The catastrophic system collapse of the combined failures of patriarchy, capitalism and the concept of a punishing god, is fuelled by the perpetual harm, from one generation to the next, on all humanity. Social systems based on myths of dominance harm everyone. Men are not ok, either.

No to surveillance state. Yes to making digital technology a public utility governed by citizen leadership.

We have had digital technology for 30 years. We didn't need massive AI capacity then and we don't need it now. It is a massive waste of resources across multiple dimensions. Reject AI. Reject big tech. Public digital infrastructure utilities. Now.

For those of you facing the awesome responsibility of caring for children, those who cannot fend for themselves due to illness or injury, frail elders, or simply looking after yourself, sometimes it is hard to switch off the day and get some sleep. substack.com/profile/4281...

Nature abides. Humanity evolves.

NO PALANTIR IN CANADA. NO AI DATA CENTRES IN CANADA. We need to turn our tech infrastructure into a public utility and operate it as a public service. Tech is not a reliable citizen to be controlling critical communications networks.

Our greatest acts of of resilience and connectivity are creative. We find new paths, new openings, new encounters to build strength in our communities and neighbourhoods. When we support our local creative workers we support growth and innovation. substack.com/profile/5137...

Please take some time to check out the interview that I did with @blackgirlinmaine.bsky.social back in April. I'm incredibly appreciative for Shay taking the time to speak with me and for writing up such a thoughtful piece. shaystewartbouley.substack.com/p/the-us-sen... #mepolitics

Did you know that there will be ebola at the UFC match at the White House and everyone attending will be infected as a sign of macho superiority? I don't know where I heard this.

Our independent creative works are the antidote to nihilistic commodification of sensation. Our efforts to make sense provide tracings to sense-making for ourselves and each other. We find each other and connect through our creative works. Self-sustaining creative work is not commodification.

Everyday I learn something new. Nature is truly a magical place.

There is no question the toll human activity has taken on increasing risk to nature and natural environments. This is what we can and must change. How do we see ourselves in relation to nature? Do we understand we are inseparable? We do not exist without a healthy planet?

Dear Humans, we absolutely must stop the catastrophic decimation of life on earth to feed our insatiable need for imagined superiority or dominance. We must return to a way of life that sustained us over hundreds of thousands of years. We can do it. We just have to decide. We are the deciders.

Working to build social ecologies of learning, of growing, of evolving. We broaden our perspectives and deepen our understanding through appreciating each other's creative works. We build community through the gifting of creative works across generations. substack.com/profile/5137...

I would never trust PP to help struggling homeowners to find financial and housing security.

I now understand the utter misery of the ruling class. How insecure, petty, revengeful, desperate, fragile, ugly their lives are. They exercise their power in a futile attempt to bolster their absence of self-worth. Our creative works are the antidote. substack.com/profile/3678...

When times are troubling the courageous look inward to figure out how and where we can improve life on earth. I have started a self-portrait. This is the first structural layer. substack.com/profile/3678...

If we reject AI the billionaires will lose money. That is very much a satisfying non-violent action against the oligarchy. Reject them. They will fail.

I’ll always be forever respectful to honor those fallen in the cause of freedom, at home & around the world, and those that would carry on for us all from where they fell. @jennyarntzen.bsky.social

Thank you for sharing. We need more of this in the world.

I avoid Home Depot if I possibly can. I shop at Canadian Tire or Rona before I will go to Home Depot. Defund Home Depot.

There is something that I need to do. Oh, yes, I remember. I need to save humanity from itself. Which means I need to save myself from myself. I need to be the best person I can be today so I can change the course of human history.

Added layers of ink to add tone - combinations of Indigo and Burnt Umber ink to make the wash tints. The crow is perched on a decaying wooden fence. The fence paint is peeling, the wood is rotting and falling away. The crow is outside a house. The house has a window, but the crow cannot see in.

Please organize and sue the billionaires for every single crime against humanity.

Thankfully, I have only seen a couple of these monstrosities in my neighbourhood. My reaction is to cringe, and then to imagine the driver as the most cringey person ever and to vow to avoid any proximity to someone cringey enough to want to own a monstrosity of Musk.

When we divest our households from plastics and oil, we cause a tiny, tiny impact to loosen the stranglehold of fossil fuels and their role in perpetrating crimes against humanity. Today I will not drive my car. I will strive create food security with my garden. I will sing a song to give hope.

Dear People of Ukraine, Know that I am thinking of you everyday and doing what I can, from my modest perch, to bring down the forces that are attacking you.

There is something seriously wrong with the mental health of the people in Israel. They can no longer claim any moral high ground for having survived the holocaust. Our traumatic genocide origin story does not gives us licence to commit genocide.

The fact that our government, our economy, our education systems and our judicial systems are all under the leadership of people who carry a deep, soul destroying, shameful secret, explains why nothing makes sense right now. Their leadership is broken. Their trust is broken. They are broken people.

When we are in an ongoing, daily attack of lies, manipulation, discrimination, corruption and favouritism, it can be hard to maintain our own sense of reality. That is why we need each other. "Did you see that?" "Yes, I did." "That was crazy, mean, weird, dishonest, criminal, etc." "Yes, it was."

Be aware of the effect certain kinds of speech are designed to elicit. If there is any sense of division, of negativity toward the very people you are hoping to work with to bring down toxic dictatorial government, be suspicious of bad actors working to manipulate your sentiments.

What Hitler and the Nazis did was wrong. The genocide of Jewish people was a crime against humanity. What Isreal is doing is wrong. The genocide of Palestinians is a crime against humanity. The victims of the holocaust do not want to be used as a rationale to victimize the people of Palestine.

There is no both sides to crimes against humanity. What Bluesky community gives me is a place to shore up my values and beliefs that are under attack every single day by a coordinated effort to convince me my perceptions are invalid, my life doesn't count, and patriarchy is the only way.

We don't need a golden arch We don't need a ballroom with a hospital bunker We need a responsible president responsible Supreme Court or responsible Senate and House of Representatives and some understanding that government is for the people not against the people

Israel must be condemned for crimes against humanity. Israel must be called to account for the genocide it is perpetrating against Palestine and Lebanon. No free pass for Israel. Hurt people hurt people. Hurt people have to stop hurting people.

Nope. Not the military. Not Congress. It's up to US! We need to FLOOD THE STREETS of Washington DC in sustained nonviolent protest demanding--and accepting nothing less than--removal of the fascist Trump regime. RefuseFascism.org Join us!

I'm good with numbers and a certified project manager. Can I be on the team?

I have been an early tech adopter since 1988. Now I avoid using it except in very controlled, very intentional ways. No online shopping. That is for sure.

754 am - oh dear the day is getting underway and I am already falling behind. Thimbleberries, salmonberries, blueberries, raspberries. Transforming boulevards into food.

I stand with Greenland. "Go Home USA". End the corruption. End the cruelty. End the devastation. End the insanity.

I am feeling inspired by all your good works in the world. Everyday I run out of time to make headway on all my creative projects. I work in a no-profit zone. I am anti-capitalist. I believe my work should elevate our concepts of what it means to be human. We need a hard re-set.

Dr. Jasmine Clark PhD microbiology from Emory University, teaching anatomy & microbiology to future nurses, & tracking threats. 2017, watching the new administration removed science funding, public health infrastructure, and the institutions she had devoted her career to, she picked up a campaign.

This entire Republican 'economy' is simply the most massive money laundering scheme ever implemented on earth, combined with human trafficking. None of this is rationale, manageable, or sustainable. Bring them all to justice. Follow the money. Can I start a new career now as a forensic accountant?

They all went through the same hazing process, of watching each other sexually violate children, violently assault them, and, I have no doubt, in some cases, kill those children. They are bonded by their violence and shame. None of them should be paid government funds or prosper.

Out of the ashes of corruption and desolation will spring new life, new social systems and new organizational structures. We are going to remove and replace every vestige of patriarchy, capitalism and corrupt, abusive religion. In their place we will create health, equality, and great art.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

What does it mean when multiple profiles use the same text for their intro: "I use the Blue Sky platform to stay informed about politics, sports, and technology, broadening my horizons while avoiding advertising distractions." Is it a sign of bot farming?
