I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

Having an IR blaster on a smart phone is a lot more useful and fun than I thought it would be. The solid IR software OnePlus provides for this phone (12R) helps.

I used to work for TYT, taking a huge pay cut to work for them.

I am mourning the loss of TYT as a consistent beacon of progressive values and deep humanity.

That consistency is gone. Marginalized folks can no longer rely on TYT.

I hope Cenk and Anna find their way back.

I fear they won't.

Twitter is never going to be "that place" again. bsky feels good, but you know what's an even better place for your content? Your own website.

This post by @stormgrass.com explains nicely why:
