My first time growing stuff. So far most of the sprouts are the 2 types of lettuce.

gonna make a little thread of threads of my threads on understanding/surviving the current sociopolitical moment so that people can just 📌 one thing if they want a place to reread all of these

How democracies prevail: democratic resilience as a two-stage process This article introduces a novel conceptualization of democratic resilience - a two-stage process where democracies avoid democratic declines altogether or avert democratic breakdown given that such au...

All right babes I have 20 minutes so let's do some "I help you read the research on how to keep a democracy."

First of all: let's talk about factors positively and negatively associated with democratic resilience.

we're pulling from this free full-text paper: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Is this where (F)elon will be relocating the US treasury $$$?

So people are saying impeach Trump? As if Republicans would do that? Like we wouldn't then have Vance if they did? Who would also implement project 2025? It'll take something bigger than impeachment. Bigger than just voting in two years too, most likely.

Got it. Thanks for the correction.

Unfortunately an accurate depiction of too much of humanity, and even more so the #magacult

This is a bluesky experiment. I just want to see something. Hit like and/or say hi if you identify as #lgtbqia and/or like #pineappleonpizza and/or like #dnd or other #roleplayinggames and let people figure out which...if you want lol

As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

Realized something... I pretty much started the day with my kid 🤢🤮 vomiting. Seems fitting for today.

(He's fine now🤷. There's an occasional acid reflux problem.)

Today is a significant day, the start of four years of resistance. Our daily mission from this point forward will be the unwavering support of the people, exposing any attempt to undermine democracy.

Hell has frozen over (again). I don't live there but it's close enough to visit. #whenhellfreezesover #michigan

This is the GOP’s long con on full display.

Just a reminder, Trump isn't President yet and Biden said he wouldn't enforce the Tiktok ban. That's why they were able to bring it back....before Trump takes office. Tiktok coming back on the 19th, has nothing to do with Trump, who takes office on the 20th. #staymadbooboo

Why? So he could be seen as a hero in “saving” it.

Whelp! Congratulations to the Democratic Party for giving Trump a layup slam dunk the DAY BEFORE his inauguration, you toothless, shit suckers.

#tiktok make up your mind😫
