Welcome back - so pleased to see you in this timeline again. You yourself have warned us to prepare for the disappearance of references, history, important voices, even music. The outcry from your readers shows that many of us will work hard to follow you wherever you go!

If Sarah Kendzior is indeed blocked on @bsky.app, this is a completely unjustified and highly questionable move. Sarah Kendzior is among the best voices of knowledge-based critical journalism in the US. See to it that this is corrected immediately and with an apology, @pfrazee.com!

I just called @gallego.senate.gov and @captmarkkelly.bsky.social - very worried about them.

You don’t need to change anything - as a fan of all runners, from our neighborhood Girls on the Run to our Flagstaff elite pros and Olympians, I am very appreciative of you and @fastwomen.bsky.social

Generative AI being 'wrong' in the information it produces, and being unethical in how it steals human labor are both overlapping issues and it's important to show a bit of damn solidarity even if you're not a scientist, or information worker, or a writer, or an artist, or a photographer

You are so right! My first spouse was a journalist (newspaper reporter, editor) - We had front-row seats to the destruction of local and metropolitan newspapers - first by corporate consolidation, then by private equity and, at same time, destruction of many of the revenue sources by technology.
