I hear from informed sources that these #NoKings rallies are more than twice as big as last time, making them easily the largest protests in US history. Thanks to everyone and especially organizers.

This thing against Leticia James is such nonsense. Lots of people use their vacation homes for Airbnb when they’re not there. Ludicrous

Yeah, I thought that was very interesting. They've been working on meds to remove amyloid, which seem to be ineffectual.

I saw the movie #Fairyland yesterday. It was painful, remembering all the deaths. I was a member of Morningside Friends Meeting then. I just wanted to memorize the names of the people we lost. I don’t want them to be forgotten.

@nycountylawyers.bsky.social is it possible to sue over Trump posting pictures of himself in public buildings? He is misusing public resources for personal and political promotion.

Anne Barschall @barschall.bsky.social · 23d

It seems to me that this is a misuse of government resources?

Anne Barschall @barschall.bsky.social · 23d

The rejection by ex-USA health departments of the Tylenol nonsense clearly shows that, contrary to what Trump has said, he is not increasing our influence or prestige.

Anne Barschall @barschall.bsky.social · 23d

Yeah, I know they’re two white men, but I’m leaning towards a Newsom/Buttigieg ticket for our next election, if there is an election.

In fact, most of the people killed in this conflict are Christians and animists. The perpetrators are mostly Muslim. Why are you highlighting this particular incident? Distorted.

It was already raised -- which is very discriminatory against black people who have lower life expectancy than white people.

@peoplefor.bsky.social can you sue over Trump putting pictures of himself on government buildings? It seems like corruption. It seems like misuse of government resources for personal and political promotion.
