Our collective task is not to save tech but to save us, our world.

The resonant computing manifesto is too focused on means and not on ends. And that's basically the core issue. The belief in technological determinism.

So glad to see this! Obama shut down OFA after he was elected, but he needed Americans for his agenda while he governed as well as campaign. Hope the Dem establishment takes note. @electdemocrats.bsky.social
Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

Biden's message: Get up and fight back!

If you have a moment, take a look at this clip from President Biden tonight.

Biden is still a leader who’s steady. Sharp. Detailed. Present.

Biden speaks with clarity and purpose, instead of rage, rambling, or whatever the hell #Shit4Brains does.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.
Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.

Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.

This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.

The U.S. Supreme Court: "ICE can racially profile people it arrests."

Also, the U.S. Supreme Court: "Texas can disenfranchise voters based on race."

Can we all agree that we currently have a white supremacist Supreme Court?

Congratulations to Justin Crosby (D) on his election victory in Mississippi CD22 — he flipped the newly redrawn seat by defeating the incumbent with approximately 53 % of the vote.

This win is part of a broader shift after court-ordered map revisions aimed at increasing majority-Black districts.
