Looking for an article, a critique of the racism of the Trump administration, written by a black male journalist that was well shared and commented on here. His comment about how virtuousness and moral thinking are scoffed at in this era stuck with me. Does this ring a bell for anyone?

Hundreds of workers making EV delivery vans were recently laid off by GM — and they’re threatening to take over the plant.

Huge solidarity to the workers of @unifor.org Local 88. If they come for your machines, do as they say in Argentina:

Occupy. Resist. Produce.

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

I don't think people realize how much a trillion dollars is.

Let's say you get paid a million dollars per day. That's a lot, right?

If you spend none of it and pay no taxes, you'll have a trillion dollars in approximately two thousand seven hundred (2700) YEARS.

No one should have that much.

Neurobiology echoing @prisonculture.bsky.social’s wise words: “Hope is a discipline.”
“Why are traumatized people so MISERABLE?”

“Too much disappointment teaches the system that ‘wanting leads to pain,’ and so it stops responding to potential rewards. … Biologically, it’s an adaptive silencing of the very circuits that make us feel alive.” www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/an-i...
How Chronic Disappointment Rewires the Brain
Chronic disappointment can train the brain to expect pain instead of reward. Restoring hope means reawakening dopamine through small actions, enriched environments, and new desire.

I’ve started watching the film “I’m Still Here” and its depiction of the Brazilian military dictatorship shows how much bleaker it might still get. We can’t wait another 16 months.

He’s grieving she never got to see the big changes to the political, economic and legal systems that destroy nature and must be reformed.
