I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter: Take Action: Our Data Shouldn't Be for Sale . Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/data...

Coming up this weekend!

This is maddening. meanwhile what about the children in MN subjected to tear gas? The peaceful protestors executed by ICE agents? Where is their compensation? thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/5809800-jan-6-rioters-seek-millions-in-lawsuit-accusing-police-of-excessive-force/

apnews.com/article/dona... 🤦 I'm really getting tired of being right.

Looks like these new zebras installed by @streets.boston.gov aren't very effective. What happened to the cast in place concrete plan? Will another bike rider have to die for @mayorwu.boston.gov to engage on this issue?

I recently reread Orwell's 1984 and lately keep thinking about the purpose of war. It was not to win but to create a climate of fear. Ultimately it was to keep people distracted and vulnerable and to use scarcity, poverty, ignorance, and fear as a way to keep people obedient.

Feb 3, 2025 - We started fighting to save our data. July 3, 2025 - We launched #SaveOurSigns with Minn librarians. April 2026 - We are still talking about the importance of public data as a public good. ❤️🛟

We’re partnering with a former USAID Foreign Service Officer & now graduate student at the University of Michigan School of Social Work on a new study documenting the human impact of the dismantling of USAID. 🔗 read more: oneaidcommunity.org/2026/03/28/s... 🔗 www.tinyurl.com/usaidimpactsurvey

Story in @politico.com today from @marciabrown.bsky.social and Paroma Soni on the decrease in farms and farmland. While the data is from the past four years, this has been a long-running issue in agriculture. (1/7)

HEY MASSACHUSETTS!! Do you know about the sex worker led activist group @bostonswac.bsky.social? Now you do! We're pushing for full decriminalization of sex work in MA and they current step is getting a bill pushed through to the MA House for a vote! Support here: actionnetwork.org/letters/supp...

plus the unwritten MA rule that once a light turns red, 3 more cars can go through it without consequence.

Let's focus on something we ALL agree on: #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files

Last year, Ioana Barbu became the first person to finish the Beyond the Ultimate Global Race Series in one calendar year — running 940 kilometers (584 miles) in four races across hostile and remote terrain in the Arctic, jungle, mountains and desert in self-sufficient, multi-stage ultra-marathons.

The ever-growing list to impeach: #impeach Russ Vought: actionnetwork.org/letters/proj... RFK jr: www.standupforscience.net/impeach-rfkj... Pete Hegseth: actionnetwork.org/letters/impe... Pam Bondi: actionnetwork.org/letters/figh...

They will not be out of office soon enough, & it takes far longer to fix & rebuild things than it takes to break them, which is why we need to do everything we can to stop them now.

I can also say it is frustrating when small town protests are ignored by national media. There were 167 protests in MA today. 3200 globally. My town population (Maynard) is under 11,000; we had about 1200 people show up.

Thanks to all who came out for #NoKings in Maynard, MA! @maddow.bsky.social Maynard population: 10,700 Est. crowd size: 1200! @maindivisible.bsky.social @mass50501.bsky.social @hcrichardson.bsky.social @wbur.org @npr.org @progressivemass.bsky.social @bostonglobe.com

this past summer I saw a bicycle-powered Amazon delivery vehicle in Amsterdam in Somerville Metro Pedal Power delivered food, picked up recycling and more and were often faster getting around the city than cars and needs less parking. Maybe not rescue dogs, but they could haul 650 lbs

It’s such a laughably bad argument for the war on Iran to say “The people there want regime change.” I want regime change in the US, and I 100% do not want the US to be bombed. F off with garbage arguments.

You can use this form to send a letter to Mayor Wu, the interim Chief of Streets, and your local city councilors Please feel free to customize it and tell your story of why safe streets are important to YOU in Boston bcu.bike/sscw

🧪This is important. Russel Vought fact check by @jenna-m-norton.bsky.social When a non-scientist says w/ certainty that NIH caused the Covid19 pandemic, it is a red flag & arrogance. His intention is to destroy science & implement Project 2025. Articles of impeachment have been drafted.

This is another one of those jump scare graphs, showing the number of 60°F days in Fort Collins, Colorado this winter compared to any prior season since the 1800s. More here: source.colostate.edu/colorado-rec... and via the @climate.colostate.edu.

For the first time in 30+ years, the Endangered Species Committee will convene on March 31, likely to consider Endangered Species Act exemptions for oil and gas activity in the Gulf. If granted, they could put critically endangered marine life at further risk of extinction.

They’ve already gutted what is allowed to be taught as sociology in FL public universities, which are some of the largest in the country.

From March 15 through March 26 there have been... More than 100 monthly records & more than 700 daily records broken or tied. Since March 1 there have been more than 1,100 daily records broken or tied across the nation. Some record heat will remain through the weekend for areas of the Southwest.

Oudone Lothirath missed four out of five chemotherapy appointments while in ICE detention and received no medical care there. Now he will likely die in a matter of days. www.startribune.com/how-ice-deta...

When we study disinformation, we are unmasking government ops, troll farms, and bot nets, while following trends in political wedge issues, and monitoring new techniques for manipulating public opinion. Now, there is a govt ban on researchers who study in this field from traveling to the US.

Keep it organic and creative. We have overwhelming people power when we coordinate here. It is my hope that we can put enough public pressure on Meta’s board and partners that Zuckerberg finally sees the error of his own ways. No racism, sexism, lgbtqa-phobia, but defective products are fair game

Taking a short break from talking about Jay B. Casey Means SG nomination is officially stalled. 🥳 🎉 Thank you to everyone who raised their voices and contacted their Senators. We are stronger together. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Reminder as everyone — correctly — talks about ICE in airports that armed troops are still walking around and that Trump plans to keep them here for the rest of his time in office.

Mar 28 4-6pm Veterans Memorial Park Our event is both a RALLY and a FOOD DRIVE Please bring a packaged food item to give to Open Table

An outstanding round-up from @jonathancohn.bsky.social re: Why @edmarkey.bsky.social and Why (resoundingly) *Not* @sethmoulton.bsky.social for #MASen -- in fact, the only receipt missing there on Seth Moulton is his PAC funds ethics complaint ( www.boston.com/news/politic... ). #mapoli #bospoli

I learned many things from @katharinehayhoe.com tonight (thanks @cafesottawa.bsky.social for hosting), but my main take away was to keep sharing my story. She delivers the same message again & again because people still get inspired and learn from it. Here's mine: www.forourkids.ca/family_ebike...

Some cats are just so damn cool.

"We negotiate with bombs"

The Department of Veterans Affairs has launched an expansive plan that threatens the civil rights of tens of thousands of veterans. The plan would funnel veterans facing homelessness into guardianship — stripping them of their ability to make decisions for themselves, often permanently.

This timeline is maddening @altepa456.bsky.social apnews.com/article/trum...

Even if you support surveillance, this should concern you. Flock Safety’s AI license-plate readers are expanding fast—and the data can be widely searched and used beyond local communities. Read why we say it’s a bad choice: www.mass50501.org/blog/even-if...
