People who are AI fanboys (I use the term advisedly, because it's definitely a gendered phenomenon) don't seem to realize that they're signaling to the world that they a) don't trust their own analytical skills, b) prefer hallucinated fantasies to the truth.

Excellent thought and brilliantly articulated. Thanks

On the floor of Congress and on every major TV news program DAILY.

A blue Barn Swallow arrives to bring food to its four youngsters that are sitting on a cattail.

It worked! A parent arrived with dinner shortly after the first photo was taken. #BirdOfTheDay #ShoutItOut

Four young Barn Swallows sitting on a cattail. Their beaks are wide open.

I'm told today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #ShoutItOut so felt like a good time share this one. #birds

Thank God for Bluesky Yes, it's eager. Yes, it's censorious. But it has the very considerable advantage of not being fascist.

I enjoy almost anything Carl Sagan said.

If Brexit had never happened…

…we’d be much wealthier, with more investment in public services, better trade - and with our parliament & govt having spent the last decade doing far more productive things.

We need a free press It’s vital for democracy that we receive verifiable information that is not manipulated or controlled

“Just three companies, News Corp (Murdoch family), Daily Mail & General Trust (DMGT, Viscount Rothermere) and Reach plc, control over 80% of daily newspaper circulation…

The hyper-rich continue to invest huge sums in acquiring control of media”

We need a free press - ie free from the billionaires.

Thread for those new to BlueSky. First of all, welcome. It feels like a safer space, doesn’t it? But also perhaps a bit disorienting initially? Here’s some tips for getting your bearings.

In ‘Feeds’ there is an option to follow just ‘Mentions’
Head to Feeds and search for Mentions.

@trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social My #Fediverse feed is quite diverse; good to encourage bridging in both directions so that all of us can reach more readers. Worth highlighting #bridgy to your network on #Bluesky?
