Why does the last decade feel like we’re going back in time and only thing that advances is the technology but it’s not making anyone smarter or wiser, on the contrary it’s vice versa?

This whole situation is so morally wrong on so many levels

And it will get worse

It will get so much worse until it gets somewhat better

The question if we survive to see that “somewhat vague better” remains

I don’t know how the rest of the world, the Americans specifically, will be ethically ok with living for the rest of their lives knowing that not only they didn’t manage to help Ukraine invaded by Russia survive but also EXPLOITED us in the hour of need…for generations to come…

Dignity doesn’t have a price tag
Nor does freedom
Nor does justice
Courage
Sacrifice
Those things are priceless
No one should try to cash them in
They’ll only prove their own boundless ignorance

I wonder if the Founding Fathers knew that they had built this ship to wreck?

Exactly!! pay attention America

Hi Bluesky! Glad to be here.

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse.

Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

Dr. Rumman Chowdhury 00:36:07 Maybe this will sound a little bit nihilistic, but it did help me, right. All of these things, culture, institutions, these are all things we set up as human beings. They're concepts. They're actually not real physical things. And culture requires preservation. Institutions require preservation. We can't take them for granted. If you like the culture you are in, no matter what culture it is, you actually have to contribute to it. And to see how quickly it was taken away because of one man's looming threat was very sobering, and the fragility of it kind of still stays with me.

As as a leader of my own organization, I think about this a lot. My team and I are currently at the Paris AI summit and I’m so proud of our work. It wouldn’t be possible without the right kind of culture.

How the tactics Musk brought to Washington backfired at Twitter When Elon Musk bought Twitter in 2022, he laid off thousands of employees, stopped paying rent and auctioned off coffee makers and office chairs in hopes of a big turnaround.

I will go to a restaurant with my parents, my aunt and little Trixie of course

The failure of both religion and republicanism to avoid caring for others while providing only for themselves, by spewing division, while selling themselves as a good, says everything about both.
