@buzzgrambo.bsky.social is another #AltCitizen finding their best way to resist and committing.
Not everyone is able to do what he does, so we're thankful for those like Buzz who put themselves out there.

Watching Karoline Leavitt spew her usual misinformation and divisive nonsense makes me wonder, why isn’t there a People’s press secretary?
Someone who stands at a podium, tells the truth, and gets covered too.
Democracy deserves balance, not propaganda.

It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.

ICE is building a 24/7 social media monitoring program that would scan Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and dozens of other platforms. Private contractors would turn public posts into enforcement leads fed directly into government databases. buff.ly/gXCFJBl

Is it just me or is there still a massive wildcard despite several Dems losing their spine? The House still has to return, Grijalva still has to be sworn in, and that will lead to a vote on the Epstein files. Am I missing something?

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

America had normal elections across the country today. An unpopular president’s party suffered a rebuke at the polls in sign that our system of democratic accountability still works.
The dangers to that system are real and remain, but our democracy is not dead yet.
It’s on us to keep it that way.

Why does everyone imagine that what creative people want (and I use that term broadly to include most "skilled" intellectual labor) is to replace their creative process with a machine?

Been rereading old posts that I & others wrote on October 7. This thread was from November 2023, just one month after the attack. It contains thoughts that have haunted me since, and will for many years to come, I suspect.
