that they have kept their relationship intensely private to the point that this is how we find out is probably the best sign they might actually make it

There is no such thing as a legitimate war
There is no justification for killing children and sick people

Old white, greedy, genocidal men in suits who suck up to billionaires are the problem.

I can’t imagine how complicated today has been for folks who are Iranian and Iranian American. My heart is with you as you and your families navigate the complexities and the challenges your people face today and in the coming weeks.

AYMAN: Can you tell me where Iran killed thousands of Americans in America?

ANNA PAULINA LUNA: I said they are responsible for thousands of Americans being killed

AYMAN: Where?

LUNA: Are you serious right now?

AYMAN: It seems like you don't want to have a good faith conversation

I get why/that people say this, but dont' underestimate this:

all other social networks are invested in making sure that posts that link to journalism remain buried, or at least never go viral.

BlueSky doesn't do that. That makes it very valuable to a ton of newsrooms righ tnow.

really one of the strangest media cycles in history, where mainstream media actively hid the fact that the columbine killers were popular upper class preppy kids with full on neo-nazi ideologies and instead pretended they were victims of bullying

Fake post about death toll in Iran.

This is a fake, and the post has thousands of likes and reposts inflated by a bot army. Report and block.

just became aware of this--the regime wants to clear-cut massive chunks of Oregon's old growth forests in the name of timber production.

you have until March 23rd to comment.

i know we have endless fucking things to scream at politicians about--this is an important one too.

Yes. *Yes.* β€œMegachurchification,” soft rock-lite worship music, and… not a hymnal anywhere in sight.

Many of us learned how to read music from those old hymnals, and so did our most talented musicians and singers! (Grew up with the New National Baptist hymnal πŸ₯Ή)

Did you know that the bees that need saving are NOT honeybees?

Honeybees are the dairy cows of bees. People brought them over from Europe to make us honey.

The problem with honeybees, esp in resource-limited ecosystems (like hey! cities!) is that they compete with our native bees for food.

We've been getting calls from the country, thanking us for fighting back against AI Data Centers.

I talked to some folks from Wisconsin. They told me they wanted to stop the centers because they didn't have the water for them.

If they don't have the water for them, then how the hell do we?
