I work with data & I write code. I love plants. Center-left. Pro-🇺🇦🇮🇱. Pax Americana is a net good. I don’t favor trans women in women’s sports or prisons. Do not discriminate or denigrate trans folks. Culture wars hurt us. Trump is a cancer on democracy.

The way a bsky community outright threatened Jesse Singal on here and were never banned even temporarily by the @safety.bsky.app is troubling. Tankies and some TRAs have lost their minds. Democrats need to unequivocally move away from these fringe groups.

Trump is not the President elect. He's the assistant to the President non-elect.

Bluesky cannot think this sort of intimidation, threats of violence and targeted harassment are acceptable behaviors? I see a few accounts dedicated to just harassing other accounts. SMH. What’s the difference then between X and Bsky?

We are asking Ukrainians to defeat the armies of Putin and Kim Jong Un. In their efforts to do so, Ukrainians helped bring down Assad. Ukrainian resistance is one of the most stunning military achievements in modern history.

Vaccines are under attack like never before and pathogens just don’t stop emerging, so in related news... I’m honored to lead Vaccine & face these challenges w/ my co-Editors-in-Chief Florian & Ivan. I’m ready to elevate vaccine research, defend evidence-based policy, & stand up for public health!
Tweet from @Els_Vaccine: welcoming our incoming Vaccine Editors-in-Chief: @IvanHung2 (Ivan Hung), @angie_rasmussen (Angie Rasmussen), & @florian_krammer (Florian Krammer). Looking forward to work with them on establishing the journal further as a platform for evidence-based vaccination policies and critical vaccine research and development!

One thing I feel very strongly about w/r/t Bluesky is that the additional blocking features are a good thing -- but those same blocking features mean that banning people from the site is *less* important. If you don't like someone, just block them. Problem solved!

So in rural India, in a university campus where my father was a professor, his Head of the Department was Dr. Alexander. This was in the 1970s/80s. I was told that Uncle Alexander was a Syrian Christian. Now when I think of him my mind is blown! India truly is a melting pot 😊

Generally speaking, the left is more educated and actually argue on substance. But this intelligence also gives them a special ability to rationalize away anything. Not many normie lefties in the real world align with leftie activists. Not even with just stop oil and Greta. So what do we do?!

I see a lot of posts praising themselves for getting Jesse Singal thrown out of Bluesky. The more I looked into the accusations against Singal none turned out to be true. This was a while ago. The left has difficulty with dissenting opinions/research and thus is illiberal.

the reason this is important is that Trump has sold his re-election as proof that he is a god-king above all consequence who can do anything he wants already losing two nominations proves that is not true, and the sooner we can puncture that narrative and brand him a hubristic failure the better
