Wife: How’s the K-pop demon hunting?
Me, pausing: It’s not about hunting demons! It’s about losing the unique light you shine into the world because of the shame you carry when the person who was supposed to love you most couldn’t love all of you! It’s about turning fear into POWER!

This whole thread is 🔥. And this final question applies to more than just Tate, it’s the men & boys sucking Musk’s teet, & others of their ilk. Losers every one, yet still men flock to them as “masculine”. No, they’re just toxic. Here’s a whole thread of better.
There are other options, other models, other men. Good men. There *always have been* & I believe from my heart *will* be. Why aren’t men, young men, guys, boys, en masse embracing them? What will it take for society to stop making excuses?
So many nice guys win. Why do you choose to follow losers?

USAID matters. I've often disagreed with their strategy and choices, but their work saves more lives than any philanthropy can. It's a rounding error in the federal budget, and one of the best things we do as a country. To see it destroyed overnight by one unelected man is an unmitigated horror.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines.
The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds.
It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

contrary to what some people say, there is a way to tell if an artist you love is problematic. the first thing you need is a really, really big scale. the old fashioned hanging kind with a pan on each side. next you need a feather, preferably from an ostrich. now comes the hard part,

My own opinion is that it's good to signal (through words and/or actions) the virtues that you value; that's one of the most important parts of maintaining a healthy community.

Midway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog, making him sink

Jimmy Carter Appreciation 🧵:
As we mourn Carter's death, there will be lots of discussion of his presidency and his post-presidential exploits, including his work with @habitatforhumanity.bsky.social and the @cartercenter.bsky.social.
But I want to talk about Carter and the federal judiciary....

If you get intimidated by the idea of “writing” a song, you can always try framing it as “making up” a song.
Just makin’ up a li’l song! I bet you already make up li’l songs to sing to your pets or that bagel you’re about to eat!

I am bombarded with missives claiming that AI can "level-up" educators by helping them work "faster and smarter." These are euphemisms for producing education-related artifacts (lesson plans, grading, etc) more efficiently, but in what ways is increased efficiency related to better student learning?

Yo, these students' takeaways from "Dungeons & Dragons: Skills IRL?" this last semester gonna make my pain water come up.
This one hit: "One of the biggest takeaways I got from this class was how power structures influence the stories we tell and believe, and how important it is to question them."
