Screenshot of text that reads, "The United States voted with Russia, North Korea, Iran and 14 other Moscow-friendly countries Monday against a resolution condemning Russian aggression in Ukraine and calling for the return of Ukrainian territory. The resolution passed overwhelmingly in the U.N. General Assembly."

This is how the Terran empire began in fact.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won a science-fair prize for research involving free radicals In 2007, she entered a project on Caenorhabditis elegan (C. elegan) lifespan extension to the ISEF, with her findings indicating that "antioxidants could potentially help prevent degenerative illnesse...

If anyone is wondering about @aoc.bsky.social’s science credentials, she has an asteroid named after her because she won a prize as a senior at one of the world's biggest science fairs. Her prizewinning research was done at Mount Sinai Hospital on longevity using C elegans worms as a model system.

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”?

But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"?

Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

BBC News report featuring a photo of Elon Musk in a dark suit and white shirt, sitting with his hands clasped, against a blurred background with logos. The headline reads: 'REPORT: Elon Musk is wasting everyone’s time and money, and serves no real purpose,' with the BBC News logo in the top right corner.

The BBC is quite correct.

Duh

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Trump’s biggest corruption yet Friends,

Connect all the dots during the first few weeks of Trump II and what do you see? An oligarchy unleashed and in the open. Their extraordinary wealth is buying the power to make them even wealthier. Some thoughts...

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

Amazing turnout for today's...

Activity continues in the Santorini-Amorgos area. Last 24h record on raspberry shake on Skopelos, about 340 km away.

A seismically active day in the Aegean recorded on my Raspberry shake on Skopelos island. Major swarm near Santorini (sample M 5 and M 4.9 attached) and an M 4.6 near Skyros.

Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde, wearing clergy attire with a red stole, speaks at a podium in the National Cathedral. An overlay text references gay, lesbian, and transgender children. The tweet comments express contrasting opinions on Christianity.

Jesus Christ would have nodded in agreement at her message.

Congratulations Jeff! Well deserved.

Meteorite strike caught on P.E.I. home security camera YouTube video by The Canadian Press

I am very very jealous that this family on Prince Edward Island (Canada) had a small meteor hit their sidewalk and managed to catch it on their door cam in what is likely the first audio and visual recording of a meteor strike!

What is Oligarchy? | Robert Reich YouTube video by Robert Reich

The biggest political divide in America isn't "left" versus "right."

It's the American people versus the oligarchy.

Congratulations Dimitry! Well deserved!

So true.

Why burden Bluesky with it? We can all use our willpower to do this.

President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100. He was a symbol of what is best about America: kindness, compassion, duty and service. He will be missed, most of all by those who long for a return of that kind of country, led by a man with such strength of character.

This is why I let Brad carry my phone most of the time.

The Biggest Economic Lies We’re Told | Robert Reich Just a thought: what if we stopped measuring the economy by the state of the stock market and started measuring it based on how many people are housed and cl...

Economic metrics like job growth, the stock market, and GDP don't give us the entire picture of how our economy is doing or who is actually doing well.

Want to measure economic success? Go to the kitchen tables of America.

In 1994, I took a lot of heat for this speech warning that the American middle class was in danger. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

Well would you look at that.
