Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.

I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Turns out the problem is affecting their other datacenters too. So I’m basically out until they fix. Hopefully it’ll resolve quickly.

"Understanding" is a pretty beautiful compound word...in this case "under" has a somewhat archaic meaning of "among" (also still present in "under these circumstances.")

So understanding is "Standing among" as-in a mind that figuratively shares space with the concepts in question.

Depends on the ad tech & block method whether it actually registered as a view, but the more prevalent ad blocking is the less advertisers are willing to pay.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

Well, they’ve been trying to claw it back for years and they finally got their wish: a dumber, less informed population. I fucking hate this timeline y’all.

We all have a role to play to defend trans youth.

No matter what, we can use our platforms to fight for marginalized communities.

If there was one single feature that continually keeps BSK fresh it’s the β€œstarter pack” feature. Whenever I feel like my feed might be getting stale or too much of a bubble I go find another interesting starter pack and *boom* more perspectives.

The weirdest right wing argument right now is β€œObama deported more people!” So you’re a fan of Obama now? You admit his immigration policies worked without relentless cruelty? Ok
