Canada is so awesome. It's not pride month here. It's "PRIDE SEASON", from June 1 to September. And the Canadian government website mentions that some communities even hold pride events year-round. Happy pride season. I'm a proud ally. 🌈🍁 www.canada.ca/en/women-gen... #pride #lgbtq #2SLGBTQ

First #rhubarb cake of the season! #garden #FoodSky #TotallyKeto

Epic win. Haze Fiend defeated. The acolytes live to fight another day. #AeonsEnd #StayHomeSunday #BoardGame #GameSky

Books and reading #121 Wise words from the great American broadcaster Walter Kronkite. #bookstagram #readersofinstagram

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

Made this #LizardRidge #blanket about 10 years ago, but it's still one of my faves. #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky #NoroKureyon 🧶

Somewhere right now, a knitter is buying more yarn to finish a project they started to “use up stash”. #knitting

As an anthropologist, I endorse this message!

They stole the internet’s knowledge and all the work that went into it and they want to sell it back to us for a fee. What a business model.

I can't wait for this to finally come out. It's been a long kickstarter wait. But soon now. #KnitSky 🧶

I guess my only real problem with AI is that it doesn't work, uses all the water, makes the worst people who ever slime-trailed across this green earth richer, gives monsters cover to crater organizations, destroys lives in both obvious & subtle ways & also isn't even AI. Besides that, I'm for it.

Yes!

Data centres 🤮🔪

The Danish gov’t has installed floating platforms planted with wildflowers and native vegetation in the harbors and canals of Copenhagen, to create urban habitat sanctuaries for birds, bees, pollinators, insects, and even some aquatic life. #FlowersOfBluesky #InnovativeSolutions💡

FFS!!!

This. God, this. It is such a manufactured panic and it started the moment they lost the fight over gay marriage. Support trans rights because it’s the right thing to do and also because this is all just a fascist push

you know how badly you have to fuck up to throw a WORLD CUP and have nobody come?

Texas water belongs to Texans, not the Tech Barons. Every Texan needs clean, reliable water to live, work, and raise a family. We should not sacrifice our future so corporations can make another billion. Sign our petition to fight for Texas water >> www.claytontuckertx.com/water #Texas #Water

I hope Massey who saw the unredacted files spends the next 7 months naming names!

"Fake citations have turned into a nightmare for research librarians, who by some estimates are wasting up to 15 percent of their work hours responding to requests for nonexistent records that ChatGPT or Google Gemini alluded to." open access link: archive.ph/qt59c 2/🧵

Published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. An antiviral pill has, for the first time, been shown to prevent COVID-19 in individuals exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Ensitrelvir blocks the enzyme coronaviruses need to make new copies of themselves.

FYI to put things into perspective. These are not normal times.

It’s not that the president has some mysterious ability to “do whatever he wants” It’s that Senators are choosing not to stop him, even though they could

BAN DATA CENTERS,NOW !......

SUATMM!

Surely the cannibalisation of the US health infrastructure is not going to present a problem here.

“Someone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath 50 reasons for more walkable streets.

this is such a great encapsulation of what the various factions of the reactionary right want. i might add that they envision themselves as slave masters and the rest of us, in one way or another, as their slaves. betterdonkey.substack.com/p/the-vra-wa...

And requiring 5 times the power and water supplied to surrounding counties.

It’s so strange living in a functionally illiterate society. I end up in these text conversations where I have to say the same thing over and over because the reader skimmed or missed what I was saying. This will be about making arrangements to meet or exchange plants or whatever.

Israel’s efforts to influence the vote for the Eurovision Song Contest to improve its international reputation were far broader than previously known, a New York Times investigation found. Here is the inside story of the controversy that almost broke Eurovision. nyti.ms/3Rellcg

The U.S. government requires visa applicants to make all of their social media accounts fully public or risk being denied entry. This is straight out of 1984. Your right to privacy doesn’t just disappear at the border for millions of people, it disappears before they ever set foot here.

New article on all the media outlets now partnered with OpenAI. For writers with integrity, who don't want their work vacuumed up by evil AI companies, the list of publishing options is getting shorter and shorter. Read it below ... www.realtimetechpocalypse.com/p/the-guardi...

Ravelry says I have 13 WIPs, but that's an unlucky number, so let's go with 12. 😎 #ShowMeYourKnits #KnitSky 🧶

And how is your long weekend going? (Even the dog did a double-take at the missing cabinet door next to her feeding station.) #SpringIsRenovationSeason

Yeah, thru natural gas. That headline is lipstick on a pig.

Preach it.

The spin and marketing speak in this is dizzying. I'm over here 🤮 Tl;dr: We're going to ignore how much cheaper and lower emission renewables are, and will instead throw good money after bad (Who even cares about the environment WE LIVE IN at this point?) to pacify greed. @mark-carney.bsky.social

So. Much. This.

I liked this article: "Meet the NIMBY’s Toxic Cousin: the NOMS (Not On My Street)" about growing hostility to any road modifications to add room & safety for buses, cyclists, pedestrians usa.streetsblog.org/2026/05/06/m... (found via @theoverheadwire.com)

Chaaarge!

Things are progressing. I'm currently working on the looong bottom band of my Mrs.Garter cardi. #LightItUpMAL #knitting #KnitSky 🧶
