Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826) was an American statesman, philosopher, and Founding Father who authored the Declaration of Independence, served as the third U.S. president, advanced religious liberty, expanded the nation through the Louisiana Purchase, and shaped early American political ideals

George Jefferson, protagonist, minor antagonist, and anti-hero on The Jeffersons. George is played by Sherman Hemsley on the American television sitcoms All In The Family. Dear reader. Thank you for taking the time to check out this alt text! As you may or may not know, this is a ridiculous joke. I know full well who the person is in the photo, and that I've added the bio of a different person entirely. That's the joke. It's a gag about people having a similar name, which I can mix up in a comedic way. Also, I was dropped on the head as a baby. Several times.

part of the problem for schumer and other centrists is that they think ICE is awesome *on the merits.* Like, they aren't compromising on ICE funding; they actually love deportations, believe that lawlessness at the border or whatever nonsense is a real problem. 1

In this short essay, @lmsacasas.bsky.social provides a useful checklist for recognizing the Borg complex, and for deconstructing “manufactured inevitability.” A sort of guide for responding to the “banality of evil” as wonderfully captured by Arendt. open.substack.com/pub/theconvi...

a series of symptoms by which we might diagnose someone with a Borg complex:

Makes grandiose, but unsupported claims for technology
Uses the term Luddite a-historically and as a casual slur
Pays lip service to, but ultimately dismisses genuine concerns
Equates resistance or caution to reactionary nostalgia
Starkly and matter-of-factly frames the case for assimilation
Announces the bleak future for those who refuse to assimilate
Expresses contemptuous disregard for past cultural achievements
Refers to historical antecedents solely to dismiss present concerns

I can’t really take credit; I am very much influenced by feminist STS and the writings of Phil Agre. My book gets hailed as media studies, but i am very much influenced by sociolinguistics and information studies.

so much to be said about the language of implication and how a safe space is formed when an identity can be formed outside of white society. i think queer people can relate to this

Wild part about this is, even men have told these goofballs "if you make sure she knows she's safe, she will give you the world." They can't. They aren't safe themselves.

These are excuses—lazy and poor ones at that. If proper moderation was actually a priority BlueSky would treat it like one.
