Is it weird that I entered this audiobook giveaway while I am reading this book AND listening to a previous book in the series? (Not simultaneously, that would be weird). It's just such a nice world to be immersed in.

Hearing @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social trash-talk Micah Beckwith, Indiana's hateful Lieutenant Governor, on @dearhankandjohn.bsky.social is feeding my soul ☺️

"To be a founder of democracy is not just to declare equality or the right to freedom. It is to hold accountable those who claim to believe in these words and to compel them to go beyond just making a declaration. It is to do the work of making word and deed real."

Lots to take in here. One thing that strikes me is how much hate Nader got for vote-splitting in 2000, but he doesn't even rank on this graph.

This, from the Holocaust Memorial Museum.

There are three key facts in the Holocaust Encyclopedia produced by the US Holocaust Memorial Museum. This is the second key fact:

What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.

They trained their model on a diverse body of excellent writing. . . and got the stupidest search tool I've ever encountered. Just another example of how the "plausible phrases" that LLMs spit out is NOT the same as "information."

Clear-eyed, evidence-based, historically inspired hope is my favorite kind.

This is a helpful locator of nonprofit news orgs. findyournews.org Also I prefer the term “corporate media” over “mainstream” because it emphasizes the ownership and who they’re beholden to.

For Blue Monday we can't think of anything more appropriate than this charming depiction of a man getting his face eaten off by a leopard. #MosaicMonday

A horrific image of a someone who seems to have his hands tied behind his back. A big cat (the predator kind, not the overfed pet kind) has jumped up at him and is devouring his face. Blood splashes on the floor.

Watching people say goodbye to TikTok and the communities they built there was really touching. But the next presidency is planning to wrench people from their homes and communities by force. Don't be distracted by deals to "save" TikTok. www.npr.org/2025/01/17/n...
