Saying there are “too many non-working holidays” on Juneteenth is so on brand for a man who is actively trying to erase Black history.
This from the same man who’s wasted over $26 million in taxpayer dollars and spent more than 30 days golfing since January 20, 2025? Please.

Because 70+ years ago we allowed an industry to dismantle a highly robust passenger rail network that spanned the nation, all to restrict people's freedom of mobility and tie them to perpetual debt found in car dependant culture.

This iconic Fabian Todorovic cartoon is still one of the best I’ve seen at illustrating the remarkable amount of space we surrender to cars, leaving little space left for everyone and everything else. The text added later makes the bonus point that many drivers still manage to complain about it.

It's why social media has, if anything, had a profoundly anti-social effect on society.
It only works if everyone is a 'reasonable person'.
Sadly, that isn't the case; add in commercial and other nefarious interests, and the resulting cocktail is most likely psychological poison.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Friends, for something to be open source, we need to see
1. The data it was trained & evaluated on
2. The code
3. Model architecture
4. Model weights.
DeepSeek only gives 3, 4. And I'll see the day that anyone gives us #1 without being forced to do so, because all of them are stealing data.
