🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

This is a venn diagram showing how 69 Trump actions map onto domains covering: undermining democratic institutions; suppressing dissent and media; dismantling social protections; attacking science and education; destabilising the global order. A table version is available here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LZN7QnbSyFfUZJG8Sn1MWpK0VnfBtb0OSyZ1jxP3xBk/edit?usp=sharing

Millions of Americans are now facing the kind of choice we've long taught about in ethics classrooms using Nazi Germany examples -- will "I was just following orders" work, in retrospect?

Thank you so much to Trooper Pet Mobile Veterinary Nursing and everyone who purchased pet stockings from them this year! They raised an unbelievable $2200 in support of Glowing Hearts Charity! We are so appreciative of everyone who participated in this campaign! #supportlocal #giveback

I've been tracking/laughing at gov attempts to define "sex" & "gender" for ~10 years. For those wondering, yesterday's EO "DEFENDING WOMEN" reads like a Netflix comedy special (for those inclined to laugh at the absurd). A 🧵

Now, let me tell you all what I REALLY think!

The beginning of a letter addressed to me (Michael Baumtrog) from the Vice-Provost Faculty Affairs at Toronto Metropolitan University, which reads "Dear Dr. Baumtrog, I have had the opportunity to review your tenure dossier and am pleased to inform you that I am approving your transfer to the tenured faculty, effective January 10, 2025."

Sharing here a long thread I just shared on Threads about Zuckerberg. Yes, I encouraged folks to come to Bluesky. Anyway, pull up a chair.

I'll add to this the other part of this NGC-1380 JWST observation, which shows the outskirts with *a lot* of stars (the right side) and incredible far away galaxies! 🔭 This was not the aim of this observation, but the deep-field vision it created is so amazing!

On the right side of the image, numerous stars appearing like dots everywhere can be seen: this is the outskirts of the NGC-1380 galaxy. On the left side, and everywhere else in fact, a lot of background and far away galaxies can be seen in blue and red colors.

Public transit should indeed be free. I can't picture a scenario where I would want fewer people taking public transit and taking some other mode of transportation. It's like complaining about too many people using the public library. Some services are just all around great.

I swear I don't get any kick backs for reposting this but the underlying issue is the media has a bias against protest especially liberal protest. It's called the protest paradigm and its been documented for more than 40 years at this point. Link in next skeet.

An apt meme making rounds

A meme with three images from film Titanic of the dancing scene where Jack & Rose are spinning around laughing. First panel Kate Winslet's character says "WE SHOULD WRITE SOMETHING TOGETHER". Second panel Leonardo diCaprio's character laughs saying "I DON'T HAVE ANY TIME". Kate's character replies in third panel laughing hysterically "I DON'T HAVE ANY TIME EITHER".

Aurora OVERHEAD and to the SOUTH in Northern Ireland tonight, with bright, vivid colours, the strong stuff lasting for over an hour.... unreal 🤯🤯 I took so many photos that I haven't had time to make a selection yet, so here are some semi-random ones (in reverse chronological order) 🔭🧪

Night photo of the aurora borealis (northern lights). A purple patch (somehwta curtain-shaped) is visible around the middle, with green curtains below. In the foreground some clouds are visible as darker shadows, in the bottom right is a bright light of the Moon, and at the bottom, in darkness (but punctuated by some lights) is the nearby rural landscape

Night photo of the aurora borealis (northern lights). A purple patch of light is visible in top left, with the rest of the view filled by red and green interchanging curtains and streamers. At the bottom are black silhouettes of large trees
