Firstly, a Big Fat NO to Trump and all he stands for.

I make music on the computer. I also play Minecraft on the computer, even though I'm old. I do a lot of typing on the computer, as well. I'm on Team Landscape with regard to photo orientation. (he/him)

Mad at Sen. Schumer? Watch this first.

"People who have never seen or heard a majority or minority leader of the Senate actually try to persuade a senator on how to vote seem to think that it's easy. If you haven't worked in the Senate you haven't actually seen it happen."

I’m so devastated for the students, teachers, and faculty at Brown University, some of whom have now personally experienced TWO school shootings.

Let’s not waste time with all the political back and forth nonsense — we need to actually do something to prevent the next shooting.

55 years ago, university students protested the exploitation of their campus’s computational resources by researchers working for the Dept of Defense to develop AI. On Tuesday @cnygren.bsky.social and I will have a piece out that uses this incident as inspiration for the protest we need now.
It’s been fun while it lasted: “Purdue University will begin requiring that all of its undergraduate students demonstrate basic competency in artificial intelligence starting with freshmen who enter the university in 2026.”

A lot of terrible things in the world going on everyday so it's good to post the good things sometimes. Humanity is not lost so we should all try to spread it as much as we can.

Enough selfish, greedy & petty Trump admin. officials who feel they aren't getting enough of the gravy, and so to retaliate they sabotage the whole enterprise from within.

When I visit Mount Vernon, I always go to Easton's Books. Bought a few books today!

It's a great time to support local businesses in towns like Mount Vernon that are being impacted by recent floods.

As of last night, we have about 250 emergency rescues statewide. The number is likely more.

Thank you to our first responders who are putting themselves in harm's way to rescue folks who desperately need it.

👏🏼 Rep Kamlager-Dove expertly schools Republicans on their lopsided, toxic relationship to Trump.

Says they can consider this speech their Republican intervention.

Lays out all the ways Trump has rewarded them for their loyalty by making them go against their own proclaimed values. - Pt. 1

Fantastic work in *every* way except for the disappointing lack of a denouement.

That's not drama. That's cheating.

This is because Nate Silver has 300K subscribers on Substack and Heather Cox Richardson has 2.7M. Mediocre men CAN'T STAND successful women, and even blame them for their own failures. Pathetic.

It is so wrong that these mass shootings continue to happen.

My heart is with the entire Brown community and all those affected, and this should do more than break our hearts. It should move us to action to enact real gun safety reforms.
