This is 100% true- do not trust any social media, keep open various means of contact - back up where possible - read @sarahkendzior.bsky.social books to know why they wanted her off social media
Very alarmed to see that Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior for spurious and dishonest reasons. It does not bode well for this platform, which I find very disappointing. You can read about what Sarah experienced here. What’s this about @jay.bsky.team?!

@timmiller.bsky.social Keeping with a lighter note, your discussion about NASA shirts from today’s podcast reminded me of this gem from a very funny comedian during the pandemic times.

Very cool. This was one of the best renditions of the anthem I’ve heard. Unfortunate but understandable.
Winnipeggers know him as Soulbear, one of our anthem faves. The choice to have him sing might be deeper than some might initially think.

Think back to your high school history classes. Just how much time did your teachers spend on teaching any of the US history between the Civil War and WW2?

If it wasn't much, there's a reason for that.
This is why 1930s Germany is not the best analogy.

1920s America has more parallels.

But America whitewashed post-reconstruction history and how dark and bloody that time was for Black Americans.

Now here we are.
I still struggle to understand this in a lot of ways. Obama and black people demanding a modicum of respect breaking the minds of the worst elements of our society is still so crazy to me. People were killed for this like its the 1920s!

A grim but essential memory: 80 years ago today Auschwitz was liberated. That there was an Auschwitz to liberate is unspeakably tragic. . .

We failed to stop fascism's rise. Now it's dancing about on the White House lawn. I don't know how to fix all this but I do know that the shit we've been doing won't get us out of this one.

In case you missed this piece yesterday, reupping it here.
Musk's opinion piece for the German paper Die Welt, endorsing a right-wing extremist political party, matters a lot more for us than you might think, so I spent some time putting together a look at German politics, Musk's views, and the reaction to them. joycevance.substack.com/p/musk-in-di...
Musk in Die Welt
It did not take long for Eva Marie Kogel, the opinion editor at Die Welt, Germany’s paper of record, to decide what the right thing for her to do was.

-keep your cats indoors. They can catch it from infected birds and mice.
