This is what unites the oligarchs and the tech bros. Nothing less than massive collective action will mitigate--not solve-- this, and we see that those in power are not addressing it
Ignoring the science on human induced climate change is going to kill us all. We are close to a 'step function' in global warming due to the thawing of the permafrost. The global permafrost carbon holds twice the amount of carbon currently in Earth’s atmosphere.

Every single Democrat law maker, every allied celebrity, every single decent normal voter, should record a video where they repeat, word for word, what the 6 Dem veterans recorded, about following only legal military orders. Dare them. Dare them to charge EVERYONE.

I'm a pass on card catalogues, but I am all-in on making sure our physical collections not only remain strong, but are designed to encourage browsing.

Despite what consultant-class trends in academic libraries will tell you, our patrons actually do want stacks in the library. We should listen.
The one thing I really miss about the 'older world' is browsing library stacks, and card catalogues. However much I appreciate databases and retrieving what I want in moments, the serendipity of 'the book next to the one I wanted' and 'the article in the same issue' cannot be replicated. #Libraries

Bear in mind, Boasberg is huge MAGA target over his MAGA DOJ contempt investigation. They will stop at nothing to stop his hearing.

This grubby self-dealing feeds the frenzy by making the judge’s perfectly legal conduct illegal after the fact.

Pete Buttigieg would be a good DNC spokesperson.

He would do a GREAT job of going around the country, being on TV all the time, and putting out Dem messaging on EVERY issue.

He would be an excellent counter-Leavitt. And we NEED one. He should be holding regular press conferences and putting

Release this phone call transcript
Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth just launched a sham investigation into me for my support for Ukraine, all because I demanded Trump’s call transcripts with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman be released.

and who can tell us what is happening in the Library of Congress?
Coming up on 250 years of the same vision and thinking is America. There is nothing diverse about America except the physical appearance of the American population. It’s like having to listen to the same song for 250 years. Privilege makes many noise (song) blind in this scenario.
