Thank you for remembering her.
That is amazin
Thanks for this, Meg.
I'm still reading 'Baldwin: a love story' and 'Blood in the Machine' about the Luddites (s/o @bcmerchant.bsky.social ). With every Black activist slain and young person putting their body on the line so regular folx get treated with dignity, I'm reminded that our struggle has long been the same.
Doesn't Death Valley kill a couple of European tourists each year bc they did not account for how massive it is, and then they try to drive across without enough supplies?

Heard. Even though I only used it for timers and weather, when Amazon upgraded their siri to use genAI I finally unplugged it for good.
Today is the 36th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl and disabled people are still fighting for basic rights in a society that's actively working to undermine them, surrounded by systemic disablism.
(This is a corrected thread TY to the person who flagged that I said 26th, not 36th!)
This is a huge step forward.

"One cannot understand the Iran War without understanding the Kahanists. But I rarely see analysts mention them. Maybe they did, and it was behind a paywall. If a war crime is subscription-only, does it make a sound? Is that sound a stifled scream?"

Yay! Teaching consent to the babies!
