Fude (bent tip) nib fountain pens are so versatile, but as a left-handed gal they seem to be a huge nightmare for smudging!
#fountainpen folks, are there good options for #lefties in terms of ink or pen?
Usually I use felt tip fineliners for writing, which dry quickly and are often very consistent.

Imagine doing a PhD in electricity, just so you knew how to blow up nuclear power plants and heavy water-producing facilities.

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.

Maybe other countries should sanction US officials for what they’re unleashing on their own streets.

this is a great point & helps expose a key limitation in the way people tend to think abt "taking action": the truth is that activities have far-reaching, ultimately unknowable future effects, + even things that seem & feel like failure in the present can set conditions for future transformations:
We tend to think of things happening in the present as the endpoint of stuff that's been percolating for decades, but it's also the beginning of new things: These are formative events that nobody living through them will forget, and we have no idea what seeds are being sown for the future.
I keep thinking about how Frances Perkins, maybe the most transformational cabinet secretary in modern history, witnessed the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire in her youth, and the things the people on the ground in Minneapolis may live to do.

ICE is holding Native Americans hostage as a bargaining chip to raid reservations, saying they won't release them until the tribes give up sovereignty.

isn’t this the woman that ICE violently snatched from her car the other day when she was trying to get to a doctor appt in minneapolis?
This isn't satire. This is a real headline published in the UK.

And as much as the losers on this website accuse me of dooming, I don’t think the fascist have anywhere close to the power for an organized suppression by intimidation and violence! The greater threat is being negotiated into an illegitimate power sharing agreement with them by our own opposition!

I think the concept of a general strikes is massively misunderstood in the public consciousness but, looking at Minneapolis, you see students walking out of classes, parents, “new” white collar professionals, and pensioners forming neighborhood watches, and you have service workers street fighting.

ended up in a similar discussion with a phd from my former dept this week - 'why not use chatgpt for this?' oh, come up with a crap solution which you can now try to check? so we can all stop doing anything rewarding which we've developed the skills to do and just wipe the arse of a shit machine...

Elon Musk's DOGE was not a failure - for the people behind Elon. Sure, it cut no costs and ruined Elon's reputation, but it exfiltrated data from every federal agency and delivered it to Peter Thiel's Palantir, which then created the app ICE agents are using to target immigrant neighborhoods. 1/
“It’s basically a map of the United States. It’s kind of like Google Maps.” This is how an ICE agent described the app Palantir worked on for finding neighborhoods to raid.

I've seen the interface, it does look exactly like that www.404media.co/elite-the-pa...

A very simple thing is if your signal has your name change your name to something generic.
I need people who don’t live in the Twin Cities to stop telling people not to join massive Signal groups right now. People are doing it. They’re going to keep doing it. Give them good advice about it.

The actually practical advice is don’t say anything to 1000 strangers you wouldn’t say in public

Also, the last thing Renee Good said to the ICE agent who murdered her seconds later was "I'm not even mad, dude."

They. Will. Kill. You. Even. If. You're. Nice.
Everyone arguing for the "please stop yelling at ICE and show them how peaceful we can be" approach is misguided and it's eventually going to get a lot more people killed than aggressive protest
