I've created a list for Bluesky users who were part of philosophy Twitter back in the day. Help me populate it! Also happy to add people who wish they had been part of the old community. I've added a few names already. (Ask if you'd like to be removed.) bsky.app/profile/did:...
Pittsburgh's City Council voted unanimously this week to formally codify its refusal to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. This is bigger than a symbolic gesture, here's what it actually does and why it matters. 🧵

Hey, y'all! This is my photo, so let me provide context to this awesome piece: it's a reprinting of the Oberlin letter in a mag called The Luddite Dispatch, a publication of The Luddite Club in Brooklyn. www.theludditeclub.org
“Imagine a humanoid educator named ‘Plato.’ Access to classical studies—literature, science, art, philosophy, mathematics, and history—in your home. Plato will provide a personalized experience, adaptive to the needs of each student. Plato is always patient and always available.”
