CANADIANS! Our government is once again trying to convince us AI is good, actually, and they have a whole big survey about how we can use AI. I pretty much just said "we can't until we can do it without mass theft and poisoning the environment" over and over again, and you can too

NEW: I spoke to fans & labor organizers about how WNBA fan solidarity could be a key part of the CBA negotiations—& why women's sports fans are uniquely positioned to support a work stoppage, should one be on the table.
fan solidarity could be the wnba players' secret weapon
fandom works differently in women's sports than it does in men's—and it skews much more pro-player than pro-owner.

Government survey: How can we support AI champions to own the podium? What barriers exist to uptake of AI in all areas of the economy across all regions?

Me: I strongly believe these questions are an insult to life itself

I demand that more worthy women coaches, particularly Black women coaches be considered in the WNBA!! Stop hiring men over capable women candidates tf going on around here?! I cannot believe Manbun and Tyler Marshmellow still have jobs over Sandy and TSpoon. #Parity

Eat. Sleep. Exercise. Nurture the relationships that sustain you. Protect your health. Find joy. Don't mistake any of these for the resistance itself. Joy isn't resistance, neither is rest. But you need to be whole to resist for a lifetime.

Depending on your rooting or anti-rooting interests, the refs are either conspiring with the Dream or with the Fever and maybe they're just not good at this. #WNBA #ATLvsIN
@danaholtzbert.bsky.social Refs are so bad that Dream and Fever players are complaining when the other team gets a bad call.

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

survey.gendercensus.com

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

In case you need a starting place I recently created a list called Banned Books Activism which is just people and organizations that do banned books activism. I’m adding to the list as I discover new accounts to follow. You can find the list here: bsky.app/profile/mali...
If you search "Freedom to Read" on here you'll find a handful of accounts all of which post updates & info. Find an account. Follow a trail. Look, you're scrolling AND learning.
Let's get those planners out & get our week of action planned!
Monday: LEARN
Is there good or bad legislation in your state or city? Who is running in upcoming elections? Are there any local organizations already doing the work?

Octavia Butler couldn’t see the future. She saw what was happening in front of her and, in addition to studying the past, was able to imagine where it would lead. It’s important to tell the truth about her because mythologizing her is a disservice to her legacy.

Maus author Art Spiegelman’s next comic will be about Gaza, in collaboration with Joe Sacco. He thinks he will struggle to find a publisher in the United States.

“I’ll finish this thing or die trying.”
Art Spiegelman Won’t Shrink Back From Controversy
The artist has illustrated more than one contentious New Yorker cover in his career, chronicled in a new film, and his next project will be no less gutsy.
