Lover of good books, good music, and good journalism. I’m not the least bit interested in crypto, and I will block anyone looking to promote it. Nor am I the least bit interested in your OnlyFans account. You can expect a block from me as well.
@radiofreetom.bsky.social I apologize if I’m not the first to call your attention to this.
This sounds reasonable but is 100% wrong. Whether you or agree or disagree with a study is completely immaterial. What matters is whether the study was conducted properly and generates valid results. And it's impolitic to say but it's true: you have to have some level of expertise to judge that.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.

She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.

But the FDA recently denied its approval.

Now, her health hangs in the balance.

Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

The distance between a legal resident who's not a citizen being deported without due process and a citizen being deported without due process is a hell of a lot shorter than many folks seem to believe, and when it does happen to a citizen, just remember it started here and who was quiet in response.

Want to know one way government layoffs affect the public at large? A cashier at the grocery store told me this morning that because people don’t have jobs, sales are down, leading to supermarket employees’ hours being cut.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

This is a tough time right now, and the way I’m trying to get through this, like I did during the first Trump administration, is through good books and good music (among other things). So right now, I’m reading “A River Runs Through It.” Anyone want to recommend something?

I’ve been finding that Willie Nelson’s music is a balm for these times. I don’t know what it is but I find it so soothing.

A small distraction from today’s bullshit. Not all of this is true for me (also, I’m not turning 60 yet) but a lot of this is — about half of these elicited chuckles of recognition from me.

In the face of everything going on, it’s easy to give up and decide that nothing matters. But as @kenwhite.bsky.social points below, we can fight back by with kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values.
Not everyone can fight Trumpism and Trumpists directly. But remember this: kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values are defiance in the face of Trumpism.

So be kind, decent, and faithful, particularly to the many kinds of people despised and attacked by Trumpists. That’s revolutionary./1

Four years ago, Donald Trump incited a violent, unprecedented assault on American democracy.

Ever since, the GOP has sought to rewrite history—to deny what all of us saw, and the plot that fomented it.

They’ve been winning the information war. As Democrats, we can not back down from this fight. 🧵
