@bestese34.bsky.social I don't do not-twitter, so can't support you there, but want you to know millions of us support you and are appalled at ABC bowing to the dictator.

Comment of the day: I liked Elon Musk better when I thought he was a fragrance a fragrance.

Gotta assume his wife is fine with that. Can't imagine any self-respecting woman wanting an idiot like that discharging any material anywhere near them.

Mississippi politician files ‘Contraception Begins at Erection Act’ "People can get up in arms and call it absurd but I can’t say that bothers me.”

Ope! The bill would make it “unlawful for a person to discharge genetic material without the intent to fertilize an embryo.” www.wlbt.com/2025/01/22/m...

Pretty clear where this is going ….

Random Natural Process Painting Detail
#art #abstract #abstractart #Nature #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalFieldPainting

This painting was made using a technique whereby pigment grains are deposited on a smooth surface of gesso - in the same way that rivers deposit silt and sediments in river deltas and alluvial fans - in nature. The result is imagery that resembles islands, forests, lakes, and other geological features usually seen in satellite images. In this particular piece, 2 figures can be seen embracing within what looks like a large egg, containing both of them. Metallic paints in gold, aqua, purple, and blue are laid down in layers, and interact in interesting and unexpected ways. Thank you for visiting the places I make, where all are welcome!

Let me get this straight? Trump dithers on about the situation in Syria and his concern is what's best for Russia?

If you vote for a convicted felon so he could shut down his own criminal investigations then your opinion on Biden pardoning his son is useless.

South Koreans demand that their leader who tried to stage a coup resign immediately while in America we re-elected the coup plotter as president.

Embarrassing.

'Viruses Are Our Friend'— 10 Off the Wall Video Clips from RFK Jr. Resurface on Bluesky Past comments include denying AIDS and calling vaccinated children "damaged"

A frustrating thing for me right now is the media narrative that RFK Jr is just an “anti-vaxxer” when he has said so many crazy things about other stuff over the years. We compiled 10 nutty clips on various topics, which still barely scratches the surface. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

This was the primary driver for me leaving twitter.

I watched this eat away at the views of people who I have known for a long time, and felt the heat of that weird radiation aimed at me and one day some months ago just never went back.

It’s done some strange things to…

I think we all underestimate the effect mere exposure to information has on us, and it’s part of why I reject the idea that “echo chambers are bad” as a sort of meta-propaganda.

Quite the contrary: if information changes us, then careful tending of our info-environment is an imperative.
