It’s not just a building. Ask who’s funding this and why and what’s underneath this building. (all that stuff you’ve mentioned is INSANELY worrying and important.)

It’s also really great because they have the most amazing technology anyone could ever ask for in the holodeck, they use it, but then they’ll also show up for their robot’s cat poetry night because they realize it’s important to be present with those you love and that technology isn’t a substitute

US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.

Block on sight.

Protect your digital space.

Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.

Gov Janet Mills will be 80 yo in 2027.
She is a great governor.
I would like to see her become a mentor, not a senator.

Graham Platner, who she is challenging, is 41 yo.
We need someone with energy and vitality.
Someone who will survive for 6 years.

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.
