I hear you. I'm currently trying to decide if I can justify booking an airport hotel for a few hours only and I think I still prefer to be at the airport.

💥🇭🇺🗳️ BREAKING: Péter Magyar says Viktor Orbán called to concede and congratulate him.
Magyar will be Hungary’s next prime minister and, as it stands, is set to secure a 2/3 supermajority – enough to fully dismantle Orbán’s system.
A 16-year chapter is over.
What really bugs me is that there's a big chunk of the left that seems completely unaware that there is a whole lefty tradition with roots in various organized religions. Catholic Workers, Jewish Voice for Peace, Black church leaders, Engaged Buddhism, and more.
My one-hour special “Rick Steves Iran: Yesterday and Today,” which helps humanize 90 million Iranian people, is streaming free and ad-free at www.ricksteves.com/watch-iran.
'What emerges may look like evidence, but it primarily measures uptake. It does not measure the need or fit of the tool. And it tells us very little about whether the tool should exist in classrooms at scale.'
Will sound familiar to academics grappling with HE EdTech adoption.
Leaked calls confirm that Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó is being run as a Russian intelligence asset in the halls of the European Union and NATO at the highest levels. Incredibly damning transcripts. Another EU foreign minister has likened Szijjártó to Kim Philby.
So very sorry, Sarah. Please take the time you need to grieve 💜
No Kings is international!
Hope to see U.S. citizens and allies abroad out protesting!
Remarkable story from Denmark's nat'l broadcaster. "When Danish soldiers were flown to Greenland in January...they brought explosives so they could destroy, among other things, the runways in Nuuk & Kangerlussuaq [to] prevent US mil aircraft from landing" www.dr.dk/nyheder/indl...
Sánchez ha recuperado el “no a la guerra” que movilizó a la izquierda española en 2003 y fue el preludio de una pérdida del poder por parte del PP en 2004 tras los atentados del 11-M. “El mundo ya ha estado aquí antes"
Asking for a frustrated friend: if @verizonofficial.bsky.social locked the app because of "suspicious" activity but the roaming hotline refers to the app to solve issues, what is the person to do? I'm so glad I have the purple 🟣 carrier 😁
Thanks for saving the old one!
Yes, thank you. And I'd add that the faculty who know most about education are teaching faculty. Either in mostly teaching institutions or whose main responsibility is to teach.
This is the kind of thing white supremacists have been doing to Emmett Till’s memorial for decades.
It’s wild to see them do this to a white woman who the entire world saw extrajudicially murdered.
Thank you for the timely reminder 😁
In the last days of humanity, humans cultivated a growing disdain for their own soul. Many didn't even believe in the sanctuary of the creative process anymore, they wanted to eliminate it and usher in automation to do the work. But it didn't go the way humans wanted or expected; creativity meant experiencing, processing, understanding human joy and pain. For a robot to create a human, humanity had to ensure that a piece of themselves could live in us.
That is so lovely and prescient and true, @nnedi.bsky.social Loved The Death of the Author 🙏❤️📚
That was hard to read but necessary. Thank you for sharing it!
Such a well written piece. Remaining empathetic and creative is more important than ever.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
Two protestors marching down a Minneapolis street carry a white sheet upon which is written WE BEAR WITNESS. Next to them, another protestor carries a homemade sign in the shape of a shield bearing the legend DEFEND LOVE.
Every "low and despised" person rejected by the elites has that of God in them. Every outcast has a home in the blessed community.
And when they come together in love and solidarity, it can be, as George Fox urged us to be, "a terror to all the adversaries of God."

DreamHaven Books owner Greg Ketter emerging from a cloud of tear gas that ICE agents fired into the streets of Minneapolis.
Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com
As always, superb analysis by @sarahkendzior.bsky.social My fav quote: "As for restoring integrity, the only way to do it is to live your values and model that for others. Integrity is the one thing that once you lose, you can’t get back. Integrity is a form of power that no oppressor can touch."
As clergy pray, arrests begin
Have a larger story on this coming, but I’ve been embedded with this group, and this story from yesterday is part of what they’ve been doing in the city: religionnews.com/2026/01/22/h...
Yup.
