Operation Epic Furry

Nah, what they lack in experience, they make up for with Epic Furry… or something.

OTOH, sending Melania “I dont care” to the UN seems outrageus yet somehow appropriate.

Thou Shalt Not Try to Start Armageddon Stop it.

“If you see or hear anyone saying that God supports Operation Epstein Fury so that Jesus can come back, you have God’s permission to absolutely lose your shit on them.”

I’ll let @ontopunk.bsky.social say more about Backloop itself, but running on substack has several limitations and isn’t fit for purpose (roughly speaking, building an expansive archive of material and conversations on collapse and regeneration).

Exit Interview One Year Since I Lost My NOAA Job

“But the quiet wisdom—why a buoy was placed in a particular channel, which coastal mayor to call before a storm makes landfall, how to interpret an anomaly because you saw its precursor 20 years ago—resides in people. When they leave en masse, the structure stands, but the inheritance falters.”

Wonderful - Thanks!!
@semble.so looks particularly intriguing for what @ontopunk.bsky.social and I are doing with Backloop.

Woke up to a dozen messages of friends in Beirut saying Israel bombed

No, I didn’t build this site, but props to those who did:

Bingo

And our combat troops are just “suckers and losers” according to the grifter in chief.

Precisely.

@mzjacobson.bsky.social instead of never-ending school funding issues, why not use all available rooftops, k-12 plus uni, to place solar panels?

Serious question: how would you design (or suggest design changes) for social media to work better?

That, and the way we have moved from conversations to solo performances. Like shock-jock radio and techBro podcasts, the emphasis shifts from communication to broadcast.

The largest grift on the planet. Of course this criminal regime wants to wield it for their personal enrichment.

This is when you are glad to realize that “the future is here - just unevenly distributed” @williamgibson.bsky.social

Never dabbled with the Xitter, but it does seem that the nuclear block option here on Bluski has created a sense of drive-by poasting.

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN ••• I hope you aren't drunk and took your staff's advice, Rashida and I don't know this man and feel confident he didn't care about us. Please restrain from drinking too much as you have been warned from your staff and stay off social media when you are drunk. I pray in his holy month you find peace and respect for your self, Rep. Nancy Mace @RepNancyMace • 6h My heart goes out to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib tonight. Sending them thoughts and prayers.

Make responding like this the new standard for opposition to conservatives please

Strike on Iranian primary school kills 148, authorities say Girls’ education facility hit as US and Israel launch joint military operation

The death toll rises and two realities collide: imagine headlines if 148 schoolgirls were massacred in New York, London or Paris. After this and Palestine, the asymmetry of grief in our so-called world order is brutal and impossible to unsee.

I prefer not!

Oh, *that* Barron. Sure, I can get behind that.

Oh, *that* Barron. Sure, I can get behind that.

Thoughtful piece that is sure to ruffle feathers but it is a necessary corrective to the guilt-by-association provocation that needs to be addressed.

Two dark haired and dark eyes Palestinian children, Omar and Rolan. Omar is on the left. He is the younger of the pair, at 2 years old. Rolan is his older sister and has an arm around him. She is wearing a purple sweatshirt. They deserve safety and food. Please help them.

People think life returned to normal after the ceasefire. It didn’t. We’re still in tents, cold and struggling to feed our children. I can’t afford Eid clothes for them or medicine for my husband. We are not # just a family trying to survive. Any help or share means everything🤍

Excellent post by @naomioreskes.bsky.social

Scientific research is a fundamental part of our intellectual commons. The defunding of science, and academia in general, is nothing less than an attempt to pillage and control that commons.
