Lula @lulaoficialbluesky.bsky.social · 08/01/2026
Assinei hoje o veto integral ao projeto de lei que previa a redução de penas para quem atentou contra a democracia brasileira. 📸 Ricardo Stuckert
A imagem mostra o mesmo grupo de dez pessoas, em pé, dispostas lado a lado em um palco institucional. Ao fundo, permanece o grande painel azul com a frase “DEFESA DA DEMOCRACIA” em letras brancas e a marca do Governo do Brasil à direita. As bandeiras do Brasil continuam posicionadas à esquerda do cenário.

No centro da imagem, o presidente Lula está inclinado para a frente, assinando um documento sobre uma mesa de madeira clara. Ele usa terno azul e gravata vermelha, com expressão concentrada, segurando a caneta com a mão direita. Na parte frontal da mesa, há o brasão da República.

Atrás dele, todos os demais integrantes estão de pé e aplaudindo o ato. Da esquerda para a direita: a cabo da PM Marcela Pinno, fardada, bate palmas com postura firme; Guilherme Boulos, de terno cinza e gravata vermelha, aplaude com leve sorriso; Rui Costa, de terno escuro, aplaude com expressão séria; Janja da Silva, de blazer escuro e óculos, aplaude de forma contida; Lewandowski, de terno escuro, aplaude com semblante solene.

À direita de Lula, Geraldo Alckmin aplaude com postura ereta; Lu Alckmin, de vestido verde longo, sorri enquanto bate palmas; Gleisi Hoffmann, de vestido verde, também aplaude; e, na extremidade direita, Sidônio Palmeira, de terno escuro, aplaude com expressão serena.

A cena transmite solenidade, apoio coletivo e celebração institucional, marcando o momento formal de assinatura em defesa da democracia.

One of my favourite puzzle apps had a maths puzzle that was incorrect given the correct order of operations. I sent a message and for the last four plays, it seems like they corrected it. Changing the world, little by little.

Vi pouca coisa do voto do careca, estávamos fazendo o episódio sobre os ADEVOGADOS MALUCOS, mas o Brasil tá muito de parabéns, muito mesmo. O voto do Moraes já seria heróico sem o Trump na história, e nem com a inacreditável extorsão estadunidense o STF recuou um mísero milímetro, lindo demais.

I understand and agree with the critiques against genAI, but given how search engines suck now (I'm starting to wonder if they've ever been good), I wanted to find African political scientists working in my field and I should not have been surprised how many there are that I have never known about.

On the supposed map controversy, I was always taught Mercator and Peters and why they were different. It's just not that hard. I do think the Peters projection should be standard now. And that being taught both, as an undiagnosed autistic made me love maps.

A huge difficulty in being ADHD is wanting to do multiple things and being constrained to doing one at a time - and worse, when one thing reminds you of another. Slow things and "passive" things make you feel like you're not being proactive (especially in this shitty productive-minded society).

Another poorly made video about the dangers of offloading your thinking to GenAI, and ignoring the process while focusing only on the output. Drink chocolate milk responsibly 💜 (reuploaded because I forgot captions)

Nate Silver: 
Academic journals might be a lost cause but they'd probably be better if you had some non-academic practitioners serving as reviewers. Journalists have their problems too but they have much better bullshit detectors, for instance.

I'll admit, I was skeptical when they said Gemini was just like a bunch of PhDs. But I gotta admit they nailed it.
Google's Gemini AI tells a Redditor it's 'cautiously optimistic' about fixing a coding bug, fails repeatedly, calls itself an embarrassment to 'all possible and impossible universes' before repeating 'I am a disgrace' 86 times in succession

Using chatgpt for some random stuff and I can see how it just generally preys on people's desire for validation. The option for it to no longer suck up to you seems to be gone. "that's a great point!" "What an insightful question!" "You seem to be interested in doing critical analysis!"

Convenience Store Woman is an amazing mixture of autism and a patriarchal society. Also, my brand of autism includes translation and even though I don't speak Japanese, I'm pretty sure the translation is "foreign body", not "foreign object".

These past six months, I've thought a lot about how universal basic income would really allow me to balance research & domestic duties in a better way. Or to put it differently, UBI would allow me to actually do more work.

Happy St George' Day!
Cartoon for St George's day by Stephen Collins for the guardian. Script as follows:

Scene is outside a cave, ST GEORGE in armour etc is confronting the DRAGON while the CAPTURED PRINCESS looks on.

DRAGON:
So let me get this straight.

DRAGON:
You’re hoping to reinforce ‘helpless princess’ tropes…

DRAGON:
By publicly stabbing an *endangered animal* to death with a *sword*…

DRAGON:
So you can force a whole Syrian village to convert to Christianity….

DRAGON:
And become a nationalist icon for a colonial state…

DRAGON:
Through the cultural appropriation of ancient medieval dragon myths. 

DRAGON:
You’ve not been *online* very long, have you?

GEORGE: 
I have been quite surprised by the comments.

GEORGE’S SOCIAL MEDIA ASSISTANT [who is filming this encounter on an iPhone]:
I told you it’s problematic, George.

DRAGON:
Problematic? It’s a *bin fire*!

DRAGON:
OK. Here’s how you turn this round - 

CUT TO a YoutTube post called ‘MY JOURNEY (An apology)’. GEORGE is crying to camera, Dragon in background.

GEORGE: 
I am *so sorry* guys…
