“When researchers asked more than 1,000 Americans to assign colors to robots according to the robot’s job, they found that biases familiar from the human workplace resurfaced—and that the people making the choices rarely recognized them as biases.”

"Family Time In Oregon" is the name of my new band.

I'm going to try to take most of the rest of the day off to enjoy some family time in Oregon. Have a good one ✌️

Incorrect. It’s a common way white people try to distance themselves from their [openly racist] fellow white people. Some of the most horrific racist ppl are some of the most intelligent. Racism does NOT rely on stupidity or lack of intelligence. Please change this incorrect notion in your head.

With the federal government consistently eliminating resources, Black farmers are encouraging their communities to shop local. https://capitalbnews.org/support-black-farmers-after-usda-cuts/

REMINDER: 1. Literally every white person is racist to some degree. 2. Racism benefits every white person (i.e., ‘white privilege’). 3. Only white people can do racist harm. 4. [w]hite people cannot be victims of racism. 5. Racism’s many benefits to all whites come at non-white people’s expense.

the real ceasefire is the insider trades we made along the way

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

China could invade Nigeria tomorrow and conquer the country. They could do what the US did to Venezuela or wants to do to Cuba. No one would or could stop them. But they don't. Because they are not as violent as us and don't see the world how we see it, and they make more money by not bombing kids

Jack is a very good boy who knows that when you need a job done right, hire a union worker.

After years of research, Daphna Renan & I are thrilled to announce preorders of SUPREMACY. Why is US democracy so broken? One reason is we've wrongly accepted that 9 justices have the final say over the Constitution. This book traces how that happened—& how we can reclaim power to govern ourselves.

White Supremacy Culture is the lens through which white ppl view and interact with the world—it also dictates much of mainstream culture & commerce. I’m a 1/2-white Black man, raised in large part by a white Boomer mom. Pls trust me when I tell you white ppl experience life through these 15 facets:

As Trump and MAGA GOP cite “Christian values” to threaten genocide of 90 million civilians, Iranian youth are forming human chains to peacefully protect their nation from illegal and violent attacks and atrocities. It is clear who is engaging in terrorism and who is peacefully upholding humanity.

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV declares the Iran War is “unjust” and “is not resolving anything.” After suggesting Trump is committing war crimes by targeting civilian infrastructure, he called on Americans to contact Congress to help end the war.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

Love seeing this because it means if the democrats don’t go with the obvious choice here they have to look us all in the eye and say they prefer losing to progress

we'll see how it shakes out over the course of years, but as of right now, mamdani is definitely showing how the future of good progressive governance means "use government to do good things and then post about it" both parts are important!

Read our summary about what happened in the latest meeting of the Universal Health Plan Governance Board. It is some dense and interesting stuff: how exactly do we as a state transition to universal health care plan for every person in Oregon?

Dem @colorado.gov Jared Polis thinks his party should talk more about climate change — and "center" their affordability plan around it. "I don't think there's any part of America that's been spared the impact of climate change," he told @zcolman.bsky.social on POLITICO Energy. 🎧 politi.co/4sOfPem

He spent years investigating Opus Dei, a Catholic group accused of a vast conspiracy of abuse. Then Pope Leo asked to meet

Since today is First Contact Day (the day in Star Trek when humans meet their first aliens, Vulcans) it’s worth talking about that story a bit and how it can inform our analysis of Artemis. This involves a lot of spoilers from the film Star Trek: First Contact 🖖🏽 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Tr...

STOP THEWAR! STOP THE WAR! STOP THE WAR! #NoKings #NoWar

Sadly, this ad is as pertinent today as it was in 1971. (Thank you, Indivisible Sequim Facebook poster for sharing this!) youtu.be/xmybpXwekR4?...

Seems to me if you think you have divine sanction for your warmongering when it goes badly you have to consider the opposite proposition but they never seem to!

Say it with your whole chest 📢 [10 FWY Santa Monica]

had to go see the landback skyscrapers for myself

Critics allege that teleportation is not a thing that happens. We'll have to leave it there.

Proud to say we here at Indivisible Waves were "not bad."

Now any white man promoted has to be considered suspect because he may well have taken the place of a more qualified black or female officer personally removed from the promotion list by Hegseth.

Here in Oregon, we believe in lifting up all communities. We all rise together. Thank you for raising your voices.

Everyone needs to know this.

I heard someone say that we should be registering voters at gas stations.

Coming up soon! RSVP’s encouraged. #savannahga #civicengagement #datacenter

Wow—the Pope is going with full-on liberation theology:

Timely and important thread. 😇

If you're on the coast on April 18, here's a festive event with music, food, and a lot of resistance to ICE in Lincoln County, Oregon! Bring your kids, grandkids, and doggos. Let's show them we know how to party. :)

To believe White Americans are being replaced by immigrants of color is to believe birthright citizenship is facilitating this replacement. To believe birthright citizenship is facilitating the imaginary great replacement is to believe ending this constitutional principle will save (White) America.

Just wait until these eyesore monstrosities want to come to your neighborhood. Goodbye trees. Expect to hear a constant, electrical humming, warmer temperatures and higher energy bills. Fight like hell to keep data centers out of your area.

“Never Interrupt Your Enemy When He’s Making a Mistake”

OK, Gorsuch is, like, REALLY not happy with the Trump administration's legal theories against birthright citizenship. He's starting to sound kind of pissed off at the solicitor general for peddling this garbage.

Man attempts to use AI generated lawyer. Man’s success does not ensue.

Mike Pence got totally owned here: Jewish plaintiffs won a ruling against Indiana's abortion ban, using the law he signed 11 years ago as governor to help evangelicals refuse to cater gay weddings and such. Now similar challenges could win in other red states. We tell the story at @forward.com.

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

#HumansOfBluesky 💙

🔥 Matt Grigsby at No Kings 3 spoke directly to those who still have a choice. "Maybe you know someone that made the terrible decision to join ICE. We want to tell them it's okay to change your mind." No badge is worth your soul. Walk away. We'll be here ✊️ #NoKingsDentonTX

This looks like a complicated chart, but in fact it's some of the simplest and best news imaginable: batteries are quickly turning night into noon. Worth a read if I say so myself open.substack.com/pub/billmcki...
