'Well done, thou good and faithful servant.' 🙏🏾✝️🙏🏾

While we live our lives and complain... 😭😭😭 youtu.be/rMcASjd5dJI?...

There is a South African, green card holding citizen in ICE detention. I kid you not.

Ah, Cape Town! 😍

This is such an elegant showing of the middle finger to Trump. 🙌🏽🔥🙌🏽 youtube.com/shorts/Xof9F...

Hiked 5 miles and 15 floors today! MN Landscape Arboretum Saw an egret too! See comments for more photos if you want. 😂

Reminder: the sincere love & grace that you extend to folks around you for their mistakes? For them feeling low? That's good; the world needs it. You know what's simultaneously true? You get to extend sincerity of love & grace to yourself, too. Because you, too, are deserving.

They've been affected by the Trump virus? bbc.com/news/article...

Doc @thanhneville.medsky.social - you've seen this? undark.org/2025/03/06/o...

Chinese president Xi Jinping is going to eat Donnie's breakfast, I suspect. Trump underestimates Chinese pride and clout. This bully-boy isolation game ain't going to end well. #PrayForAmericans

These MAGA-Nazi types are so classy and well-mannered, aren't they?

It turns out the hard part of programming is trying to figure out how to update something without breaking it. "Changing the engine in a car while it's speeding down the highway" as they say.

Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you. 🙌🏽🔥🙌🏽

The incredible insouciance of the 'Chief Executive' of 30 years of #ANC political party failure to deliver growth in South Africa. Rejecting out of hand a plea and recommendation from CEOs who successfully run enormous companies. Overweening hubris. businesstech.co.za/news/governm...

A physician in Indonesia just emailed me asking for advice on how to start a @3wishesprogram.bsky.social! How cool is that?! #Kindness is spreading. #EOLCare

THIS IS WHAT A TRADE WAR LOOKS LIKE -

So many people showed up! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

Mousetrap at the Guthrie was so good!! 🐭🪤 I am so grateful for thd Guthrie for providing plays with captioning! We stopped going to plays because even with my implants, I can’t “hear” words. Photos from the theater windows! @guthrietheater.bsky.social

We just got a permanent court order stopping the Trump administration from cutting billions in NIH funding. This is a win for science, public health, and the rule of law.

Very, very expensive golf games. While millions of Americans have their economic viability threatened.

Embrace the weekend with Ninja. #FeralRescue

#Wisconsin - good on ya! You did the right thing. Bravo!

Whatever happened to judicial independence and the separation of powers? Now we have Trump by proxy, playing prosecuter, judge, jury and executioner. Déjà vu the Central Park 5 debacle, anyone?

@wendyloveswalking.bsky.social - Sadlers Wells dance company - a sensory adapted performance. So considerate. Please switch on captions to 'hear' about it. youtube.com/shorts/HErlU...

A sleepy Betty. Our rescue semi-feral, who made me wait 4 years before being allowed to touch her. Now she can't get enough chin scritches and overall cuddles. Love conquers.

Heart-breaking read. A wounded veteran serving other veterans. Dumped by DOGE and abandoned by the system. Oh, America... 😭 www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/u...

Oh dear. A tiff in the bromance? 😂

Had more white people acknowledged that they benefited from apartheid, South Africa might actually be much further in its reconciliation project.

Right now, politically, everything seems quite serious, which is why it is worth turning to the satirists and comedians who can send up the world’s big men and show us alternative realities.

Brava! Halala! 🙌🏽🔥🙌🏽

Delightful bit of weekend humour. Mum's cackles of merriment off-camera, are a hoot. Listen out for the 'ran out of toner' wisecrack. #BiracialBunfight youtube.com/shorts/MMNM9...

White South African here. At no risk of being genocided. But I continue to be mystified that the courts in our country, including the apex Constitutional Court, refuse to concede that the supposed 'struggle song' using the words, 'Kill the boer, kill the farmer' is not hate speech.

Dear Trumpists, please note. 👇🏾

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Time to remind people to share the lovely art created or shared by our Bluesky neighbours! Art feeds the soul.

The controversy over Lamar’s performance highlights the hypocrisy around the DEI backlash; experts say the term has come to serve as a modern-day slur wielded against people of color, while at the same time, the people offended by it see themselves as being victims of a lack of diversity.

My late mother worked in shipping during WWII. They were drilled in the maritime version of this: 'Loose lips sink ships.'

Brain drain from USA academia = brain gain for Canada. Bravo!

There's a saying in the east, that where western psychology ends, eastern psychology begins. The same seems to apply to #neuroscience research in which the focus is on the brain (considered to be hardware in the east) and nothing about the mind (software).

Got to give credit to South African governing party, the ANC, for their stellar corruption levels. Pulling off a failure of this magnitude takes real talent. Imagine if they applied those same er, cough, 'entreprenurial' skills in an ethical way? mybroadband.co.za/news/energy/...

You missed saying, 'Lettuce begin.'

Time to get him a paint brush. The Sharpie is no longer up to the escalating size of that signature.

Like pre-teens playing fast and loose with emojis. Now that truly is pathetic.

I'm editing an ESG report and they keep mentioning "fugitive emissions" and my brain is just too literal sometimes. 😄
