😁 I love seeing 3 of my dear friends giving the keynotes at @kcduk.bsky.social day 2! 💙 Great work @lianmakesthings.bsky.social @mccune.org.uk @wiggitywhitney.bsky.social 🎉

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

Feel like this security concept wasn’t quite thought through

6 days left for your Rejekts proposal... just one day of programming this year, so competition for spots will be tighter than usual!

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people. Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

There’s no question that the Catholic Church has deep flaws. But at a time when we need allies to fight AI, its moral framing of the issue, grounded in real-world problems instead of sci-fi fantasies, could be useful in building a larger coalition against AI. www.disconnect.blog/p/will-pope-...

Later this month, @techwontsave.us turns five years old. It’s hard to believe I’ve been making the show for this long! Over that time I’ve interviewed hundreds of guests to spread critical perspectives on tech far and wide — and I know it’s had an impact.
