Let's make this a hot list🔥

Products from RED states, with BLUE state alternatives!
You may disagree with some states.
It's a guide, please be thoughtful.
I'll continue to update the list, with comments left in the pinned post 💙
Trump II has begun. Many people are asking: “What can I do now?”
Here are 10 recommendations. Please let me know your thoughts, and if you have anything else you'd like to add to the list.
Trump is sworn in without placing his hand on the Bible, because he has no intention of upholding his oath of office.
America’s allies should be deeply concerned about Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing. America’s enemies, meanwhile, are almost certainly laughing in amazement at their unexpected good fortune.

Apropos, the best election postmortem I’ve read dropped today. It’s also more than a postmortem; it’s a deeper long-term analysis, and quite compelling.
The article is by @eladn.bsky.social and well worth the long read.

The rule of law depends on our constant vigilance.
If you want to understand the rise of RFK and other crackpot anti-science types in the 21st century, you have to understand the fusion between conspiracy theorists and New Age flummery, as I wrote in the new edition of The Death of Expertise:
News has just broke that Trump plans to eject trans people from the military within days of inauguration.
Trans servicemembers who have served 19 years will lose their pensions and healthcare.
This is obscene. They served our country, and will be kicked to the side like trash.
I really encourage everyone to listen to @onthemedia.bsky.social. Now more than ever understanding how information flows and who controls it and profits off it is a necessity to—I am not exaggerating—human survival. And it is not dreary.
