As long as Spotify is taking money from ICE, they don’t need or deserve free advertising for Spotify Wrapped.
Stop using Spotify until the ICE recruitment ads stop (and be on the lookout for Fascism Wrapped in Los Angeles, Austin, and NYC): indivisible.org/cancel-spotify?source=bluesky

So there is already an ai-generated whitewashing campaign to bury the name of the Muslim man, Ahmed al Ahmed, who disarmed one of the Bondi Beach shooters, and replace his identity with a white guy name and that’s why even a thimble of our potable water powering this tech is too fucking much.

Flipping through what I have and saw Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip sitting there. Popped on that first episode and despite my having watched it three previous times, it still hits every single moment with me.
I love this show.

The word “hero” gets thrown around too often, but Ahmed Al Ahmed truly fits the description.
A good guy *without* a gun who put his life on the line preventing further harm and tragedy.
May he recover quickly from his wounds and be treated with the respect he deserves.
My heart is with 🇦🇺.

A heroic moment in this anti-semitic tragedy.
The hero here is a 43 yo Lebanese immigrant and fruit stand owner named
Ahmed Al Ahmed who was shot twice in the arm (apparently bt the other gunman) after wrestling the gun away.
He will be fine according to a relative.

I was today years old when I found out Jeff Buckley’s mother is 1st-gen Panamanian.
I somehow knew he was an hermano from another madre.

Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.
This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.
The vote failed big, 19/31.
The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!
