I've spoken with some folks in my school district, but absolutely agree.
If you are in a corporation that follows Title IX at all, this is the moment to jump ship to BSKY.
The line has been drawn and if you feel comfortable denying services to marginalized folks, X is the place to be.
Doing the unthinkable: The deep cuts to the #CDC's workforce today are expected to decimate the Epidemic Intelligence Service, a program that has trained public health rapid responders for decades.
Envy of the world. Poof!

Deciding if Dems are just truly complicit in the current dismantling of US systems and norms or are afraid of the vacuum he'd produce is a fun game no one wants to play.
Really fascinating, thx
Imo, the "symbolic" aspect of every move since Jan 20 has been to showcase the failed nature of the US system in the face of Tech-oligarchy.
Idk if the US Worker will wake up in time to regain control of the vehicle before it's driven off a cliff though.
Temporary nature*
You can listen to T.S. Eliot's The Four Quartets at any time, and be reminded of both your own temporality and the temporary of all challenges or concerns.
While also being reminded of the infinite presence of a sustaining and present source of all Love.

Memento Mori
Lot of good work to do in the interim.
I have a lot of hope that in 2000 years someone will look at my google sheets and nod approvingly.
Imo there is absolutely a "unifying strategy" to every move so far.
Kill the US as a global leader, Kill NATO, and allow geopolitical competitors to grow by the diminishing of aspects of the US that served the people over profits.
It's accelerationism from wall to wall.
I keep coming back to the idea that Catholic contemplative faith in its relationship to non-dualism may be a way to navigate this moment for my Catholic family.
Thank you all, especially Jim and Kirsten for your work.

Lol is this the Shakespeare and The Things They Carried channel?
I'm teaching both Macbeth and TTTC right now.
It's lowkey a pretty wild literary space to be in right now
That's some real death cult energy, but instead of Nikes it's entire branches of the government they are wearing.
Honestly, it reads like the play is to actually lean into that narrative.
Like, how else do you parse this?

I don’t have a fancy lesson I delivered about the #SuperBowlHalftimeShow Before I showed it, I instructed my students to write down three words and document when they noticed them:
•imagery
•symbolism
•message
We watched once all the way through, then we broke down where my students noted. +
Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them — “they’re studying the spit of lizards?!” — remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

Zuck is out here Scroogemaxxing, is what I'm saying. In his Smeagol Era. Based and totem of the subconscious awareness of the common cost to man of systems built on blood and bone pilled.
You know, a billionaire.
A ponderous chain is actually so on the nose they can't escape it.
Imo, our oligarchs struggle visibly because they are experiencing what happens to a human when they no longer have human concerns, but their comfort is at the expense of other people entirely.
Some real One Ring energy out here.
A revelation that hit me during my conversation w/ @pernille.bsky.social is the tension & pressure of training American teachers to be superheroes needed to rescue kids from failing economic systems while ignoring those systemic failures. The demand to be superhuman is ultimately dehumanizing.
And none serve with him but constrainèd things
Whose hearts are absent too.
