I really can only pronounce it "ho-meow-ner" at this point. I'm not even sorry!

Ok, I'm doing a version of this thread for 🧪 who are new to political conditions where info security is a safety issue:
1. Don't make public lists of people who are engaging in acts of resistance
2. Be weary of calls to advertise acts of subversion
3. Don't live post resistance meetings

The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

It's two hours long, but I think this video by @acollierastro.bsky.social is SO important. Sexual harassment in academia is rife and protecting powerful male perpetrators is still pretty much normalised. (Content warnings for SA) youtu.be/8DNRBa39Iig?...

Always ask the question. Every story I’ve ever seen of someone curing their cancer using “alternative” therapies has a “also we did the normal stuff” subplot right beneath the surface.

Northeast Academy is a small Christian school in rural NC.
Last school year, it received $438,500 from the state-funded private school voucher program.
As of 2022, “the school’s enrollment was 99% white in a county that runs about 40% white.”
This is their plan for America. 👀

Anyone out there teaching Anatomy & Physiology at the Community/Local college level?
I'd love to connect and learn about what's working/not working for you and see how I might be able to improve student success in such a challenging course.

We solved so many problems so well that most people don’t know that they were ever problems, and so their base assumption is that this is the natural order of the world when it’s actually a fragile system held up by an expansive administrative state…which millions just voted to dismantle.
"We have a mandate to dismantle the regulatory state - and both the power and the will to do so,"
Is explicitly what they ran on and enough of the US has just always had clean water and safe food and some manor of workplace protection that they categorically do not understand what a threat that is.

Be sure to do something nice for yourself this weekend instead of doom scrolling. Read a good book. Play board games with a loved one. Scream into a cave. Sort your doomsday seeds by season. Whisper the names of your enemies into the wicked ear of Crzthlach, the First God. Make a sourdough starter.
