One of the worst parts of the modern condition is having to listen to billionaires airing out the stupidest policy ideas, random musings, and other mental detritus. It’s unbearable.

@climateconnections.bsky.social: “Eight of the top 10 online shows are spreading climate misinformation” By YCC Staff “As more people experience the firsthand effects of climate-change-juiced-up heat waves, hurricanes, wildfires, and crop failures, a new kind of climate denial has emerged.”

Larry David writing a NYT guest essay as a man having dinner with Hitler, just to roast Bill Maher as a smug, self-important clown, is the stuff of comedy legend. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/o...

“America’s standing as a superpower is in jeopardy, our safety and that of our allies is at risk, and that day-by-day as we become weaker, our enemies and rivals are being made stronger by the actions of the president and his team.”

“don’t be a passive observer of the decline of society…you’ll sleep better at night if you’re trying.” @ayanaeliza.bsky.social on We Can Do Hard Things

Thanks to @dpcarrington.bsky.social and @theguardian.com for their big push on the #The89Percent starting today www.89percent.org

The majority of people —56% in the US!—are worried about climate change, but not activated. Why not? Most feel helpless, hopeless, and don't know what to do. So more fear won't activate them. Rather, knowing what to do—and being invited to do it—will. Where to start? With a conversation today. 🧵

“Mr. Prada’s disappearance has created concerns that more immigrants have been deported to El Salvador than previously known. It also raises the question of whether some deportees may have been sent to other countries with no record of it.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/u...

Yes, this has been the Meta plan since at least 2020, as @monikab.bsky.social and I reported www.motherjones.com/media/2020/1...

News Analysis: The Trump administration's mistakes, miscommunications and flip-flops are piling up after an early run defined by a flood of major policy changes that were rolled out at breakneck speed.

“The work of the mature person is to carry grief in one hand and gratitude in the other and to be stretched large by them." -Francis Weller Join us for our upcoming workshop "Both / And: Weaving Grief and Gratitude" Sunday 23rd March 2025; 7-9pm CET/2-4pm EST bit.ly/43kTR8X

"As I trace the braid of sweetgrass between my fingers, I am braiding myself back into this ancient wisdom, a radical remembering of something I never should have forgotten."

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Legacy media is largely ignoring this: Scientists for Big Oil warned 50+ years ago that fossil fuel exploitation will cause climate catastrophe. Big Oil destroyed the climate anyway—and now are lobbying politicians for corporate immunity We cannot let that happen www.qasimrashid.com/p/big-oils-l...

We just wanted to take a moment to thank all our new supporters! Tomorrow, there will be more of us!

Every person on Bluesky should know: * Every post on Bluesky is PUBLIC forever * Every post on Bluesky is archived by ICE, NSA, and many other agencies * Even if you delete a post, it’s already been captured * Judges don’t care if you were “kidding” or being ironic www.404media.co/the-200-site...

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

After ICE came knocking at her door, a Fulbright scholar at Columbia University fled to Canada. “The atmosphere seemed so volatile and dangerous. So I just made a quick decision.”

In some ways, COVID shrank the distance between musicians and listeners. But then, it also threw nearly everything about the industry into disarray, and for many, things have never been the same.

Get rid of this ridiculous “boys club” called DOGE. Stealing from the poor and vets is unconscionable. 😡

Elon Musk claims "the leftists" are bad-mouthing his company. This isn't true. It's ordinary car buyers who are fed the fuck up.

When will we have had enough? When it’s too late to matter? 😣 #Resist now or forever hold absolutely nothing.

Trump is moving to destroy Voice of America. VOA employees were informed this morning that they are being placed on administrative leave: www.reuters.com/business/med...

LA Times just published this trash piece by a vehement Islamophobe. There are literally museums with exhibits of media supporting what the Nazis did. LA Times is owned by a Trump sycophant. This is what happens when billionaires run media. Posting my rebuttal soon: Www.Qasimrashid.Com/subscribe

Nietzsche on truth, lies, the power and peril of metaphor, and how we use language to both reveal and conceal reality:

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

My grandmother and great aunt were rounded up in Nazi Germany. Be warned folks, we’re not that far from it happening to you.
