In the 60's I watched the Civil Rights movement unfold. In the 70's, I watched the Women's Rights movement unfold. In between, the Vietnam War played out on the evening news.

As such, John Fogerty's Fortunate Son is my favorite anti-war protest song.💙

"No stupid rules of engagement" is how you shoot down three of your own F-15s in one day. Just a shocking display of martial ineptitude.

Hit me like a flower: the best Lou Reed albums I don’t need to say much about Lou Reed that I didn’t in 2013. You won’t find his outré experiments here; he wasn’t good at them. He wanted to be “normal.” This …

According to an investigation by a Swedish newspaper, Facebook keeps recordings of what some users of its "smart" glasses see, and those recordings are made available to human reviewers, who are seeing very private moments that users almost certainly don't think Facebook is recording and sharing.

A blunt reminder to document the truth while you can. Memories fade. Records don’t.

I knew Virginia Giuffre. I wish she was alive to see the ... We worked on her memoir and I know it was her pursuit of justice for all of Epstein’s victims that ultimately led to Andrew walking into that police station

"There is no question in my mind that Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest would not have occurred but for Virginia Giuffre’s tireless pursuit of justice."

Black-and-white portrait of Emily Carr, shown from the chest up, facing slightly to the left. She is wearing a dark hat with a textured band and a cape or coat fastened at the front with visible buttons. A high-collared garment is visible underneath. Her hair is tucked under the hat, and her face is softly lit against a plain studio background. The photograph shows scratches and wear consistent with an old print.

On this day in 1945, Emily Carr died.
One of Canada's greatest painters, recognition for her work came late in life but today she is celebrated as a national icon.

Yup. @mark-carney.bsky.social ought to have a chat with Spain on this one. You can support change in another country’s leadership without also supporting illegal international acts committed by a drug-addled pedophile.

Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Iran:

“Remember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.”

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

Because we put... incels in charge of the Pentagon???

People will conitnue to rape, murder and kidnap with greater frequency as long as we arrest the wrong people
