Hello Bluesky. I'm a writer and strategist working in the HR tech space. I've had the unfortunate experience of burying two of our children, so I tend to write a bit about loss, grief, and trauma. I'll share some links below for anyone interested.
Wouldn't trust anyone who says "Actually it's ephebiphobia" to be in close proximity to my children.

IT'S '6-7', COOPER. A GENERATION ALPHA TREND. WHAT THEY CALL A 'MAY-MAY'. IT'S AN ORPHANED SIGNIFIER, NO SIGNS ATTACHED. ONE COULD CALL IT DADAIST, BUT SOMME SAY IT'S TOO STUPID TO BE DADA. IT'S ANTI-MEANING, ANTI-HUMOUR, BUT DAMN IF THOSE KIDS DON'T FIND IT A CRACK-UP.

I’d started to wonder whether the Epstein files were a bit of a macguffin, but no no they implicate the President of the United States in a pedophilia ring—and show the entire Republican Party as well as much of the federal government has been baldly covering it up. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Trump did the thing, everyone knows he did the thing, and he's got an entire political party and associated media apparatus trying to cover up his clear involvement in the thing. One of the sickest, most sordid chapters in an especially sick and sordid period of modern American history.

Remake CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG as a Bond movie. The original pretty much was one.
My only thoughts about this:

1. Haven't we all assumed each Bond is an entirely different person over the past 60 years? Has anyone really thought, "oh it's just this one guy?"

2. This is clearly the time to finally cast Idris and watch the internet explode in rage.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

This is the third such case I've read of ICE agents in Portland arresting guys with valid work visas and no criminal records, who then disappear into the detention system. I wrote about one last week. He appears to still be in Mississippi as of today reason.com/2025/10/30/a...
ICE agents detained the wrong people in Oregon, then stranded one in Mississippi

Feds also kept a gold chain one of the immigrants had received from his mother, as well as his cell phone.
