Here's a fun idea:

Host a Support & Sign-Making party a few days before No Kings on 10/18. Invite concerned folks to eat, drink, be merry, & come up with clever slogans.

Make t-shirts, buttons, & posters, with prizes for the best ones!

Funny thing is such a blanket filter seems like a bad AI move. But it's like so many of our other deeply human shortcuts, reducing everything to us vs. them

“To see so many people who frankly give a shit about their country, it really warms my heart. I’m trying really hard not to cry.”

“Why this fight is so important is because there’s only one thing left for them to take, and that is our power.” - Texas House Democratic leader Gene Wu

Love reading Jen Shahade's "AI plays chess" posts for extrapolating patterns of AI confabulation.

Also, em dashes could mean written by AI — or written by AM. (And haha @jenshahade.bsky.social for bringing it back around in footnote 2)

Fighting authoritarianism requires defending institutions under attack. Small actions, big solidarity. Send your letters and $1 for Harvard to President Alan M. Garber, Office of the President, Harvard University, Massachusetts Hall, Cambridge, MA 02138 #StayStrongHarvard

When researchers are under government control, we all lose. So I just sent Harvard a letter and $1 to let them know regular folks have their back. Let's get 100 people to do the same! Who's in? (Template in thread.)

A Plea From a Member of the ‘51st State’ ‘Canadians are not upset because it’s an ‘us-versus-them’ thing. It’s more like if your brother turned on you: We were there in battle together. Before there’s anger, you’re kind of sad about it. Did you forget about what we’ve done to support you?’
