I'm curating my Bluesky account rigorously.
I'm done with blanket outrage & negativity.
We should all want solutions & the sharing of important info so we can take meaningful action.

I'm against school vouchers and I don't support for-profit charter schools.

I’ve been working against school vouchers for a decade. I’ve also been watching what has happened in other states.
Missouri is following the Arizona voucher plan.
Arizona blew a $1 billion hole in their state budget last year because tax money was diverted to private religious schools.

Hey everyone, online ratings (Goodreads and retail sites) are helpful, so if you read it and feel inclined, I'd appreciate it.
If you download it from one of the online bookstores, I think you can leave a rating there.
Thanks!!

It’s finished.
It’s also not finished because, in the words of Paul Valéry, a piece of writing is never finished. Ultimately it is abandoned. That’s because writing is thinking, and we’re never finished with that.
Anyway, I figured out what to do with that long blog post . . .

A lot of the people lamenting Marjorie Taylor Greene’s departure from Congress—and celebrating her as some kind of principled maverick—are going to end up eating their words when she reemerges in 2028 to help lead a pro-groper, pro-Fuentes “America First” faction of the GOP.

Allllrighty so the Coast Guard swastika situation. Buckle up for a thread.
Yesterday it broke in the news that a USCG policy was being updated and that swastikas and nooses were no longer classified as hate symbols.

🤬🤬 No one should face this kind of censorship.
This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.
