Ukrainian women inspire with their strength, courage, and indomitable spirit.

They teach, save lives, evacuate the wounded, and defend Ukraine from russian invaders.

Let’s support them:

French Eutelsat is preparing to replace Starlink in Ukraine and plans to send about 40,000 communication terminals.

Matching Starlink’s 40,000 would take “a couple of months, not years.”

There are, of course, a thousand things going on in parallel, but I think this, by @davidfrum.bsky.social, goes a long way to explaining the relish and sheer nastiness of that Oval Office meeting. ~AA

We've worked with the crew that run the @Prayer4Uyghurs.bsky.social account on a few projects over the years, really doubt they broke TOS given what they do.

Why are they suspended @bsky.app @aaron.bsky.team @safety.bsky.app ?
Can you reinstate them please?

I for one am shocked that the fake government department manned by pale virgins and named after a meme for nonces is fucking up on a colossal scale.
DOGE “seemed unsure” of what USAID programs they cut and is now attempting to reverse some of the cuts, says @propublica.org reporter Brett Murphy. “This is the opposite of a careful review."

Today I’m replacing twitter with Bluesky. Twitter isn’t what it was, but crucially the owner is part of a government that is waging economic war against Canada. I think Halifax should ditch twitter too (thanks @lecwhite.bsky.social for starting that process). O’Canada.

You missed Brits.

We are boycotting too, and our relationship is changed.

You don't get to call Churchill a dictator, spit on our war dead from US wars, side with a fascist dictatorship invading Europe, and expect it to just be forgotten.

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address:

Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

Someone needs to remind President Trump that President Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country, a hero who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous ACTUAL dictator called Vladimir Putin
