@qasimrashid.com has some words about the Sheeran/Macklemore blowup. Among them, "To choose silence is to choose the oppressor." Read the whole thing here: www.qasimrashid.com/p/ed-sheeran...

I get emails from orgs all the time asking me to contact decision makers for one reason or another. Now, apparently, if you don't know for certain who sent you a request, you had better check the final product to be sure that it wasn't altered to say exactly the opposite of what you wanted.

We've all had days when a LOT of little annoyances = one miserable day. Similarly, we read daily major stories of our slide into fascism, but beneath the surface are a 100 other stories that together add up to real alarm. @caitoz.bsky.social has a few examples of those lesser stories.

Thanks @kkmoxa.bsky.social for pointing me to the @deanblundell.bsky.social substack. Dean has two pieces there that you need to read as your week lurches forward. The link here is to what he wrote today, 8/23, and he links to his post from yesterday for your clicking convenience.

“It’s one of those situations where the only available explanations are malice and incompetence,” Seth Stern, chief of advocacy at Freedom of the Press Foundation, told the Prospect. Which is what we've come to expect from this regime.

"This sad reality has democratic power and local control backwards. We should not be asking police what technologies are in use, we should know and have approved of them before our tax dollars were used to buy them. Local democratic accountability should be the baseline for buying new technology."

You can keep your current "smart" phone and just use it less. I can think of many times when I left the house and really needed only a phone, not a pocket computer.
