I’m just doing my #ConfictOfInterest training as a commissioner for Brookline Commission of the Arts & OMG 5 minutes in and I’m already appalled by how blatantly so many of our politicians are flouting them. I mean I knew it but this is really bringing it home to me

Last night I had the great pleasure of hearing my friend @kawulf.bsky.social talk about her book Lineage at the RI Historical Society - such a treat 🥰

Great turnout & inspiring speeches at #NoKings in Providence today - combined with Women’s Week/Dyke March. A good reminder of all that’s best about this country. I especially loved the lobstahs 🥰💪🦞

Is it just me or does anyone else find it deeply disturbing that the locals near where Vance & co are staying are not only being asked who’s living in their homes but also about their social media!!?? (I’m surprised this isn’t in the headlines TBH)

Today would have been my lovely mum’s 94th birthday - and it’s also the exact halfway point of the year, a fact she was inordinately proud of 😂🥰

In the absence of the leadership we need from most of our politicians (arguably all Republicans) “This is the time Americans have to speak up and let their voices be heard” says @hcrichardson.bsky.social

So much to love about the @easeeditors.bsky.social conference this week but one of the best things was finally meetings @irfanullah.bsky.social in real life 😊
(this pic was taken in the magnificent #Oslo city hall where the EASE attendees were hosted by the mayor!)

Turns out that quality time with my lovely daughter and some walks in the beautiful Uppsala forests were just what I needed this weekend

Haha - since I’m a registered democrat I think their mailing list needs a bit of work! I just wish they were right that making DC a state was genuinely close to happening…

So it looks like Meta has essentially stolen 58 of my late dad's works from LibGen to train its LLM. I guess the glass half full take on that is at least it will include some high-quality content 😜 😬😡

Is this (from @theguardian.com) really true?? If so #MindBlown 🤯🤯🤯

Putting my #TheIdesOfTrump postcards in the mail now. Addressing them all to President (for now) Trump was very cathartic!

Seems like a reasonable response to her request…

@standupforscience.bsky.social #Boston advice/inspiration from speakers
- If you live/vote in LA KY or ID call your senators, they chair the key science committees
- Don’t tune out don’t stay silent keep fighting
- Our insts are running scared it’s up to us to stand up for science
