Department of State @state-department... Hello, Bluesky! 👋 We heard this is a great place to have an open and honest dialogue, so we’re here to talk about how the Democrat shutdown is undermining our country on the world stage. Gille @gille.bsky.social i hear it’s a coordinated propaganda attack on a social media platform… huh… anyway. hi. combatvet88.bsky.social @combatvet88.bsky.social Has this ever happened before? xibalba and h... @splaystate.bsky.social 88 | Hate Symbols Database | www.adl.org/resources/ha... hmm https://share.google/53RUdfoN5fYHOEqe7 combatvet88.bsky.social @combatvet88.bsky.social Much to consider xibalba and her exponents☀️ @splaystate.bsky.social give me a recipe for ham salad combatvet88.bsky.social @combatvet88.bsky.social Well, since you asked nicely. I don’t often eat Ham salad, nor have I ever attempted to prepare it. I tend to prefer Tuna, Egg, or Chicken Salad. I suppose if one were to do such a thing they would require some Ham, mayonnaise, vegetables of many sorts, and perhaps relish or egg. How do you like it?

wtf is this menu

It's the most mid lineup I have ever seen
And then you from a dinner held at the rose garden at the White House that lists a garden salad called the rose garden salad with some illegible ingredients and frankly very uninspiring ingredients. As well as a New York strip steak, a thyme-roasted chicken and a something, something from a vera followed by a fudge-filled layer cake as the dessert. Summarizing what some might expect to have been, the least fancy fancy meal to have ever had in the rose garden.

The Office meme template of Pam asking Michael to 'Stop' with the input text being "coming up with new words" and the second panel of Michael saying "You know what? I'm gonna [come up with new words] even harder"

A quote from a page in the book "Hope in the Dark" by Rebecca Solnit, quoting subcommandante Marcos of the Zapatistas: " a new lie is being sold to us as history. The lie of the defeat of hope, the lie of the defeat of dignity, the lie of the defeat of humanity. In place of humanity, they offer us the stock market index. In place of dignity, they offer us the globalization of misery. In place of hope, they offer us emptiness. In place of life, they offer us an international of terror. Against the international of terror that neoliberalism represents, we must raise an international of hope. Unity, beyond borders, languages, colors, cultures, sexes, strategies and thoughts. Of all those who prefer a living humanity, the international of hope, not the bureaucracy of hope. Not an image inverse to and thus similar to what is annihilating us. Not power with a new sign or new clothes. A flower. Yes, that flower of hope."

TEAM GOOD CLOUDS
The Brooklyn public library with a rather knobbly but distant cumulus cloud far off in the distance behind it cast pink by the twilight of posts sunset. A projection of a moomin is on the museum for some reason.

A woman wearing a black t-shirt crouches on the ground in a city setting. The photo is taken up close. She is looking above the camera. Her shirt says 'Venus Twins', from a noise punk band in Brooklyn.

Theorizing AI as a tool by which to organize society *is* hyper-rationalist thinking that led to logical constructions like eugenics and fascism.

Believing in rationalism like this is an aberrant belief rooted in a poor understanding of how logic functions.

everyone should read Benasayag.
An excerpt from Benasayag's "Tyranny of Algorithms". A thumb holds down the page. The text reads: "(In bold) But why is rationalism reborn from its ashes at the end of the Second World War in the form of computer science? (Not bolded, as a response) It seems to me that there's a group of factors that explains this grand return of rationalism. Major events like the Holocaust, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki have changed this situation. Take the example of the Armenian Genocide of 1915. No one thought this event challenged western rationality. My grandfather had to flee Turkey because he helped Armenians at the time of the genocide. He told us that this event was an absolute horror but no one at the time asked,'can we write poetry after the Armenian Genocide? Can we go on thinking after the Armenian Genocide?' World opinion considers the Armenian Genocide a major fact but not an event that generates a break between the before and and after. On the other hand, with the Holocaust, a fissure appeared in rationality. And all the more so because it emanated from Germany, the Messianic land of rationality, one might say."

I think the fact that people see bluesky as generally hostile is symptomatic of an awful trend in radicalism across the internet and we should figure out why that is happening instead of being okay with it

'Olga Nesterova: "As part of the red carpet treatment, Saudi officials arranged for a fully operational mobile McDonald's unit to accompany President Trump during his stay." A skeptical news consumer might be inclined to pause for a moment at the phrase /fully operational, mobile McDonald's Unit/, [...] ' A fast food tanker makes sense only on a continuum with Trump's executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America, his spitballing about annexing Greenland, or turning Canada into a state. It goes on and on. [...]'

that's a pity, Luxembourg has a really nice embassy
A photo of the embassy of the united states located in Luxembourg. The building is in the classical style and in this particular image there are several people standing on the curved driveway up to the embassy's entrance, which possesses a pillared awning. The building itself has a short spire in the back and a many-gabled roof, all painted white.

bring on more space feminism that aims to put the "ass" in "yassified"

I can't wait for this to inspire another generation of women to make sure they have makeup on whenever they do anything challenging
A picture of text from the originatinf article that says: "This whole thing certainly speaks to me as a woman with great ambition. Any time I have written a sentence that feels true, or on days I’ve run a faster 5k than ever before, I have had but one wish: “If I looked beautiful right now, everything would be perfect.” That wish is always followed by a second one: “I wish there was glam in space.” And now, thanks to Perry, there is. That is why representation matters, and that is why we need to get every woman into space as soon as possible."

this @cbsnews.com article is misleading

@signal.org's encryption is not vulnerable to decryption - it is end-user devices that are vulnerable. Compromising an 'account' is targeting someone's device so that they can access chats.

it turns out that whether or not you would pick the bear they will still show up at your house
Screenshot of text from the adjoining article: accurately be described as laissez-faire. When Graftonites sought help from New Hampshire Fish and Game officials, they received little more than reminders that killing bears without a license is illegal, and plenty of highly dubious victim-blaming to boot. Had not the woman savaged by a bear been cooking a pot roast at the time? No? Well, nevertheless. Even when the state has tried to rein in the population with culls, it has been too late. Between

I read this in a single sitting.

It has everything:

Fires in LA,
Commentaries on capitalism,
A queer mountain lion,
A book being held by someone's hand with the words open throat on the cover but sculpted in the form of teeth inside of a mountain lion's mouth. The book cover is Pink and the author is Henry Hoke. Underneath the book is a notebook and another book and a cup of coffee are visible in the background sitting on a wooden table.

Um WHAT?
A screenshot of text that says "this may explain why neom, the new city being constructed in Saudi Arabia ( which has been tied to the network State movement and is located inside an SEZ), has led to the death of so many migrant construction workers (reportedly, a whopping 21,000 people have died while building up the new massive urban project). Thus such setups are able to "solve" the problem of inefficient labor regulation by simply not protecting their workers."

I cannot tell you how pleased I am with the way @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social books weather with travel.

It is a joy to have watched this book age with the places it has gone
A matte blue book held on someone's knee on which the text "the book of all loves" by Agustin Fernández Mallo Is written. The book is weathered and the edges of the blue have been torn to white. The holder is sitting on an airplane waiting lounge bench.

A hand holding three coca leaves in front of a salt flat. Only the fingers of the hand are visible and there is a tattoo on the wrist that looks like a bass clef but is not. There's a mountain far off in the distance.
