DPRK and others cannot miss the lesson of what happened when Ukraine abandoned nuclear capabilities in return for security guarantees. they were screwed.

letting Russian aggression succeed in Ukraine will result in much wider and longer-term negative effects upon the stability & safety of our world.

Someone proposed that LEGO make a set for the Stonewall National Monument in New York. It seems really well-designed to me, and LEGO's policy is that if a proposal gets over 10,000 votes, they'll actually consider it and respond. It's sitting around 9,500 votes right now. You can vote for it at the link below.

The Orange Child may appoint people who he thinks "look the part" to positions with nice titles, but he expects them to exercise no actual policy-level decision-making power. the position of "Secretary of State" is meaningless to someone who thinks they are the King.

People ask: "Why the preoccupation with #Bluesky? Lots of good folks are going there and love it."

@Daojoan does a great job of providing the long answer in this brilliant piece: https://www.joanwestenberg.com/big-tech-wants-you-trapped-the-open-web-sets-you-free-2/

But the short answer is that, by funneling users onto another unsafe centralized corporate platform, #Bluesky inhibits the construction of truly defensible public social media.

So now, when something happens over on Bluesky, the Fedi will not be ready to absorb a rapid mass migration.

The United States is a rogue state that’s now launched an imperialist trade war against Canada and Mexico.

It’s time for countries, especially its former allies, to form an alliance to make the US feel the consequences of its actions and to break their dependence on US tech once and for all.

🇺🇸 USA: Parents are holding ‘measles parties’ in the U.S., alarming health experts.

"As measles cases continue to rise in Texas where a child recently died, health officials are warning against so-called “measles parties,” calling the practice “foolishness” and dangerous."

"Measles is one of the most contagious viruses in the world, spreading through the air when an infected person breathes, coughs or sneezes."

There needs to be MANY fronts in this moment. This could be one.

Start small. If not welcome in red districts, do so in adjacent ones and invite all comers. Build to larger town halls and rallies. The orange turd pays attention to rallies. Even the sellouts in the media do. #politics
