Here is @aoc.bsky.social thankfully telling everyone exactly what to do to stop a concentration camp from being built where you live. Please take it to heart and take action.

A remarkably disheartening thing is you get the sense there are a handful of genuine historic fork in the road moments of what kind of country we want in our lifetime, and I still can’t shake how much during the height of Covid we had a decision of what lessons we’d all take from it and what…

What's an objectively mediocre or downright garbage food that you will love forever?

“It also takes a lot of energy to train a human” is diabolical

We got this bb & her troop to their goal in under a day. Keep on ordering & donating so they have even more funding for their work (and play)!

One of the best uses of social media 🤌

The Sun-Times and WBEZ have published about 20 stories and audio pieces this week about the Rev. Jesse Jackson, showing how his civil rights work intersected with film, education, Chicago mayors and much more. So, here's an ICYMI thread with some highlights. 🧵

so, it's ✨ Shameless Self Promotion Saturday ✨ can you spare $1 (one dollar) a month? it would literally change our life. literally. one.

When Minnesotans were talking about “not letting this happen to our neighbors,” this is the heartbreaking “this” they meant

anyone happen to know of any published academic work where a researcher tracked themself being surveilled? surveillance studies autoethnography? or any qualitative research about surveillance systems like Flock or Ring?

Got my order in! 🍪 The girls are so close to their goal of going to Europe. Let's help them get there! 🫶🏽

"Rich asshole says some baseless shit" should not be news.

NH state house passes "CHARLIE Act," which bans teaching, I kid you not, "critical consciousness" & "prohibited world-views," such as that queer people exist, or that slavery involved race, or, implicitly, that the Nazis murdered Jews based on identity. newhampshirebulletin.com/2026/02/19/h...

I love it when @tressiemcphd.bsky.social gives no f**ks

Trans rights was always going to end like this and if you thought they’d “settle” for “reasonable regulations” you’re a clown Trans rights have always been human rights Fucking disgusting

i've decided not to listen to the audio of a teacher reporting a kindergartender because frankly I don't want to become the person that that event would turn me into. but one thing I hope we are collectively coming to grips with is what it meant that we have lived among such people this whole time

In recognition of #WorldPangolinDay, we share this beautiful Chinese pangolin (Manis pentadactyla), now critically endangered. #SciArt by Frederick Polydore Nodder from George Shaw's The Naturalist's Miscellany V. 1 (1789-1813) in #BHLib via #MuseumsVictoria www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/40297096

Damnit, the rest of the audiobooks in the space opera I've been binging are audible exclusives 😭😭 Worse, they're too new to have ever been published on CD 🫠🫠🫠🫠 I'll have to read the rest the old fashioned way but now I need a new series to binge. Can't be left alone with my thoughts!

Obviously like everyone I love this post. But also, everything is like this. If you simply water it it will grow.

Wikipedia having to rip out hundreds of thousands of archive links bc the archive was run by a completely unhinged person is such an old-school internet story tbh, we generally do unhinged at a much larger scale, now.

The problem is that with archive .org under threat, archive .today feels like a necessary alternative. But it’s not trustworthy.

OpenAI knew and did nothing. This company is fundamentally evil. Their products have already been responsible for the deaths of multiple teens from suicide.

BREAKING: Governor Pritzker @GovPritzker has just demand $8.6 BILLION or $1,700 per family in Illinois in tariff refund money from President Trump. Every American should demand a refund based on the fact that the Trump Tariffs were an ILLEGAL tax on American importers.

What the hell are these claims about companies getting reimbursed for illegal tariffs about, as if those costs weren't passed in full on to us?

Also and I’m gonna say it again All of the “child protection laws” these folks are pushing would make it HARDER for kids to report abusers and access real information

This is your regularly scheduled reminder that (timing/scheduling dependent) I am happy to talk about sharks, marine biology, and ocean conservation on your podcast.

I actually do this all the time. (Though I never say why, I just say “I’m having a bad brain day”) especially when it happens on D&D days and because my friends are all the right people they immediately understand and give me a little more time to get my thoughts out.

I just got some. There are some great new flavors

Trump as president ending up somehow owing the American people $175 billion feels like we let a LLM write history

To my mind, this is the single tweet that explains 95% of the energy behind the MAGA movement.

*looks directly into the camera Marxistly*

Incredible.

like it's a little cute to believe the behemoths of the industry would care that you think their product is worse. what are you gonna do about it? and they'd gladly take a hit to sales if it allows a bigger cut to labor on the back end

Being transphobic as a Black woman when you are one of the main targets of transphobia is so counterproductive and senseless. Now don’t hit me with the “What are you talking about I’m not trans”. How many white folks done called you manly or a man cause you’re big or darkskin or tall, or “strong”?
